there used to be all sorts of things. like forums and meetups. definately should be able to still find plenty of youtube videos. You can even make a sling from string using macromae which might lead to another hobby.
closest I ever saw to a dedicated xmass store was a figurine place that always had an xmass section which became practically the whole store come november.

slinging. that is making a sling and learning to throw things with it. get some rubber balls large enough to not go through the fence at a tennis court and go to the court when no one is there and practice.

yeah that is why I did not use the word great. not all that bad is not so great usually. like that pizza was not all that bad.
its just a dropdown. The largest ones for me are meme, sports, and non english communities. Once you have the communities filtered out then you will only get new ones once in awhile.

my grocery has chicken for 5 dollars and some sandwiches for a buck. back when fast food places had dollar menus these could not compete but now they can.

boy that is a can of worms. my mom sorta spoiled the relationship with all her kids. Whats funny is she is really not that bad. If you have distance from her. My father in law was kinda the same and early on my wife and I bonded on how our parents were. Essentially there is a type of person where if they have any type of authority they are aweful but if you are completely out of their control then they are not all that bad.
Im one of those who are not necessarily looking for the federation to be the meta for social media. Im pretty fine if it stays cozy.
I am definately in the blocking makes it good camp. I don’t view blocking as a bad thing. I view all and block communities that im not intersted in. There is nothing bad about them but its something I have just zero interest in. I keep a lot around that I have very little interest even.

yeah but the person who was just coming out of the heat of the moment can get a bit frustrated when you talk about it because your sorta really talking about how to perfectly handle it. Of course everyone hopes that maybe by talking about it then next time in a similar situation will be ready to act in a way with better outcomes.

did not know a movie had ever been made.

maybe that is my problem. I though butter was traditional but maybe im not using high enough heat. I guess when I think fry I think like sitting in oil. Almost deep frying. as opposed to a light coat. but yeah I guess fry an egg. I don’t think its your english as much as my common word usage. I always remark my worst grades in school was foreign language and my second worst was english.
- HubertManne@piefed.socialtoAsk Lemmy@lemmy.world•What reason to you, is a reason to drop a friend for?English2·22 hours ago
Its hard to say. I technically have never really ended any but sorta have. One was not like a close friend but regularly hung out. Heck he was kinda the central guy to the group. He was a “typical” guy and by that I mean he had that marrying kind philosophy and would talk about scoring with chicks easily because they were fat. It was bad enough but as a guy you would have to really limit your associations if you cross all of them out. They usually are part of a crowd but not good close friends. Anyway he had a sister and she had a friend and we hung out at his house so like they would sometimes hang with us if we had an interesting enough activity like a game or movie. He had a brother too in the group. Anyway the moment his sisters friend turned 18 he pounced on her. She was kinda inexperienced and naive and he completely bullshitted her and used her in a mean way. Its something hard to relate because like Im not privy to what they are doing in private but you can tell. Dumped her after his fun and it like ruined her relationship with his sister (I think the thing here was his sister likely told her she is crazy and should not get involved with her brother and then washed her hands of the situation). Anyway it was just aweful. Might as well have been my sister. Just avoided hanging out with the group if it looked like he was present and eventually we got older and it gets pretty hard to see people you like so avoiding is a peace of cake. Got invited to his wedding though ironically and since other people I know had ended up going but that is the last time I saw him.
On a different note I had a close friend but we were kinda different morality wise. Thing is he kinda, I think, used me as a sort of morality measuring stick. To see what was to uncool/not ok. As such it was like he liked to dance in the grey areas and was always kinda feeling out my line. It was maddening. Well one day he got pissed at me for not doing something I said I would do for him. Basically I flaked but I had just started dating a girl so I hope some of you get how that can be. Anyway he “broke up” with me. Later when he cooled down he wanted to hang again but im like. no im good. funny thing is he predicted someday we would not be freinds in this type of situation because it is how I am. I tend to be a person who gives folks a lot of rope (in real life anyway) but if they want to hang themselves on it that is fine with me. Oh he also was wierd with chicks (and workplaces) but he was the kind that did not like not being in a relationship. So he will start a new one if he can before ending the first and honestly im not sure he ever ended the first himself or if he just generally got caught. He would go crazy trying to keep a girl from leaving him though. Get desperate as all out. It was kinda sad. The worse they treated him the more loyal he was but he was always looking to trade up. As I said he was like this with jobs to. Would stick with the crappiest shit and not leave but would leave a great place for an opportunity that ended up being shit.

yeah sorry. did not go through the coments.
- HubertManne@piefed.socialtoAsk Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why are all services centralised?English1·24 hours ago
me2 but I take the we would hate them being here as in having the larger mass of humanity in the sphere would ruin it. Im not 100% sure it would but often when people talk about growing the federation im like. Im pretty fine if it stays the size it is. I don’t feel we need more people to come but for those who find it hopefully they will be good additions.
