        thats kinda annoying. I guess good if you don’t want to see anything about toys. Would be nice if you could have an option of how it parses the terms.

      If I look or go outside, I’ll notice the blizzard, and adapt accordingly (get a scarf, umbrella…). If there’s a blizzard but I don’t even look outside to notice it, that means I don’t have to adapt to it, and thus not even be informed of its existence.

          I mean, I used to watch some of the original one with captain kirk when I was young, but I never saw tng and all I had was cable and ADHD so I never was good at sticking to series

            As an ADHD haver you also couldn’t do TV?

            Me too! People look at me like I’m crazy when I say I don’t watch tv and with the exception of living with an ex or my mother previously I haven’t watched tv on my own in at least a decade+.

            Closest I get is a couple YouTube videos from like vice news or something and then I give up and go read.

            I really like Voyager actually. TNG is probably objectively the best though. With you on the ADHD though.

              I mean it’s better now but like most brain things, it’s pretty bad as a kid, might check out both

        Having run out of my previous set of late night easy viewing media, I recently started watching The Next Generation. Was surprised to discover it is actually a fun show (even the supposedly terrible first season), provided you enjoy the veneer of mild campiness inherent to television of the 80’s-90’s.

        The show is also giving me hope that societal progress can never be stopped, since people were able to imagine this sort of reality in much more restrictive times than we have today. I just hope they’re wrong about World War 3 beginning in 2026 🥲

      Why are you so fixated on what others want to see in their Lemmy feed? I see politics everywhere else, I don’t want to see them here, I may start blocking as well

          Someone who didn’t care at all wouldn’t bother to comment and call someone delusional then proceed to reply to every following thread, I think fixated is pretty apt

            We have different definitions of fixated then, friend. I consider replying a matter on carrying on a civil conversation, but I’ll note that it can also apparently be a sign of fixation.

      Just because it affects us doesn’t mean everything has to be about it all the damn time. Besides, it doesn’t affect us all equally.

      How is that delusional? Blocking out stressors is perfectly reasonable. Yeah you miss out on some relevant news, but lower stress might be worth it.

        No, were on social media, which means anything you do that’s good for your mental health is neurotypical delusional malicious bullshit

        Can’t block out reality forever, as I said some of these things are very much going to affect the majority of people whether they like it or not.

          Not so much that but there’s only so much one person can do to change the situation and protecting one’s peace is important to have the stamina for the long fight we have ahead of us

        You know that the US is a leading world power that can affect other places, right? I’m not even in the US, myself.

      Musk, Tesla, and cybertruck were my most recent additions. I do not have the bandwidth to care about one auto company who is bad at making cars.

        I work as a valet driver and omg do I hate teslas. Even if Tesla was run by Bernie sanders himself I’d hate the fucking things.

        Take a bunch of nerds who’ve never driven a car before and ask them to design one and poof a Tesla pops out. Horrendous. The fact that visually the cyber truck looks like a four year olds drawing turned into real life is just the icing on the cake.
