!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Thats just code for "I am jealous that your hobby makes you happy."

That's a massive red flag.

Wait hold on

That makes too much sense get out of here

And when you have that miserable attitude long enough, it starts to feel wrong when your OWN hobbies or activities make you happy.

It sounds simple, but that shit runs deep when you’re raised in it.

I don't know about that, there are other hobbies people participate in that women find "attractive". So far my hobbies of video games and programming have scared away any partners...

...Says the chick who has made a total of $3,950 worth of microtransactions in "Fashion Gacha Glowup Idol Makeover Dressup Saga Deluxe 3."

"But that's different!"

Do you have a single fact to back that up?

[–] Nasan@sopuli.xyz 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It's all in the numbers. Number one, that's terror.

[–] FrostyCaveman@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago

Terror built into the system.

[–] otp@sh.itjust.works 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

That they got away safely? Maybe the fact that they're on Lemmy

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 3 points 8 months ago

Hope they didn't drop too much money when they ran away.
