I get what you mean, but this was in the central loop, in a business district, between a white woman in her 50’s and a black man in his 30’s. Very much gun culture by your definition.

Gang culture I can somewhat understand, but this was just wild to me.

Not saying it’s right or wrong… not my circus. But at a chemist?

The firearm culture, and how normalised it is.

I went into a Walgreens in Chicago, and waited in line behind two other people. There was a cashier free but the person in front of the line was waiting to be called. The guy behind the person in front politely said, “ma’am, the cashier is free” ‘I’m waiting to be called” was the response.

So the guy behind her just walked past her, and she pushed him and said, “Careful buddy, you’ll get shot for doing something like that”

I was taken aback at how quickly a simple discourtesy escalated to shooting someone. It just blew my mind that shooting someone over queue jumping was verbalised, and seemingly normal to each other.

Here’s the thing… you said “a jackdoor is a crow.”

What an amazing catalogue of games they made!

Oddly, the long service leave varies from state to state/territory. One state gives 6 weeks at 7 years, another gives 12 weeks at 10 years.

We moved country earlier this year, and my wife misses “dim sims”. Truely unique

This little quote helps make me thorough in my work

This is rad! Thanks for sharing that… I have now passed it on to a group of friends who will get a kick outta it

Wefwef is working well for me on iPad. I was used to using Apollo to browse reddit, so this has been a godsend. I’m starting to feel more comfortable with using Lemmy a bit more as I’m figuring out what is going on! I hope that the youthfulness of lemmy (to me anyway) is a nice filter from the overwhelmingness of reddit… the downside is that it feels very niche so far, but as adoption becomes more apparent, it will be a budding new “front page” for me.

But if you’re an apollo user, I’d suggest maybe looking at wefwef, and use that to interact with lemmy.
