Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What was the last instance where you struggled to explain something to someone because they belong to a different generation to you?
6·2 days agoMy grandmother doesn’t grasp the concept that streaming shows don’t come on at a certain time; they come on when I press play. She’s very forgetful and I’ve tried to explain this to her several times.
My ex once suggested throwing peanut butter at random people to make some sort of a point (something to do with them believing schools banning peanut butter was arbitrary). I’m not sure whether they understood, before I told them, that throwing peanut butter at random people can literally kill someone. If someone actually did that, I wonder if sheer stupidity would work as a legal defense. They were too stupid to ask why peanut butter is banned in schools.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What product do you buy even though you know it's overpriced?
1·2 days agoSnacks at the movie theatre. Costs a lot more than it’s worth but I like to have popcorn and soda at the theatre

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are your thoughts on apolitical people?
31·3 days agoThey irritate me. I guess I sort of understand, some people have too much going on in their personal lives to pay attention to politics, but it still drives me mad. Especially given the current situation in the Untied States. It’s inching closer and closer to full on holocaust. Soon, people will be being imprisoned and executed purely because of their race and there will be people going “I don’t know anything about that cause I don’t follow politics”. And it will be because of people who couldn’t be bothered to pay attention and vote against it.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Would you rather have hundreds of millions of dollars and be acutely aware of all the bad things going on, or a meager yet sustainable life and completely ignorant of everything.
2·4 days agoI’d like to have loads of money and be able to use it to improve the world

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Who were some of your childhood heroes that turned out to be horrible people?
38·5 days agoI watched The Apprentice when I was a teenager. I seem to have blocked out my memory of how I felt about Trump back then but my aunt says I used to think he was funny. I remember the opening tricked me into believing he was a good businessman (I was a teenager and this was my first introduction to him). I wouldn’t say I viewed him as a hero but I guess I liked him as a celebrity. Now he’s ruined countless lives. It was the birther conspiracies that made me start to dislike him.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Have you ever momentarily forgotten a word, so you just make one up?
2·5 days agoWhen my mom forgets the word she wants to use, she replaces them with words like “whaticall” or “doflicky”

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•I'm not proud of myself but it's the truth
2·6 days agoI saw a romcom right after a breakup once. When it got to the part with the cliche third act breakup, I wanted them to stay broken up. I thought they broke up for sensible reasons and got back together for dumb reasons. I don’t recall what movie it was. I remember a scene with a doctor marking someone’s knee for surgery. It was the year 2015
The only thing I can think of to do to prepare is stock up on food in case of emergency. I really don’t think I have much chance of survival when it all goes to hell. I guess try to enjoy things while we still can. I quote I think of a lot lately:
“Until such time as the world ends, we will act as though it intends to spin on”- Nick Fury, The Avengers
There’s little I can do to prepare in case the fascists come for me. The best thing to do seems to be to keep living my life as normal fir as long as I can

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you think intergalactic travel will ever be possible?
3·7 days agoWell I wouldn’t say it’s completely impossible. A lot of technology exists that would have been seen as impossible in the past. But I think intergalactic travel is extremely unlikely. I can’t imagine that we will ever create ways for the human body to withstand long distance travel as portrayed in shows like Star Trek
I’d want to see a movie address the harm they do. I’m not sure how they could address the pedophilia without being inappropriate
Who knows. Maybe the same drug sometimes affects the same people differently. I once had severe memory loss after drinking weed soda even though I had had the same product numerous times before without experiencing memory loss
Sounds like it’s fun to be a shrimp
Maybe not though. I suspect I had weed laced with cocaine once and it filled me with such dread I had to turn on all the lights in my apartment and refused to go to bed until after sunrise
I write fanfiction and make YouTube videos using a program called imovie
