Italian sausage. No, I know everyone likes it, but that's still not capturing its full glory: it is the best topping, but most people are like 'yeah it's alright but it's no pepperoni'. No, it's better than pepperoni, and therefore underrated.

I had a similar experience camping with my family as a kid outside of Wichita Falls, I must've been 9 or 10 tops. I woke up one morning in the camper of my dad's pickup instead of in my tent. Groggily trying to figure out what was going on I started to crawl out over the tailgate only to have my dad's hand come around the corner, grab me by the face, and shove me back in, which was sufficient to wake me up enough to realize that there were 15-20 full-sized bison ambling through the camp. One of them even came within a couple feet of the truck. Needless to say I practically crapped my pants because I had never been anywhere near any kind of animal that big before.

I live in Texas, all of my representatives are boot-licking pro-Trump Republicans.

Indeed. The enshittification of the internet proceeds apace.

What happened in July 2023? Was that the APIpocalypse? That didn't really affect me cause I barely use mobile.

Yeah, those mofos are just batshit now.

I heard some grocery chain was experimenting with rfid chips on all their products so you can just load up and leave and sensors at the door detect what you're carrying and charge you the appropriate amount automatically. Personally I'd rather pull up to a register and have it show me a list of what's in my cart and the total price rather than automatically charging, but otherwise it's not a bad idea.

Ooh, that sounds good too. Mm, now I'm hungry. :P

Ah, fair enough, thanks! // Yeah I looked into Hexbear briefly and it didn't seem like my jam, but I'll check out slrpnk and dbzer0.

This is like all those people taking private jets to climate summits. It's just absurd.

 

So yesterday I received a 7-day ban for 'encouraging violence', for saying that Luigi Mangione did not deserve to go to jail. It was obviously bullshit, somebody got a little hair-trigger on the new directive from ~~Der Fuhrer~~ spez or something, so I appealed. That appeal was reviewed and the temp ban lifted and the 'offending' comment restored, but 11 hours prior to that I got another message that I had been perma-banned for violating Reddit's rules with my 'other account(s)'. Well that's also bullshit because I've had exactly one (1) account in the 14 years I've been on reddit, so I appealed that too, and thus we get to the cherry on top: I am no longer banned, I can post and such again, but they sent me the above message saying that my appeal had been denied and that the perma-ban was staying in place. But rather than linger in reddit limbo, I think I'm gonna switch permanently to lemmy. 14 years worth of curating subs will suck to redo, but oh well, life is change.
