My dad is in an assisted living facility and this is unfortunately the type of food he gets. I have to send him groceries every week just so I can be sure he’s getting enough to eat.
Guess what?

I don’t know if this counts as “mildly” infuriating, I’d be freaking OUT with a traffic jam that long, especially if I had somewhere to be at a certain time!
Yes, this! I made some of my best friends on Yahoogroups as a teenager. I felt SO alone in the world before I found out that my fandom has a whole ass community online, and it was truly magical to feel seen for the first time.
It regrettably did get toxic. And I really hope we can avoid that here, but it won’t be without intentional effort.
I was thinking the same, I remember being peeved I couldn’t get on Facebook in 2005, because I was only in community college, and therefore not fancy enough to join.😆
Regardless, it’s a nice sentiment. Every time I sign on I find myself smiling with how neat this community is.
Yeah I gotta say, “Webrings are back!” was not on my 2023 bingo card. But I’m not hating it by a longshot! It feels like a nice hybrid of the lil Angelfire/Geocities sites and yahoogroups/onelist. Usually fandom communities were hand in hand with those two platform elements, and I’ve missed that tight-knit community feeling.
^^ facts. It took me a little bit to figure out the community search, but it connects to all available instances.
Ugh that reminds me of trying to talk to a Replika. “I have a gift for you!” “Great, what is it?” “(Hands you a box)” “…cool so what’s inside the box?” “Wouldn’t you like to know!” “Umm. Yes. Yes I would like to know what’s in the box you just gave me.” …and so on and so forth until I rage-quit the app. 😆
