Rex: “couldn’t put it down!” Spot: “Must Read!” Precious: “I really connected with the central theme. So true! Absolutely poetic take on the over squirlification of our neighborhoods. Those squirrels need to go back to where they came from!”
Lemmy has naturally become the unofficial home of furries and trans. I love it and am happy to be here for it before it goes mainstream and gets enshitified. We’re living tomorrow’s good ole days and don’t even know it.
It’s not being mainstream that causes enshittification by itself, it’s corporate control.
That’s the beauty of federation, there is no easy way for a single entity to become dominant.
I’m not saying it’s impossible for the fediverse to enshittify, but it seems to me that it probably won’t. We’ve already shown that we’re resistant to corporate “embrace, extend, extinguish” strategies.
It’s so easy to get free guys in Mario 3 that these were kind of pointless. The ones where you could win a hammer bros suit, on the other hand… Those were valuable.
Only stuff I like in some thrift store is power supply/adapter. Say I need for a project or to replace faulty one, a 8.4V 300mA wallwart? a 15VAC one? etc, just go in the bin at the thrift store, some are 1$ or 2$ It’s dull I know.
I don’t. I hope it’s permanently disfigured. Heres my reaaoning. Trump has a mental inability to accept that he’s not perfect. So having this disfigured ear, for someone whos on camera so often, would drive him NUTS.
And yes, I realize he’s probably already gotten plastic surgury to make sure it looks like nothing happened, but I can dream of a world where a mild disfigurement keeps him up at night because he’s shallow.
And just to give you an idea of how things used to be, Taft finished his 45 minute speech after getting shot. THEN he figured “Eh, may as well go to hospital. Got nothin else planned for today.”

Yep, Teddy Roosevelt did something similar. Got shot square in the chest at the beginning of his speech, determined via his hunting knowledge that if he wasn’t coughing blood (he wasn’t) then he was probably fine, bullied the Secret Service into not harming the shooter, finished his speech, then went to the hospital.
I know I would never be that much of an absolute badass, but I also know these are the sort of people that Trump is trying to compare himself to and coming up woefully short.
It was less a remark on my inability to read a comment of that length, and more one on some people’s obsession with ranting about things at the slightest provocation
PSA that you will never find any hidden gems at Goodwill ever again. Goodwill started an e-commerce website and they have people in the back who sort through everything and anything of any value is sent to e-commerce and appraised and sold at auction.
So the days of going to goodwill and finding cool stuff are over, it’s all just dead people’s clothes now. Support your local thrift stores by going there instead
It’s a lot more rare for sure. Some still do have nice stuff, but it’s much, much more of shitshow than it used to be. Unfortunately not many independent thrift stores around me, and the few that are generally have nice deals even less often than goodwill.
I remember I used to see xboxes and PlayStations on the shelves frequently. In the last year I’ve seen 2 wiis, 1 wii u, and 1 Xbox 360. No computers anymore. No cool software. The shelves are getting more barren.
