Simultaneously I don't like when people are mean to me. I like when people find me endearing, and point out the ways that I'm different. It gives me a chance to say "oh yes this is why I do that" which feels cathartic (because it validates my position) but also because it gives me the opportunity to improve it (through debate) and it helps the people who learned from me because I can improve myself and my only reason for improving myself is if the new thing I'm learning is better than the thing I used to do which means the people who learn from me are improved and the people who best me argumentatively are improving me. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────┘ --- #2 fediverse/4072 --- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────── I like games that test my reflexes I also like games that test my wit but most of all I like games that test my patience with strategy ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────┘ --- #3 fediverse/3180 --- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────── I love skywriting. it's so cool to see your words fade into dust after being seen by everyone around. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────┘ --- #4 fediverse/547 --- ═════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────────── @user-395 You are very welcome.

My favorite food is "melange" also called "gruel" by the less culinary people in my life. It consists primarily of a rice or noodle base, plus a bunch of other ingredients (usually sauteed) that are quite nutritious. Then, you season in a way such that it tastes delicious and savory and BOOM you have the perfect food. Well, not as good as steamed eggs, but still pretty good. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────┘ --- #16 fediverse/2882 --- ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────── ┌───────────────────────┐ │ CW: disordered-eating │ └───────────────────────┘ in regards to my food habits, PLEASE do as I say, not as I do. for your own sake. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────┘ --- #17 fediverse/5607 --- ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────── ┌──────────────────────┐ │ CW: silly-politics │ └──────────────────────┘ I bet if Cascadia secedes then maybe the bad guys will send their brown people to us.
