I was looking for my drill driver the other day and I distinctly remember myself thinking "good luck finding this future me, you asshole." It was in the back of my wife's car for some reason.

I like my women just like my coffee:

  • Bitter.
  • Very likely to burn me.
  • Impossible to read.

Reminds me of that olive oil coffee Starbucks was selling that caused people to shit their pants.

Weird, at my company they changed it to "flesh asset repair and removal."

I was just being cheeky. I'm never going to be in a situation where I need parts for one of these garbage vehicles, and anyone who does has no sympathy from me.

Who would have imagined that a department called "human resources" wouldn't have your best interests in mind?

God: "This little guy is called a 'wolf'. He may look cute, but don't get too close. He's got sharp teeth, he hunts in a pack, and he'll hang out on the edge of your village, steal your food and kill your livestock.

Humans: crying "I can change him!"

On the plus side, they should be quite easy to salvage for parts considering the paneling peels off with very little effort.

Puzzle for April 2025 in c/elianscript@sh.itjust.works

Thank you so much! That puzzle was a lot of fun. I got the gift card no problem, and I used the money towards buying some flashlights for our local Food Not Bombs group!

Have you fed your starter this week? in c/memes@lemmy.world

For a while I was just dumping my discard into a hot oiled pan to make a nice little pancake. Some scallions, sesame seeds and teriyaki sauce for toppings. It's a lot to eat on the regular though.

Trouble restoring purchases (lemm.ee)
 

I was forced to get a new phone when my last one recently died, and I'm unable to restore my Sync Ultra subscription. I checked the Google play store and it's active until August, but when I try to restore purchases on both of the accounts I use, Sync tells me that it can't find the purchase. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've tried reaching out to the dev.

Does anyone else feel like tech peaked around 10+ years ago? (lemm.ee)
 

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but does anyone else feel like technology - specifically consumer tech - kinda peaked over a decade ago? I'm 37, and I remember being awed between like 2011 and 2014 with phones, voice assistants, smart home devices, and what websites were capable of. Now it seems like much of this stuff either hasn't improved all that much, or is straight up worse than it used to be. Am I crazy? Have I just been out of the market for this stuff for too long?

What are you going to do, no matter how small, to make the world a little better? (lemm.ee)
 

Lots of people are feeling hopeless and upset right now, and for good reason. It's normal to feel like no matter what you do, things are going to get much worse for a lot of people. Blame, despair and anger are natural reactions, but as the shock of the situation dulls, what's your plan going forward?

Call me naive, but seeing hate have a resurgence makes me want to do more to help the people that are going to suffer the most. I'm going to make a plan to volunteer more of my time and resources to help organizations that need it. I'm going to see if my friends can organize with me to sponsor a migrant family. I may not be able to do much, but my personal way of coping with shitty situations is to try to make the world a little less shitty.

I'm going to try to be kinder and more forgiving with people, and be a better role model for my kids. And I'm going to resist and fight back against hate when I see it.

Lastly, I'm going to be a more supportive friend to the people in my life. And to anyone reading this that feels like this world's gone insane, and you're all alone: you're not. We're still in this together, and I appreciate everything you're doing.
