I wish Lemmy natively supported the tagging feature you mention but I’m otherwise pretty happy with the web interface. I generally keep app downloads to a minimum. Which app do you use, I hear people mention the tagging feature more and more lately.

I’ve seen a couple of your posts before and I wonder if working in customer service, maybe just as a cashier at a convenience store might help you. Its mindless, menial work but it allows for short interactions with a lot of people. You get to see your community in a different light and meet people you wouldn’t otherwise. Maybe eventually you will find your voice and gain the confidence and a few friends that will help you network into better situations. Maybe going to the gym would also help, getting proper cardio and strength training did a lot for my mood and physical self esteem. Also, you are only 35, you will be young-ish for at least another decade if you take care of yourself.

Also, you appear to live in Europe, why not save your money for a train trip to Amsterdam if never being with someone sexually is causing you so much frustration? I’m sure at least some of those workers have experience with people like yourself and would be patient enough to try to help, maybe chat about it too. Honestly just talking openly with someone like that about your situation, someone whose job it is to approach someone intimately might help. This is probably a terrible idea but it is an option, if you feel like you don’t have others it might be worth considering.

Loneliness and depression play tricks on you, keep your eyes open for possibilities and a year from now your outlook could be very different.

Crassus approves.

If you’re always reparking your car you run a risk of a collision with a distracted driver. If someone sees a car going into a spot its not unreasonable to think they’d assume the car is out of play and can be ignored. When you back out to adjust back between the lines eventually one of those times someone won’t be paying attention to you.]

A less crowded gym because more people cancelled their memberships? Nice!

Stable? Go for biology, you and I are living creatures and that’s not going to change any time soon. Appreciate the wonder of being alive, respect your needs and wants. Your mind and body are bafflingly complex but will be your lifelong home and companion. Consider that most/all nonhuman living things just live their life and never ponder things like this. Treat yourself and others around you well and enjoy the life you have.

Venmo is owned by PayPal, but I couldn’t find any information about if similar Venmo TOS changes are planned or already in effect.

I mean if you have a usb lying around, putting ubuntu on it and trying is free. Worth a shot, you could get access to the drive too if it works. If that doesn’t work you could still bring it into the shop to get worked on.

Authenticity is dying?

It does, I haven’t placed the order yet but I’ll check back in when/if I do with how it turns out.

After some more trying (logging in with my email rather than my mobile #) it seems like it’s working now. I appreciate the encouragement, I was ready to give up!

Prepackaged antipasto gave me days of horrible indigestion

Arguably blackpilled folks are less problematic than incels since they have given up looking and perhaps developed a better attitude toward women (paradoxically) while incels hold a shred of toxic hope that their tradwife will swoop in and save them and that hope eats them alive. Note: I am not a scholar of either community’s worldview

Despair is also a key party platform. The more hopeless someone is, the more likely they are to invite catastrophic change like Trump promises.

This is cool, keep adding more features. Not sure if my comment wishing this existed inspired you but nice to see a proof of concept!

I’m not on Bluesky, what downsides are you seeing in their app?

Non-compliant patients who “do their own research” on the internet.

In the US they advertise drugs directly to us, we’re expected to do our own marketing-guided research to speed along the transaction.

3.8 ounces? Yikes, that does seem low.

Wait, are cocoa pods beans? What even is a bean?
