Some of the music I liked in my teens still sounds great. But definitely not all of it. Most of the music I love now would have been completely unavailable to me in the 70s and 80s. It took streaming music and algorithms to introduce me to the music of West Africa. So many amazing musicians in that part of the world, and I never even knew it existed.

I will go to my grave believing that story. No one can take this away from me.

When this song came out, I was struck by how much it applied to my life. I was living in a shotgun shack, in place I'd never been to before, we drove a Winnebago, and I was a beautiful wife, only not his beautiful wife, and I most definitely wondered how I got there!

I'm another Joey user, and I said I would be willing to pay around $3/month, and yes, I'd love to see a Joey for Lemmy. I spend hours every day on Joey (or I did,) so it seems only fair to support that.

There are several groups on reddit that I have enjoyed, and am going to really miss unless I find some fediverse versions. It's the agony columns, all the ones where people ask for advice. Like r/AITA, and r/RomanticAdvice. There are so many of them.

What are some similar ones in this platform?

It's been a while since I played, but I remember BlishHUD being really useful. It's kind of a Swiss army knife, with all kinds of helpful options, like pathing, instructions for dailies, and so much more. Looks like they're still active. https://blishhud.com/

He also gave each person a paper naming them victims of a crime, which they can use to remain in the country as long as they're helping with the prosecution.

I have spent many happy hours playing GW2 and ESO. Mods have improved the GW2 experience significantly, but the game is still playable without them, if somewhat annoying. ESO is completely unplayable without lots and lots of mods, at least for me. I'm so directionally challenged that I gotta have my minimap.
