“What does THIS button do?”

On the bright side, it probably wasn’t AI-generated.

Here you go. I’d consider these beginner-friendly because they’re not focused on tech or politics.

The nice thing about using that Monty Python quote is that if I don’t like the answer, I can then mime throwing myself into a chasm, and thus extricate myself from the situation.

I have a very traumatic past with past people and my dad so that’s where my lack of love and self esteem comes from. He understands that.

It takes years to really understand another person’s trauma.

I suspect that this trauma is what’s making you feel so bad now, and the guy in question is just the conduit. Consult a therapist who specializes in both medication and talk therapy.

Let us rejoice, for that error rate creates new fediverse members.

My grandparents had a World Book Encyclopedia set. I started reading it around 8 or 9. That told me all I needed to know. (this was before the wwweb).

Hey, congratulations!

Yeah, it really helps a lot to have a “gym buddy” to work out with, or else it’s just too easy to never get started.

It’s not that hard to eat better and work out. After a couple weeks it becomes routine.

Get a friend to do exercises with. Do calisthenics at a friend’s house. It’s very hard to work out by yourself, but very easy with a buddy.

I browse New on Subscribed til I run out, then maybe I do Scaled on All.

Awesome, thanks for the info!

Someone on this Mastodon instance started to follow the tycoon lemmy community

Fascinating info. I’d noticed that posts from the lemmy community !cyberpunk@lemmy.zip were showing up on Mastodon. For example: https://mastodon.social/@Hammerjack@lemmy.zip/114286540525130294

But how do I follow a lemmy community from mastodon? I tried a couple things but nothing worked. Thanks for any additoinal info.

I’d be tempted to argue that it hits what it was aiming for. It’s meant to be a cheap raunchy Porky’s rip-off, and it succeeds. I suspect Cruise does a good job in it - the year before he did Taps, and the year after he did All the Right Moves.

Losin’ It is a 1982 comedy film directed by Curtis Hanson, and starring Tom Cruise, Shelley Long, Jackie Earle Haley and John Stockwell. The film follows four teenagers trying to lose their virginity. It was filmed largely in Calexico, California.

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 18% of 11 critics’ reviews are positive, with an average rating of 4.3/10.[3] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 51 out of 100, based on 4 critics, indicating “mixed or average” reviews.

Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert criticized the film on their TV program At the Movies. Siskel called it “dreadful” and “predictable.”
