My family does this, but then ignore me when I say I don't want anything. Then I end up saddled with some random garbage I feel obligated to keep.

If all your basic needs were met and you didn't have to work to get by, what would you do with your life? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

[–] Portosian@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 weeks ago

I've been using the stress of needing to do things to keep me going. Without it I can't even imagine what I'd do.

It's really easy to take for granted since most of us have never known any different. in c/whitepeopletwitter@sh.itjust.works

Just in case you weren't actually aware, that wasn't a statement about the quality of cinnamon as a spice. It's literally made frome ground up tree bark.

Don't try to normalize this abomination. The preparation is as bad as the ingredients.

Valve Deckard could come with a USB wireless dongle instead of a cable in c/virtualreality@lemmy.world

I've still got my Oculus CV1. It's never felt like the time to upgrade until now, but I'm fully on board with the Deckard.

YSK: Use ‘a’ when the word starts with a _consonant sound_, and ‘an’ when it starts with a _vowel sound_ in c/youshouldknow@lemmy.world

I don't know how I feel about a show following a live action shape shifting Zap Brannigan. Do they play it straight and end up with a character who's supposed to be pathetic or do they satirize the satire and make an over the top mess?

Beans hat? Jeans shat.

When you get to the right answer with the wrong question in c/Autism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

[–] Portosian@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago

I have an autistic parent. Family that I had to rely on as a child. Autism is not a positive thing. It doesn't make you a bad person or somehow morally less, but it does make you an emotional drain on everone you interact with.

This checks out. I saw the picture and the phrase "This kills the crab" ran through my mind. I can maybe explain the chain of memes and references that got me there, but not well enough to explain why it made me laugh. Digital archeology is going to be a wild experience a century from now.
