See the thing about transit crime is that it’s such a huge deal that it hits the news so hard when anything like that happens.

Meanwhile how many people have died driving in the last month? It’s such a huge number that it’s not even worth reporting on, it’s just “normal”. Fear is in the eye of the beholder.

I’ll take my chances on the extremely rare likelihood that something happens to me on the subway vs the probability that I’ll be maimed or killed while driving.

Wow, trying to rip cyberpunk much there in the end. Idk… As the other commenter said I don’t want to spend half the movie in LA or whatever city they obviously filmed in

Here we were all begging them to listen what would actually happen a year ago to them. All they had to say was get fucked liberals. Well here we fucking are.

No. I don’t care if it’s microscopic and you can’t feel it. Go wash your hands.

If AI would be a thing for things like translations, I would not want it to be messages or replies, I would want it to be part of the UI and labeled as AI content. Otherwise it’s noise and slop in my opinion.

Just watched her performance at the Grammys of pink pony club and it’s just phenomenal. So damn catchy too!

I always think about the Chunnel, how easy it is to travel between London and Paris when before it would have been boats.

Just use your phone now, use transit directions. It’ll tell you exactly where to go. And if you go to the wrong place, you can always just go back

Bingo. I’ve talked to many of them online and it always boils down to this. It’s never that they’re actually in any danger. It’s just they feel scared. They drive their big trucks because it makes them feel safe.

Meanwhile puny me rides the subway daily.

I think a show that plans for 2 seasons or less is great. Andor would have gotten stale at 5 seasons. Queens Gambit was only 1. We don’t need everything to run on forever.

However, that’s not Netflix’s problem. Their problem is that a show runner doesn’t know how long their show will run, so they can’t close out storylines correctly. Too many are left with open questions and cliffhangers because they were abruptly cancelled.

The amount of dudes who don’t wash their hands is fucking disgusting. Even if you don’t think your crotch is dirty (it is), you just touched the urinal handle, you have splash back, doors, your hands are dirty now. Go wash them.

I would have to be out of a job for a long time with no prospects to consider doing it. It’s so demeaning

There is not. I tried to create one just for testing stuff a while back and the blocked me and my IP. They wanted to see my ID.

Perfect! I’m a Linux guy, happy to fiddle and learn things!

Nope, not banned, chose to leave. Realized most of my anxiety and fear were due to Reddit’s algorithm amping up my issues.

Was banned from a couple of subs for promoting Lemmy though.

it’s not as good as I remembered, and not as bad as I feared. I thought it’d be a very mysoginistic view of a 90s home, and it kind of is, but not a crazy amount. Starts that way, Jill is a stay at home mom, 3 kids, house, dad is the provider, but the show tackles a good chunk of that. Jill wants to get her masters, wants to move out of the house. Tim has to come to terms with it. They tackle rebelling kids, differing views, idk, it’s not as bad as I expected it to be.

It’s not up to par with today, but I don’t think it’s bad either. So yeah, good filler

hoo boy, okay, let’s break this down. Since you call her a girl I’m going to assume you’re fairly new to this and I’m not talking to someone who is say, over 30 or something.

1. You don’t love her. You have a crush on her. Love is something that grows over time after already being in a relationship. Girls know this. If you tell her you love her, she’s going to freak out. Real life ain’t the movies, the movies have some romantic saying or gesture that says I love you. She’s gonna run for the hills if you use the four letter word on her.

2. If you do it in person, you have a solid minimum 50/50 shot. You do it on snapchat, that drops to maybe 10/90. No matter what you write, it’s going to come off as creepy. Don’t want to believe me? Fine by me, it’s your life - but I’ve been there, and I’ve done that exact thing. It’s gonna be weird, you’re going to stare at your phone for 2 hours. You have no idea what she’s doing when she replies, she may be with her family, she may be go-karting, and you just dropped that on her notification. It’s going to be a notification that sits there, she’s going to be at a movie or something, check it, and be like “wtf”. Digging your own grave if you want to.

3. Be freaking casual my man. Remember, it’s a crush. Your life will be fine if she says no. There are many many other women out there. I know, you’re centered completely around her, and I’ve been there you’ve probably dreamed up your perfect life. Full stop, throw that all out. You’re in love with you’re imagination of her, the idea of dating her. It’s not real. She’s not that dream girl. She’s a real life human breathing woman who has her own thoughts and opinions about you. You find time, you walk up, be casual, ask her if she’s heard about that new movie everyone is talking about. What does she think of it? What about that new show? Ha that’s awesome. Hey, maybe sometime, would you like to go see it with me? That’s it, that’s all it is.

4. Nobody fell in love without being a little brave. If you’re too afraid to do it in person, you’re not ready to do it. What do you think you’re going to say to her in person if she does say yes? Welcome to the game friend, this is your time to be brave. You want her? She’s right there, go up and ask her. We’ve all done it, we all know the feelings, the stomach turning, the sweats - but fact of the matter is that you have to take the leap of faith. If it’s a no, it’s a no. You’re still in the game, it will happen, and we’ve all been through it - but when it’s a yes it’s a perfect moment. I’ve been rejected many times over my life, every one of them stings. But when it’s a yes, well, it’s a wonderful feeling. There are 2 moments in a person’s life that will last an eternity. The first one is asking someone out. The second is asking them to marry you.

There you go, that’s my advice. As a guy who was probably in your shoes, who made a lot of mistakes, I give you my wisdom over the ages. From your other comments it sounds like you’re going to yolo it and just word vomit something into snapchat, which I guess hey, you do you. I hope you at least think about some of this though.

HIMYM is a good one for that, for me I like the shows that put you in the middle of a friend group. During depressing times it has really helped. Healthy? Not sure, but it made me feel better.

It is… but I do fall off around season 7, then it just becomes annoying for me. Before then was a ton of fun. I’ve found American Dad holds up better for me, fun but not the annoying side

All three are go-tos for me! Have never finished Cheers, on Season 9 I believe, but I should probably finish
