The 90's mentality of "Everyone on an Internet is a predator out to rob you or worse" left a mark on me-
I always use a fake name and innocuous, random profile pic if possible.

These daus you're still screwed if someone's that determined, but at least screw the corporations like this.

The mockingbirds are so lucky the hummingbirds don't care, because they are shimmery little warrior badasses.

I honestly do try to live by WWJD. Its a pretty legit way of thinking.

But the problem is, trying to give a chance to everybody tends to earn a lot of "tsk tsk" from many Christians around here.

BirdEnjoyer ,

Oh, I meant IRL.
The worst was when I got treated like I was stupid for not just assuming that someone with atypical facial features had some kind of mental disability.
I mean, it was apparent that they did once I began talking to them, but like Hell am I just going to assume that based on someone's looks.

I haven't interacted with Christians around here.

Part of the reason they get so high up on nerd sites (And Reddit at least started as a nerd site) is that they hunger for power, and the right people are too shy to seek power themselves.

This would all be greatly relieved if communities asked for communities to nominate other members, and asked for the type of folks who are the types who would mostly only consider the position of asked/ or if they were write-ins.

People with the capacity but are looked over because they maybe lack the ego or self confidence to take such power.

This works especially well in smaller communities under 4K users or so, which kinda falls apart in our Big Internet world, sadly...

Similar energy to this songthis song

This seems like such a wretched inevitably. I mean, I guess we're living it with phones, but it seems so unnecessary with cars.

Is there really no market for the same boring car, with minor efficiency tweaks, for, like, ever? I coulda lived with my 95' Accord forever if the parts hadn't been too expensive.

Do es the market really not want that, or do the manufacturers prevent it from happening?

Any Automancer please explain, I'm not car enough to understand.

BirdEnjoyer ,

Even before data sales, though, a baseline, universal car never happened. Was there never a market or was a market never allowed to form?

Or perhaps the tech in a car really does advance faster than I understand? But then how would retro cars be street legal?

BirdEnjoyer ,

Only if the raisins are treated with great care. Otherwise, they're bitter, sour or tough as heck, and the cookie is better just as Oat.

Oat Cookies are underrated, and you 100% know they're home made.

Add a touch of Cinnamon and you blow some people's minds

Or just... these but oreos.

The trick for these cookies is sour cream, and the flavor for oreos comes from black cocoa.

Your post is deliciously dangerous.

And also detrimental to my search history because autocorrect decided to "help" when I was looking up black "cocoa" and I am decidedly nonsexual asexual.

I just had to reset my phone. And now I remember ehy I had that feature turned off.

BirdEnjoyer ,

You can freeze the dough. It was a very economical way of satisfying a sweet tooth, especially if you have an air fryer.

BirdEnjoyer ,

So you have strong feelings about trains?

BirdEnjoyer ,

Can we instead encourage people to post receipts with real game boxes and cartridges to enforce the idea that there are absolutely legitimate reasons to use emulators?

Pokemon in particular is the most emulatable series out there, between romhacks, randomizers, and upscalers on the 3D games.

There are definitely pirates, of course, but I feel like the public at large isn't aware enough of the fact that emulation is often a good thing.

BirdEnjoyer ,

I mean, would it, though? having so much of the body involved in this way? Do you understand that, for birds, basically anything under the head can be misconstrued as intimate contact?
(This is the most awkward part of bird husbandry 101, especially when trying to teach children on how to properly handle them)

It'd be the bird equivalent of the Omegaverse!

Which sounds to me, a nonsexual asexual, like a nightmare. But is probably actually a viable xenofiction romance subgenre for someone willing to get a little weird. Well, from what I understand, most romance novels are a little weird?

    A game about the hover boots from OoT if they were the shit instead of just involuntary ice skates.

    Like, everyone loves your kicks. The bad guy loves your kicks. They're fun to use, so the player loves your kicks

    BirdEnjoyer ,

    Well, I got a phishing call from Ohio so that's not a problem anymore...

    BirdEnjoyer ,

    I mean, I would unironically dig that aesthetic updated with the bluejeans meme. The coat could be super comfy if it didn't get paired with aweful breeches/bloomers or whatever you call those janky ass knickers.

    ...But the meme would probably just Jeg up the lawn and wig

    Buahaha, that got a laugh outta me

    Fanfiction Community Rocked By Etsy Sellers Turning Their Work Into Bound Books (www.404media.co)

    Etsy sellers are turning free fanfiction into printed and bound physical books, and listing them for sale on online marketplaces for more than $100 per book. It’s a problem that’s rattling the authors of those fanfics, as well as their fans and readers....

    BirdEnjoyer , (edited )

    Whatever happened to internet etiquette?
    You (or the person commissioning the book) ask before you do this kinda thing!

    Etsy is supposed to carry the torch for that kinda small community vibe of mature adults making money from their side business.

    These folks deserve to get a bit flamed, because this feels like 2009 drama we should have collectively figured out forever ago

    BirdEnjoyer ,

    Do you know of good alternatives?

    BirdEnjoyer , (edited )

    I don't know enough about the fediverse, but maybe a Magazine for legit online artist shops would be a good idea.

    Maybe I'll try making one once I've spent enough time to understand what I'm doing on here.

    BirdEnjoyer ,

    My pup had a favorite toy- a little Dachshund stuffy- and she went and dropped it in the toilet.

    So, of course, it got one hell of a sterilizing bath, but somehow cleaning the thing just ruined it for her.

    Villain origin story right there.

    "Keep Circulating the Tapes" of the current era

    BirdEnjoyer ,

    I never got to play this character very long, but I had this idiot rich draconic bloodline Sorcerer whose parents had hidden the fact that they were a Tiefling from them.

    As far as they knew, they were a half-orc with a skin condition, born when their father was shamed and banished, and their mother was swept off their feet by a gallant orc of the hinterlands. (lol, no, the parents are evil AF demon worshippers spawning teiflings into the bloodline, and they're too dumb to realize it. No hot orc babydaddy to speak of)

    They cut off the tail and cauterized the horn buds really early, and basically the plan was to see if they discovered the Draconic Bloodline before or after getting hit by a strong enough healing spell to restore their demonic features.

    They probably wouldn't be able to understand the idea that they could be both part demon and part dragon, and part Good aligned and part Evil aligned creature, to boot. Comedy gold in the right party.

    Smartphone Keyboard Information Bonanza: What's available and what's best for your needs

    Howdy. I wanted a central place for information surrounding smartphone keyboards since there have been some changes recently to a few of them. I hope to keep this post afloat over the long term so we can share experiences, information, news, etc to find the perfect smartphone keyboard for ourselves and help others do the same....

    BirdEnjoyer ,

    I use Gboard with the one handed option always enabled, so I can keep my keyboard exactly where I want it on the screen.

    Some health issues make excessive keystrokes painful, and my phone is big enough already. I have it adjusted to about the keyboard size of a Galaxy S2 on screen keyboard, and to the right.

    I keep Hacker's Keyboard if I ever wind up playing something old school, though I usually wind up playing Pathos if I get an itch for NetHack on the go.

    If anyone has a good option for keyboards you can force to keep on top for Accessability/gaming purposes, though, let me know.
