I say go extreme with the repair and then post a pic of it. Use Flex Seal on them! You’ll never have to worry about them ever falling apart again!

Obviously joking they’d be solid as a rock

I had a boss in an office that decided to have an Alice in Wonderland themed pot luck. She turned on the movie on repeat. Then she just never turned off the movie. It was on a screen on low volume right in front of my desk for weeks. She had an office, I didn’t. Eventually I sent her an email saying it was phycological torture after like week 3 to have the same movie playing on repeat for 8 hours Monday thru Friday.

I also worked at a video store once that we had to play the promotional DVD on repeat. It was about 2 hours long of footage over and over and we couldn’t turn it down.

I wasn’t allowed to have sugar because I was hypoglycemic as a kid. I’d get a burst of energy and then crash out. It almost put me in a coma once and I had to visit the hospital a few times.

I’d still sneak candy anytime I could!

As an adult, I don’t even associate candy with food. To my brain, it’s poison. I’m not like obsessive or anything but I don’t really eat sweets to this day even though I haven’t had any blood sugar problems as an adult.

I do eat some things with some added sugar of course but that’s about it.

Once I was dating a woman that had diabetes and to support her, we both cut out added sugar and carbs for 1 month. That was a crazy experience! I literally went through physical and mental withdrawals! Eventually my sense of taste became so different that I remember baby carrots tasting like they were dipped in sugar water! Once I stopped the diet it took weeks for me to start tasting things normally again.

Oh, speaking of sugar and taste, I had a similar experience with everything tasting like sugar when I came home from a 1 month vacation in Spain where I ate pretty normally. The amount of sugar added to everything in the US is fucking gross!

Poor Zuck. As a robot, he doesn’t understand why his workers are so upset. They still have a job. He cut the inefficiency, placed more work on the remaining employees, and probably tells them to pick up the slack by using AI or something like that…

He also probably saved billions.

In his robot brain: “Why aren’t they happy for me to succeed?”

No idea but if I woke up and saw I was abruptly in this area, I’d assume it’s Spain. Mainly because that’s the country I’ve been to a few times in the last few years that looks like this.

“Oh thank god! I’m back in Spain. Maybe living in the US was just a horrible nightmare!”

Thanks for the info! Because of you I looked into it again. Added it to my list and started it tonight.

I’m starting low and slow. Took 500mg tonight. I might change it up to mornings, we’ll see. I have noticed things like omega 3 are better for me personally at night. It makes me feel refreshed and clear the next morning. If I take it during the day I feel groggy until I take it.

Fake, cheap, and plastic with a huge price tag. What a perfect representation of the United States.

Would he have said anything at all or apologized if he wasn’t called out? I doubt it.

I’m convinced that Israel had something to do with it. He didn’t get in line when the rest of the clowns fell into place. Then his handler aka his wife tried to convince him to get with the program, he refused. Fighting ensued, they were going through marital problems at the time (text message evidence).

Then whatta you know, his now widowed wife takes over his business, goes on tour with fake ass tears (videos of her dropping them in before going on stage), and brings in none other than her ex boyfriend to run Toilet Paper USA with her…

We need an Internet 2.0 invite only. no bots, governments, or companies allowed.

I have heard of taking mushrooms for various things. I’m into some supplements but not like, bio hacker level or anything. I heard you gotta watch out for toxicity in those mushroom capsules / powders and they can fuck with your brain in some people? I don’t know a ton about it so do your own research but it was enough info for me to never add them to my “stack”.

I completely agree and I hate it. I pay attention to my dreams because sometimes they tell me things that I need to know or figure out. There’s a reason why “let’s sleep in it” is a thing. But I have issues. I don’t smoke weed or take anything strong to sleep (prescriptions make me feel groggy). Instead I take melatonin nightly. I pass out and don’t feel like shit the next day but the downside is I no longer remember my dreams. It’s one of the long lists of things that I need to work on when it comes to my mental health. But hey, at least I don’t find myself sitting on the edge of my bed having full blown panic attacks anymore…

I used to take Xanax but that caused an addiction. Plus the half life of the medication made me a different person when I was awake. So I told my doctor I didn’t want them anymore and changed to melatonin.

I truly wish I could sleep naturally. I miss remembering my dreams nightly. The good ones and the bad.

Yes, exactly! This was one of those! Like the 2 guys that didn’t show up and I asked about them, I was referencing a previous dream I had with these people that consciously I barely remember but dream-me remembers full well this whole world.

I agree with that! Usually my dreams consist of me being in situations with real people I know of they are realistic at all. It was just so weird to be thrown into someone else’s life that wasn’t mine for what felt like an entire day.

I usually take stuff to sleep and can’t remember my dreams. This is one of the first time I have naturally fell asleep and stayed asleep in well over a month!

Oh yeah I totally get it! The only reason I’m in the “know” is because I work in IT. I used to love computers growing up but uh… Now that I do it for a career, I don’t have much interest in computers as a hobby. I used to lie at work in entry level positions saying stupid shit like “computers are my life!” Because I thought that’s what I needed to do to “fit in”. But, these days I’m just honest. When I get off work I don’t fire up my gaming pc (don’t even have one), I fire up my grill!

Glad you like it here! I’m pretty new myself. My only issue is there’s not much traffic sometimes but what makes it so “real” is how empty it feels sometimes. You know people read your comments instead of getting buried in thousands of bot comments.

Yeah agreed. But if you’re in a 3rd world country or some broke teenager that money goes farther. Bot farms buy “legit” accounts then influencers pay them for likes and interactions on social media platforms fooling The algorithm into thinking the content is popular then putting the bought content into real human’s social media feeds. I have watched YT videos on how the stuff operates in the past. It just goes to prove that the internet is fake af. Going viral can be bought. Algorithms can be manipulated. It’s all bullshit.

Lemmy seems pretty legit so far though! I’m pretty new here but it seems like a small corner of the internet that’s not yet taken over by 90% bots!

…yet…

I checked my first one (that was banned later) once out of curiosity. 8ish years over 100k karma and it was like $20? You’d have to really grind to make any money like having a bot farm or something. Granted I never actually checked my account specifically, just similar accounts with similar age and karma.

This was years ago that I looked. I wouldn’t be surprised if the number has gone down since then.
