This is a weird attempt to put me down?? Obviously this is a personal number, I have no idea why you think I'm implying there is one formulas that fits every person in the world other than you just wanted to fight.

As an autistic dude, I feel like I know that it's weird too say, but I also feel like it makes sense. Like it's hard to quantify x% better, but I'm sure there is a number, for me at least, where if someone is that much better and would date me, I'd do it. It's not romantic to say, but it's true. And I've been dumped for other people twice so the same must have been true for them.

It just feels like one of the thousands of unspoken rules you're not allowed to talk about out of politeness. But honestly I would like to know that number for my SO.

I did this pretty much, except I did have a car and family, but I was stubborn and refused help from my family, so really just the car.

Get to a bigger midwest/ rust belt city (Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, St Louis, Cleveland) cost of living is low which is good for you, and in my experience not many people are moving there so tons of people are hiring at jobs with no requirements (I got a job in like 2 days). Try and get two jobs close to each other, probably downtown. You'll save up money way quicker and have less time to deal with living on the streets.

Find a public park, preferably one with those grills and a water fountain. You can cook food over a fire on thee grill, simple things like oatmeal or ramen. The one I stayed in had bathrooms that were open during the day (at night I just did my business in the woods, used a bag for number 2). It also had an old public building that was closed down but I could climb on top and sleep under the eaves out of sight and the weather. I kept my stuff in my car but I could have kept it there.

For electricity charge you're stuff at work, and get a backup battery, they're only like 30 bucks and it's super important. Libraries are a godsend for a million things, electricity and bathrooms chief among them. After 3 months you should be able to save enough for a shitty apartment and have the job history. Lie if you need to, they won't check more than your current job 9/10 times.

Yeah, but it was and you're wrong.

Multiple dictionaries define literally as figuratively, language changes

I'm literally the union representative for my job, and most of your other assumptions are also wrong. You're also doing an uncharitable reading of my post. I don't care about trans people means "I am not bothered by them" like I don't care whether we have hotdogs or hamburgers.

You're the kinda person that ruined that instance.

Man hexbear is such a shit show. When chapotraphouse was a sub I was on there near 24/7 for like 2 years, and it was the best online experience I've ever had. Then they migrated over to hexbear and it's like only the worst, most self righteous people from the community moved over. I'm literally the most left person I personally know by a wide margin, and I got called a reactionary and told to kill myself and then a mod agreed with them and banned me for a week over a blatantly pro trans comment that apparently wasn't pro trans in the right way. Like it literally said "trans people should be able to do whatever the fuck they want with their body, I don't care, it doesn't effect me" and like 5 people were like "you 'don't care' about trans people? Do the world a favor and fucking kill yourself, you're literally butchering trans comrades with your comment"

Even if he took the bullet out he would have seen it was indeed a blank. He would have had to take the bullet out and hold the barrel up to the light with the chamber open to see a previous bullet was stuck in the barrel.

Actors' job isn't to be as knowledgeable as a firearm consultant, hence why they hire one. The same way they trust any scene has been safely planned out before hand and the giant boulder is assumed to be fake and not a real rock, and the harnesses that suspend them weren't set up wrong so they fall and break their neck.

Tbh I don't get the hate for this model. I'd much rather be able to play these games for free and get to try them. Skin funded games mean I've played a lot of games for free, and I don't care at all about the skins (and I don't even get why people would) so I view the skins like a donation. If I really like the game I can spend a bit of money to get a skin to support them.

I've played league of legends for literally thousands of hours and never spent a cent on it. I have hundreds of hours on apex and also never spent anythings. It's way better than games where you spend like 20 dollars and then also need to spend either hundreds of hours or dollars to unlock 2/3 of the playable characters.

We gotta stop giving a fuck what the founding fathers did or wanted. They've been dead for centuries, they owned slaves and thought women couldn't vote. They couldn't even imagine drinking a baja blast or eating a pizza with fried chicken for a crust. The future is now, fuck em.

Joined in 2011, used it pretty much everyday for 12 years. Probably an average of 3+ hours per day, though I'd constantly find myself closing the app or website down just to open it back up 5 minutes later. Since the app closed down and I don't really use my desktop anymore I've just stopped using it. I will still Google questions from reddit occasionally if I can't find good answers elsewhere, but in the past 2 months I've maybe visited the site 10 times, and only for specific questions, never to browse the front page. I'd say it's been good for me overall and, I've cut down from like 3-4 hours a day on reddit to maybe an hour a day between here and lemmy.

I hoped to replace reddit with reading and while it hasn't been completely successful I have been getting like 3 hours of reading per week, which is a lot better than the like 30 minutes a week (maybe) I used to get. I also feel my attention span has gotten better. With less stuff to see I tend to actually read the majority/all of an article instead of just the headline or skimming the first few paragraphs.

So I have a paid membership at a small library (Mercantile Library) and they put on events and lectures every few weeks. I don't know if your average library would have something similar, I'm assuming many but not all would.

It was a lecture on parking, which I fully expected to be anti car but ended up not exactly being anti car so much as anti parking lots and spaces in downtown areas.

Idk why it posted the picture sideways

Man, I have envisioned something like this so many times. Personally, I think communal living but with everyone having at least a room that's entirely their own is the way to go. Ideally I'd imagine your personal room being somewhere between a bedroom and a living room, in terms of size. Big enough that you could have a few people over and retreat to your space away from the rest of your "community" comfortably. But I don't need my own kitchen or bathroom to be honest. I live in a 1 bedroom apartment and I often think about how much if the space is wasted most of the time. I use my kitchen for maybe an hour per day. 10 single apartments could share 3 kitchens without running into issues. Even if people tend to cook at approximately the same time, if anything that would probably make parts of cooking easier (though to be fair it'd also make parts harder). 1 person can stir while the other cuts vegetables, cook 2 servings of rice once instead of each cooking their own serving and washing their own pots/rice cooker/utensils. I often end up throwing away food because as a single person it goes bad before I can use it all. I'd love to have someone use this half a bag of cheese I needed for pizzas that's gonna go bad before I get to it.
