By the time I’ve called the police (which would feel utterly horrible), and the police have confirmed it was just plastic, I’d be a rattled mess for a long time. (I’m already mildly mentally ill and this would not help)

Standard wedding photography is set up to make photos look “old”. And it’s so hideous and awful. Most filters used for wedding photography look atrocious.
Let major moments in time look like they were experienced at that time! I’m looking at you, black and white photograph from 2016. Artificially making something old, when at one time they were the present, gives so much incongruity to the experience.
Let something as important as a wedding day look like it’s a product of that time. Not from decades previously.
I can strike up a conversation with most strangers in real life pretty easily.
But online? There’s almost zero context. Even something as simple as the weather makes a load of difference for the small talk that can develop into richer conversations later.
Online social anxiety, especially forums like this one where you get a grade (the upvote/downvote), is very understandable.
The English language is missing a gender neutral term for a cow/bull.
Cows are female
Bulls are male
Steers are castrated bulls
Cattle - the term for multiple cows and/or bulls and/or steers
It’s odd because every other animal with gendered language has a gender neutral term. Take chicken for example.
Hens are female
Roosters (or Cocks) are male
Capons are castrated roosters
It’s so nice to have a word like chicken to describe all these animals. But no word for that exists for cow/bull in English.
The writer of the tumblr post above either didn’t know the right word to use would be “Bull,” or the writer wanted to make sure they were understood so used the word Cow. Which… linguistically at this point may have become the gender neutral term for this animal because people need one.
Cow is such a common word, and bull is so uncommon that to be understood by everyone, cow might just be the best word.
Though anyone with knowledge of animal husbandry would be baffled because by the strict definition cows are always female.
I’m sorry you had to learn this nightmare language.
I met her at my university’s Brony club. I sat next to her because she had a sketchbook open. I brought out my own sketchbook and struck up a conversation.
We had a two-year courtship and have been married for 6 years now.
I suspect you aren’t the target audience.
Most mobile game marketing is done with ads in other free-to-play mobile games. Unless you play those types of games regularly, you’re unlikely to come across it.
I don’t touch any game I can’t pay for in full once and be done. So I know I’m not the target audience.
If we had proper care for the mentally ill and living on disability payments wasn’t so awful, people with severe PTSD (and likely sleep deprivation) wouldn’t be forced to have jobs.
It’s funny seeing how much of my gaming is the 30 minutes to an hour detoxing after work before going to other tasks. I rarely play a game for hours on end anymore.
Shout out to Hades and Inscryption (Kaycee’s mod) for being less than an hour to beat a run. Perfect for a detox.
I desperately want this as well.
Just a few more plot points away to re-enacting Burrow’s End in real life.
That’s a good question. I don’t know.
Just speculating, the upvote/downvote does help a user know what is expected behavior and some understanding to build from.
It also provides a rich incentive to post because “number go up” feels good.
I’d love to know YouTube’s data on hiding the dislike button. It wasn’t great for viewers, but it may have had an effect on creator satisfaction. But I don’t know for sure.
I still don’t feel comfortable here. Lemmy feels too much like an echochamber of the same opinions. The lack of diversity makes me feel more comfortable on tumblr than Lemmy at the moment.
It’s frustrating when I do need to check Reddit for any niche things. I love forums, but find chatrooms like Discord anxiety inducing. Sometimes the only forum for a niche topic is a subreddit :/
The best example of good manliness in media I can think of is Bandit from Bluey.
The options are pretty slim if a cartoon dog from a children’s show is humanity’s best example of being a good man.
There are few things that boost inspiration and innovation quite like a competent competitor.
It’d be cool if CGPGrey remade his “What is Reddit” video, but exchanged it for: “What is Lemmy”
He unlisted that video, so I don’t think he has that popular of an opinion of Reddit these days.
Celebrities like him joining would be a big help.
If someone has truly changed their ways and reformed, I’d hope they could go on to start over.
It’s hard to judge someone else’s level of reformation though.
It’s just a tv show. I went to watch parties for Legend of Korra, anime, movies, and board game nights.
I’m not sure there’s much more to get
They’re trying to solve one of the hardest problems in Computer Science: Naming things.
What do you call the framework, or design system—that thing that’s not quite a glossary of the terms—we’re going to use to describe the meta conversations around design?
“Design language” encompasses the colors, spacing, tokens, typography ramps, general rules, and all the other fiddly bits to unify on so that the more interesting parts of design and user experience can happen.
Naming things is hard :/
A watch party for people that like the television show and fandom surrounding My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
My wife and I are huge nerds
This would scar me for life and I’d never recover
