I will always be thankful for Dialectical Behavior Therapy by Marsha Linehan. I have never been diagnosed as borderline, but the lack of basic coping and interpersonal skills was obvious. It wasn’t a cure, but it has given me a foundation on which I was able to move forward with deeper, therapeutic processes. Frankly, I think everyone should go thru all the modules at least once.

R/Greebles and r/crabcats!

I microwave my ice cream. Not until it’s completely melted, but till there is just the right mix of melty and firm. Even better is eating microwaved ice cream in the middle of winter while cuddled under and electric blanket. Pure bliss!

To your cheese sausage I would reply “And for you, I have tuna patte.”

Chastity belt… CLANG!

Not a single mention of Blowfly Girl

It could have been so much better, but The Black Cauldron with the oracular pig is a favorite.

Edit to add: and The Goonies!

Made all the better. Dark fantasy at its best.

Hahahah

As ideal as that sounds, who would maintain the noncorporate internet? The government paid for with taxes? The users? How much of your time, energy, money, system would you be willing to sacrifice for a digital public square?

So do you feel that companies should never sell/use a person’s info even if the product is free? Would you accept greater amounts of advertising and the use of anonamized user data if it meant your personal info was never sold?

In some cases you can, some you can’t. Lemmy vs Reddit for example. If you choose not to use Reddit or use it less, how did you come about that decision? Where is the line of “enough already”?

Sorry. Maybe this will help…

Things to consider: How much of your data would you be comfortable letting Lemmy sell vs Reddit? If Zuck treated users better, would you be more accepting of Meta monetizing your data every way possible? When it comes to using something for free (tangible or intangible) do you accept a company selling your personal information if their practices align with what you feel is fair?

Depends on the location. Vermont, US doesn’t have snakes like that, but it’s illegal to relocate animals from the property on which it was caught.

It’s a way to add content and (hopefully) build interest in the system. It’s also a way for Lemmy users to show they are just a little different.
