Well, good, that's what the font's for. I took that cue from Kolanaki within my first week on lemmy.
The only animal product you're required to consume in Christianity is the body and blood of Christ.
Yes, and I often reread my own comments and feel a deep sense of satisfaction.
Sometimes! I've definitely used it to make calls or check the time.
Wait, wait, you put the PB on top of the jelly? Like a jelly sandwich garnished with peanut butter? I don't think I'm understanding you correctly.
True roguelikes are not. Oldschool sidesscrollers as well. Any game that starts you from zero.
But less pedantically, it's a genre name, not just a description. Also known as the "numbers get bigger" genre.
Last week, my five-year-old hit some litter at full speed and flipped over the handlebars of his scooter.
When I didn't, I would walk three blocks to the library with my laptop once a day to check my email, read webcomics, look up GameFAQs and stream Gossip Girl.
Maybe the "GameFAQs" gives it away but this was before smartphones.
I've seen a few blogs with "Don't comment to say you didn't like the article, Doug" as a rule.
Quite the opposite.
Though, TBF, my wife's maiden aunt sends us a fat pre-inheritance check every other year or so. We usually put it towards a trip to visit her or fixing up the house.
I love it, and that's why I want to improve it. And you can't fix a problem without acknowledging it exists.
I got a waterproof case, so I use mine as a coaster.

Still know all the songs!
First Cookie Clicker, then AdVenture Capitalist (which I'm surprised to learn is still around!)
I've played a few others, most recently Sixty-Four.
No, I mean both the shadowy organizations of which I am a member are already documented, as is the fact that I am a member of each.
At some point, it stops being a secret society and starts being just a society with secrets.
ABC News: Chicago police tweak mass arrests policy ahead of Democratic National Convention
Chicago Police Superintendent Larry Snelling is touting the nation's second-largest police department as fully prepared for protests ahead of the Democratic National Convention, including on a new mass arrest policy
How do we feel about this? Article makes it sound like there will be a greater emphasis on deëscalation and oversight, but is that enough of a change?
I stopped telling "Yo Mama" jokes because they were déclassé.
Now I tell Yo-Yo Ma jokes, which are much classier.

Thought I was going to have to wait until next year for a snow Pikmin...
Nope! Had to quick charge my radar, but o e last day of snow got it for me!
The Killers - The Cowboy's Christmas Ball [music video]

This is one of my favorite songs off my Xmas playlist. The Michael Martin Murray original is also good, but I prefer the sound of the Killers' cover, and the video only makes it weirder.
Also one of the best descriptions of American folk dancing in popular media.
Atomic Robo - Knights of the Golden Circle
The robot punches monsters and bad robots and one time he was a cowboy.
Atomic Robo is a comic book, mirrored on the web, about alternate history. In this arc, the eponymous hero has been sent back in time to the Old West... where he finds an old enemy who hasn't met him yet.

Is Dune isekai?
Paul is transported to another world where he doesn't know the rules and has to start over in a strange land. He befriends the locals, goes on adventures, becomes their leader, and eventually saves the planet.
What do we think?
I use a to-do list to remember important tasks. But if I am anxious about a task, just looking at the list triggers my anxiety.
Often I end up closing the list and immediately turning to self-soothing. And because there's no way to know in advance if a task on the list will give me anxiety, this often results in my list being not just unusable but unreadable, preventing me from doing or even remembering the non-anxiety tasks on the same list.
DIY / Off-Grid / Homesteading Communities
If you're interested in gardening or ecology, the entire Solarpunk instance (slrpnk.net) is full of great munis for you. Here's all of those plus some from other instances.
Cycling and bicycle communities
I think the following is a comprehensive list of cycling munis:
Went on All today and saw many posts celebrating Sen. Feindtein's recent passing. Why is she so hated on the left?
I'm not from California, so I don't know much about her; but this genuinely surprised me, especially how vicious and vitriolic the comments were. What's going on there?
Manel — Teresa Rampell (2013)
I can't remember how I first came across this song: My wife says I played it for her, but I remember her playing it for me. The important thing is that we both love it, which believe you me, is not all that common.
I love it because it's rollicking and high-energy and earnest. I eventually looked up the lyrics (which are in Catalan) and it's a pretty normal love song with some nice sentiments, but the passion and desire come across in the vocal tone, even through a language barrier.
If you like Yo La Tengo or The Magnetic Fields, this song will probably hit the spot for you.
And if anyone has more music that sounds like this, send it my way. I'm always expanding my library.
