This is how the older hardcore democrats see Biden

I’ve started to have such a massive problem around this one lately. I’m a good, maybe even great listener, and when I’m with another good listener, some real nice and deep conversations emerge, which I really treasure.
The problem is that the amount of other good listeners around me has shrunk to nearly no one, and I feel myself completely squeezed out of every conversation I engage in. Even a one-on-one dialogue can turn into a monologue where I’m not able to fit in more than a syllable here and there.

It’s really deteriorating my self esteem and level of happiness. Really feels like not even my closest friends and family give a shit about any part of my life or my person.

My workplace disabled extensions today, and I’m just mindblown by the amount of ads I’ve been blissfully ignorant about. I play music from youtube while working, but every time I’m in a good flow now, getting stuff done, there’s an ad-break that takes me out of that flow. Tiring having to work up that momentum all the time.

Yeah, this fuck Spez thing is cool and justified and all, but we all should be really more worried about Tencent 😳

“Everyone here is so nice”.

Oh yeah? Well, you can freaking go hug yourself buddy!

This isn’t a good analogy at all.

If it should be forcibly used, like, reddit is an ex, then fuck no we’re not over that ex. They took our home that we built and destroyed it.

I just discovered Lemmy, and I’m so happy about it. Instagram replaced Reddit for me these last five months, and I can really feel how detrimental it is for me. It’s like an ADHD-machine. No community, no discussion, just this as quick and loud phase as possible vibe. You look through one recipe video and you get recipes for several days. People dancing and dancing with huge smiles and these creepy eyes. Honestly it’s all so dystopian.

So keeping on with Instagram is not an option, going back to reddit is not an option - and I was really considering becoming like this person who is never in his phone, really mentally healthy, but wildly uninformed about the world and the general discussion 😅

The feel of this place with the Sync app is just so * chefs kiss *. Feels like what reddit was.

Bro, he read it as ‘erection’ 😂
