I drove a '73 Super Beetle in the early 2000s for years and actually never once witnessed it happening unfortunately. I did take comfort in knowing it was happening all around me though.

The other nice thing about driving it was seeing other Beetle owners on the road and exchanging peace signs.

That game whips ass.

It’s a pretty different game, but another deck builder I’ve become obsessed with lately is Balatro. I highly recommend it

Fair enough. I actually respect it and think it might make for a nicer community if more people did it. It’s just so hard for me to relate as someone who has engaged in communities like this for 20+ years completely anonymously.

That’s so surprising. Coming from reddit, it was so rare to see people using IRL information in their profile. Is it more common in some lemmy communities?

I gotta ask. Is that a picture of you (like, actually you) in your profile pic?

So, all of the general points you make about tipping culture are valid, but it’s batshit crazy to say that it’s “one of the main reasons why Americans are suffering from such large class issues.” One of the main reasons? Are you fucking kidding?

This is the most psychotic take I’ve ever seen on cereal. It’s a recipe for making cereal a 1,000 calorie breakfast if the cereal in question isn’t super absorbent

I gotta ask, what situation are you in that you’re eating cereal in public? It’s just not that kind of food generally

Soft recommendation for psychedelics. It’s NOT for everyone and you should do some legitimate research beforehand, but it’s done wonders for my anxiety

The Ouya, obviously.

Music. 2 years ago I started teaching myself guitar and have played almost every day since then. At the beginning of last year I added learning to sing to my routine. Next year is going to be focused on singing and playing at the same time. Eventually I’ll start writing my own music.

It’s been the best hobby I’ve ever gotten into. It’s stress relieving and makes me feel good about myaelf for accomplishing something that I thought for a long time I could never get good at. I have recordings of playing and singing throughout the last few years. When I feel discouraged or like I’ve hit a plateau, I listen back to where I was when I started and instantly appreciate how far I’ve come. I’m pretty sure at this point that music will be a lifelong pursuit for me.

I think for the most part, they were not welcomed into the larger community and fucked back off to their echo chamber

Yeah, I’ve noticed that things are stabilizing a bit too. Maybe some if that has to do with hexbear idiots not sticking around? Either way, it feels nicer around here after that initial glut where there was a flood of trolls all of the sudden

This place reminds me so much of early reddit. It’s been a strangely nostalgic experience so far. The part of that which I’m enjoying the most, is that commenters are more polite to each other as far as I’ve seen
