I’m about to list my house for 20k more than I purchased it 3 years ago. When it goes on the market there will only be two other houses in the same price range (~100k range, with mine in the middle).

What she’s saying is so insanely out of touch. That’s a 70+ year old house and my elderly millennial ass could just afford it after years of saving

I won’t be recomping the improvements I made to the house, that 20k is basically going to the realtors lol

By the time I was a teenager I had some idea that what was happening to me wasnt “normal” but I didn’t understand just how bad it was until I was an adult. My peers would sometimes stare in shock at what I was complaining about, but I think if an adult had tried to intervene I might have understood the severity of my parent’s actions.

Young me was fairly terrified of everything, but I think we would bond over music. I work with teens that have similar issues now, so I know I’d at least be able to put myself at ease lol

Pumpkin tofu is a thing, and tofu can stand in for cheese in some recipes!

That’s such a great name for an acai or yogurt bowl restaurant

You joke, but vegan “honey” can be made from apples and a little lemon

Comically, this didn’t work for the Tiger King

About a month before lemm.ee went offline there was a huge drama about the devs asking various instance admins to advertise their need for donations. Wild that they are already doing this again

He did say his opinion is the only one that matters yesterday.

He’s the CEO of the United States, and the shareholders no longer have the ability to oust him

I went back and forth between something I typically listen to everyday like Spiritbox, and something I love but don’t listen to all the time like Blank Banshee.

Blank Banshee won, Frozen Flame

This is maybe an odd choice, but I’d make Cher listen to it. She was the first major artist to use autotune (in my memory at least). So maybe she’d be more open to the heavily technology-dependent parts of vaportrap too

This same facility had an explosion in 2014 that resulted in death. The fact that they didn’t learn from that and chose to continue to be reckless is sad and infuriating.

he was 'killed in the most brutal way possible

He was reportedly housed on a wing alongside murderers, killers, rapists and paedophiles, whom he (Watkins) branded “the worst of the worst”

It’s fucked up how hard the article goes into trying to garner sympathy for this guy. His crimes are horrific, and he was in that wing because he is the worst of the worst

Fiscal conservatives doing what they do best

I feel like Spotify’s recommendations have seriously gone downhill in the last two or three years. Most of the new music I actually like I’ve found in music comms on Lemmy

I remember having BMI tests before training and once in boot camp, but not after I got to my first duty station. I was quite underweight when I was serving, but that was so long ago that I assumed they’d moved on to a better standard by now lol

It sounds like dipshit thinks BMI is a good standard for fitness measurement

California did sue

Gavin absolute does love the drama and being in the news too, though

The VA secretary already said a doctor can refuse to treat a veteran if they are an unmarried woman, among other things like atheism or being LGBTQ+. I can only imagine how hard anyone will have to fight for their benefits during this administration

I can never decided if Thomas or Roberts is worse. Sometimes I think Roberts has some standards, just exceptionally low/evil ones. While Thomas seems completely bought and paid for

Weird, all I’ve ever heard about is how high the suicide rate is among trans people, nothing about murder rate.

Also weird to consider “trans rights are human rights” to be nihilistic (Political belief or action that advocates or commits violence or terrorism without discernible constructive goals)

Edit: I meant as in trans people murdering other people. Trans people are overwhelmingly victims of violence than perpetrators

He’s famous for creating a conservative organization while in college, called Turning Point USA. The org puts out a lot of smug memes to appeal to young conservative folks, so naturally people made fun of them and counter-memed.

He’s said a lot of very vile things, like “Black women don’t have the same kind of brain processing power” (paraphrased) when talking about how bad DEI is.

My BFF hadn’t heard of him either, but they curate their feeds to be mostly uplifting fluff, and they aren’t terminally online like I am lol. I was kind of surprised that he was the influencer that got shot though, I might have expected someone like Loomer or Fuentes
