It's not mine, but it looks like it might be from a book called Anxious People.

What about selective presentation of true facts?

I see that type of bias in social media circles a lot, and it also feels like people building their own "reality". Facts that are convenient to the group's current beliefs are loudly shared and repeated, while ones that would cause friction are barely noted, if shared at all.

I stole this meme from elsewhere, but I was able to find the template!

Is it sacrilegious to say that the Enterprise D exterior looks like something designed by Apple?

As someone who posts a lot, here's my general scale for Lemmy posts by upvotes:

0-99: Niche or a joke that only sort of landed

100-250: Average

250-400: Good post

500-999: GREAT post

1000+ : Hit post!

Yeah, I thought the joke in this one was weaker than usual too.

I guess Aquaman as a firefighter makes sense, and so does a Flash as a delivery man, but Superman as a doctor isn't as clear.

The fumes make it hard for Elmo to think.

Marvel Rivals. I haven't played it yet, but I keep hearing good things.

Yeah, it's a lot of fun. It's like poker, but you get to modify your deck and how many chips you earn by drawing special cards between rounds.

The goal is trying to break the game to pass an ever-increasing chips/points threshold. If you fail, your run is over.

This may be the least vulgar one yet, lol
