Martha and John Kent may not have changed the world, but Superman sure did

It’s an older meme, so it’s possible OP just googled a quick template and didn’t realize it wasn’t the original.

Actually, you’re right. You said I had ASPD, not ASD. Sorry about that.

I know about 5 different people’s names at work. If I meet someone new, I forget someone else’s name.

Cause that’s how brains work.

Hey, Abigail here. I just want people to know the reason this guy got banned is likely because of a deleted comment not included in that thread. OP called me autistic for not liking politics. THAT kind of behavior is not acceptable on lemmy.blahaj.zone, so I reported the comment and let Ada handle it. Ada tried in good faith to reason with OP but it was clear they just wanted to fight. So yeah, they got banned. Ada’s a fantastic lady who’s been great at keeping the trolls at bay.

I really like this analogy!

My brother and I live together. A lot of people think it’s weird but it’s been great for both of us. I worked part time while going to college while he footed most of the bills. Now he’s a full time student and I’m paying for everything. We get all the household benefits of a married couple (shared chores, lower food bill, cheaper housing per person, mixed finances, etc) without the risks.

Success in early adulthood heavily depends on having familial support, especially from your parents. We don’t have that, but together we can still pool resources and do better than if we were alone.

Nothing will compare to last week when I was listening to a podcast in the car. The GPS will pause podcasts instead of turning down the volume. So I heard “well, this looks like a MUR - turn right on baker st - DER!”. I bust out laughing all by myself in the car.

There was some pseudoscience going around a while back about people can be left brain or right brain thinkers. Supposedly it came down to your dominant hand - meaning lefties are artistic and righies are logical. It’s been thoroughly debunked but people still say it to me fairly often.

this hyper-attractive girl

I swear, it’s actually really difficult to make ai women that AREN’T yassified. Is all the training data for what “real” women look like from Instagram?

Is there a way to have the gif automatically play?

Depends on how you’re browsing lemmy - I’m on liftoff and they auto play. Maybe check your app’s settings?

Also, is there a way to add a gif from a keyboard app like GIPHY?

Afaik Lemmy’s markdown is text only, so you’ll have to get the url from your app. I can’t get it for my phone, but there might be a long tap then “view in browser” or “get url” option like I have on their website.

FYI, the format for an imbedded gif is ! [] (https://i.imgur.io/Thsxdtu.gif) without the spaces

@ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone fyi, the defederation list may need to be updated due to the upcoming instance migrations.

This playlist better include “microwave popcorn” by Bo Burnham 🍿

I agree. Imo a lot of the hate for reddit reposts is because repost bots are either posting content too quickly or pulling from new instead of top. Lemmy’s not ready for an influx of bad content, so you gotta curate it.

I’ve slowly been rebuilding https://lemmy.ml/c/dccomics at 1-2 posts a day. That way there’s always something in top/day but it won’t flood a user’s feed. I’m also not reposting top/day from reddit in case there’s users that still use both.

This is brilliant. Instead of advertisers making sponsored posts that are ignored or trying to sneak an ad into a community, they can outright buy engagement. Utilize subliminal advertising, then advertisers buy their own “tips” (or whatever they end up being called) and they get back a portion of the money spent. There’s been an uptick in those types of posts lately and reddit’s just leaning into market trends. Not to mention that bots can earn real money by reposting top/all time content!

Is there any way to see the true subscriber count of a community while logged in?
