I'm 36.
Do yourself a favor. Dont drink alone.
Sound like a tall order? Work on that. Your liver is important. You'll be alone a lot. You get in that habit now, it'll be with you when you're 40, and your liver will not be a fan.
"Work on that" what do you mean?!? -- you get home from a shit day at work, or you stop at a bar on the way home. You get drunk to numb the calcified agony of the working life. -- that's what I mean. There are other ways to numb thatee less maladaptive, they just take more effort and take affect less quickly. Move toward it for me tak health.
Do you spend hours on the couch scrolling on your phone? Try to go on a 2 mile walk every day. 4 is even better. Your heart will thank you. Your hips, knees and ankles will thank you. Listen to a podcast. You can still binge content, just... Get your body moving. And get your eyes to focus on the horizon every now and then. It's good for your eyesight long term.
Get yourself out of breath, heart racing from pushing yourself physically at least once a week. Preferably nearly every day.
Take up an artistic hobby. Write bad poems. Write bad stories. Write bad songs. Draw dumb cartoons. Draw bad portraits. Sing your best, but sing. Dance.
Stretch.
Brush your teeth twice a day.
Floss.
Do planks.
Side planks too.
Drink water.
You should be able to do 20 pushups.
You should be able to touch your toes.
Sprint as far as you can at least once a month.
Just don't get complacent being complacent.
Invest $1 for every $1 you put in a savings account. Put $1 into a retirement fund for every $1 you put in that savings acct too. Oh, and $1 in a Roth IRA at the same rate.
Got an extra $100? $25 to savings $25 to investing, $25 to Roth, $25 to 401k.
Do that til your savings ~= 6 months living expenses. Then stop that fund and split it 3 ways for investing, retirement, retirement.
Use your investment (and if things go south, savings) for a down payment on a house to minimize your mortgage.
Edit: in debt? Have more than 1 source of debt? Focus on the biggest one. If you can make minimum payments on all and have money leftover it goes to the largest debt/worst interest. Pay em off one at a time til your chins above water.

Corporate murder.
Oh boy. This guy's about to find out that there are two justice systems. He's about to find out him and Donnie aren't in the same club.
Unbelievable. There's not much else to say that hasn't been said.
You're phenomenal.
lmao what a massive douche.
He doesn't, he just wants everyone else to.
The real joke would have been
A free campaign with a multiplayer menu that allows you to spend $100 or play slot machines for hours to acquire a T-shirt for your character.
Handling gish gallops is easy for anyone ready to field them.
You pick the easiest thing they spat out to dismantle, explain that they're gish galloping so you'll only address the thing you chose due to time constraints.
You let them give you the meatball to knock out of the park and point out their shit rhetorical devices. Then it's obvious the next time they do it, and you do it again. Then they're naked.
Holy shit can you imagine being there and having any knowledge whatsoever of the Yellowstone caldera? There would be a very real moment of fear that my life was about to just abruptly end.
Traumatic.
Go get these people some beers.
I don't like him.
Politically, it's a very smart move.
Cause I'm still voting D here, even not liking him. They're trying to pull all the undecideds they can.
He doesn't have a "lock her up"
... And his opponent... Does.
And, money. He's got a bushel.
Throw the fucking book at him.
Harris/Obama oh man talk about kicking trump in the balls.
Lol you can totally do it in a home server application. It's even okay if I'm a e-commerce store to use wildcard for example.com and shop.example.com. not a best practice, but not idiotic.
Not idiotic unless you also have a hq.example.com that forwards a port into your internal network...
...where ftp://hq.example.com takes you to an insecure password shield, and behind it is the SSL certificate, just chillin for anyone to snag and use as a key to deobfuscate all that SSL traffic, going across your network, your shop, your whole domain.
The UK had an entire vote in just 6 weeks.
Our information apparatus (print, TV, social media, etc al) is ... Far superior to theirs, in terms of efficiency (not in terms of human dignity, relax, I am aware).
I feel like folks are forgetting just how addicted to information we all are, and how easy it is to get the whole fucking country talking about the same thing at the same time.
Trust me, the advertising budget for Squid Games ain't shit next to the DNC war chest.
Eyedea & Abilities - Color My World Mine
Legend has it, Eyedea wrote these lyrics when he was 14 years old. What the actual fuck.
midnight club: the unsung hero of arcade racing.
This is an appreciation thread. All 4 games are iconic to me. Way underrated.
To me, midnight club is everything need for speed wanted to be. Need for speed had a few hits and many misses. Midnight club was 100% hits. And they aged incredibly. They're still fun as hell.
If you never played and you dig arcade racing games, go play. It's an open city racing game. Variety of racing types, endless challenges, and really great mechanicsi just wish it was as.pophlar as it deserves to be.
Worse and worse
Anyone else getting worse and worse service with chat gpt?
I am getting repetitive incorrect and lazy answers and then rate limited. Idk what I'm even paying for at this point. It's happened the last 5 times I've used it over the last week or so.
Am I alone?
screen blackout, app still functions.
Im on a galaxy s22+. This started happening the same time the upvotes downvote buttons started to glitch in the UI which I have also posted about.
This issue is more annoying. When I am mid response, I'll often leave the app to get more accurate info in what I'm trying to say. When I come back to Lemmy, it's all black. Nothing. But my button presses are still registering.
If I go to the app switcher (bottom left android button) thing, and reselect Lemmy, it fixes and the display returns.
But if I react by pressing the back button, I lose my response, I lose the post I was responding to, I sometimes can't even relocate the thread I was in easily.
voting buttons bug
I need to hit the upvotes and downvote buttons twice on the main page.
It will flash it's color as I press on press 1, but then quickly revert. On second press, it behaves normally.
Tom Brier sight reads Super Mario World Ending Theme - incredible ragtime improv
This guy was something special. Not too many prodigies can improv like Tom Brier. Someone posted Nyan cat the other day and it reminded me of the incredible body of his work.
This guys relative made this YouTube channel when he realized Tom could play anything and turn it into a full length song ad libertum, AND that he was incredibly out of touch with pop culture. Most of the time he is completely unfamiliar with the song being presented to him. You can tell how much he enjoyed this song by his enthusiastic laugh at the end 😊
Guy sadly was in a bad car accident in 2016, and can no longer play. These videos just make me cry now, but God damn does this mean deserve keep being found and revered.
feature request: custom feeds
Right now there are three feeds available to me, that, as far as I can tell, I have minimal control over.
It'd be rad if there was a way to add feeds, and for each feed, be able to manually select communities I'd like to see.
This would be great for news, porn, sports, pornography, adult content, and so much more.
Your Personal Metal Deep Cuts
Last week we had a great thread about metal without growls. In reading suggestions, and conjuring up some of my own, I re-realized a bunch of stuff.
I wanna see your top 3 metal deep cuts.
What do I mean by deep cut? I mean the formative shit. The stuff you found and loved along the way but lost track of, that when you revisit you go "fuck what happened to these guys?" The ones that helped guide you but fell off the face of the earth (or just your radar).
Guess The Episode
I'm hoping for the 'genius at work' designation to represent the most difficult, but solvable, stills.
I think by guahing where y'all have been at, this might stump you, but there is enough info. Prove me wrong and the category gets forever more difficult!
Guess The Episode
This is bordering on 'hard' I think? This seems about as difficult as medium should be. Or as easy as hard should be? 🤔
guess the episode meta
Ive enjoyed this little game and would like to keep it going.
May I suggest a naming convention? We've been adding what round were doing at the end. Let's stop that.
Instead, I propose we formalize it a little to help it gain momentum. That sounds stupid as I type it but... Hear me out. I'm not saying like scoreboards and stuff. Just difficulty ratings?
Post title: Guess The Episode - [easy/medium/hard/Genius At Work]
Idk, let's talk about if we want more of this game, and if we want to widen it's appeal
