Just cancelled, have been a customer since 2015 or so.

I’ve said many times I would gladly pay more, if it were an elective extra cost that goes 100% to the artists you listen to.

So $11/mo to Spotify, then I could elect to pay another amount of my choosing that gets split up based on what I’m listening to and goes 100% to the artists. I don’t love it but it would be an acceptable solution to me.

A better solution would be for Spotify to be fair and pay artists accordingly from the start… buttttt Capitalism, and Spotify is publicly traded so no chance of that ever happening. I’m out.

Definitely those were in every classroom when I was little, but my dad had one of these bad boys at home, I remember the weird ears things on top.https://lemm.ee/pictrs/image/de84e279-3106-42b0-b17c-fe61283e73fb.webp

I really wish vintage didn’t apply to things from my childhood. But here we are.

It makes sense when you realize that his (and so many like him, all following Trump’s lead) only driving force is to own the libs. That’s the whole platform, literally nothing else matters.

Enflame the culture war = votes. Because that’s all that matters to so, so many Republican voters.

It is! You can go to the Steam store > New & Noteworthy > Most Played to see current player counts for the top 100 games. Hades II is currently #6, ahead of Helldivers even!

I’ll add to this because I haven’t seen it mentioned.. the fact that you posted here at all is telling. I’m no expert in this subject but isn’t reaching out for help a pretty strong indicator that you don’t want to do it, you’re looking for reasons to go on? Like, nobody really wants to, but sometimes the pain of life is just too much and people feel like they can’t take it anymore. So it’s not that you want to die, is that you don’t want to feel such pain. I’m sorry you’re feeling that way, stranger.

22 is rough. I’m 36 and me and all my friends agree that early to mid 20s were by far the most turbulent time of our lives, emotionally. I hope you’re able to make it to the better years ahead.

If you’re looking for a good place to use that egg nog, my dad always makes egg nog french toast on Christmas and it’s fantastic!

Have you tried any of the remote options like betterhelp or similar? I have a buddy who is employed through one of these platforms, the flexibility for both client and therapist seems really great. It’s not at all a case of having sub-par professionals on these sites, if that’s a concern.

If you simply prefer in-person, that’s understandable too. Just know that the options are out there, location shouldn’t limit someone’s therapy options in 2024.

Nice that he calls users to Lemmy at the end!

That’s really incredible, I love the deep reds and the contrast between the drop and background. Then of course there’s the capture of this millisecond of time that manages to convey emotion and elegance, somehow.

You wouldn’t happen to be an otter, would you? No judgement either way, just curious.

Threads doesn’t yet support ActivityPub, that’s supposed to come down the road. Some instances have preemptively blocked Meta though, yes.
