One year, my parents bought all their adult children the Echo for Christmas. Mine got lost in the mail. So they ordered me another one. Also got lost somehow! I was the only one who didn’t get one. Christmas blessings!

SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyzto Casual Conversation @lemm.ee•What’s the strangest thing that’s ever happened to you that you still can’t explain?English371·2 months agoOkay so I’ve told this story before… completely changed my perspective on my beliefs.
One day, I was making food for my young one. He was maybe a bit over 2 years old? Maybe 3. Anyway, I made him food and said “anything you don’t eat, I’ll put into a baggie”.
He then asks “what’s a baggie?” I show him the sandwich baggies in the drawer and then explain that grocery bags can also be called “baggies”, say “see?” then showed him a plastic grocery bag from the cupboard.
His eyes get all wide then ge starts sobbing. Alarmed, I ask him what’s wrong and he sobs “No baggie!!! No baggie!!!” I asked him why and he says, still crying, “My old mommy… she put a baggie over my head and I died!” He then immediately stops crying, like nothing had happened, and went to play with his cars. I tried to coax him into repeating what he had just said, like “what? Hun, what do you mean? What did you say?” And he looked at me like I was bonkers and just said “huh?”, apparently not remembering what he had said moments before, even after I brought it up at multiple different times of the day.
All of this was completely out of character for him, and nothing like that ever happened again. He was never told about death or shown it in any media at that point or anything else like that, so I was baffled.
It definitely made me rethink my stance on things like reincarnation and stuff like that. It was… too strange. Never could explain it.

EDIT: I read the question wrong, but I’m keeping it up.
SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyzto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do Americans not understand what has happened?92·2 months agoI didn’t do this. I voted for the less evil of the parties, I advocate for the handicapped and disabled, I support LGBTQ+ rights, I give resources to those who can’t afford healthcare or houses. I did what I fucking could.
This is like blaming the individual for pollution. Who’s contributing the most to pollution?
It sucks. It sucks so fucking hard. But we need to keep going and not cease our efforts in the face of despair.
I’m doing what I can. That’s what I can do, and that’s what I will do.
SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyzto New Communities@lemmy.world•Is there a Lemmy equivalent of "r/bestofredditorupdates"?English415·2 months agoThis is unfortunately why I don’t think the fediverse will thrive: the majority of folks on here are so privacy-focused, that many of them refuse to tell personal stories or antecedents.
It’s extremely unfortunate.

SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyzto Patient Gamers@sh.itjust.works•Mid game review: Superliminal (2019) PS53·2 months agoRight?? I was spooked throughout the entire experience. Kept expecting something horrific to get me the whole time! Lol
So glad I finished it, though.
SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyzto Patient Gamers@sh.itjust.works•Mid game review: Superliminal (2019) PS56·2 months agoIf I may… I’d actually put this game at the top of my list for one of the best games of all time.
Is the game itself a masterpiece? No. Not necessarily. I feel it’s very flawed in many ways. And I’ve seen many people shit on it for “squandering its potential”, which I believe is nonsense.
However… I’m not sure most people understand, but if you go into it as a sufferer of PTSD… it becomes 1000 times more powerful.
I didn’t put the puzzle pieces together until recently, actually… but around the same time I finished the game… my nightmares stopped. Gone. I still get “bad dreams” from time to time, but no absolutely horrific nightmares like I used to.
DON’T GET ME WRONG, I AM PROBABLY A RARE CASE, AND I’M NOT SAYING THAT THIS GAME WILL “”““CURE””“” ANYTHING OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT!!! All I’m saying is that, for me, it made things… easier.
I love Superliminal. Think I always will. I’d strongly suggest that others play it, as well.

I’m incredibly fragile and seeing people
I care aboutbe hurt by all this hurts me incredibly much.I’m now avoiding the news and doing my best to instead be a positive influence, help where I am able, offer support, donate what I can, etc.
I refuse to let evil fucking idiots steal my joy.
