for me, i wouldn’t immediately assume that a person using ‘gay’ in that way was a homophobe but it would definitely be a red flag. i’d make a conscious effort to avoid it but i’ve done it occasionally too so i understand the habit.

Duchess@lemmy.worldto Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•There's a tiny tree growing in this parking lot.1·2 years agoidk anything about plants, does this tiny little sapling have any chance of growing into a full tree, will it die or will it stay small?
i also largely don’t mind crowds if it’s people i’m not expected to interact with, however loud groups or people bumping up against me makes me fucking rage. sometimes if i need extra space i’ll spin my backpack around and wear it on my front.
looks like they just messed up rows 1 and 5. easy enough to do if you’re not thinking while you’re putting up the stickers. also this is terrible advice for exercise and would lead to injury.
Duchess@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Hard to follow [#lemmy](https://mas.to/tags/lemmy) posts from Mastodon. I decided to follow [@nostupidquestions](https://lemmy.world/c/nostupidquestions) to try it out and each comment that someone po3·2 years agowhile it’s cool that mastodon, kbin and lemmy can all talk to one another, the format of mastodon just doesn’t play nice with kbin and lemmy. if it works for you, that’s cool, but i’d recommend separate accounts for microblogging and thread-style social media
i’ll stand by the fact that one of my favourite books of all time is the phantom tollbooth. the best children’s content is something that can also be enjoyed by adults.
Duchess@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•When you're the only one in the room not buying into Walter's bullshit2·2 years agoi haven’t watched the whole show but tbh i get the feeling a lot of people didn’t believe walt but didn’t want to seem impolite when approaching the situation
Duchess@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Scare You! A community for sharing short scary stories.@lemmy.world•To Cinders1·2 years agohey, no pressure. i’m only here so often to kill time during work lol. you’re providing content for free and this kind of thing is supposed to be fun for everyone, not just the lurkers.
so is this an ai thing or is someone really in there taking fucking dramatic photos for him to post on twitter?
Duchess@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Scare You! A community for sharing short scary stories.@lemmy.world•To Cinders0·2 years agoit’s definitely different to get the balancing act right. i think another way you could approach this is to play more into the emotions. the times i’ve been in extreme emotional distress i’ve completely shut down, not eaten or cleaned myself, and i think drawing on experiences like that could be a way to enhance the story also.
Duchess@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: the difference between "wary" and "weary"0·2 years agohuh, you’re right. i’d assumed it was related to the verb ‘leer’ meaning ‘leery’ would mean intimidating or perverted.
tbh the dubious accents are the funniest part
Duchess@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: the difference between "wary" and "weary"1·2 years agoi remember watching a documentary on… something, idk and a woman described herself as ‘leery’ around a suspicious character. i’m near certain it was a true crime doc and don’t want to make fun because of that but the transformation of wary > weary > leery really is something
Duchess@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Scare You! A community for sharing short scary stories.@lemmy.world•To Cinders2·2 years agoi like it, although it’s more sad than scary. it’s also a little vague, a dash of some sinister details and it would be great.
Duchess@lemmy.worldto Memes@lemmy.ml•Four apps and counting, how is everyone else doing?3·2 years agoi switched to thunder after connect kept crashing whenever i tried to open it. so far it seems alright but i can’t see any way to vote on comments.
Duchess@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How do you feel about men wearing kilts? any brand recommendations?4·2 years agoi’m completely neutral. in a retail environment i’m really not sure whether i’d even notice, especially if it’s already a hot day. you might get a lot of stupid questions from people who don’t like anything outside of their norm though
man, rif is fun was my reddit app of choice. sad to see it go.
I quite like Dank Pods’ Cash Converter videos to feel like I’m browsing around with him and laughing at the bizarre things he finds.
Duchess@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•speaking of alternatives, what brand do people hate that actually has a decent alternative?10·2 years agoi’m an absolute cola addict and unfortunately nothing else scratches the same itch for me. i am a fan of iced tea though
perhaps, although gym types usually aren’t very big on listening and being kind to your body.
