you dropped this, /s

Yeah, 2 if I need a traditional pencil, and 5 for everything else

Pentel ENERgel pens.

But if I had to choose, 2 or 5. I have 3 at work and while it is nice, I don’t know if it has the same kind of staying power 2 or 5 do.

It’s okay I got a chuckle out of it, 6teen was great but they reran it way too much back then.

Make it red, white and blue and then it’ll really be a US Bee

Kevin Rose is one of the co-founders of Digg, and Alexis Ohanian is one of the co-founders of Reddit. Considering the “success” of both sites it could be a big deal, but more than likely it’ll just try to pass itself off as a Reddit alternative that’ll eventually go to shit or implement a bunch of AI and crypto bullshit.

Both work, I just feel that admittance would have been more amusing than just being stupefied.

it would’ve been a little funnier if the had dolphin said, “It’s a mask” after being proven wrong

What a miserable way to live.

no, it’s shitty AI.

Post what you want, comment on everything, make your own community, etc etc etc

I see this all the time like some kind of catch-all for complaints about how effectively dead this platform is.

Not everyone is cutout to pioneer any kind of community, let’s just assume that OP takes this advice to heart, if their interest/hobby is niche enough, what’s even the likelihood of someone else tumbling upon it? Let alone contributing. Maybe this hypothetical other person wants to contribute but they see that it’s only one other person posting anything and they figure, “what’s the point?” Maybe they don’t agree with OP’s opinions and would rather find another “community” where their opinions won’t be contested even if it doesn’t exist. There are a myriad of reasons why, this is going to happen with every channel, fandom, interest group, etc. it’s a natural part of the process. The problem lies in the simple fact that there’s fucking no one here, there are enough bodies to come and stay and go and continue the cycle until a community is established.

Yes, there are plenty of channels or w/e they’re called here, but most of them are effectively islands in a sea of shit you don’t care about (or bots.) They’re not managed, and there’s nothing going on in them. Why is it up to you the user to stop what you’re doing and make something out of nothing? When there are already communities that do exist on other platforms, even if said platforms are trash like Reddit or Xitter are. The majority of users in large communities are lurkers, they might not actively contribute, but they do share content with their own friends or interest groups and that is what’s more likely to bring people in, those people might be people that do end up contributing, or they might be more lurkers. But it feeds into the growth of the community either way.

Most of Lemmy doesn’t have any of that though, because there’s no one here.

the pov format is inherently flawed because it’s almost never actually from your “point of view”

It’s also better than some of the actual “content” people put out there.

I don’t think he’s covering it out of shame or anything like that, it seems more that he’s grabbing it to remind himself of his message, like “be strong.” Plus, we don’t see a panel of him having eaten a donut so it could be interpreted either way, the comic artist tends to lean towards positive messages with a cynical twist so I think that’s intentional.

DON’T EVEN THInk- *coughs and clears throat*

Don’t even think about trying to escape, the chains are far too thick.

what a nice shark, only eats jerks

Now imagine if he was sober, Middle Earth would’ve been fucked.

For a single piece sure.

I presume the idea here is that you have access to their full library. Personally, I fail to see why I would change my wallpaper enough to warrant even a free app to change it, let alone 50 bucks.
