This, but since these were expensive, lots of people bought cheaper, off-brand ones book-by-book at grocery stores over a period of 30+ weeks. We had a set growing up that my mother would pick up at whatever store we were going to, IDK, I was little.

Seeing as how I’d have list the last things keeping me from killing myself, I wouldn’t.

4·1 年前Sucks to be Russian. Still. Again.
Cool, glad for y’all.
Hey, now that you’ve taken care of that, we’re having a little fascism problem here in America. We were wondering if you could, ya’know, return that little favor we did for ya in the 1940s?

Technology@lemmy.world•TikTok set to be banned in the US after losing appealEnglish
2116·1 年前Good riddance, vertical videos are cancer, short form obliterates attention spans, and their algorithm is engineered specifically to addict people, especially kids.
Now to ban all the rest of them. Let’s start with Facebook. Twitter is already killing itself but could stand to be “helped” off the cliff.
I sure af ain’t saying we were wrong. I just have no power to do anything about it.
I mean history is ambiguous about it, but it usually tends to be more bad than good. Usually.
In America that bill could force you to choose between food or rent.
Oh don’t worry, they won’t stop you from getting the anesthesia - they’re just going to make you pay 1000% above the wholesale price of it. Which you can negotiate down just like Blue Cross does. Good luck with that though. Anyway who knows, maybe their CEO will go visit New York.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•People who speak English as a second language: how confusing is it that nouns are not gendered?
3·1 年前Eh, gendered nouns are just an old holdover. At least English (usually) uses words to improve specificity. For example, “Pick up my medicine” as opposed to “pick up medicine.” It seems redundant to some until suddenly you need to specify after the fact.
The more precise the language the fewer chances of miscommunication. A perfect language would be precise and unambiguous without deliberate effort (as opposed to laziness, slang, shorthand, etc.) which is probably completely impossible to craft, much less about.
The same thing I do every day - hide and try really hard not to kill myself.

World News@lemmy.world•Asteroid nearly hits Earth in Siberia, with a 2nd massive asteroid passing this weekEnglish
61·1 年前Who’s aiming these things? If you’re gonna keep throwing them at Russia, then at least put a crater where Putin’s hiding.

291·1 年前Exclusives of any kind are bullshit marketing ploys, at best.
Windows: you’ll eat this slop even if we have to carve a hole in your throat and force it through.
Seems like that shut her up right quick lol
Well to be fair you already went through this shit once. Speaking of which, you’re gonna send troops over here to help us out this time, right?
They’re a religion, of course they’re assholes.


How else are you supposed to get your daily dose of Vitamin P?
