If other sites are anything to go by, drama. Nothing but complete and total drama. Stats are ok, but only if they support maximum drama. Play analysis and tactical discussion is completely unacceptable.

Good luck trying to sell the epic Tolstoy novel “And”

In a row?

Yeah, and I’m also not extracting grandma

You’re not supposed to have fun. You’re supposed to learn so you can get a job that you enjoy.

Hi, elder leftist here. The whole education system is already set up to produce obedient workers. If you don’t believe me, ask yourself how much time is spent teaching kids to organise effectively, or advocate for issues they care about. Or even just build good communication with their classmates, like how to react to bullying.

All that matters is to follow the authority, don’t question the rules, put the things in your head that they give you and nothing else.

The reason kids are bored in school is because the current system doesn’t address the real problems they have, so why should they care about the system.

Luddites, the original ones were pretty rad. They were anti tech for anti capitalist reasons.

I agree that Luddite is the more correct term since it’s more general now, but I hate that the term got warped over time to mean anyone that hates any new tech

“I have to work 3 jobs to make rent and health insurance”

“But look at the numbers! We’re almost at full employment! Isn’t that great?”

Soft rain and an umbrella

I won’t call it pacifist mode exactly, but I prefer to play games like Tears of the Kingdom or even GTA by just walking around slowly and taking photos, observing the scenery. GTA San Andreas (the old ps2 version) is weirdly great for this because it has so many hazy colors and jaggy lines.

Sounds like we need to make a c/fuckgolf

I check Wikipedia or wherever first, not for reviews but just to get a sense of when they were most active or just to get a full discography. Sometimes I notice Spotify just straight up doesn’t have some bands oldest stuff, so it helps me figure out where I want to start

A thing I like to do if I’m in a cafe or place with good music playing, I’ll just straight up ask the staff – if theyre not busy – what they’re playing. Sometimes gets a nice little conversation. Then I’ll add it to a playlist and go from there. Of course I can shazam it or whatever but it’s not as fun

It’s interesting, mindfulness and meditation really weren’t that popular, at least in a mainstream way, before smartphones got popular. I feel like a big part of why it blew up was pretty much because people were feeling overwhelmed with modern multitasking and needed an outlet.

It’s been that way since the redesign. Nilay went all in on building it around Twitter and then ElonGate happened, so they kinda backed themselves into a corner. Pretty good coverage of the reddit blackout though.

The rock where they think people can’t tell the difference between a press release and journalism

Ah, ok. So it’s basically the legal equivalent of Macho Man’s cream of the crop promo? Got it

It’s interesting how some people tout Lemmy and Mastodon cross posting, but all it does is confuse me. I like mastodon for short things like news as you said, but when lemmy comments get mixed in I don’t know where to start
