As a child, I, too, was delighted to know that transformers were real and then disappointed that they were not the kind I wanted. I guess it was nice having electricity, though.
I do love the absurdity of the Jesse Pikman concept.
The one I put by far the most effort in and most care is my "Read Theory, Darn It!" Introductory Marxist-Leninist reading list I like to keep on hand and link if I feel its appropriate. It's not solely my effort, though, several comrades provided the epubs, audiobooks, and tweaks and suggestions. I made it after the 2024 US Election results, and wanted to give disillusioned people a productive route to understand why it happened that way, and a way to resist.
Outside of that, I really enjoy my overly-nerdy analysis of a leak of NCR Ranger Power Armor and how it fits/doesn't fit into the NCR's two-pronged Imperialist millitary structure, combining large, relatively slow units into the long-range scouting/guerilla arm of the millitary. Mostly because it's stupidly unnecessary for what's just a TV adaptation of a video game series, a series I happen to deeply love yet hate in almost equal measure.
Or the highest rated anyway. I posted it to ADHD memes, because I have ADHD and love memes.

Thanks! That was incredibly relatable. Do you have any more? I'll be awaiting your prompt response. Please note, replies may take 3 to 5 business months.
I am literally crying and far too sad to respond to your comment. I'll put it off until I feel too guilty to reach out. I'll hold onto that guilt for the rest of my life.
It's beautiful. Art isn't just about documenting events. It's about expressing information, including the feeling of the moment, even if it's not objectively and empirically accurate. I love it.
Thanks! I said in the posts something about the editing expressed the feeling of the aurora, which I had never witnessed before, and which was quite strong for how far south it was.
I like Vermeer, but if all paintings were held to that particular style, we would have missed out on the overwhelming majority of great works. I believe the same rule applies to all art media. The ability to convey the feeling of the moment is foundational to art.
Also somewhat proud (with slight embarrassment in admitting that) of this comment on the thread for the news article "Porn industry jumps into presidential campaign, targeting Project 2025". The reply I got was a great gag as well.
Mine aren't totally great as they're both kinda negative. My top comment is https://lemm.ee/comment/16106836, which is pointing out that new jokes are old.
My top post is https://lemm.ee/post/5345101. The image associated with it is gone, but it was a screenshot of an old friend reaching out and acting friendly in a text and trying to sell me on a crypto scheme. That actually really bummed me out when he did that.

I sorted by top posts and comments of all time and this has the most upvotes, at 484!
This has to be my favourite one though!
I find it hilarious how most of my top posts are either weird memes or shitposts.

Haha, no problem! I do post and comment quite a lot, looking to tone it back gradually.

Wasting too much time online! Life is getting busier and I don't want online time to get in the way of that.

I learned a lot from that post. Searching the Fediverse has been kinda slow and painful. I'll have to give it a try.
I get an error message when trying to read the comment. Not a rare occurrence in the Fediverse, but still better than the alternative.

I thought the first one was pretty funny. There's probably a hieroglyphic version of that joke carved into an ancient temple somewhere.
I'm sorry to hear that. It was MLM that ended a friendship for me. It's really strange that corporations can eat relationships.
