I can’t wear my glasses around people because I get an overload of eye contact. I mostly wear them for driving or cycling.

It’s getting the concrete boots!
It’s like every tyrant in history can’t remember this one thing.

For all we know, Trump was the mastermind behind Epstein vacations.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•When a parent's primary/preferred language differs from their child(ren)'s primary/preferred language, who should have the most "obligation" to learn more of the other's preferred language?
9·7 months agoInside is theirs, and you need to be less illiterate. Maybe do a course and put in time at home with mom.
Outside is yours. Maybe your mom needs to take a few more courses. If not just abide the rule.
Exceptions are when company clearly has a primary language.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•The richest people in the world are morally bankrupt
4·7 months agoElon Musk has always lived in privilege of some variety, and generally sees his wealth as his due. Morals come from everyone’s pain I guess. I can’t be rich without other people being elevated too. I couldn’t do that to people in the same boat (or lack thereof) as me.
Some rich people get that. Like Bezos’s ex. She kinda hates the rich.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•How do I get a circle on mastodon (or any other non-thread social media)
4·7 months agoHaving used Mastodon for a few years, I would say that it doesn’t work like that. There’s no reason to expect interaction unless you bring an IRL group, or stick close with a popular niche topic. Most people I interact with have an agenda, and don’t need me for anything other than boosting their posts. Some are intensely hostile to anything other than standalone posts. Anyone replying across the platform is labelled a ‘reply guy’ and basically dissed and shunned. “Ultimate cancelling”, I think.
Most of Mastodon doesn’t want to support the rest of Mastodon AFAIK. There isn’t a broad society with popular encouragement as you had with early Instagram, Twitter, and Reddit.
At the outset of popularity for the platform, a lot of long term users were very upset about popularity. To the day, those users are trying to discourage other people. If you post, they might even counter-post as cleverly as possible to attach disdain to anyone interacting with you.
Don’t take any of it personally. It’s not about you. Luckily you’re not special in this regard. Post there if you want to, but never expect something beyond passing jerks.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why don't compasses have just two Cardinal directions (North, East, -North, -East)?
8·7 months agoThis is basic coordinate usage. Negative latitudes are South. And 180 or -180 is half a planet away from the prime meridien. West of England are negative longitudes.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What's the best way to answer someone who accuses you of being a bot because they don't like what you have to say?
2·7 months agoGive a contextual answer, and let them keep their paranoia beyond that. Not your monkeys, and definitely not your circus.
Mostly, I don’t shop. So, when I do, I can choose according to ideals. Most of my searches are at thrift first, and the second hand. I never consider credit. And, I always shop for discounts.
Beyond that I look for a local with a healthy business and prices that don’t seem absurd.
There are a few local businesses that make no sense. I don’t understand how they can keep their doors open with the prices they charge. I avoid those, and stick with locals who work hard.

Fediverse@piefed.social•Mastodon creator shares what went wrong with Threads and ponders the future of the fediverse
18·7 months agoEugene’s ambivalence to deeply hurtful business operations is off-putting. People aren’t merely mistrustful. They’re harmed and fleeing in some cases. Zuckerberg’s choices are sociopath choices.
Every dictator ever was basically mainstream. That’s what it usually means. Genghis and Kublai Khan were mainstream in their time too.
It’s amazing how these people are using the Star Wars Rubublic’s tragedy as a how to manual.
This is some dark Emperor BS!
Pattie boy doesn’t see rear vision in 2D world, sorry!
