I lost entire weeks of my childhood playing at being an ant.
Now that I've typed that out, ~~bug~~ big chunks of my childhood suddenly make more sense.

Just hop to another instance that doesn't have the same difficulties as .world. Reddit 2.0 on Lemmy requires us to be compliant.
Aww, this brought up a fond nineties memory.
I got busted installing Shit Talker (1.2 by Jaundice!) on all of the computers in the economics classroom and scheduling them to disparage the economics teacher throughout the day. In my defense, he was an idiot.

Maybe our passion can keep the AMOC going.
I'm seeing $1900, but guessing $2500+ once the scalpers get to scalping. I don't intend to buy one, but I hope those assholes get fucked over.

Ugh, I knew it'd be Jordanlund before I saw the instance. I like them as a fellow forum user, but they should NOT be moderating anything. They remove comments they disagree with and use the moderation reason as a "you're wrong and my opinion is the final word now" field. Absolutely bullshit.
I couldn't find a more appropriate place to post this. It's a bar in Reykjavik. Cool place, would recommend.
Thanks for running this, I had a great time!
