I rage nearly every day when a bag either rips beside the seal, or has such garbage perforations that you have to use scissors on it regardless of their presence.

After some digging I’ve learned I’m misremembering it being Homey, and it was instead the 1991 film Shakes the Clown.

Realized this having been Homey is a false memory, and found out it was Shakes the Clown.

I’ve come to learn from other responses that this was likely not a Homey movie, but I’ve always believed since childhood that it was. Someone said it might be called Vulgar (2000), but that seems too late in my life to correlate to the movie we saw. I’m currently digging to figure out what it was. I swear the men sitting around talking about pussy were clowns.

Edit: Looks like it was Shakes the Clown.

Homey the Clown Shakes the Clown. Dad took that shit out after three lines. Maybe. The movie started with a group of clowns/men discussing their pussy preferences.

Mastodon overwhelmed me. I hopped on the website and had no idea what I was looking at. I didn’t understand federation. I basically had the option of what niche hobby to join on Mastadon and no indication that I would he able to access a broader forum, so I said “Well, this fucking sucks.” and left.

Threads and BlueSky are likely as accessible as making an account and you’re done.

It truly is night and day. I still see a bit of clashing in the bowels of political posts. Usually a MAGA being downvoted to -48, or various subspecies of liberals having it out, but next to that it’s certainly a lot more tame and respectful.

Frig off, Berb!

Reddit was bad for my mental health. Especially from 2016 onward. If it wasn’t toxic or aggressive people, it was an endless onslaught of all the shitty things happening in the world politically. I don’t even live in the States anymore, and I was still angry every single day. I still see some of it on Lemmy and it’s good to be informed, but Reddit’s algorithm was tailored specifically for my anger. The platform is all ego.

I’m either much nicer here, or people are far less confrontational. I’ve said it a hundred times, but every time I receive a notification on Lemmy I brace myself for another senseless asshole. But it’s almost always positive on here.

My wife and I spent $350 altogether for the paperwork and an officiant. We eloped beneath a tree in a park with her family present, and afterward I returned my dress shirt to Walmart for a refund. I will never regret how low-class that was.

We’ve been married now for ten years.

Dollar store seasonal garland. By the time it’s up in your home, it looks about 2/3 as real and costs 1/10 the price.

As I also saw mentioned, medicine. Buy it purely on price by volume and disregard the brand entirely. The only medicine I buy name-brand is Flonaise, because most generic brands of fluticasone spray have the most low-functioning applicators I’ve ever seen.

My wife (bless her sweet heart) for years thought the song said “outdoor cookin’ starts today”.

They come in two power settings: high, and low. And both of them will rip your dick off.

Valheim. My homestead is beautiful and densely forested. I’m well equipped and have provisions for days. I’m good.

Is that the actual actress? If so, how the fuck did she wind up here?

I see @MyOpinion@lemm.ee constantly, and it trips me up every time because when I met my wife online twelve years ago, her username was MyOpinionIs. Not sure that they’re famous, though…

I think it’s the blue checkmark that always draws my eyes.

I flipped on bees a few years back and stopped being afraid of them altogether. I get relatively close to them now while weeding my garden and they pay me no mind. Wasps and hornets will always be enemies, but I won’t air my true thoughts on them, as the last time I did on Lemmy I was downvoted greatly and reviled.

That’s wild. I had no idea.

South should dropped some fully-charged cell phones loaded with media and Wikipedia entries.
