Hi Lisa.

Hi Super Nintendo Chalmers.

I’m lernding

Instead this will just encourage the more.

“We wouldn’t scam us again! He learned what he did wrong the first time!”

This image always makes me so sad.

Shouldn’t have fucking been there.

You’re not murdering animals for entertainment if you feel things like empathy or shame.

So do you generally just shit in the compost directly? Or do you bring it out in a bag?

You spread it through yours as well.

I bet a majority of the people in the house understood the majority of her gaming quotes, therefore proving that games go beyond the screen but become part of everyday lexicon. And companies removing games removes culture.

Hey! I grew up Catholic too! Left the church when I was 8, found agnosticism when I was around 19.

Honestly? I don’t think there is a way to “measure god”, or “gods” or whatever higher power. As a theist, it exists beyond existence. It’s something that exists between lives. I believe in reincarnation at least in a spiritual form, so you meet <Insert Higher Power Being Here> between lives. I believe that if a “higher power” actually exists, it exists beyond any living creatures’ ability to study it. You can feel it, it can exist as a presence but you can never know it’s there. You cannot study it or know what/where/who/how many it is.

It’s why I fell so hard for agnosticism. The idea that there might be something and there might not be, and we have no way as creatures to ever know that. So it’s up to us individually to identity within ourselves how we feel. You fall under the atheist side and I fall under the theist side. I’ve always felt if there was a way to prove a god exists, that’d be neat and I’d totally believe it. But we don’t and I still believe one exists. You’re the opposite where you don’t believe one exists, but are still open to the idea that one could. We share the same world view from different sides of the coin.

I’ve always seen agnosticism as the “scientific” approach to faith. I don’t need to know that there is a god or gods. I just believe there is, but if science ever proved once or the other I’d side on that research. Same with you on the opposite spectrum. But I’m not going to let others… Whether it be preachers or neighbours, or a fucking book dictate what I should believe. I believe what I choose to.

And as someone who loves knowledge and science and space and all that shit, the more and more we learn about the universe, the more and more “proof” there probably isn’t any measurable “God” for us here on Earth. Which goes back to be belief of an inter-spiritual deity/deities between the lives our spirits live.

Like… Our moon radiates detectable energy. It’s gravitational pull creates the tides here on Earth, a hunk of rock rotating around our planet. Radio waves in space can be traced back to stars exploding light years away. It’s not God making them, it’s the universe around us just existing.

He still said it. I don’t care if he said it to a group of clowns at a birthday party, the Vice President of the USA just admitted publicaly that he’s happy civilians in Ukraine are dying because they reneged on an international promise.

This is 100% why I hope no country, no matter what happens in the coming decade or more, ever gives the USA an ounce of trust ever again. A century of good will, ally-ship, and negotiation completely pissed away in less than a year. Why should ANY of us ever trust the USA to hold up any ounce of promise ever again?

Oh Putin your dick tastes almost as good as Donald’s!

I’d love to have a video of him bleeding out like I do Charlie Kirk.

I’m a theist agnostic. I believe in some sort of higher power, whether an individual, multiple, or even just spiritual energy. I firmly believe that organized religion as a whole is bad for humans. It removes the ability to question and think critically of things. You’re supposed to believe this. You’re taught to believe that. You’re not choosing to believe in something, you’re being told to.

So never.

Wakes up

I should open up Lemmy while I make coffee

Sees this travesty of a headline

Well, back to bed for me!

If only there were certain channels you joined that those names would still be there and you could just request access again on a new account and reunite with those friends.

Alas, that is just a shooting star.

In a regular society? Yes. But this is America we’re talking about.

Because fuck you that’s why.

Oh look, an extra $20 in my bank account! Thanks…Not Microsoft

You’re absolutely right.

However, if I can consume said content without giving money to companies who are going over and above to be anti-consumer? I’ll 100% take advantage of that.

If YouTube wants to go out of their way to make it harder for me to watch legally, I’ll go out of my way to watch illegally. You think I pay for 17 different streaming services for TV shows me or my partner want to watch? Fuck all that we pay for IPTV.

Pirates like me don’t want to have to jump hoops to watch your shit. But all these streaming platforms, Youtube, Twitch, the greed has become so hard to ignore that it’s impossible to rationalize paying them to fuck you anyway. Pay $18 a month for this service to watch this show, but this other show is on another service for another $16 a month. Fuck all that I’ll just open up whichever pirating site I have saved and download the fucking show in a half hour and toss it on my external HDD and watch it anyway.

I have no respect for companies that don’t respect their consumers.

Okay. Let me know when the dozens of content creators I follow on YouTube migrate there.
