I wish this link and others like it worked on Jerboa. It always cycles back to my home feed and I just end up momentarily wondering what could have been before moving on.
Jerboa is my winning app since I signed up to Lemmy. However, I'm still not totally pleased with it and find myself switching between that and thunder. I'm excited Sync is coming here and I'll definitely preregister but I'm pining for my previous Boost
I don't remember prince having any other name than Ƭ̵̬̊, which was unpronounceable.
On a related note, Sinéad O'Connor, as a public figure, may have been ok with the media continuing to use her professional name. I'm only basing this off the article stating she also used her birth name publicly. It is interesting though, because Mos Def goes by Yasiin Bey both privately and publicly. But then we still call Yusuf Islam Cat Stevens, while Muhammad Ali's birth name is more of a trivia nugget.
Are you implying that the media didn't use her chosen name because she was Muslim or because she was a woman? I'm not trying to be condescending.
Could it be because she tore up the Pope on TV like a fucking boss?
If they rerelease Speed Racer as a Hot Wheels movie I'd be fine with that. More people need to see it
Brb gotta take a xit
I rented a car and by the time I got to my destination about 45 minutes away, I realized it was infested with ants. Ants all over the place. I called Budget to complain, they put me on hold. I was on hold for the 1h15m drive back (due to rush hour traffic) to their building. She answered the phone right as I walked into the building. I couldn't help myself and I just started shouting.
"You put me on hold for nearly 90 minutes. It took less time drive all the way back here from 2 cities over than for you to answer the God damn phone. There are fucking ANTS IN MY CAR! Look at my fucking clothes! ANTS. Get me your supervisor right fucking now"
Everyone in the line in front of me were either shocked or laughing as I cut right past them. She turned as pale as can be before a big white dude in a tie ran out of his see-through office to check on us.
"Sir I need you to calm down, what's the issue?"
"I'm covered in ants! From one of your cars! They're on my fucking face!"
Anyway I got a massive vehicle upgrade and 10 free rentals valid for 5 years. This was ten years ago. I had never rented a car and I just couldn't believe both the comedy of it all and how much I was raging about it.
Drove back another 90 minutes in rush hour traffic to pick up my partner and our baggage and hit the road. I made her drive.
I saw motorhead at sxsw and it awesome. A power circuit cut out on stage and only Lemmy's amp and mic worked. As the crew troubleshooted, he walked up to the mic and was like, "does anyone know any jokes?" He then proceeded to noodle a shitty walking bass line like every other bass player in the world when that shit happens
I'm shocked it has a <50 score. I don't know anyone who didn't like it. Haven't seen it in 20 years though
You can't learn perfect pitch, but you can perfect relative pitch
I've been locked out of my PayPal since 2005. On their end my account is somehow both locked and nonexistent, creating a loop of error messages. Last time I tried to have a real human fix it they basically shrugged, and that was about 7 years ago haha
What communities should I be avoiding?
