Thinking about it more, there is one area of overlap: the genitals 😆

I’m an androgynous twink who is into bears. There is no overlap

Western folks don’t usually hold the bowl and utensils so close to the face

Tammy Baldwin from Wisconsin, proud lesbian and represented Wisconsin well

Time range of this is from 2007 to 2024

They actually just pressed reeds into soft clay, then fired the tablet in a kiln. It probably took the same amount of time to write that as with any modern writing implements

10:08 is the other time that is often used for analog clocks in store displays, because like 1:50 it makes the hands into the shape of a check mark. My favorite though is when digital clocks are ALSO set to 10:08 as a reference to that even though there are no hands!

Ah, no it does not do that

Like if you visit a link or go to someone’s profile, then go back to return to the comments, will your scroll position be remembered so you can see the comment you were just looking at? If so, yes

They make fire resistant vents for this exact reason

It’s Holocaust 2: Electric Boogaloo

Why does that surprise you? It’s the reasoning almost every homophobe gives

The Oracle games also open with Link riding his horse back to Hyrule castle, which doesn’t really make sense as a follow-up to LA, but alas

I’m still upset with the official timeline because of how they put Link’s Awakening as happening before Oracle of Ages/Seasons, when it CLEARLY happens AFTER the Oracle games! Link’s Awakening opens with him on a boat in a storm in the middle of the ocean, and if you do the special linked ending of the Oracle games the story ends with Link getting on a boat in the ocean sailing towards a storm. Get it together Nintendo!

Notice how the Japanese media frames the whole thing as the “wartime labor issue” to further try to distance themselves from their atrocities

but going much slower for no reason could get you pulled over

I feel like this is something everyone says but how often does this actually happen? Not often I’d guess, unless the police officer is bored, or it’s at an hour where they’re out looking for drunk drivers anyway

Mastodon has a pseudo-algorithm (sort of, unless there’s a better name) in the Search/Explore -> Posts view, which shows you posts that are trending on your instance. I wonder if Lemmy can come up with something similar based on your instance activity

Millions of American children are (were?) given these in the third grade and yes they all call them that

I love how his last name is pronounced “to share a” and he did, in abundance

I think it’s easy to understand Mastodon, or any federated service, using a metaphor for a country or large place, where you can say “I want to move to X country” but then you have to actually pick a place IN that country to live, like a specific city or rural district. Once you decide on your instance, it’s really not that hard
