I planted a raised bed full of different varieties of kale, my two pots of blueberries are going crazy already, and I’m trying to get micro clover to take over the “lawn” area. The last part is tricky because I desperately want it to consume all the empty spaces that turn to dust in the summer, but it’s currently a gunky clay that sticks to everything. Fingers crossed!

Someone needs a decaf.

Rest easy, Dave. And thank you. 💛

Same! I believe that others struggle with it but I can’t wrap my head around why their experience is so different from my own.

Need? No. But sometimes when I’m standing in a pool of people and despair and I can’t picture things getting better, I kind of just want a BFF little buddy like WALL-E or BD-1 who just gets me without judgement, and doesn’t require me to be its caregiver.

Damn this is scary. How are we so dependent on the distribution (control) of software, especially healthcare related, through two corporations: Alphabet and Apple. I am not so naive as to believe the open internet or freeware is free of nefarious actors, but the testing and checks and balances would play out far safer than this for-profit stranglehold.

I have no idea how people who aren’t tech-interested, but dependent on these systems, stay sane. What a miserable way to live life.

From the Beehaw sidebar: “We do want you coming here and sharing links to news articles, websites you find, starting discussions, connecting with others, and in general doing what you see on other social media websites.”

What if the focus of Beehaw and/or Lemmy in general is not as a link aggregation platform but instead a community of topic discussion? People are rewarded for posting links to articles with upvotes which only gives incentive to continue posting the same not-read content that they think the respective subs will like (upvote).

Instead, we should be rewarding people who are actively engaging with the community. Not broadcast posting the way it goes on mastodon or IG, etc., but actual back and forth interaction with the community.

Maybe take away the ability to upvote a link post and reserve that for the actual discussion parts that take place?

^ The Libby app works great for audiobooks, too!

This is a great idea! I’d considered getting cartoned eggs but exploring no egg options might be better all around. Thanks!

Wow, so beautiful and unique!

It’s so frustrating that this is true. I use devices until they’re dead or at risk of serious compromise before getting another, but the only options are ones that I can’t even hold comfortably with one hand. I’m seriously considering the Jelly 2 at this point.

Glad you posted this because I’d completely forgotten I got the weird notification, but work things distracted me from trying to figure it out.

“Damnit, Ricardo.”

Everything about this is magical. 😍

🤣

Oh wow, these are gorgeous. I can’t stop looking at the delicate, but also not, details with each flower. Congrats! And good job!

I gotcha. It’s a bit fiddly on mobile but see what you mean. Thanks!

Ah, thanks for this. I am on mobile so had to remember to expand the sidebar in order to see the subscribe button.

Thank you for posting!

To anyone else: Any thoughts on when/if we’ll be able to subscribe to communities on kbin from lemmy?
