Over 13 years ago, before the hoods were quite this high, I had a pickup truck roll into the back of my car because he couldn’t see me (was coming out of “Event” parking, so barely moving).

2·7 days agoI just recently joined Lemmy; never had a redditt account. Have been using Mastodon for quite a few years now; only ever dabbled in twitter. I like that the fedi stuff seems more organic and less manipulated by algorithms, although, that also makes it easy to miss stuff as well. Still getting a feel for Lemmy and discovering interesting communities. My ultimate social platform was Google Reader (still miss my sharebros/gals. My primary social media after the demise of GR was the comment section, BBS, of BoingBoing – we had a mass departure after the publisher did some petty bans (started our own discourse instance)

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What movie terrified you as a child? Or what character?
2·7 days agoDon’t be Afraid of the Dark (1973) scared the crap out of young me… The little creatures lurking in the dark and dragging them away. My older sister reinforcing the fear with stories/teasing didn’t help. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don’t_Be_Afraid_of_the_Dark_(1973_film) I’m sure it would be laughable now, but my sister really knew how to push my buttons.

Sugar is great for when I’m sleepy in the afternoon (good strong black licorice is a good complimentary to that, since it seems to keep my blood sugar from dropping in the first place)
