I am. Did it full time for a living for about two years when I was sick. Had $300 dollars left to my name, and turned it into over $200k and paid off stuff for me and my girlfriend and then got a little house.
Not sure what comparison of crypto and Lemmy is, but guess thats my answer. I understand peoples view on support and not supporting crypto.
Just started a job as a social media coordinator and informational officer for the community. Was taking pictures (WIDE pictures) of an event recently with permission of the event creator.
In the corner, an older lady selling purses was giving me a death stare. And after I circled around from talking to some folks, she yelled at me to come over to her booth. And she said "why did you just take my picture", I explained why and said she wasnt even in the photo other than a leg.
She got cranky at me cause she thought I wanted to steal her purse designs for my own creations. I am 27 years old, a very straight male. She is a 70+ year old woman, shaking and fuming mad. I came back again after and had to show that she wasn't in any pictures, and said I would blur anything out that she would possibly be in.
Well, I took a picture again for some people, and her business was in the background. So, I blurred it out of the image since she was getting cranky with me. Since she knew who I was uploading for, she went on later and saw the image I uploaded and then got mad at me for slightly blurring out the small part of the image she was in. Said she felt left out and wanted to be in the image. Then tried to tell me I should buy my girlfriend one of her $130 recycled purses.
I honestly hope I get more things like this happening, I love this kinda nonsense lol
EDIT: Another quick one, I worked as a electrician/labor worker for a year at a company, and one night we were working on a school and a drunk guy came driving through on a john deere tractor holding a big jug of beer. He managed to fit through the double doors we had open at midnight to move things in and out to our storage container, and drove it around the school hallways, and the security guard didnt know what to do and just let him drive around lmao. Guard was only like 19 years old and just sat on his phone, we talked to the guy driving and opened up the next doors and helped him out.
Stupid drama and community rivalries. And ads in apps.
Like a nice moist pizza right out of the microwave
Thank you Gavin.
Our small packaged rice says each is meant for 4 people. Bitch, I scarf that shit down like pudding in minutes on my own.
Same with any Chinese food from grocers.
Maybe I am just a fat man in a skinny body.
Nice feline creature you have there. Congrats.
Me saying I will turn my life around Also me, forgetting everything just said and waking up the next morning changing nothing in my life.
This land is your land, this land is my land, from Lemmy Shitposts, to Lemmy World News
I like it so far. But I think the large amount of reddit users won't like how separate everything is. Most of my friends and colleagues I've mentioned and shown it to, didn't like it for that one reason. Reddit is a singular easy to access place with communities for everyone that is popular.
Fediverse (Lemmy in particular) needs to simplify I think for people to be able to adapt to it. My girlfriend made an account and is having trouble finding groups for herself, but willing to take the time cause I'm next to her all the time. But not everyones got that.
edit: also, i am using Memmy for Lemmy now on IOS, nice to have when not at my PC. Good app so far.
I’ve always rotated between edge and Firefox. Some things I like better about each. Firefox usually wins out for me when stuff like this keeps happening haha
Would love to have a proper 3 serving juice box.
