Isn’t rumble that right wing YouTube alternative?

Haven’t heard of Lexx before, adding it to my watch list. But it makes me wonder what other sci-fi I’ve missed. Gather, Nerds, and enlighten me, please.

Turtles with a half chub!

Y’know, I genuinely thought I was gonna be the weirdest one here, but now I’m not so sure. There’s at least competition.

My two favorite foods:

“Tuna” casserole that is refrigerator cold. Tuna in quotes because I rarely ever actually add the tuna. It’s just egg noodles, cheese, cream of mushroom soup, normally with broccoli or peas in it.

Ramen Noodle Garbage Bowl: ramen noodles, drained, with cheese, mustard, curry, smoked paprika, blackened kielbasa/smoked sausage, and diced fresh tomatoes or halved cherry tomatoes. Often has other random ingredients. Add just enough boiling water to get everything to mix well.

I ended up on a massive Whatsapp group populated primarily by Indian women after I took a content writing class a few years ago. Made several very good friends. I’ve asked them about the whole Indian scammer thing. One of them said she knows a few, and they do it because they literally don’t have other options for employment. Which makes sense. Rampant, unfettered capitalism forces people to make decisions that go against their conscience for the sake of survival. I feel bad for scammers sometimes, other times I feel less charitable when they’re scamming my dad…

Whole situation just fucking sucks.

That truly sucks. I’m sorry you’re going through that.

Just one thing real quick, though, just in case. My entire family has had similar issues, and for every one of us* it has been our gallbladder. Also for every one of us, they have refused to check our gallbladders. My mom was told ulcers, which she had none. Had to have emergency surgery when her gallbladder was on the verge of ruptured. My brother was told it was his drinking (±1 drink a week), quit drinking for two years with no improvement. When they finally removed his gallbladder it was so bad it literally fell apart inside him when they tried to remove it, and he was in the hospital for a week *I’m currently going through it, and they’re telling me it’s acid reflux.

The gallbladder is the medical bigfoot. Doctors refuse to believe it exists, I’m pretty sure.

Can’t even blame em. Started out in lemmy.world and switched to startrek.website the first time .world went out and someone explained to me how that works with being overloaded. Haven’t looked back sense. The local timeline is awesome, the federation is awesome. It really showcases the benefit of a federated service. It made Lemmy such a great replacement for me, whereas before I was struggling to get into lemmy.
