A box of cereal is like $6 and all sugar. It will provide 3-4 bowls of cereal for that price, with no actual nutrition. If you can afford a box of cereal a day, you can live on instant noodles instead for like 3 days and have the 20 for a brand new rice cooker. Or just go to the thrift store.

Cereal is not a poor person food. It is not nutritious, cheap, or filling. It is an expensive box of sugar. I get that it can be hard to imagine conditions we haven’t personally experienced, but it can’t be THAT hard to do basic math and put yourself in that situation for one second to understand that eating cereal for every meal is not cheap or sustainable.

Yeah, generally. Is ‘terrible twos’ a saying in your area? It is in mine. Toddlers suck.

Plenty of people actually did leave reddit, myself included. It wasn’t the API tax though, that was just the beginning…

I needed this today. Thanks.

‘I don’t understand so it doesn’t exist’

I think this is the most privileged comment I’ve read since I got to Lemmy. Congratulations on being incredibly sheltered and out of touch. /s

That wasn’t the problem, though. If you have multiple it can take some and not others, and also it’s inconsistent as another commenter mentioned.

I think you mixed up your left and rights, bud.

This is the same decision that would’ve been made before covid about any other vaccine, so why be a donor in the first place? Genuine question, I don’t understand.

Having a bunch of posts taken from another site with no real interaction with OP or anyone else isn’t driving traffic here, it’s boring the people who come here for discussion. The actual user posts will get drowned out by the huge number of reddit scraped posts. If something is interesting and fits a community here, post it. But scraping reddit to lemmy isn’t really helping as much as it might seem.

Because abusive relationships force people to stay in them for reasons people who haven’t been in that situation could never understand. Seems you haven’t been, so you drag people who have. Women, specifically. Fun!

I work in HR. Im also working on getting the fuck out of HR. Not into anything techy, though. I came here from reddit just before rif died.

Why would I have someone live for free in my house who doesn’t contribute to the expense of upkeep? Ie, a freeloader. That’s what rent is. Sorry, a partner doesn’t expect their SO to pay their way for them just because they pay a mortgage payment instead of a rent payment. Add to that, now since it is a mortgage payment, any repairs and other incidentals are paid for by the owner as well. Does this person get to just break things and expect the partner to pay for it? That’s another thing rent covers. Why have a partner that is more expensive than being alone? Why have a partner at all?

I really used reddit to lurk and scroll when I was bored. If I can’t use the app I’m used to, there is no reason for me to return. Especially with the way they have been treating the community, I havent been back for about 3 weeks. I downloaded a lemmy app and put that in the same spot as rif was, and I havent looked back.
