Costa Rica! The biodiversity and abundance of nature is astoundingly beautiful.

Thanks!

Eh, not as a kid. I got a phone in high school once I got my driver’s license. But yeah, parents are a blast, huh?

How are you feeling about cops and the government these days?

I mean, correct me if I’m wrong, but aren’t Nature and its subject-specific varieties considered some of the most reputable and prestigious scientific publications?

Yeah, my parents made us leave our cell phones on the kitchen counter so they could read our texts every night, and they installed software on our computers that took screenshots every 5 seconds.

“Gruntled”! The wonderful opposite of disgruntled

There is a dedicated ICD-10 medical code for “eye pecked out by a chicken”. They’re vicious little fuckers.

Idiotic. This whole country just rolls over for whatever capital wants, the wishes of the people be damned.

Because I already did all the fun things and got fat, so now I need to make up for all the healthy things I didn’t do before

You nailed it. Well put!

It always blows my mind when I see Back the Blue flags next to Gadsden flags. Who do they think is doing the treading?!

It is usually pretty clear when someone is a recent “refugee”, expecting everyone else to hate Reddit as much as they do, like there’s a feud between Reddit and Lemmy. When it seems to me that most folks around here are just content to be our own little space

That’s the beauty of it - it doesn’t matter, since it’s all the Threadiverse. Lemmy, Piefed, mbin, whatever else may come along. As long as they all use ActivityPub, they’re all interoperable, and people can choose whichever one suits them best. Afaik, though, Lemmy is still far and away the most popular right now

Catholic education from kindergarten through 12th grade.

And therapy if you’re healthy, substance abuse if you’re not.
