Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What is something everyone wants to do or have, but you have no interest in?
Honestly speaking, employment. Working for money isn’t something I envisioned doing, but seems to be a requirement in this dystopian capitalistic society. It takes away from my time, my happiness, and a lot more things. And the little money I get in exchange, I can’t even get to do the things I want to do. It’s all too depressing. Fuck everything and everyone who supports such a shit ass system. Sorry if people are offended by this, just needed a vent.
Great answer - yung time aspect talaga ng working for money yung di ko din matanggap-tanggap. Doing all this from grad (or even earlier) until retirement age (of choice) or until you drop dead… Imagine instead if we have more time to do things we love instead of the things this conveyor belt world expects from us. But wala, ito na yung nadatnan natin.
Having kids. lol

Ang mag inom. Hay nako! Kayo talaga nagyayaya lagi mag nomo haaaaa. Masama yan!!! 🤡🤡
Shot na tayo mamaya Lemmytors, pagkaout Hahhahahaha
Excessive kpop fangirling (I also wasn’t into F4 then). I just don’t get it, maybe because I don’t understand the language.
Concerts. Not only kasi maraming tao but mostly because you’re expected to participate otherwise KJ ka. I prefer to sit/stand there in silence, listen, soak it in, and occasionally bob my head.
That’s why the only performance I paid for was an Explosions in the Sky gig in Samsung Hall. Konti lang tao and it was post-rock, so instrumental. The freebie shows I went to sa Ayala Malls - Walk The Moon, Owl City, Cobra Starship, Twenty-One Pilots, hindi ko na-enjoy with the crowd singing along from beginning to end and drowning out the vocalist.
Adding every person they meet on social media.
Having a high-paying job or a lucrative career. Kahit na pa sabihin natin na sobrang taas ng sweldo at sobrang heavenly ng working conditions, hindi pa rin. Just imagining the responsibilities involved, nakaka-stress na.
While I want to earn enough for myself and a perhaps a person or two, to live comfortably, parang okay lang din siguro kung mamatay ako sa gutom kung ang kapalit naman nun is being to live a stress-free life.
This is what I’m afraid to be at na parang ayaw ko na magpapromote to be honest (increase sahod na lang pwede ba haha). On my industry/tech stack, I know what the next level entails, at recently lang naexperience ko na yung glimpse 😄. I’ll earn significantly more and be surely more comfortable than before, pero lagi akong napapaisip kung sulit ba yung magiging trade off.
I don’t think you’d have lived a stress-free life if eventually you’ll die of starvation hehe
I mean, I guess? But also, having already experienced a prolonged period of eating nothing (tubig lang), I think I can get by. Near the end of the first week, I don’t even get hungry anymore, not even after drinking water.
But yeah, I’d rather die of hunger than undergo the stresses of a high-paying yet high-responsibility job/career.
Eating nothing can be beneficial as you are cleaning yourself. I’ve done this during pandemic, at sobrang gaan sa feeling na parang naging germaphobic ang kalooban ng katawan. Haha
Signing up to socmed, cUz uR faMelee n reLatevz uZing it 2.
My family and relatives using FB, among others, is one of the biggest reasons I deactivated.
Constant tagging you whenever they upload something.
Lalo na pag yung pictures ng party ng kamag-anak na hindi mo mahindian. Sabay sasabihin ka pa na suplado kasi di ka nag-cocomment. Parang di ata nila narerealize kung bakit hindi ako umiimik in the first place.
It’s annoying, and one of the reasons I deleted my Facebook account 3 years ago. Tagging confirmation? Yes, meron, but like I said, annoying.
Kadalasan nga kahit hindi ka na i-tag may notification pa rin e.
Wtf is this sorcery? You spyin’ on me? DATS AGAINST D LAW DUDE.
watching concerts…
well, if its kurt then its a different story…
It was a thing, until these smartphones rise up and record everything. What’s the point of going to a concert if they’re going to record it and trim it to 15-second TikTok content?
Big events like concerts and cinemas were used to grandiose. Smartphones ruined it.
nah concerts just aren’t everyone’s thing
Some concertgoers are just forced cuz someone’s bought an extra ticket. They can’t eat up that cost for nothing. lol
Fame.
Screw popularity I want legally earned big bucks without people actually knowing I’m earning big bucks.
I don’t want to be famous I just want to live normally, travel frequently and help anonymously without worrying about bills for my whole lifetime.
Hmm…online mobile games? Guys my age play CODM or Mobile Legends or Valorant or something along those lines, but I am barely interested in what they are doing. I’ve played my fair share of online games, though they all were at either my laptop or at an internet cafe PC. Never on my phone. In fact, the only things I can remotely call a game in my phone is a Morse Code Koch trainer, a kanji practice app, and a Reversi/Othello game.
manalo sa lotto
Of all the answers here…
Bakit? Just being curious.
i don’t like the whole lottery system idea. pool money from thousands if not millions of people to award it to one or a handful, because luck? it’s like taxes, only stupid. then for me to have all that money? parang marumi
if you want to acknowledge and accept a corrupted government that still has plenty of money for legit projects, instill a culture of jueteng
Ah, thanks!
That makes a whole lot of sense to me now.
Look what I found earlier. Was laughing to myself when I saw it
Meron ka na starting part to build your own submersible.
Basta wag lang carbon fiber ang gamitin

Mga hinde dadalhin sa sisiran. *kindat kindat
Kasi gago, mamamatay kayo.
The redesign to end all redesigns.
This logo is way ahead of its time. The “new” one is so pretentious.
This has got me curious though: Who designed all our government’s OG logos?
This + Department of Agriculture, DSWD, and DOST.
These logos were really good.
They should have hired whoever made the DICT logo to do PAGCOR’s rebranding.
BFAR is another good one.
Holy shit! Tignan mo kaya pala ng gobyerno natin e. More accountability and exacting standards sana. Kudos to the design teams behind this.
Ngayon ko lang nakita yung bagong logo ng BFAR
Swerte nila wala pa social media when this was launched. It looks like something I’d see on a missalette.
But this is still way better than that 3 million dreck.
Nagbalik loob na nga ako sa swimming pool dahil kailangan ko magpractice eh di ko naman kaya mag dagat everyday lol. Nainom ko agad yung tubig kasi walang lasa 💀 at least sa seawater maalat diba? Hahahaha
I got a few laps in, enough to be considered as a cardiovascular exercise. Honestly, the ocean is so much more fun. Sa pool there’s nothing much to look at except the guy with a swimmer’s body on the other lane. That guy swims. That stamina chef’s kiss. 5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ parang gusto ko manood ng Free! tuloy HAHAHA
Like, if I was in the ocean I don’t even think I’d notice such stuff kasi iba yung focus ko. I’d be oohing and aahing at the corals, the fishes, the waves, the ocean floor, etc. Seriously.
I wanna see a picture of that stamina ☺️
Ocean > Pools. Totally agree. Sure, maganda ang facilities, but sobrang artificial tignan, and the scenery is just meh.
Sa ocean, you’d want to swim as long as you can, especially pag maganda ung view. Just thinking about the ocean makes me miss it.
shabu
I’m guessing this was intended for the Ask PHlemmy question, lol.
I’ve noticed that behavior recently. I try to reply to post comment, pero nagiging comment siya to the post.
shabu
hindi ko naman yata ikamamatay
kung hindi ko mahawakan ang iyong kamay 🤡
Malaki ba yan?
Buseeeet Hahahaha
May malaking kamay naman, ah.
Perfect weather for gaming all day!
Gusto ko bumili ng Diablo IV. Bwisit na bwisit na ako laruin Tsushima. Ayoko ng open world exploration, I just want a linear plot/goal!
Ayoko ng Open World exploration.
I installed a mod way back sa GTA V that could make pedestrians fight/shoot each other like in San Andreas. Took me about 6 months to be motivated enough to continue the main storyline kasi I had another objective of my own:
So yeah pag wala akong strong incentive to continue the storyline. I tear shit up instead lol
late…
One of my kratky tomatoes died because I left it outside my overcrowded greenhouse. It filled up with rainwater and drowned 🙃
It didn’t bear fruit anyways (none of my tomatoes have fruit so far - probably because of the heat, or I don’t have the right nutrients), so it’s not that big of a loss, but I should get a bigger greenhouse built.
Almost halfway through July na agad
Ilang kembot na lang din “ber” months na ulit.
Mga JMC jokes dito bannable offense, ha? 😂
Q2 Tax na naman!
…Pero hindi pa rin tapos ang flyover sa Molino?
Wag muna maligo today, ang lamig eh >.<
Agree po hahaha
Maligo ka! Minsan lang makakatikim ng malamig na tubig.
mamamatay ba to dito kung hahayaan ko lang siya jan HAHAHA
Magugutom po sya 😢
buhay pa. alive and kicking. we’ll see. HAHA siguro 1 week na siya diyan so far
Gusto ko sumali dun sa mga doggie run marathon kaso wala akong dog. So my plan is manghihiram ako ng dog tapos hiramin ko na din yung owner chz.
Well, it’s an idea 🤷♀️ I can’t get a dog bc we already have enough cats ok. It’s a cat-centric household.
TIL the second most popular Duterte (that isn’t related to Digong) is Jay Som.
That’s why she have her stage name more popularized.
Dapat iedit nya yung Wiki. Puros Duterte nakalagay, lmao.
Got my Marble League ticket!
Thanks for the reminder that this exists, haven’t seen any races in a long time.
