I like that your comment is the tl;dr for the above comment

I've made a few text/discussion based posts on a dnd community and got good engagement. People are wrong if you give them a chance.

Be the change you want to see. It's never more true than at the beginning of something like we are now. I've only been here a month or two and I ashtray feel like I've seen Lemmy evolve over that time. It's cool!

Weird that he died from fentanyl at the exact same time was he was being choked to death

I love it, except for the apostrophe.

(Sorry that I had to point it out. Hope it doesn't bum anyone out, but it was a compulsion to correct it. And to add this so it doesnt come across as a dickish tone)

It was the word 'subducting' that really sealed it for me

Space Engine. It's not quite a game, but rather an accurate simulation of the known universe. Anything beyond what we know is procedurally generated. The first time I played it it made me feel so small.

I started at Earth and flew around the solar system, then picked a star and flew towards it. You have to increase your speed by multiples of the speed if light to get them to move. The stars started moving and then moving past, me, but the star I chose wasn't moving. I realised it was actually different galaxy, so increased my speed by many many multiples of the speed of light until eventually it dwarves to move. I flee over to it, and then slowed and explored a few star systems there, I found a binary star system, that was really cool.

Then I had a realisation. If I didn't use the search function, and I just flew around trying to find my way back to Earth, I just never would. I could play it for the rest of my life and be certain that I wouldn't find it. The odds are that small. That thought scared the shit our of me and I closed the game and couldn't okay it again for a few days.

Don't know if that's what you're looking for but I do recommend the experience!

Yep I take milk, no sugar, thanks. If you're pitting the kettle on, like.

Thanks, didn't know most of this! Sad about spinach, and i guess i will have to limit the amount of my mum's homemade rhubarb ice cream that I eat, although I guess the cream would help?
