Wasn’t sure if I should share this or not, but I wrestled with it in my head for like five minutes and here we are.

My buddy has been in so many lopsided relationships. Like dating moms who are still married and he’s just the side piece. Or dating a foreign girl who visits him in the US, but refuses to leave her marriage in Spain.

We went on vacation together. My wife, kids, and my buddy. And after a lot of consideration, explored the red light district and fooled around with the sex workers.

I don’t know what happened fully. But after our trip, he had this fire in his eyes… He shared how he opened up the workers and how my wife & I’s normal vacation squabble made him realize his prior relationships weren’t healthy. And he’s committing himself to finding a real relationship.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

Shame. The game looked great. But the beta state and bugs kept me from committing.

Not certain how the company plans to fix all of that with a smaller staff.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

If it does work, that’s pretty cool!

I’d love to know if like, the lemmy instance catering towards Americans upvotes me, but the lemmy instance catering towards Europeans downvote me.

Late-90s, early-2000s McDonald’s was peak.

Dollar menu. Pokemon toys. Some has N64 play areas.

I sometimes replace my butter on toast with eggs with applesauce on toast with applesauce. I call it a pile of sadness.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

I was shocked to see this post. I honestly thought it was dead after 2015.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

I work in tech so at least 80% of people play video games. Either hardcore or casually, on their phones, PCs or Steam deck. The other 20% don’t play video games because they’re busy with life, like they just had kids.

I feel like if a boomer-minded take like, “Vidja games are for kids yuk yuk”, literally everyone would rip into them.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

By responding, regardless of what you say… you’ve given them information that you exist as a human.

I once watched a woman walk into a supermarket just openly being pregnant. Fortunately she behaved, because some of the other folks were concealed pregnant.

It’s one real news piece, followed by 20 people’s response to that news piece, followed by manufactured drama about those opinions, over and over again.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

Sorry for your loss.

They will now be part of the boomers being fools community.

My wife’s parents went crazy lead brained. They went pure antivaxxer and said if we don’t want our kids to have grandparents, then get vaccinated. We lolled and said, “Bye”.

It’s been four years now.

They now pretend like they didn’t say that every few months by sending us gifts and cards, that we promptly give away to charity.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

Thats going to be every single one of them.

Musk really fucked around here.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

25% of people makes up a quarter of the population!

Potatos_are_not_friends,

Nah, I don’t need to act dumb. I’m dumb already

Potatos_are_not_friends,

Ooof! That “View on GitHub” button made me believe it was the real one

Potatos_are_not_friends,

Makes sense.

Its literally a weekend job and a few bucks to quickly set up a fake site. Even with a single $20 donation are you already recouping your losses.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

That comes off as a personal preference, which depending on the type of person, will walk all over you.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

This isn’t a good idea. This is just burying the issue rather than confronting it.

They will bring it up later.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

A firm statement is fine in my opinion.

“It sounds like a lot but we need to focus on the work and this isn’t something that’s helping.”

If it continues, a direct message of “Not my thing. I really don’t have a dog in this race.”

Potatos_are_not_friends,

I can’t remember which American jingoism movie it was about Iraq, but it had a scene like this.

The brown people are like, “You Americans are only here to take our oil!”

And the bootlicking soldier was like, “No, we’re here to make you rich.”

And while it sounds cool at the time, that was a load of BS.
