Read this at first as “if you bake it, he will come” and I was like “I dunno if I’d go that far. Depends on what kind of jam, to be honest”

I’m going to venture a guess that you’re a Dresden files fan, yeah?

This is why I pronounce gif and gnome with a zh sound at the beginning. Like zhazha Gabor’s first name. Zhnome, zhif

Oh fuck off with that pretentious ass pronunciation. I mean my God, just say “data” like a normal person! So tired of people trying to get all fancy with their pronunciations. Data is the only correct pronunciation. And while we’re at it, it’s “gif” not “gif” and “gnome” not “gnome”

I would buy this delicious jam filled galactic cookie if you bake it

A department store still had one of these when I was a kid, but it wasn’t used. It was, however, in occasional use when my brother was very little in the early 80s. My mom has pictures of him with his foot in it.

I have met these people. I am related to these people. Op might not be real, but for a fact there are people who genuinely believe this shit. It’s so incredibly frustrating to know they are so close to understanding, but so very, very far ever believing the explanation

Oh, God, I think I’d blocked that out. Lmao

… I also definitely didn’t think this was Vigo from Ghostbusters when I first saw the OP

Peter, can you explain this to me, please?

Frau Blücher shoots you

As some seriously considering changing my major (back) to anthropology, this intrigues me

That’s really cool. I love the idea of Lemmy instances being their own specific cultures, and the idea of an industry/field specific instance is honestly one of the coolest aspects of Lemmy. I’d love to see, like, artist based instances really take off, for example, or even like an instance specifically for fast food workers. Might help get some kind of union action going eventually if it really took off

Sadly I do not :(

I’m probably misremembering, but I swear our phonebook was at least 5 inches thick. We used collect the neighbors because they didn’t want them, and then me and my friends would stack them in the club house we chairs.

Mind if I DM?

I’m not the most familiar with the story, so many I’m remembering wrong. But I googled it to make sure before I posted that.

It’s honestly so freaking good. I really wish they’d make another season, but I don’t see it happening now that they’ve done Echos (which I haven’t seen yet, no spoilers!). My only complaint is the first season doesn’t have Felix’s voice actor, but season 2 does, and it’s fantastic.

Hey, fellow Tennesseean anarchist. I lived in Erwin for a while, as well as Kingsport. Closer to Knoxville now. Are you still local?

Unicoi county went for Bernie in the 2016 primaries. It’s a very small town that has gone through a lot of shit trying to claw it’s way out of horrendously bad politics in the 80s and prior. Bumpass cove, where I’m sure some of worst damage was, was the site of nuclear waste dumping, and has been the nucleus of a major swing to the left for a lot of people in the area. Right down the road is Johnson City, a very progressive college town. Dumping on the victims of a disaster because their neighbors, or even they, have shitty politics is a shitty thing to do. Maybe those school kids deserve to get shot because their grandpappy is a Republican? Yes, moments like this should be catalysts for change, but victim blaming isn’t the route to take to that.
