I'm a millennial and dibs has been around at least since I was a kid.

Resources for apostates (ex-religious people) in need. There are some housing resources I think, including LGBTQ+ specific services. Maybe have a look, I haven't looked a lot into it but maybe it can be of help.

When I was still being taken to church I won the door prize at youth group (church for teens) one night during a special event we were running (some thing to encourage people to invite their non-believing school friends and show how "hip" and "fun" they were, there were raffles and video games alongside our usual "live music", skate ramps and bbq). The prize itself was a mobile phone. I was so happy because I didn't already have one, but ultimately my parents decided I couldn't have/use it until I got a job to pay for the credit. I did eventually get a job at KFC and was able to use the phone.

Another time I was visiting NZ with my parents and we were touring the base of a mountain and the guide was like "guess the height and whoever gets closest wins this pen", I won but my mum made me give the pen back because she thought I'd cheated somehow? Idfk. Still a bit salty about the pen.

I don't know... I wonder if non-dairy milks are included, like oat, almond, etc? Or maybe it includes obscure milks, sheep, camel?

There's a reddit.world? I don't think I would choose that. I don't know, what you (and the few others) posted about hexbear seemed negative? I don't understand Marxism or anything like that. It just seemed to me like everyone was against it and I figured that I wouldn't be welcome there because I'm not sure I share their views, and I'm not sure how it works on the app either, if I can have both sides available to view at the same time.

Wow. Thanks for the info. Seems like a place I don't want to be after all.

 

I see a lot of communities hosted on hexbear.net on trending but when I click the link it says there's nothing there. Why is this the case? I'm using the Voyager app, but I' not sure if that has anything to do with it. Is there a way to make them visible?

Is that a Lackadaisy pin? The pins are cool.

I found out when looking into the term "tomboy" that a "tom" was a term for a boisterous and unruly boy. The word "tom" does come from tomcat as others have said because unneutered tomcats are often loud and unruly. I suspect Peeping Tom has a similar "tom" origin: an unruly boy that peeps on girls.

My 2yo cat likes to lay on the carpet and pull herself along instead of walk

Huh. I'm only a few episodes in but it seemed promising so far. Oh well.
