I would have at least visited museums and the likes in cities I can't afford to visit, as well as making food with all the tasty high quality ingredients I can't afford.

Maybe drive around on some expensive motorbike just to see how it feels. If my financial situation at the time was especially dire, maybe take a "loan" from a bank somewhere before unfreezing time.

You'd have to be a saint to have that power and not do anything illegal. But one thing I would never do is fuck over regular people, only corporations and big businesses. After time unfreezes, those can recover from whatever I did and I doubt I'd but a significant dent in their profit margins, but regular people would have to live with the consequences of what I did, so that's a no go.

To be fair, I only joined .ml because .world wasn't a thing when I joined and srlpnk and a few others had closed registrations at that time

AllYouPlay and another online game store wouldn't let me register with a protonmail address

There were 2 online game stores that wouldn't allow me to register with a protonmail account, AllYouPlay and another one that I can't recall, which was weird to me

I have no idea why, but I get horrible heartburn from Coke Zero and Pepsi Max. I don't get that from almost nothing else.

Some sites and services won't accept accounts with e-mails outside of the mainstream ones though.

I usually browse by all, but you're right, I've seen people defending them. Though thinking they would be saints if they had the power is insane to me.

Hexbear and Lemmygrad though, have incredibly weird takes to me, especially on Ukraine.

Wait, people actually think Russia or China would be any different of they had the US' influence? That's crazy. It's like folks never heard that quote that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Any country that ends up with that amount of influence will inevitably resort to bs to maintain that power, even if it was a harmless, pacifistic country like Switzerland.

I think that's a mindset issue. If you come at it with "I won't be able to learn this, I'm too stupid", you won't give it your all and you will self sabotage. Besides, nobody is just stupid. You aren't stupud either! Read up on intelligence types and you will certainly feel like one of those is yours, even if it's not academic intelligence. Don't give up!

Everything that needs to be done for society to maintain itself can be done if everyone works 20 hrs a week. The rest is just to allow some other people luxury lifestyles.

You are not only working to mentain a functional society, you are also working to constantly grow it (each year more stuff must be made, more money must be earned, more of everything) it and also to create a very big surplus for the rich. We also burn perfectly edible food, ruin perfectly wearable clothing and make electronic devices that intentionally break in a few years to get you to buy another one sooner just to get the 1% more money. If we didn't do all that and they lived normal, non-luxury lives, everyone would have a lot more free time. If everyone worked only 20 hours a week, we'd make enough to sustain our society.

Basically how subreddits like r/LFG worked.

There are so many great song in my mother tongue that virtually nobody aside from the relatively few speakers could realistically even come into contact with. I'm certain all of you non-English speakers here can relate! I linked one of my favourite songs, what are yours?

Hey y'all! I've been thinking about starting a group of Legacy. For those who don't know, the system is a Powered by the Apocalypse game set in a Post-Apocalyptic setting of any kind (I was thinking a zombie apocalypse) where the players take control of factions. You shepherd your community through the ages and you also take control of significant characters from them to solve various threats to your community. You take decisions at both the faction and personal level, and you both cooperate and compete with the other players for resources.

My timezone is EEST. If you're interested, leave a comment or a DM and I'll be in touch!

In the old days of a few years ago, I used The Trove to find all I needed. Is there any replacement? I'm specifically looking for niche ttrpgs.

Preferably one that's not a rom hack, though I dig those too. I'm looking for something a bit harder than the originals and maybe a bit more mature, but still fair and whimsical. I'd like a game with pokemon from as many gens as possible, and fakemons are fine too.

I've just made a community for posting links and keeping track of game updates. Feel free to join and to post about upcoming or recently released updates to your favourite games! https://lemmy.ml/c/gameupdates

A lot of game specific subreddits post update announcements, which were how I heard about stuff like that before I switched to Lemmy. On here, there's not enough people yet for communities like that, so I'm looking to see how many people would be interested in a community that collects and shares news about game updates

She also has a little plush fish that she always brings to me for safekeeping!
