I drive through Medina county a lot and still I’ve only seen 2 yes signs and those were at in front of large farms. On the flip side I’ve seen maybe a dozen no signs, even in the countryside. For those not in the know, Medina county spawned Jim Renacci so the sign ratio is surprising.

I love the knob but hate that in 2021 they ‘upgraded’ the auto start to being in an app.

For me personally, I’ve been able to “learn” to respond with a few generic answers but that still doesn’t change the over analysis after the fact.

Did I seem genuine enough? I wish I could tell them how I really feel. Why bother responding if it’s a lie? I hate lying. Etc.

So yeah outwardly I appear to be good at small talk. (Heck I even worked sales for a few years) but internally it’s draining.

Yes, but I think it’s as @Candelestine@lemmy.world says. As any form of social media grows past a certain point, the more everything becomes ‘averaged out’ to the lowest common denominator. IE the things that get upvoted the most end up being only things with mass appeal across the breadth of the user base. From past experience we know this is by and large rage-bait.

Of course this can be mitigated to an extent by carefully curating what you’re blocking and subscribed to. Furthermore defederating can effect this but I’m not yet knowledgeable enough to guess how effective.

Yeah, before I looked up the translation I figured it was “whore’s son” which is close enough.

Similarly, the felt version of this. Nice for if you need to move something, ie furniture (we have wood floors).

Still haven’t seen a “join lemmy” but gotta love “Digg 4 Lyfe”

Edit: It actually says DGG 4 LYFE.

You missed the best part, in the German Flag, they’ve written “u/spez ist ein Hurensohn!”

Translation: u/spez is a son of a whore/bitch (Google says bitch, commenters are saying whore.)
