Texas woman traumatized after being forced to carry an unviable pregnancy to term
  • Given the options of “drive, fly, or take a bus somewhere” or “shit out a tangle of goop and limbs you schlep around for 8 months” then you can’t really blame anyone but yourself if you choose b. Additionally if you can’t afford $400 and a round trip plane ticket to Las Vegas to get it scraped out then what the fuck are you even doing having a kid in the first place?

  • Do you believe Lemmy/Mastodon can become mainstream and fully replace their centralized counterparts?
  • How much horrific awkward teenage shit did Reddit have to go through to get where it is now? Bacon narwhals at midnight, rage comics, bullying an uninvolved brown kid into suicide after the Boston bombings, reluctantly removing CP adjacent subs only after being called out on cable news, the /r/fatpeoplehate nonsense, /r/antiwork mod humiliating xirself on Fox News, the woody harrelson rampart ama, fumbling the bag by firing Victoria, probably 20 more.

  • YSK: While you're on Lemmy/Kbin/Fediverse, you're not "the product" but you're also not "the customer".
  • What you’ve written sounds clunky and weird. It’s like, you can embody something, and you can be living proof of something, but saying someone is “trying to embody living proof of [something]” is a mistake an alien pretending to be human would make. 😉

  • I love me some grassy trams
  • In all seriousness I have commuted into a major city for various gigs throughout my life, including driving in at trades rush hour (5-6am), driving in at normie rush hour (7-10am), and driving in at off hours (around 11am-12pm) and a one hour drive leaving at 5am would be a two hour drive leaving at 7am and it would be a 30 minute drive at 11:30am. Taking the train in generally took about an hour +- 20 minutes depending on getting to the station, finding parking, and catching the correctly timed train. The delicious baked-in luxury of being alone and going wherever you want in a car instead of having to pile in another fart tube with 100 other people also rules.

    The real answer is: it’s complicated and painting everyone with the same brush is kind of shitty.

  • I love me some grassy trams
  • One time I did all my grocery shopping for the month by train but I had to bring six friends to help carry everything home and I had to pay for all their tickets there and back. I bought them all dinner for wasting hours in their day to do what one person could trivially accomplish with one car. It actually ended up being cheaper to just pay the premium for instacart and tip the driver.

  • I love me some grassy trams
  • I take the express train. I don’t want my one hour commute to be a two hour commute because they stop for five minutes every 8 minutes and have to get back up to speed. I already have to wake up ten minutes earlier to take the light rail, change trains to a local, take that three stops to a hub, and change to the express train. I should just buy a car.

  • Im very excited for Lemmy. It seems a bit rough around the edges, but I'm very hopeful for it. That being said...
  • Fuck your dick you shitty pissbanana. Let people talk about things that are going on and let the conversations develop naturally. If you really want to control what people can and can’t talk about go back to Reddit and start your own sub where you can aggressively moderate until you’re happy with your finely cultivated echo chamber.
