That's kinda where I was sitting when I got the dlc. I had played thousands of hours and was moving my way into factorio and satisfactory. I bought biotech bc I loved rimworld, but I've not even finished an entire playthrough since.

You could certainly make the argument that reddit / Lemmy and anything similar is social media, but the anonymity means you aren't seeing or competing with people you know.

Idk, maybe I'm just coping, but I've never felt the need to do anything performative for the masses of internet strangers - unlike some friends of mine who studiously document anything fun we do for the ever important task of impressing people on Instagram.

Whenever the negative effects of social media come up, it tends to be about people comparing their "boring" lives with the carefully crafted veneer of other people's lives they see on social media. That doesn't happen (as much) when you don't use your identity and you don't know anybody else on the platform.

Tbh I'm passingly into feet, and I don't even know why

I need them to be manicured, clean, and a particularly pretty set of feet for it to register to me at all. For example, the feet I. The post? Dirty, not attractive. You'd think a guy into get would like the natural state of feet but nah, not for me.

The state wasn't "keeping their child from them", the state was protecting a child who didn't want to go back to shitty parents.

Early 20's here with 65y/o parents 👋

Thinking back to my middle school days, it's entirely possible there janitor never rollerskated on the roof, the administration had no plans to fire him, but the students were still prowling around threatening violence over it 🤣

Idk, she's a kid, I think she did pretty fantastically. Whoever coached her to sing it like this is the real dingus.

Even more so, it's turned into a hot button topic where people will be actively pissed of at you if you try to bring it up in discussion, calling it a "dog whistle" for nazi / anti-women ideology.

I agree that live games are a problem, and helldivers 1 had an offline option, but Helldiver's 2 being always online is better executed than any other live games I've seen. And, their servers have been needed up significantly since Friday.

Why are companies allowed to prioritize immediate money over literally everything, but when an employee does it suddenly "work isn't all about money"

That works so excellently for the military. You're technically able to be called back in at any time, but you're also allowed to drink when you could reasonably expect to have that time off.

And the clincher; you're not allowed to be drunk on duty, so they can't even say "no worries, I'll pick you up" without implicating whoever ordered you in

I like seeing these moe communities, what does Moe mean though?
