My buddy wants to play Baldur's Gate 3 but I don't feel like paying for it.

Are you...Ready For It? Introducing !taylorswiftmemes, a community for memes about Taylor Swift! Let me "drag [you] headfirst, Fearless" into a world of hilarious memes about Miss Americana herself. I promise you that it will be a Love Story at first sight. Just don't be a Foolish One and let me [know] You Were Trouble When You Walked In to the community, or you won't have good Karma and I promise you that as the Anti-Hero, "there is nothing I do Better Than Revenge".

For example, if a lyric contains "that you", it ends up like "thatchoo". One example of this I can think of is in Karma by Taylor Swift (I know, I know, but it's one of the most popular songs I listen to). The line where she sings "Karma's a relaxing thought/Aren't you envious that for you it's not?" sounds like "arentchoo". It doesn't happen every time but it seems to happen unless you're consciously making an effort to not make that sound. An example of this is in Love Story where she sings "That you were Romeo/You were throwing pebbles", and it sounds like if you were just talking to someone and said "that" and "you" separately.

I'm just wondering if this happens in other languages with different combinations of sounds? It probably happens with other sound combinations in English too, but this is the easiest example to think of.

Let's use lemmygrad.ml as an example. My home instance is lemmy.world, which I see has defederated from lemmygrad.ml. If I post to a community on lemmygrad.ml, will everyone be able to see it?

What if the opposite is true? What if lemmygrad.ml is the one who defederated from lemmy.world, and not the other way around as in the above example?

I'm just a little confused by how federation works. I know that I won't see lemmygrad.ml posts on my All feed due to defederation, regardless of who defederates with whom.

We are normally good at masking bc its expected of us but I am so tired of it. I'm so tired of having to pretend like I'm someone I'm not.

Then when we mess up and let our guard down or make a mistake and accidentally show people we are ND, we get dogpiled or yelled at. It sucks especially bc we sometimes don't understand social mores, so even when we are confident that we are acting the way NTs expect us to, we can end up wrong and still get yelled at.

It's awful bc we are never gonna create a more equitable society if we can't have these types of conversations with NTs. We have to show them that bring ND isn't an insult, but that's when we get yelled at or made fun of.

I support the writer's guild strike because they are not part of the bourgeoisie. The same can't be said of a lot of these rich actors who own a ton of capital themselves. So on the one hand, it kind of seems like the bourgeoisie is fighting the bourgeoisie on this one. On the other hand, not every actor in the guild is as successful as Tom Cruise, so some of those striking actors are working class.

Kinda annoying clicking on each individual post to expand it.
