  • Something that happened to you but no one believes you?

  • I'm about to start therapy (again) for pretty much the same reason... I joke that I don't have good luck nor bad luck, just crazy luck. Only a few people closest to me truly know how wild it's been the past 5 years? 7 years? I honestly lose track sometimes

    Last time I went to therapy in 2021, I gave them a summary of the most recent traumas and completely forgot to tell them my sister had recently died. The next session, I mentioned it to them and their face... couldn't entirely hide their shock. It was at least validating though

  • Which Vine video do you still think about sometimes?

  • "What the fuck is up, Kyle‽"

  • I had never heard of the pinecil before, thank you! I'll keep that saved for when I want to upgrade my dinky little iron

  • And some of us weren't old enough to understand the history of what has already been sown. Ripping weeds by their root is tedious, sometimes tiresome, work

    I appreciate the reminder, and understand it's not just a "U.S." problem. But thank you nonetheless. I can't truly apologize for something that I didn't understand I was already a part of... but I'm sorry

    I'm trying more than just "angry comments", I promise. It's strange to me; writing a comment and thinking about how it may be used against me, because of things. But here we are, and I refuse to give up my love for people. Sue me. Shoot me. Piss in my cheerios. I'll remain as I can

    I used to joke that my goal was to just make it to 65. Good enough for me... but I have new goals now. I'ma live till I'm 92, and godspeed. I hate living in interesting times, but I guess it's what we're doing right now, so fuck it. I'll keep myself and remain kind for others, because hopeless doesn't equal helpless

    And Heyyy friends, if you're reading my shit... good

  • Wtf did facebook marketplace just suggest to me?

  • It helps to keep me lighthearted; the lightly-whimsical font (on just my phone) is easier on my brain. I work with a lot of intense situations that require a lot of critical thinking... so it's nice not to see the same font on my phone that I normally see when trying to mitigate an impending crash. It's just nicer for allowing my brain to switch gears between priorities... if that make sense?

    I work critical care in a large hospital, and I've had to develop a bunch of coping skills to maintain my humanity/sanity as well as not bringing my work home with me everyday. Small changes can make a big impact sometimes

    And I've learned to love the font. A lot of people may need the rigidity of a standard font, but I assume it's a per-basis situation

  • I never clicked it, so unfortunately we'll never know

  • I never noticed the HD option in Boost, thank you! I always just struggled through the pixels or gave up when it happened. Thank you again!

  • Does anyone truly think times are better now than 30 years ago? (US)

    Jump

  • Not trying to lessen your point, but people do be dying from sepsis all of the time still. Granted, we do have way better treatment and protocols, but it's a fast killer if not caught in time and a lot of different things can cause sepsis

    But polio, for sure way better. Never seen anyone with polio before irl

    Also stroke treatment. Wayyyy better now than before. We didn't really have anything except aspirin until the 90's, and now we're straight up removing the clots from the brain (when we can). It's kind of wild how much stroke treatment has improved in 30 years

  • Do you have a "catchphrase"? if so, what is it?

  • Instead of: 'your mom', 'that's what she said', 'title of your sex tape', etc... I just say, "jokes".

    Doesn't matter what the joke is, but what was said definitely has a joke in there somewhere. It's an implied innuendo, and it's mostly for my own amusement

    "I'm giving 'er all she's got!!!" = "Jokes"

  • I've written a series of blog posts about a "hands-off" self-hosting setup intended for relative beginners.

    Jump

  • Well, you just saved me a bunch of time trying to figure out how to auto-update my humble little server. Granted, I only have Plex and Samba Share right now, but I like the principle. Hell, an update once blanked my smb config file for whatever reason

    Now auto-backups are another thing; because I would like to use a .tar file, but then it leads me down a rabbit hole because I don't know how to repair Grub if needed for a restore, or what Grub really even is vs Bios... I've just been learning as I go

    I'm a few weeks away from getting a couple parts for an upgrade, and then it'll be some fun. I want to redo it from scratch and maybe set up proxmox and change my file system to zfs, then start looking at docker, figure out Jellyfin and look at some ARR stuff... maybe tailscale or headscale. Idk, it's just fun cause it's a hobby. I just haven't had the storage or ram really, but soon

  • Any nurses lurking around here on Lemmy? Is there a medical community for general discussion, debriefing, comradery, and/or stories/memes?

    Jump

  • Thank you! Seems more news oriented, but I'll take it

    Edit:

    we don't have regular discussion posts yet and so it's mostly news articles

    I managed to skim that part, so I guess I restated what you clearly just said... that's my bad, but still thank you! Now following... guess I'll repost my meme there for funsies

    How many of you use Lemmy and ONLY use Lemmy vs Reddit?

    Jump

  • I use it for news, but I mostly see enough news on Lemmy that I don't have to use it often. I just check it occasionally to see if there's anything different and to help balance my personal bias a hair

    RSS seems to have been dying forever, but still persists. I just use a search engine to find the RSS feed, cause it's sometimes impossible to find on the website itself

    Edit: and also, I use the "Feeder" app to aggregate the RSS feeds

  • What's something you immediately judge a person for when you see them wearing or have?

    Jump

  • It's ok, I judge myself too. Continue to judge and boo us, it may give some the extra push to finally quit

  • Lemmy and RSS feed is all I use. I look at things my wife and 2 others friends will send me on instagram, but I never just scroll through it
