If it's a busy one, would anyone even notice? Most people just get in and get out without even making a full circle. I think you'd be virtually anonymous.

Unless someone else was riding the same roundabout for fun. Then you could invent little games to play with them

Thanks for the links. I will read them. I'll admit that my first reaction is to assume that speaking directly is rude, but I'm ready to do some unlearning.

Genuine question, because I don't have a confidant that I can comfortably ask this to, is that the general opinion of people with disabilities?

Lemmy hopescrolling!!

Here's your content, open up!

It's my cat yawning, but it looks like he's screaming at me (which he does do around 17h, his supper time).

Back in my day it was a desktop vs coffee table laptop debate.

I started reading books and mags while pooping. I like it. Highly recommended.

Just got to have system to make sure you don't do anything unhygienic to your reading material. I make sure to set it down before I touch myself. I touch myself.

Hmm that is a very good description of how I use social media. Fill up unstructured downtime, or to bridge a gap between two other activities (god forbid I go thirty whole minutes without stimulation lol)

Then sometimes just hours and I come out of it feeling like total trash

Plus, voicing your opinions helps a lot to filter people (I'm struggling a lot with this though).

This is massive. "Filtering" is the perfect way to put it. If you don't risk saying something potentially disagreeable, then no one will ever know who you are.

That goes for both repulsive and inclusive ideologies, I guess, but I definitely prefer the latter (this is an example of one of your "filtering" statements - now spectators to this conversation know I value inclusivity).

Can't read a book at the office? Working through a book whenever the queue was empty was one of the few pleasures of working retail/call centre

Time to grab your board (web navigator) and surf (follow hyperlinks) the web (more commonly, the graphical "internet"). Totally rippin the gnar, my gender indeterminate dudes (check out wikipedia). Yeaaaahhh (yes, emphatically)!!!

Not American, but a furby surrounded by Biden's team would still be preferable to Trump to most people, so I'm not sure this changes much. Americans around here seemed to mostly be in the "hold your nose and vote for Biden" camp anyway. Not sure how representative that is.
