Baba Yetu, the Swahili opening to the game Civilization 4. Wikipedia says it's the first song made for a video game to win a Grammy.

First thing I thought of, thank you

I split with my ex of 10 years (together while I was 18 thru 29ish) and took for granted what support I did have. I'm lucky to have had parents and adult siblings on my side.

You're doing a heavier lift than I had to. I'd have been in a bad place if I had no support. You were dealt a shitty hand. But the support is there, and you're on the right track to healing by seeing your therapist. Future you will be able to look back and see this for the learning experience it is. Today my wife and I tease past-me about some red flags I ignored about my ex.

I want to share Tragedy + Time by Rise Against with you. It may come across as intended for the bereaved, but its words do not gatekeep feelings based on the cause of them. (It says "she" once but don't get hung up on the gender.) In fact, I am tearing up right now at the thought that you, feeling what you feel, might find some solace in it.

In support of the statement that Dubya was worshipped, one can see LITERAL WORSHIP in the documentary Jesus Camp. Children at evangelical camp being led in prayer to a cardboard cutout of him.

This is my daily struggle. I mean... the ties are cut. The struggle is essentially grieving the loss of a parent as if they were dead.

I feel a little better when I hear that others have, to some degree, done the same.

Chew story

 
 

It's me.

 

No one would start intentionally shopping for a phone priced that high just by looking at this ad. It has to be a more literal clickbait.

UPDATE: I did not consider the currency. The number of responses mentioning currency tells me that's what I overlooked. I am no longer even mildly infuriated and am therfore a liar 😅

 

"Secret" is tongue in cheek.

We know people flash the white power hand sign when having their picture taken, as if it isn't a racist dog whistle.

The Bloods have a hand sign. I'm impressed that one can spell the entire word with one's hands.

Jeep drivers have a cutesy hand wave that signals a common identity with other Jeep drivers.

AFAIK there's no hand sign that espouses the Eat The Rich sentiment. There's an opportunity to create something new where one doesn't yet exist.

If "Eat the Rich" produced a secret hand gesture, what would/should it look like?

I understand the argument of "This doesn't help; instead write to your congressman or volunteer to burp newborns." I get that, but this is independent of that.

This truly belongs in AskLemmy but their (justified) temporary ban on US politics seems to discourage this question.

 

Today at work my team rolled our eyes at the latest uttering of "This is a living, breathing document." I then joked that maybe we could give the spreadsheet some warts and some hair. That got me thinking - are there skins/mods for Excel that are cartoony and ridiculous? A cursory web search only turns up things that look "professional".

Have y'all seen that nasty skin banana? Doesn't this world have that, but in Excel? I'd like to see each cell have not-so-straight lines, some cells with little bumps/warts here and there, and little gross hairs in the corners. Bonus points if they pulsate. A pivot table could maybe have an appearance like it's protruding out of the sheet, like a cartoon character who swallowed a safe and you can see the big square on their belly. Filtered rows could look like old skin wrinkles. "Excel illustrated by the one(s) responsible for Ren and Stimpy," I guess.

And that's just one gross hypothetical version. How about themes like Lisa Frank, or the menu from a Final Fantasy game. Think about the worlds in Super Mario Bros 3. Couldn't we have spreadsheets that are themed like a desert, an ice world, or a jungle.

I'm running out of ideas but hopefully you get the picture.

DO THESE EXIST?
