Good for him.

I used to use reddit constantly, and did so for years. That level of hostility took over so gradually that I didn’t even consciously notice. I used Lemmy for a few weeks before it really sunk in that nobody had jumped down my throat over a minor, irrelevant issue (like a careless punctuation or grammatical error).

People here tend to give each other the benefit of the doubt, which had become virtually unheard of on reddit. Even when people make replies I don’t agree with, they’re usually discussing the point rather than the way that point is presented.

I will never, ever go back.

Swatting

(To anyone who doesn’t realize I’m being a smartass, DO NOT DO THIS.)

Will 4.0 include mining for copium?

Idiotic opinions, and the people who loudly and enthusiastically share them.

Edit: I am definitely including myself

Many more to go, but this is encouraging news

Last night I assassinated Joe Momma in bed.

I’m so glad they used the full version of this photo. The look on Trump’s face is wonderful.

I’ve got pretty limited sympathy here. Trump not paying for rallies was a news story YEARS ago. Any city that has since agreed to host one of his rallies (or whatever) without demanding payment upfront has only themselves to blame.

If anything, it should be the citizens suing the city for gross incompetence and negligent mismanagement of their tax dollars. In fact, I’d call for the state attorney general to investigate anyone who greenlit such obvious, foreseeable fraud.

Too bad his idea is so fantastically stupid. Under other circumstances, I might kinda like his “fuck it, do or die” attitude.

It’s not a matter of how he grips it; it’s a simple question of weight ratios!

Those Pesky ‘Read It, Never Said It’ Words Are The Epitome Of Chaos

You made an honest mistake. It happens.

Okay. Thank you for taking my question seriously. I know it’s silly, but it was bugging me.

I need to go to bed.

Is this a surprise to anyone?

This is relatively unimportant, but I noticed that Ms. Marvel’s parents call their daughter Kamala “kah-MAL-uh”. Are there different regional pronunciations of the same name? Was it just bad research on Disney’s part? Is it something else?

Jack Smith is fighting the good fight. Win or lose, he’s a hero for trying as hard as he has.

I completely agree with everyone who’s told you to do what you love. I do have a question for you to consider, though: is sculpting really the problem, or is it the academic environment (with all the rules, pressure, judgement etc. that you’re dealing with). Classes can suck the joy out of anything.

I don’t want to discourage you from changing your path; I just want you to be sure that you’re being honest with yourself.

Living in denial is easy to continue doing and widely encouraged, while being very hard to overcome.

This is entirely on Twitter. For your average person, sending a court-ordered fine to the wrong institution means it hasn’t been paid.

Plus, theres the fact that Musk is completely untrustworthy. After all the effort it’s taken to get Twitter to pay up, I wouldn’t restore their ability to earn income from Brazilians until the fine was secured thoroughly and correctly.

Stay classy, Don.
