  • Well, it is currently just after 7pm. My FIL passed this am. We were expecting it sooner than later. We took him in our house after his last hospitalization 3+ weeks ago. He made the decision it was time and to go on hospice. Been fighting a terminal illness for years.

    I am thankful we made that decision instead of sending him to a facility. We made him as comfortable as possible and he had support and visits from loved one during this transition.

    The last few weeks have been rough on my husband and I, but we did the best we could and I am happy we were able to provide him with the love and care he needed in his past weeks. We are both quite exhausted and have a few more things to tie up.

    I am thankful we were able to provide him with the comfort, love, and care he needed. He is at peace and our hearts are filled with peace and love.

    Had a few drinks this evening and am trailing off. Happy for the Lemmy/Fediverse community to share with, even though we are all anonymous strangers. Thanks for the ongoing support of the lemmy devs, instance hosts, communities, and users for providing a wonderful place to share and connect with others.

    Be safe and be blessed my random internet friends.



  • More BG3. Major irl setback my co-op game with my husband and we are only halfway through act 2 in our primary game and act 1 in our "evil" game. I have been casually playing solo on my neutral and evil campaigns, but refuse to go past where we are in our co-op. Really want to experience the game together before I do it solo. It has been a good bonding experience that has increased our relationship happiness. (We're constantly looking for hobbies we enjoy together but somehow keep missing the mark. BG3 currently fits the bill for both of us). Until another worthy game comes out or I get bored of exploring all the BG3 classes, races, and dialogue options this is my jam. Haven't even explored the mods yet. It is so vast. I feel like this will be my primary game for a while.




  • Welcome! This is a great instance, but don’t forget to check out communities on all instances. I start by viewing by all, and then when you find a community you like, subscribe to it. Sometimes there are duplicate communities on different servers. You can subscribe to all/both and the widdle down the ones that are most active or the ones you prefer to participate in. Once you got a good set of communities that you are subscribed to it is easier to avoid the things you don’t want to see.

    Generally people are very friendly if you have questions. You can attempt to look for an answer to your question that may already have been posted in various communities or posts, but at the moment it is a bit difficult to search for individual questions amongst the entire federation and various instances.

    Try out one of the apps. I am an android user and prefer Sync, Connect, and Voyager. iOS has Memmy and a few others I am not familiar with. I find it easier to maneuver around Lemmy with an app but the default browser UI works just as well.

    Enjoy!
