Lemmy users who struggle with depression, what need is unfulfilled in your life? What could be done practically to change your situation?
  • Agreed. Also we all have our eyes on so much these days (we see ALL the news from everywhere) there is no way that doesn't affect people. Plus here in the US, the divide between rich and poor grows. The stress of seemingly innocuous every day life has it's toll and I don't think a lot of people recognize that in them selves yet.

    I totally agree, mental health for everyone even for people who are healthy!

  • Hey thanks so much!!!

  • Game recommendation time
  • Just recently bought Twilight Inscription (single player games) and I love it. Favorite type of game is deck builder. Favorite game of all time is Cosmic Encounters.

  • Yeah I get that. I'm in the same boat about making friends. I'm great at it in situations where I see them everyday. But working from home... So I'm trying to meet up with a gaming group at a store once a week. Monday is my first official day so I'll see how it goes

  • This is very very true! I take medication and it's great but it's not enough. Mental health support (therapy) is so important

  • It's different as I grow. But right now, affordable mental health support and a friend.

    I moved to a new state and have no friends and work from home.

    I'm trying my best but... I wish it was easier

  • What did "that one" person do to you which made you cut them out of your life?
  • Family started to make fun of my pronouns. I'm just tired of people choosing to be cruel for cruel sake. So I deleted Facebook, essentially cutting them out.

    My mom refused to use pronouns and I'd given her 6 years to learn and grow, cut her out.

    In the past, a coworker on purpose set up a birthday for one of my best friends and didn't invite me. They made up super weird reasons why I wasn't invited. I realized he was manipulative... I cut him out...

    Another co-worker was a friend but then one day he wanted to start touching me. I don't like being touched. I kept asking him to stop, he did it more. Til one day he pushed me into a cold case (we worked at a grocery store). I cut him out.

    Regardless of who I cut out though, there is ALWAYS room to come back if they change and grow up.

    I'm still hoping my mom will before she passes... : /

  • Twitter is now X
  • I enjoy reading about this change because everytime someone writes something like. Look what x did. My first thought isn't of Twitter or any social media, it's: "who's x?" (As in replacement variable)

    So stupid to rebrand like that. Oh well, never used Twitter anyways

  • Twitter is now X
  • Yeah that's what I grew up learning and my mom taught me that x is kisses o is hugs. Til that it's seen and way!

  • Early disappointment
  • I suppose it has to do with being stateless.

    I just loved learning about lambda calculus.

    I think the idea is to remove complexity by never dealing with state, so you just have one long reduction till you get to the final state...

    But someone who's more into lambdas etc should speak about this and not me (a weirdo)

  • Early disappointment
  • I loved learning lambda calculus (though for me it was super hard)

    [L4L] looking for friends in Michigan

    Hi I'm Michelle (they/them) and 38.

    I know it's a long shot but I'm looking for friends. To play board games, get coffee, ya know, to get out and do stuff!

    I'm a software engineer, artist and composer among a few things. I also play video games.

    Dating/making friends app in the fediverse?
  • So what I've seen, there are already a lot of home grown dating apps, the problem is that they don't have a huge user base.

    For example I joined a nerd focused dating app and got one message a month later (I also reached out to a lot of people).

    So I think it can be done but the real question is how to generate a large enough user base to make it useful...

  • Splitting the rent.
  • If a partner moved in with me they absolutely would help pay my mortgage. But I wouldn't lie that I didn't own the place. Just set standards of what I expect

  • How many times have you been nearly hit by a car as a pedestrian or cyclist?
  • One lady hit me and got my bike lodged in her car. She then continued to stare me down and slowly drive forward, dragging me with her...

    I got free from her within like 30 seconds but it was so scary
