I can confirm this. I often enjoy your posts and comments. :)
My app says that I’ve given you 54 upvotes in the past month (or two?) since I let it start counting. So definitely more than that. That’s waaay more than I’ve given most people. I think I’ve only seen one or two people with a higher amount, and they’re the kind of person who posts heavily all over the place all the time, haha.
Thanks for the entertainment! :D
Me! This doofus! <:^]
Haha I was thinking the same thing about me! I never know how to answer when someone (who I trust, can be honest with, don’t have to pretend to be cis around for safety etc) asks what my gender is.
I’m like 
“I have no idea. Let me know if you figure it out!”
This was really interesting. Thank you for sharing it here!
Just wanted to share this good bit in the comments here:
I hope that this is good news. The biggest strengths of the Internet are its decentralisation and egalitarianism, and the monopoly of Google search has been the total opposite of those. I am happy to see that other search engines are growing in popularity and I hope this trend will continue. Web search should be as it says on the tin, search providing links to websites, and replacing links with an AI generated summary with a high chance of malforming their content is just not the right way, dangerous for the openness and freedom of the web.
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who could only see that as Dance Dance Revolution, haha.
I think they’re talking about East Germany, though - aka the German Democratic Republic/GDR aka DDR in German. Somebody correct me if I’m wrong, though.
Yes, I can.
It’s definitely Show Me Your Genitals by Joe Lajoie, an early YouTube classic. You have great taste…although a little weird.
Agreed! Or searching for Chromium (which Chrome & Brave are based off of) instead of Chrome, if that doesn’t do it.
Almost! America would be so offended at the suggestion that they “view(s) themselves as European.” That’s, like, our whole thing.
Other than that, you’re right.
I get in those false awakening loops, too! They’re so trippy and stressful.
I usually take stuff to sleep and can’t remember my dreams. This is one of the first time I have naturally fell asleep and stayed asleep in well over a month!
This is probably a factor! It’s super common to suddenly have intense, vivid, memorable dreams (when you usually don’t) after continually using sleep aides and then stopping them. It can even happen with just marijuana. Brains are weird! I’ve experienced the same thing. You’re not alone.
For anyone who hasn’t seen them: Here’s a link to his Guy Fieri playlist.
Seconded! His stuff just tickles me. The Sticky Buddy dub of his still lives rent-free in my head and has since it came out. Especially the excited sound the old lady makes, “the cat’s flippin’ turds everywhere!” and the sound that the device makes: “BLBlblblblblbl” They just pop into my head entirely too often. I adore that silly shit!
I’ve heard ‘Poseidon’s kiss,’ but I don’t think I’d heard that one until today. I’ll have to work that into my vocabulary!
I definitely thought you were just doing your anti-.ml re-sharing thing with this post, too, until I saw your replies to the comments, lol!
You’re so obviously not a repost bot, though. & I really dig and appreciate the reasoning behind your sharing to a variety of other instances :) Some people just like to complain, haha
I love this and I wish it was done more! I’d totally be down to donate, lol.
Thank you for sharing this article with us. I need all the ‘little bright spots’ about humanity like this that I can get!
Damn, I’m broke and disabled and make an absurd amount of urine because of my health issues. I wish this was still an option, haha!
Anywho, that’s really interesting and I don’t think I’d heard of that before. Thank you for sharing! :) I have a feeling I’m about to end up down another Internet rabbit hole 😋
Oooh, good haul! I hope you enjoy them! :) Life’s a lot more boring if you don’t get into a bit of ultimately harmless trouble from time to time. :P
Fuck yeah! I’m really happy for you. (Especially with how hot it’s already getting and how it’s just gonna get worse.) I hope things work out well for y’all. They sound like good people.
Congratulations!! 🥳 You deserve it.
I think the formatting kind of works for it. I read it like they were passionately ranting that big block of text all in one breath.
