MiddleWeigh, to memes in UBI works too

8000 a year? That would be a huge help. Like it would alleviate almost all of my burdens.

Scrip is kinda low key a thing again. My SO works for wawa and there is definitely some scrip vibe. They have a company store, a points reward system, they will put you through school if you take classes that benefit the Corp, and the only way to move up is to basically bootlick management at weird company festivals.

It all has this very dystopian vibe of “everything within the corporation eco system” and my SO is a very principled women who is shy and kind and she refuses to take a step to elevate herself within the Corp, but getting a union going is pretty hard where we’re at, everyone is very much of the boot tasting, welfare queen bad variety.

MiddleWeigh, to asklemmy in What's the worst thing you've ever smelled?
@MiddleWeigh@lemmy.world avatar

Human feces/raw sewage in a stagnant, humid, concrete structure with poor circulation and no means of escape.

Also my dad has this little puss hole on his back that you can perpetually squeeze the most foul smelling stuff out of. It was a family event to squeeze in wonder.

MiddleWeigh, to RedditMigration in I don’t understand people who say they can’t figure out Lemmy or KBin

That's cause over time people have added communities to your instances repitoire over time. Network effect, essentially, making it easier for each new user. Tbh, if new users are on a bigger instance this should be a non issue.

I never even heard of reddit when I was introduced to rif. Only reddit I know. I didn't really try others, didn't need to. It was perfectly simple. Thank you and now on to new and better things, hopefully

I haven't had a problem ftmp. I sort by all>new/top day/hot/active and subscribe to what interests me on a whim.

Then if there is something specific, say poetry, I type "poetry" or "poet" in to the search and I get all the communities with that in the name. Subscribe. All of em.

Over time I naturally have a feed of my own making.

But right now, I am just sorting all and collecting communities and talking to people, and when finally there is more people, I will sort by subscribed.

I think the issue is just early stage social media being built ground up, and we're all still figuring out what this place is even gonna be.

MiddleWeigh, to AskKbin in What’s one thing that you wish you had known when jumping over from Reddit?
@MiddleWeigh@lemmy.world avatar

I didn't know anything. I clicked a random link on reddit tbh. I just been picking away and enjoying it.

I guess the one thing would be what the actual difference between kbin and lemmy is. Other than that, it's pretty straightforward imo.

MiddleWeigh, to asklemmy in What are your "weirdest" pizza toppings or other weird food combos?
@MiddleWeigh@lemmy.world avatar

My father just introduced me to the joy of putting banana peppers on my slices. I don't really like peppers ftmp, but damn is it good on just a plain slice.

Good job on doing what you felt. It is obvious, but those have become the hardest things these days.

MiddleWeigh, to asklemmy in What do you think of people making memes/jokes about the recent Titan tragedy?
@MiddleWeigh@lemmy.world avatar

People die. Life is messy. Take it for what it's worth: a good laugh once in a while.

Those dead people are now complete.

They are human, sure. We all are.

I think they don't mind personally.

MiddleWeigh, to asklemmy in I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack?
@MiddleWeigh@lemmy.world avatar

If you don't wanna partake in illegals ie opioids, you can give immodium a shot. It's anti diarrhea stuff. Just take more than it says lol it will def stop you up. I would also just eat bare minimum. Trail mix or smth. Also drink less water.

MiddleWeigh, to asklemmy in What is something good happening in your city/town/local area?
@MiddleWeigh@lemmy.world avatar

A tractor supply just went up. It's a glorified hardware store. Great. Just slightly better than ace hardware 🥱.

They might potentially take a state recreational area and turn it into national park which im unsure of tbh. There's no infrastructure, they'd charge (barrier), more people to kinda ruin what pristine woodland we even have.

I'm sort of indifferent about it, undecided at least, and it depends how or if it goes down at all.

Otherwise, ain't shit happening here and that's why I live here.

I'll take a gravity power I guess. Manipulation of gravity in every sense.

MiddleWeigh, to asklemmy in I am learning acrylic painting. What is the best paint for scumbling?
@MiddleWeigh@lemmy.world avatar

I haven't painted in a long time..but perhaps like a gouache, or just get really good at dry brushing?

I think the thing your avoiding is the thing you should learn. Consistency = skill.

Learn the touch yknow.

@MiddleWeigh@lemmy.world avatar

Yea each paint is different. Even different colors can be slightly different.

I think you just have to paint lots and lots of clouds tbh.

I am OK at painting, like I know the process, and used to be pretty into it, but I am out of the loop, sorry.

Painting is very tactile. There's little separation between you and the medium. You just have to do it a bunch yknow.

Just thought I'd pop in.
