ikr signing into my slrpnk.net account was like going to an old home I hadn’t been in for a while.

not comment-op, but often community centers, gyms, and yoga studios have meditation sessions. google maps can help you out. There are a lot of different types of meditation out there fwiw.

There’s all different kinds of meditation tho… If I try to “let it out” I tend to spiral, so for cases like that there are practices that help you redirect the thoughts. In other practices yes, you do confront them, often checking in for guidance by someone experienced. In other practices you try to think about them without any “ego / identity”. etc.

This.

The idea is what is key in comedy.

Dunno… execution is pretty important too…

I enjoyed reading John Keegan’s “The Face of Battle” bc among other things it talked about 3 different battles as they must have been experienced by the common soldier. iirc the night before Waterloo they slept in wet fields and ofc didn’t have time to change, before Agincourt they likely had to “relieve themselves” right where they stood and many had diarrhea (and some couldn’t even take off their armor to do so!) soldiers were often hungry and thirsty and exhausted, etc.

I learned a really valuable lesson in first grade. My friend Daniele had a really nice belt-buckle, but he was wearing it upside-down. I was like: Daniele, why is your belt-buckle upside-down? And he was like: so when I look down, I can turn it up and look at it.

Daniele was a pretty wise kid.

When he asks to see their code, they send him a single file.

A day that will live in infamy! But in a good way. A day that will live in famy!

kinda like an… opium? …of the masses?

Game on the couch til I pass out. Wake up halfway thru the night, throw self on the mattress, shedding clothes til I’m comfortable. (varies by time of year)

some “unofficial” replacements

• !streetart@lemm.ee… see !grasweeti@slrpnk.net, a lot of the same material (and is more active).

• !TwoGoobers@lemm.ee … see !relationshipmemes@lemmyis.fun, a lot of overlap

• !webcomics@lemm.ee … see !webtoons@ani.social for a partial replacement

deleted by creator

Regarding !martialartsmovies@lemm.ee, @klu9@piefed.social has created !action_movies@piefed.social to replace it and more.

Literally lateral thinking.

Plot twist: Leroy is his kid from a previous relationship.

It’s like an essay in dialogue form, pasted over clip art. It doesn’t really work, but I admire the effort and hope the artist keeps at it.

When I looked through the list of lemm.ee communities I was subbed to, my first thought was: omg I hope JohnnyEnzyme takes this ok…

oh yeah I remembered that character design. I like the purple color scheme, glad they weren’t lazy and just gave her all black clothes. Dunno if those red contacts match well, but… “crazy kids”. Glad she has sensible footwear!
