It is always so weird to me to see an animorphs fan in the wild. I know we’re not super uncommon, but I was super active on Richard’s Animorphs Forum back in the day, and associate the two. I always have to remind myself animorphs fan≠equal RAFian, and calm myself down lol


He’s tolerant of humor, and appreciating an aesthetic. If you have a partner, are they tolerant of you being a humorless curmudgeon with the sensibilities of Grandpa Simpson?


Fairly well. I’ve got funny shirts and a cute boyfriend, I think I’m doing pretty well
More like disgust jail :(


Good. Leave the funny shirts for the rest of us, then.
I somehow missed the twitter craze by accident. Was active on Myspace and then Facebook, but I always preferred my forums. Once I left all other social media, reddit was all that was left, and now Lemmy. It feels a lot more like what I miss, but still isn’t quite the same


One of my favorites, and my BF didn’t get it D:
A horse walks into a bar and the bartender says “why the long face? Are you depressed?”
The horse replies “I don’t think I am”
At which point, the horse promptly disappears.
Now, if you’re at all familiar with the works of Rene Descartes, you’re likely chuckling at this point, knowing his famous quote “I think, therefore I am”
But to tell you that first would have been to put Descartes before the horse.
Idk, I’ve noticed a lot of people on Lemmy that tend towards their 40s or 50s
Took me far too long to realize this was a reference to the movie, and not a random philosophy post about the impermanence of life


My mom and I moved to a new apartment, leaving behind basically everything we owned when I was about 17.
We made a post on Craigslist that said basically “in need of a couch, new apartment, single mom, can’t afford much but can pay up to 30 dollars”
We got dozens of emails. People telling us we could have tables, chairs, pots and pans, clothes… They furnished our entire apartment for nothing.


You know how if you’re reading a headline from the onion and you mistake it for real you’ve “eaten the onion?”
Is there a name for the reverse phenomenon? Where a real headline reflecting actual reality is so ridiculous that you reject it out of hand as satire only to realize it was genuine? Regurgitating the onion? What’s the name for this?


I did Nazi that joke coming…


Grew up in Hampton Roads (Portsmouth, Newport News, VAB mainly, but lived all over). It’d be so cool to just walk down to the strip, step into the ocean, and slowly grow to the size that I could walk to Europe like I was walking across a small, shallow pond, then shrink back down to size, get my passport stamped, and have some German beer and sausages before coming home. Lol


Star Trek is huge 'round these parts. One of the larger servers is trek themed, and there’s a whole buncha trek coms on and off it


… I am stunned that on Lemmy of all places no one has yet said star trek!


There are dozens of us! Dozens!
I actually quite like the MCU, especially Loki and Doctor Strange, any of the more magical-ish stuff. I even really like the avengers and Captain America stuff. I just have to shut off the political side of my brain sometimes to enjoy them, otherwise the Americaganda gets to me and bugs me.


For years, my dogs favorite toy was a nerf branded football made for dogs.
He would cuddle it, and whenever he got excited and actually chewed it, he would then whimper and cry and cuddle it more, because he hurt his baby
I searched and I’m not finding one, but my search function often misses smaller communities. I’d love it if there was one
