I’m in Denver and loving it so far. We haven’t gotten connected to the LGBT community much here yet, partly because we already knew some people here and partly because it feels like we’re still pretty new. That said, it sometimes feels like the gays in our building outnumber everyone else, especially when you visit the pool on the weekend lol. In a time when gay bars are getting rarer even in major cities, I’m happy with the offerings in Denver. Though I haven’t been to NYC in a bit, but I’m sure it can’t measure up on that front.

Also generally the climate of the city is gay-friendly. It’s a small thing, but pride flags of all colors are all over the city this month (well, and not just this month either). People are generally chill and open-minded, so I’ve felt comfortable being myself here.

I’m in Denver and we actually just renewed our lease and they didn’t raise our rent one cent! I can hardly believe it, and we live in a nice building too. I guess because we aren’t at capacity they just want us to stay.

Interesting, I adore my switch. I love my deck for its capabilities (e.g., modding) but I’ll usually buy a game on the switch if I have the option. For me, it’s much more comfortable to use for extended time whereas the deck is heavy enough that it’ll give me wrist pain for long sessions. The battery difference is underrated here too. It’s nice traveling or hell even on the couch to not have to worry much about battery on the switch.

Safety is my main concern and I actually received an ebike rebate from CO. I ultimately decided to not purchase one because my commute to work didn’t feel safe enough; I’ll stick with public transit. Denver’s not the bike-friendliest city but I can’t even imagine biking in most of the rest of the country’s cities.

I’ve seen LGBT lobby and Rainbow Mafia thrown around too. Anything to dehumanize and attempt to paint us as some faceless and unreasonable oppressors.

How “spoilery” is the article? I’m torn between intense curiosity about what’s new and also wanting that genuine surprise when I find things myself.

I’d agree with your statement in isolation, but

Valve forever more have my support

sure sounds a lot like the definition of loyalty:

“a strong feeling of support or allegiance“

Yikes dude, you’re blaming me for the reddit-esque toxicity.

I was using the other guy’s wording (“trash dumping”) specifically in quotes because I didn’t agree with that sentiment re: scooters. I’m not making any point about you, I’m talking about the use of the term NIMBYism. Dang.

You’re omitting the part where OP is fine with the “trash dumping” in the streets of other locales. That’s what makes it NIMBY (as OP admits).

Akin to portability, the Steam Deck’s sheer weight is a factor even when it doesn’t leave the house. The SD will sometimes give me strain in my hands or wrists while the switch feels like a feather in comparison. If a game is on both steam and the nintendo eshop, I usually will get it for the switch.

I love my SD a lot, but battery life and weight are influential in a handheld for me.

How many people have you DMed?

Agreed, seems like a weird comment. It’s easy to get incredibly mild Indian food here but plenty of places go up to inferno hot too if you want it.

Does a map have to be large though? Theres value in a map being exactly as large as it needs to be to fulfill its creative vision.

I specifically moved from a cars-only city to a one with a more robust public transit system. I couldn’t be happier every time I take the bus!

This isn’t a unique opinion.

Upvotes ideally don’t equate to agreement though.

That’s me with Psych. The show is beyond uncomfortable humor.

If anything, this is a call against complacency everywhere. Foolishness ignores man-made borders.

Interesting! I can already picture the min/max song playlists going around lol

Color me surprised you found yourself on the lemmyverse but don’t feel confident to install a mod. Not a dig! Just unexpected.

HC is coming out eventually though, not sure why it “obviously” isn’t?
