I wasn't sure about a young guys name out here and asked someone "do you know the young black man who's new in the neighborhood? I wanted to thank him for helping someone I know the other day." After I helped host an event.

holy shit this person got mad at me. Said I needed to call them african canadian or colored. I get so confused by terms these days. Same with indigenous and native. I live in an area with many, and know some, and different ones prefer different words. I call one of them one term, and other that same one, they might get offended. I try to be as respectful as I can, gets hard.

Example, my therapist goes by indigenous, but her wife goes by native. So I thanked her wife one day for helping me at a indigenous event I was at, and she said "we call it a native event".

I'm having such a hard time the past 2 years in particular, and trying really hard with all of these changes in terms, pronouns and every time I think I understand it, apparently I don't. I have one trans friend who I see occasionally and thankfully they agree with me and makes me feel a bit less nutty.

My girlfriend is considering changing her orientation to some new wording I've literally never heard of all of a sudden now too. I just found a tonne of new things, like grey sexual, demisexual, etc. People I've been in employment/training programs with have changed their name and gender 2-3 times in the past year, and each time I see them I get confused with what to say or call them. It is oddly overwhelming.

sorry this turned into a slight vent

Internet 2 will be so hot

I’ve been unable to login on desktop since this happened. Only been able to login via Memmy on IOS.

I put in my info and it kicks me back to the front page and doesn’t log me in.

I’ve tried clearing cache too

EDIT: Switching browser to Edge seemed to let me. Weird. Even reinstalled Firefox and still won't let me.

I’m 27 and it’s been slowly getting at me on and off in spurts for 5 years almost. Sometimes I get it coming back on my crown and then it goes away. Now the front is receding.

Oh well, this is a man’s world, and it wouldn’t mean nothing, without the widow and crown loss 🎶🎵

Ah. He isn’t real, all in his head

Where did you ever get that from? Lmao

I salute your efforts for working on it anyway

Friend of mine tried it, and has the high res textures, med settings and FSR and maintaining pretty close to 60fps constantly (pretty sure those were the settings). Looked good and played good.

I've got it figured out enough for now, but still can be hard without using Lemmy Explorer to find things. I am hoping some apps like Memmy can incorporate better search functionality. There is so many that have similar/same names and its annoying finding the active one.

Also gets a bit weird thinking "Oh just found this cool community" and then seeing i need to make a new account, i understand it though.

GAVIN?

yeah i worded that a bit weird, i was tired as hell at 2am. Meant congrats on the cat having a long healthy life, its great to see.
