I come here to collect memes to share with my loved ones. Once I get ~5 at a time I stop ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I’ll write something here later probably. In the meantime, hi to whoever’s reading this I hope you get a chance to enjoy something kind today :)

lolololol
Welcome, Internet friend! Hope you get to feel at home here. Acceptance is a big value in this community so you should be pretty safe.

Broadfern@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Whats getting on your nerves at the moment?English13·1 day agoInsomnia.
I finally landed on a sleep pattern that (mostly) alleviates/prevents my chronic migraines and today I got all of 45 minutes and haven’t been able to get a wink since. Think Green Day’s Brain Stew.
Trying to keep my meds and routines as much as possible and hopefully stay up/sleep in to where I need to but I worry I’m screwed for the next week or so.
Broadfern@lemmy.worldto A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•Study: Hopeful homebuyers need income of nearly $117,000 to afford typical home in U.S.English11·2 days agoGross income (before taxes) for US federal minimum wage is $15,080 for full-time. So, close to 10x less.
Not sure what the late American music artist, XXXTentacion (left) has to do with this, but it did spur me to look up and find out that Republican former New York representative George Santos (right) has recently been sentenced for his fraudulent political campaign.
Capitalism does prioritize engagement and spending by exploiting short-term dopamine rushes, so in a way kinda-sorta yes?
ADHD as a clinical diagnosis though is the chronic inability for the brain to absorb/retain dopamine; a neurological or chemical issue that isn’t “caused” by behavior. Severe enough and you get to the point where you desperately want to play a video game or watch a show but can’t even press the start button 🥲
I’m so glad I’m not the only one. The stereotype of impulse buying is overshadowed by the compulsive need to absolutely make sure the dopamine high off the product is worth the money spent.

Broadfern@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Right now I'm working myself up, I'm in the 4-5 range. How many pills do you plan on taking when you're older?English2·3 days agoNSAIDs worsen my asthma so I have no other choice besides staying in pain 🥲
Broadfern@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's something people use the internet for that can be done just as easily offline?English3·3 days agoExcellent points :) I do use Libby through my local library for reading e-books so it’s a great suggestion.
Broadfern@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's something people use the internet for that can be done just as easily offline?English6·3 days agoI do this because all too often book print is tiny whereas I can adjust font size on a digital page.
I love physical books, but accessibility is sometimes a problem.
Broadfern@lemmy.worldtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•I 'member when the USA didn't disappear people because of protected speech tooEnglish61·4 days agoFor whom, though?
The US has always been cruel to minority groups; the only real difference is “middle class” white people are now being targeted too.
Native peoples, black Americans, and anyone not straight or who dared speak their mind have always been targeted with violence.
Does it need to change? Yes. But let’s not fool ourselves into thinking we ever truly had a “good old days.” Nostalgia is a dangerous poison.
I also realize now after typing this rant that may be the point of the meme lol sorry, I’ll keep the rest intact though.
EndeavourOS club! Gorgeous blend between granular control and reasonably configured initial guardrails for a willing-to-learn new Arch user.
I played around with other distros too, before settling into this one. Haven’t looked back after 2-3 years of use so far.
Broadfern@lemmy.worldto Health - Resources and discussion for everything health-related@lemmy.world•RFK Jr giving families ‘false hope’ on autism, says outgoing US vaccine officialEnglish1·14 days agoI mean, parts of being autistic can suck but ffs it’s not a death sentence.
So sick and tired of the eugenicist POS narrative that it’s this horrible defect and not predominantly just a heritable neurotype that’s part of the normal variance of human existence. Unfortunately capitalist, and especially US society is built to punish difference but that doesn’t make us the problem.
