If you don’t mind me asking, why don’t you like this other girl? Was she mean to you?

I’ll be honest, this is confusing as hell, so I might be misunderstanding.
I think it’s a little hypocritical that you want it to be a chill, no drama space with the bros, but you also want to exclude a girl because you see her as competition for the guy you like who is in this group.
I understand you had a bad experience with her, but you said that the guys don’t know that. From their perspective, you’re just excluding other girls for no other reasons than seemingly to be the only girl in the group and perhaps to have exclusive access to your crush.
I’ve made a lot of IRL friends online and at work.
If you’re between jobs, consider doing something like Americorps. People of all ages do it, not just young folks, and its temporary. I think of it as summer camp for adults, but you get paid and in some cases housing.
Back in 2017 I was super into VR. IDK what the communities are like now, back then the demographics were older, but I got a big social fix from it. An oculus quest 2 or 3 is affordable. Almost all the best games are social, “face to face” talking. It’s like having a public arcade in your closet.
I made the most friends back in 2011 by posting art online and commenting on other artists’ things. People love chatting about their hard work. I ended up meeting loads of them in person. If you can find a space of creatives, whether it’s a bluegrass club, DND, discord book club, whatever, you’ll have a good time.
And, don’t beat yourself up about being lonely. Life moves in cycles. Remember, it just takes meeting one extrovert to suddenly gain a crap ton of friends. Or, maybe you’ll collect them one by one. Regardless, I feel you. Be well.
To be fair, my old Corolla is comfortable, with adjustable seats, climate control, and a sound system. It’s a little mobile room that society requires I own, I might as well enjoy it. I’ll spend 10 to 15 minutes sometimes after work just watching videos on my phone before / after going home.
My partner and and I will sometimes sit talking in their Prius for a long time after reaching a destination.
For some context, you can cook food at ~140 to 145 °f

Umm… What?
I’m so happy that new pipe is working again.
I use virtual credit cards from privacy.com. for trials I set a $1 limit and forget about it. It’s pretty useful for legitimate subscriptions too, since I can pause or end them just by pausing the card.
Thank you Lain.

I use Lemmy because it appeals to my wish to be alone, by myself, with no one here beside me ❤️ social media peace at last.
The attrition is slow, but every user lost to Linux is likely lost forever. After a year or so of totally free software, who is going to build a new windows compatible PC, buy a Windows 11 license, and pay for subscription service just to do word processing, or play a few incompatible games?
Windows completely overestimates people’s willingness to throw out their laptop or PC just to get a new OS paintjob. For every person who does it, another one will leave their ecosystem forever.
Personally, I’m totally desensitized to this kind of stuff in anime, but I understand your issue. Some people will say, “just don’t watch the gross stuff,” but I think that’s unfair. It’s a little bit like asking someone who doesn’t like sexism not to consume media which contains it.
Like… That would be miserable. Tons of great movies, tv, books, fiction, nonfiction, etc contain casual, misogynist content. You should enjoy media freely and still be able to complain about it, or advocate for change.
Likewise, tons of excellent Japanese media has questionable, underaged girl stuff in it. It’s always going to be weird to a lot of people if it goes unacknowledged.
So… Your opinion might be unpopular, but I think it’s totally valid!
That’s pretty cool. This is one of my favorite games on PC. Recently, I’ve been replaying it on the steam deck. It’s not a very heavy game, and works well on a mobile platform. I can see it being reasonably playable on a touch screen, too.
Good riddance!
I have to say after watching the videos, boo to the corpo for the weird exploitative lies, but kudos to the two women for staying in character! They legit put effort into moving like the real robots around them, and all while in what were probably uncomfortable costumes. I hope they get positive social media attention!
