The fruit is where we got the word for the color! There was no color word for orange until the fruit started becoming known and traded around the globe. Boggled my fucking mind as a kid when I learned that.
Edit, it is early for me… As I don’t know anything about the origin of aubergine… is it the same deal? And I just need to wake up and catch up, lol?
Lol 😆 Thanks for that. I know we shouldn’t feed the trolls but, hopefully how ever many minutes they have spent responding to me, has brought that many minutes peace to someone else!
No fucking clue where you are pulling this shit from other than your ass. You’re “knowledge of a strangers life and intentions” remind me of my SO when they need their bipolar meds assessed again. I don’t say this with malice, I say this with ptsd from those incidents.
I am not projecting ANYTHING. I responded to a rude asshole stranger online, in kind, after they went off to left field and directed mockery and insults to me and my person, for a statement. A statement from a mental health website, directly copied and pasted.
I do not know you. I made a comment in reference to ~ A MEME IS HUMOR, under a comment, as it did not seem to be related to someone who realized -it’s a joke. A joke is a coping mechanism some people use. It wasn’t directed at a single person to cause them harm, it seemed self directed by the poster, I and others felt we related in ways to an issue, or issues, we cope/deal with. Each person gets to decide for THEMSELVES what works best with them. Unless you are licensed, and a person has indicated they want your assistance or are under tour care, you can’t decide on/force someone else to cope in a particular way. Shit, I and plenty people, have even disregarded our solicited professional as their guidance didn’t fit right, and sought different/further direction from someone else.
Sure now that you mention it, I wish I had been a rich kid. Would have made life a lot easier, who wouldn’t. Especially with my “I feel like I lead a double life due to who I have to pretend to be to the public” issues.
But since you KNOW ALL, OH SENTIENT INTERNET STRANGER guess I’m wrong… about me?
This has now been to much of my life’s time spent on this inanity over a meme comment. I will not be engaging further, as I have real things to do with people I know and care about and who are kind to myself and others. I do wish you the best in getting what you are needing, but I cannot provide it.
It was more like echo-locate echo-locate, than a squak.
Didn’t realize providing information would be considered an insult on lemmy. I figured all the Magats had been driven away by now.
And, I don’t know what meme has hurt you, but you may be in the wrong community. Usually “meme” in the community title will indicate that it is not meant to be serious there, and you should never rely on social media for medical guidance/assistance.
Def did not expect it to get you so angry you go all bird-man and lose your human word-ability. Shit. Hope you feel better and find the right professional for you.
Humor therapy, also known as therapeutic humor, uses laughter and humor to promote healing and improve mental and physical health. It can help reduce stress, enhance mood, and even boost the immune system, making it a valuable tool in various therapeutic settings.
Thank you!
I believe I am hooked and will have to get this now. Dammit. I already have a back log and swore off getting anymore, and this just waltzes in front of my face.
I probably wouldn’t be here now if it weren’t for stumble upon. I had 0 interest in online communities before them. Used it forever (it seemed like) before… stumbling, into their communities. People sharing and discussing the interesting stumbles they found.
Thanks for looking into it! That seems like an acceptable limit. Still not sure if I will engage over there anymore after that. It seems quite chaotic and rather unnaccepting of any discussion of ideas. I will at least be able to give an upvote to meme posters who are funny and hope to encourage them to keep it up!
Yep! That was it! Responding to something about having to “earn being an ally” … I still am not sure wtf they mean, I have to commit deeds before I am friend instead of foe? If I’m an egg, or in the closet, I have to out myself before I can have or be supportive? I’m still am not sure. Chalking it up to I’m too old and they’re to cliq-ey, or, they are just a bunch of assholes. Leaning latter now that I see that those who ask just one question get banned too.
I know through text it’s easy to come off sounding angrier or meaner than intended but I don’t see anything perma ban worthy in my response. Wanting to block me for that, sure… temp ban to cool off, of course. I could absolutely be dick not worth engaging with. Peruse my short history… see that even if I am, I am not going around trolling people or being abusive. I’m just confused idiot with a sailor’s mouth.
Camelot is looking better every minute compared to them.
Yeah, I got, I’m guessing perma banned by Ada(?), from there, because I asked to many questions (just one post) about a statement that made no fucking sense to me, on someones post.
Oh! And aggressive disgusting responses back to my questions were way more hateful and vile than anything I’ve ever posted anywhere, especially directly to another person. Misgendered me, verbal attacks, etc. Went to report that shit, couldn’t because of ban. Didn’t see those folks banned or their comments removed though. Guess hate speech and violence is ok to them, if your not trans enough for their elite dragon-fucking club.
I’m on the spectrum. I get upset when I can’t make sense of shit and DO indeed ask a lot of questions that seem dumb or rude to others. My brain is trying to figure out the rules and meanings of this new idea… get a grasp of the boundaries.
Thought Blahaj would be a safe place to hang around for an oddball like me, all the inclusitivity talk n shit. Big mistake! Honestly thought about leaving lemmy, think I had more response to that than anything else I’ve said on here, and it was truly awful to read. Made me question myself and feel really really shitty for not understanding then getting attacked because my questions are to snarky(?), the reason I usually escape TOO here, and rarely respond or post even then. Then my adult brain kicked in and I realize they are a bunch of idiots who think a dragon is real and providing sage advice, and I’ll just block that shit. Miss some of those memes though.
I said something about it somewhere else… while I try not to get my hopes up about things, is there possibility of an imposter thats been thoroughly looked into? Many past high profile crimes have had people eager to turn themselves in for it. This is pretty high profile.
I want my body donated to a body farm.
I’m just dropping this here too. I don’t want the previous stat being cited as absolute fact when it seems there is quite a variance on who did what study.

Guess it’s all about who is running the survey. And, I did say drive not purchased new.
I’m going to need some data for that one before I believe it. In the US, I have known many women who own trucks. I have lived in rural and urban areas and both had plenty of women who owned and drove trucks, including semi cabs. I could believe less by comparison but not “not many” without some data.
Ride that fear. Conquer that fear. Control that fear. Use it to strike terror into your enemies hearts.
So sorry! Their bright little lives are too short by far. I have a little girl names Dorito who is in her end stages. Trying to make her comfortable and happy for the last bit she has left with us. Known lots of cat people, yours was the first that had a name close to hers that I’ve heard!
Meh. It’s prob pic OP’s cacti. Especially taking the grass background. I have these in my yard, from taking overgrowth pickings from my parents yard. I have to cut them back a couple times a year to keep them from over growing their boundaries or getting fat woody trunks.
In general though, yes. Don’t mess with natural flora and fauna.
Oh fucking hell I hate this thing.
I am going back to school through work. I didn’t have this bullshit in my younger days. It’s made me drop my honors courses due to an asinine endless loop of hell.
Whatever X percent matches as plagiarism. Professor says Y% is calculated for, for template formatting, etc. Still have some highlights of 3-4 words here and there, starting or ending paragraphs, “describe “blah”” answers that no matter how you re-word them something highlights. OK. Get creative with wording and phrasing, rewrite again.
Now I’m pinged as using AI to do my writing. What?! Asshat prof basically has to side teach me where to check for this, school doesn’t have a tool. Fucker, I am old and can write faster than some chatbot. They’ve prob been trained on my whole generations writings.
Anyway. If I cleared the plagiarism, I failed the AI writing check. If I corrected my paper and cleared the AI check, I failed the plagiarism again. Fuck Turnitin.
