I saw a documentary about a serial killer that called his victims “long pigs.” I guess in this case you’d be eating pork from actual pigs.

Wow, not only does Prime Day offer nothing good to buy on sale, it actually doesn’t offer the lowest price over a one-month period. I’m surprised OP found something interesting to buy for Prime Day. I don’t even bother checking it out because in the past, all I see is junk I don’t want or need.
There are lots of benefits to lurking. Nobody jumps on you with pedantic bull crap. Nobody tells you to just Google it. Nobody picks at every god damn little picky thing you say. Nobody bothers you. It’s a wonder anybody bothers to post or comment at all. Life is more peaceful for lurkers.
lemmy.world was an instance I tried and call me an impatient spoiled brat, but it’s not usable for me because it’s so darn slow. It’s much better to join a smaller instance. It doesn’t even have to be in the country you’re connecting from. sh.itjust.works is in Canada, I am in Western Europe, it’s snappy AF. And less toxic btw. kbin.social is pretty awesome, though. Loads up for me nice and fast with more content I want to see. I’ve settled on kbin as my place to go, but there are other instances that are just as fantastic. The lesson I learned: lemmy.world might be the big general instance and it might wish to claim to be “the front page of the internet” but it’s bogged down and too slow. It also wasn’t fun for me when I could actually use it. You know, because of the usual. Too much bickering and too much meta stuff. It’s much better to join the communities hosted on lemmy.world from another faster instance. You get snappier loading up of content and you avoid their whole home page which, at the moment, is just a meta victim.
You aren’t alone. I’m still trying to figure it out, too. First step was to settle on my go-to instance, which just today I’ve decided will be kbin.
I’m not subscribed to this magazine, yet it still shows up when I filter by “subscribed.” I’d like it to stop now. BTW, it’s not a dad joke. It’s just a terrible joke. Also, Kbin, stop showing me magazines I’m not subscribed to when I filter by subscribed. Thank you. Please. This magazine is the most irritating one I see when I filter by “subscribed” and I’m not subscribed to it. Also: gonna start complaining on all the magazines with comments like this about my personal problem with this web site. Might try to change my user name to Karen or something. I really need to speak to a manager.
