Rules: (interactive)


1) Be nice and; have funDoxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy.

Please familiarize yourself with them


2) All posts must end with a '?'This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?


3) No spamPlease do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.


4) NSFW is okay, within reasonJust remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].


5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand.

Privacy, apparently.

That sounds awful.

If we're talking internet, we are already there. People just don't care enough yet.

Love. With all it entails.

Either music or software.

I feel like there should be more people better at whatever they are seeking.

ethical philosophy

That my blood, my immune system made a giant leap forwards in fighting cancer cells to the point it defeats most cancerous cell and saving hundreds of millions of people.

Integrity. Capitalism without regulation is a painful slippery slope where more and more is lost and given up to feed the beast and always requires much complicity at each step from average people who have little choice but to say yes in the short term when collectively we're all hurt in the long term. Pollute the water? Outsource the labor? Cut back the benefit? Shrink the product? It starts with capitalist, then politicians are bought...then every company and executive, then middle management...they all give in. You have kids now thinking this is how the world has always or should work.

Integrity is a stalwart against many ills, and it's desperately needed to return.

Oh sweet they finally need someone who can put up a slightly skew shelf while only injuring one finger!

Probably talking about (often obscure) horror movies, generally the more psychological, disturbing types. Either that, or chemistry.

[–] skoell13@feddit.org 3 points 2 years ago

Do you have some movie recommendations? I'm also happy to hear about older movies (60s 70s 80s)

[–] Stern@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Snarky commentary on internet posts, at least, based on what I do now.

[–] Free_Opinions@feddit.uk 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Well people want my opinions on current events obviously.

That or my renovation services.

[–] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What's your opinion on current renovation events ?

[–] Free_Opinions@feddit.uk 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Pretty good. Literally just finished my biggest job ever.

Not being able to turn your brain off and stop thinking. Nobody wants it but people are gonna learn how to suffer from this autistic beaver whether they like it or not.

Love the most primal form of it

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 3 points 2 years ago

My ability to use as little energy as possible for stuff.

[–] kwedd@feddit.nl 2 points 2 years ago

Suggestions for TV shows.

[–] sanguinepar@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Dreadful puns, and obscure references to movies, music and TV shows. It's what the world's been waiting for.

[–] skulkbane@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

My unimaginable stupidity... It could also be my home made fudge

[–] Chaos0f7ife@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

This will cause me to have an existential crisis. I just wanna be left alone man... Even if my blood IS AB-

If they're desperately seeking me, then shit must be really fucked up. Might as well start a new religion and pull a Gobind Singh before I die - he was the last sikh guru and named their holy book as the eternal guru, an equivalent would be the pope stepping down and claiming no more popes are needed, because people have the bible.

Some organically grown cannabis.

[–] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Damn yes, I could use an organic bud or two
