  • Yeah, it is.

    I can support myself but, no one else barring a few piddly donations I make once a month to wikipedia and NPR. I make enough to have a teeny bit of fun on top of my rent. I can buy my tools, work on my car and be the dude I've always been.

    how do you work on your car in an apartm-

    I drive to O'Reilly's and tear it apart in their parking lot. They see it as advertisement. Win for me. Win for them.

    I've come to accept that retirement might be by way of Smith and Wesson, but I'm 37, helping who I can, doing what I can and just trying to be, man, and I think I'm doing an ok job.

    I see my folks, visit my mom, pay my taxes and stay out of most people's way. When the time comes that insurance doesn't pay out for some such terminal illness, I won't feel that bad about going out early. I don't have a god to disappoint.

  • A lot of people dive in as if the entire fediverse has the same level of nerve as 4chan.

    There are a lot of sensitive people here. The best thing I learned through my dealings with Mastodon is to be kind, and lurk before hitting that comment button.

    The level of discord on the fediverse waxes and wanes depending where you are. There are conversations I'd never have here, that I'd gladly have elsewhere with no ill effects. The right words for the right group of people.

  • I've gotten to a point where the quality of a PS2 game is higher to me than most AAA releases. I mostly play retro games, more open multiplayer games that don't block users like TF2(and TF2) and indies... so, no. I don't really need Windows for anything.

  • That's not really an option for me. I have torn feelings with my family. My cousins are all my age and like brothers to me, but were taken in by the Trump bullshit like everyone else around me.

    Die or lose my family and eventually die? I dunno, man. I might toss a quarter over it.

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    How are my fellow Americans preparing for the upcoming apocalypse?
