Come say hi, how was your day?

Just stop by and say hi? I think we are all here for our fond memories of forums, BBSes and other small communities. And I have been seeing a lot of movement on the all feeds about “the site that shall not be named” (that is so much harder to type then Reddit), or how less or more toxic lemmy is (done this myself), even a thread on how older lemmy adopters are annoyed with how redditors are “changing” lemmy. A solid point was made that, if we like slower content or a less toxic environment, then these federated services are made to help you do that. So in that light I have been taking steps to help lemmy be more of what I envision it to be. A place with oodles of information and some small places with friendly avatars…yes I said oodles. Once again I welcome you, and offer this community as “our space”.

Soooo…

I had an ok day, did the work things, and made it home to the family. However, my wife’s car AC decided it had worked long enough and retired. It is very hot here right now. So being the husband I am (masochistic but suffer very LOUDLY) I swapped vehicles with her. It was a small thing and my drive is shorter. But for the love of whatever you hold dear, THE STATE. garbage in passenger floor, check. Unidentifiable sludge on carpets, seats, cup holders, and handles, check. I had to take a lunch break and get cleaners for my sanity. Don’t get me wrong, I throw things on the floor and spill stuff…but I clean it up…moderation in everything. So I get home and say hi, then with an air of superiority I showed her what I had done (all proud and chest puffed out) by saying go sit in your car. She of course said “No, it’s hot in there”. We proceeded to argue for 2 minutes (the nice kind. come on…why…cause I want to show you something….sigh…fine). She gets in the car and looks, for not a long time but long enough where in your head your like…OMG, and realizes I cleaned it. She smiled and got out, gave me a kiss and took my youngest to their back to back activities while I sit on my couch typing this comfortably to strangers. I love my wife, she is a better person then me…sometimes ;)

Tl;dr Say hi and read a blurb where I acted smug while my wife did the actually hard work. I love my wife.
