Now, obviously it would depend on how shit your life is with your parents vs alone, but in my case I was much happier being poor but living with great roommates and experiencing just simple privacy for the first time.

I imagine they could if they knew exactly what you did and when, but if it doesn’t get discovered until later and nobody knows what happened, it would probably be a bitch to figure out

Early 20’s here with 65y/o parents 👋

Even more so, it’s turned into a hot button topic where people will be actively pissed of at you if you try to bring it up in discussion, calling it a “dog whistle” for nazi / anti-women ideology.

Why are companies allowed to prioritize immediate money over literally everything, but when an employee does it suddenly “work isn’t all about money”

That works so excellently for the military. You’re technically able to be called back in at any time, but you’re also allowed to drink when you could reasonably expect to have that time off.

And the clincher; you’re not allowed to be drunk on duty, so they can’t even say “no worries, I’ll pick you up” without implicating whoever ordered you in

I like seeing these moe communities, what does Moe mean though?

I’ve always heard it’s intelligence that tells us tomatoes are fruit, but wisdom tells to use it like a vegetable in cooking

Hey, I text sometimes!

I went on a deployment, got a nice gaming laptop for that. When I got home back to my desktop, I basically had no need for it so I hooked it up to my living room TV. At first I just played some controller friendly games on it, but now I use it as the entire media center with Stremio and qbittorrent and the likes. I use unified remote to have my phone as the remote.

That’s funny, I saw that first comment by toiute in the wild and thought it was really strange. Lemmy seems like such a waste of time as a platform to promote scams. Very low population (relative to other social media) and a mostly tech-savvy crowd.

Good work! Glad to know

Yeah I’d guess some sort of shared but relaxed apartment gym too. Looks a lot like mine, and too sparse to be a paid gym

They could worry about regulating the industry to prevent exploitation and trafficking, but God knows they’ll keep their hands out of that

I think OSINT, Open-source intelligence, would be more akin to trolling on social media. They’re the ones who crawl through Instagram and shit to ID Russian soldiers locations when they post selfies and the likes.

Breakfast pizza is pretty great, cheesy base sauce, scrambled eggs, bacon and breakfast sausage bits. Good stuff.

My toxic trait is that I just say things like “No, I just got a new video game and won’t be leaving my house for a few days”

I thought it was a good thing, but people hear it as “no, I have better things to do than spend time with you”

Oh-zero-hundred or zero-hundred if we gotta. Generally… Midnight lol

Army here, we always say 0000 for midnight, but honestly that’s probably just because it’s what our phones and watches call it. Perhaps it was different before electronic timekeeping was the norm.

When I get deja vu, it feels to me like I’ve dreamt of whatever is happening before, I’ve always pretty easily been able to say “oh it’s just deja vu” and move on.

But once, I woke up and told my wife about a strange dream involving very specific details of a situation with me and my brother. Along the lines of my brother throwing a beer can, it bounced off the trash can, bounced off me, then back into the trash can.

A few days later, my brother did exactly that. I was dumbstruck, even my wife was like “what the hell”

I’ve always assumed the issue is that I don’t need my chest and arms to walk around around all day. If they’re sore, I’m not constantly reminded :P
