Is there any way to keep this little banner expanded so I always see whatever the featured community is?

My regular carry right now when I step out of the house includes:

• A leather wallet my grandpa gave me (the circle imprints are from the quarters I use to get a shipping cart at aldi)
• A hankerchief I made with my freind when she taught me how to use a sewing machine for the first time
• My trusty Casio a700
• An old field notes notebook. We had a bunch left over from Geo-Caching when I was in scouts a kid
• A muji gel pen (I adore these pens 10/10)

And my keys with

• A keychain from when my friend took me to see a league of legends semifinals that was being played near us
• Two mini library cards
• And a medication container I keep melatonin and some ADHD meds in (Non-stimulant, not that I expect cops will care if I'm pulled over 😅)

This poem has a lot of emotional significance for me. I have a severe sleep disorder and as a result am not awake during the day. The things I miss the most are sunlight, and the small interactions with people in my area. The polite conversation at the cash register, giving folks compliments, people telling me about their tattoos, wishing people a good day.

When I can't see the sun, and I can't leave the house because nowhere is open its so easy to feel disconnected from humanity. Its incredibly isolating. On the rare occasions that I skip sleep for an important appointment, or my sleep schedule gets so late that it becomes early for a brief period and I get to do those things I miss, this poem captures the feeling that makes me happy to be alive.

For a short window of time, I'm really glad I exist.

And a replacement button with a similar color scheme :)

At some point I also wanna get some mini patches to go where there's currently the little embroidered polo player. The theme is lavender lemonade, so a little lavender and a little lemon would be cute :)

Its got a couple more scuffs since I took this picture but I really love this watch. It rarely ever leaves my wrist; I even leave it on when I sleep

I don't think many click through to YouTube videos but it's short and 100% worth your time.

Lemme know if memes aren't alright, I see that both the armed queers comm and this one (along with a bunch of other small guns comms) are basically just single poster communities, so I figured I'd crosspost to help contribute when I see something that'd be a good fit :)

This is from Durham NC, so the text is a silly "Durham" pun. And the local mascot is a bull, so a lot of Durham themed stuff features a bull

Forgive my very sleep deprived face and weird-ass glasses, I'm not normally awake during the day and the glasses help with my sleep disorder 😅

Feel free to post your voting pictures or "I voted" stickers in the comments; seeing them makes me happy!

An interesting old video on communication. It shaped a lot of my thoughts about communication from a young age and I recently watched it again and remembered how much I love it all over again

Also, yes it's by the guy who does the "true facts about" videos

Radiofreefedi.net is a super cool internet radio with a couple stations that plays music from fediverse artists, along with a "words" station that plays non-music stuff like podcasts or other kinds of spoken programming

I've really enjoyed it and only learned about it cause someone here on lemmy mentioned it in passing, I thought I'd share so other folks know about it as well :)
