Macoun may not be new and hip, but it's a solid, classic apple that deserves a higher score.

Most car accidents happen within a mile from home

...because that's where you're driving most often

I've heard a trendy thing now is to only label one present as from Santa, the rest are from Mom and Dad. That way kids don't find out there's a huge disparity when they go back to school

Where is the "burnt out on corporate BS and not sure if I even like coding anymore, I just want to retire and sell shit on Etsy, too bad everything costs money" phase

places in oven

"Honey what's that awful smell?"

"Who knows. Probably the neighbor's leaf blower"

Five minutes go by

"It smells like cancer"

"Maybe they are sealcoating their driveway, I don't know, stop asking me"

Twenty five minutes later

Opens oven

"Fuck"

Retching, coughing "Sweet baby Jesus, what the FUCK is that?! Melted plastic? On my new casserole dish?!"

"Open a goddamn window"

"Open all the fucking windows"

"Mommy why is the house stinky"

"Charlie go play outside"

"But Daddy--"

"I SAID GO OUTSIDE CHARLIE"

from outside "Daddy it smells out here too, the neighbors are doing something black to their driveway"

Nah. Dr. Pepper is from the 1800s. I don't think women were allowed to be doctors back then, so Dr. Pepper being male is a fair assumption.

The USSR had great success in many areas

The PRC struggled during the Great Leap Forward

You seem to be papering over the part where a shit ton of their own people died, so I don't think this really works as a pitch. You'd need to find a way to ensure that mass death wouldn't happen again, and then succinctly express it.

Mao was only about 70% good

Anyone who does mass executions is a fucking monster. Probably better to leave this out of the pitch.

 

Received this email. Blech.

Dear Prime member,

We are writing to you today about an upcoming change to your Prime Video experience. Starting January 29, Prime Video movies and TV shows will include limited advertisements. This will allow us to continue investing in compelling content and keep increasing that investment over a long period of time. We aim to have meaningfully fewer ads than linear TV and other streaming TV providers. No action is required from you, and there is no change to the current price of your Prime membership. We will also offer a new ad-free option for an additional $2.99 per month* that you can sign up for here.

 

Music is neat.

 

For example, my user/profile is based in beehaw, but I subscribed to this community on lemmy.ml. When I view this community, it says I'm joined. But in my list of subscriptions (in both Jerboa and the Beehaw website), it only shows my local (Beehaw) subscriptions.

Is there a list of "external" subscriptions anywhere?

Also, is it possible to subscribe to all communities on an instance? Lemmy is small enough that it'd be easier to just selectively unsubscribe, I think.
