I’m banned from Reddit, but still want a similar fix like a drug addict.

Canada would be nice, more specifically the Vancouver area since I have friends out there. Maybe some European country like the UK.

Hey all furry Scott here

I think my house is too far down a seemingly dead court for most kids to bother. We got less than 5 this past Halloween, but I’ve heard the houses at the start of the street get tons of kids.

I didn’t really care for it. Still felt too much like “look at the horrible things our poor American soldiers went through” with barely any showcasing of what the other side was having to deal with other than the family the Americans took hostage.

That story gives Gruntilda from Banjo-Kazooie vibes

I’ve lived at home with my parents my whole life and I’m 30. I pay for all of my own stuff including food outside the occasional family treat where we all take turns paying for it. My parents don’t charge me rent, but view having me pay the Internet bill along with my car insurance (which for some reason is under my dad’s name) and getting them sweet teas from the gas station as close enough to paying rent. I never went to any higher education beyond high school, but I can imagine they’d help pay for it or help pay the loan like they did my sisters who are much older than me.

I do have friends whose parents are similar to you. Paying for everything their kid wants when going to college, including their own apartment to stay at and giving them money whenever they need it for groceries or gas. Enough of a regular allowance to also allow them to have some money to spend on random things they could also want like a videogame or trip to the movies. One of them is a few years younger than me and about to finish his computer science degree while not having done any kind of work outside of schoolwork or personal projects since maybe around 2017.

Same. Only one I can think of I like is marinara with bread sticks. Everyone always acts surprised when I eat so much stuff plain or just throwing salt on it.

If you don’t tell me exactly what you want, then you’re most likely getting either nothing from me or just a gift card. This goes for both friends and family and not just birthdays. Every year when it gets to Christmastime, my mom says she doesn’t want anything. So I just get her the same gift card I always get her for her favorite restaurant.

I only use self-checkout when it’s an option no matter the business. I worked in a grocery store as a cashier for 11 years and all it did was make me hate people so I’m not gonna be part of the problem for somebody else.

I meant Netanyahu. I apologize for the mistake on that one cause I was barely awake when I wrote it.

How can you say they support Gaza’s right to live when they had 0 problems with what Mamdani was doing and refused to even acknowledge the genocide? They wouldn’t even join the UN in acknowledging it or arresting the fucker.

When the DNC stops supporting Israel completely, starts taking up actual progressive leftist stances like defunding the police, and stops doing the BS bipartisanship crap then sure. Until then I’ll vote third party for groups like PSL who I do volunteer work with. The closest political party that aligns with my ideal version of leadership.

No? It’s hypocritical for Dems to demand voters give them money while telling people they want money out of politics. Personally I’d make it so politicians are paid the minimum wage of the state they represent and aren’t allowed to take bribes, donations, gifts from corporations or CEOs, and election funds are a pooled resource where everyone running for any party, big or small, has access to the same amount. Anyone found getting extra funds is immediately kicked out and banned from holding any level of government office, including even being a town mayor.

If they truly wanted money out of politics then they’d stop begging people for donations every single election cycle.

Good boomer humor

Might work harder to shut down USPS though.

I never go anywhere special, so I guess I dress for myself. I’m most comfortable in jeans and a t-shirt so even on days where I’m not going anywhere and will most likely stay home all day, I still shower and put those on. My shirts are all nerdy stuff with characters and logos all over them that I like. Never was a fan of plain, single color shirts. I just got a Mothra shirt and love it so much.

30 here and all of my friends are people I met online. We chat every day, but only see each other for a weekend every few years at a convention. My friends are all younger than me with some finishing up college and others just having full time jobs. None have a wife and/or kids though (hell I’m the only one in the group with actual relationship experience with only 1 other having experience in just random 1 night hookups).

Getting permabanned on my main and any secondary accounts I had helped. The app on my phone I use for Lemmy makes it look pretty much exactly like the Reddit app so the only difference for me is less people which means some communities I’d like to talk to people in just has nobody in them.
