at least everyone sees the same thing when they click that button. tiktok will literally send you so far down a niche that you’ll try to talk to your friend about some huge trend you’ve been seeing for a week with millions of views and they’ll have never heard of it before because their feed was giving them an entirely different trend
i’ve actually moved over to feeeed on ios recently and i’ve really liked it. it has a ton of granular customizations down to even editing the navigation bar itself. would recommend!
I’ve had this book on hold at the library for weeks and i’m so excited to finally read it
It’s been a pretty common spice in vegan cooking for many decades now. it’s dystopian that this is how it’s being used now but the actual existence is pretty cool
Here in southern california the only eggs I have even seen on shelves are my usual small farmers market eggs, which are now the same price or cheaper than the grocery store. It has been astounding me that the better and now cheaper option is the one not sold out. Humans really are just psychology multiplied.

If everyone went to work every day for 8+ hours for the direct benefit of the members of their community, the economy and the community would both be incredibly healthy.
If everyone purchased the tools that other people need to live and work and decided to rent those out instead of doing their own labor, the economy and community would fail.

A landlord can pay a manager to take care of the properties they own for them.

i joined lemmy today because i deleted reddit during the API purge and just replaced it with RSS feeds of news orgs before finally digging in to trying this out. and this was literally one of the first comments i saw. incredibly ironic and very hilarious
i don’t love the implication here that politicians are corrupt due to mental illness. they can be perfectly average mentally and still be corrupt because corruption is an innate and ever-present exploit of human psychology. empathetic people can be mistaken of where to place their empathy. mentally ill people can be a better option for a public office than someone else who is neurotypical, it all comes down to their platform and record of reliability. disability should not be mutually exclusive with ability to govern.
