Honestly, same. I've got a Mastodon account that follows some of the smaller communities.

Not much help to know what cup size you are if the bra companies are only pretending to be standardized

 

It's so bad that my fiancée has some bras that say she's a B cup and others that says she's a D cup. In order to go bra shopping, you have to actually try them on to find out if they fit.

If I had to try on underwear to see if they fit, I might not bother with underwear at all!

There's a downvote bot, sometimes people click the wrong button by accident, and this community is not leftist

This is because your friend is a wizard, and their personal objects pick up a magical blue-purple hue the more they are handled. This is a gradual process, so it's not noticeable on most of their things, but they wear their glasses every day so they pick up the hue at a steady rate.

Bro, we have to pick between a right-wing zionist pretending to be progressive and a literal fascist who spews so much insane bullshit that it's hard to tell how much of his brain is intact these days. There's no good option. Nobody is excited for this election.

Nah, bluesky doesn't really appeal to me. I like the tumbr-ish culture on Mastodon.

Like I've said elsewhere, I've had good results finding pirated media using the Brave search engine. The main downside is that it's run by Brave, and they are a bunch of cryptobros

There's so many works I've seen that I wish were created by someone other than their author/studio.

Mild example: Yesterday, a clip from an anime popped up in my Shorts feed, and it looked cool so I went to the comments to see if I could find the name. Right at the top, I see a comment I left saying "Don't watch this, everything after episode 1 was incredibly mid. The plot sounds awesome when you describe it but in execution it was so fucking bland". I don't even remember leaving that comment.

(The anime in question was Daily Life of Immortal King. Protag is born with Ultra Instinct and only gets more powerful over time, so his family puts a magic seal on him to keep his power at the mere ultra-instinct he was born at. The anime follows him as he tries to keep a low profile at Xianxia hero school.)

My justification for calling octopi fish is that I asked a pre-schooler what kind of animal an octopus was, and he told me it was a fish because it breathes water and swims in the ocean. That said, maybe cephalopods could be their own type because they tend to be solitary, which would be thematically relevant to why they wouldn't combo off each other.

 

I'm fiddling with a card game concept, and a very important part of it is creatures interacting with other specific kinds of creatures. This necessarily means I need to come up with lots of type names that are descriptive but vague enough to shove literally anything in them. Here's some good examples: "bug" containing ants, shrimps, pillbugs, bees, and literally anything that could be called a creepy crawly; "fish" containing everything from salmon to sharks to eels to octopi; "trees" containing all the stuff you are thinking of as well as those precambrian 6-foot fungi pillars; and "cats" including housecats, big cats, cheetah, and carcals.

And that's everything I can think of that would be useful. You see my problem? I know there are other casual-usage words for big categories of critters, but my grasp of the Enlgish language is fickle and leaves me whenever it is most inconvenient. If there is a list I could work from, that would be very helpful. Otherwise, volunteer as many words as you think would be useful.

Writers of Lemmy, how do you do outining?

I normally just do a big text document, but I'm starting to think thats not the best method for me. It can be overwhelming to keep nice and linear over time.

Why are all the #peertube instances #defederated from each other?

@nostupidquestions

Has there been drama over there? Is there a functional reason?

Also if you know any good channels, @ them below

Particularly interested in hearing from mice and tarantula owners. I don't really know what there is to like about those specific pets, and it would be nice to hear it from an owner of those pets.
