So THIS is what the communists were talking about when they told me about the benefits of transitioning to a cacheless society!

Definitely, but it’s mostly twenty to thirty somethings, some forties. My wife and I are nearly in our fifties and occasionally make a fake account to whatever service is big that year/decade to see what we’ve been missing. We don’t feel like we’re missing much.

A buddy of ours of similar age is a widower and, after many years, has decided to try dating again. He’s meeting women but has variable results. I can’t say he’s having better or worse dates than when meeting people in person, but he’s having a lot more of all the dates, so it’s like they’re more concentrated.

Trolling or just a dumbass?

My buddy and I were just talking about this. Juggalos get a lot of shit, but my experience is that they are one of the most accepting groups around. It doesn’t matter if you’re a PhD or are stealing copper out of abandoned houses, if you show up with some clown makeup and fire poi, juggalos are down to clown.

Pretty sure Farmfixit here needs to fix themselves.

WHOOOOSH!

I like to think that a lot of the more “Reddity” Reddit refugees from .world, those who tend toward pearl clutching theatrics like these posts, will eventually head back to Reddit. Maybe they’ll find their perfect alternative, where there are no dev or admin issues and everyone has a comforting (for them) center-left to center-right, Western ideology driven political stance that never challenges their preconceptions.

This is why STEM education is important. You clearly learned from yours and that’s awesome!

I totally understand the point most of them are trying to make and agree with the sentiment, but they’re fucking morons. 100% absolute jibbering idiots.

This is an ugly binary choice here because the United States electoral system is a steaming pile of horse shit. Do what I, your friendly neighborhood lefty, am doing and swallow your pride and vote for center right Joe Biden because he’s leagues better than the dementia-addled, fascist Cheeto Benito. Then take all the disgust you’ve built up by voting for and living with another neoliberal corporate shill presidency and work your ass off to make sure we don’t have to keep voting between Dumb and Dumber every fucking election.

Do it because we’ll only be gently tiptoeing to the right under a Biden presidency, so it’s less likely you’ll end up in jail for discussing the “wrong” political ideology while that orange shitstained merkin would have me in jail just for writing this were it up to him. Don’t make it up to him.

Are you a stupid person or a stupid troll? Probably both.

Blocking PugJesus and YeetPics (PugJesus’s sock puppet alt), both from .world, will cut down on a mountain of whining about imaginary tankies.

🍆 💦

This is an alert from the Summer’s Eve Emergency Broadcast System. This is not a test. I repeat, this is not a test.

Reddit has experienced a Level Spez douche release which impacted Lemmy.world approximately 96 hours ago. Lemmy users may observe increased douche activity, including but not limited to: unjustified smugness, irrelevant and erroreous corrections, bad arguments, ego fragility, unwarranted hostility, and assorted douchebaggery. Users are advised to remain calm, refrain from engaging encountered douches in serious conversation, and to liberally use the block feature.

Ava Louise, the woman who had gluteal implants and now has an ass so big that she can’t fit into regular seats or clothing. Humans are fucking weird.

In this thread: many apes who demonstrate they have no idea what capitalism is.

That would certainly explain why I find shaved crotches prepubescent and weird.

You’re being reductionist to the point of losing the actual point but, if we assume you’re doing so in good faith, then yes. Without a doubt yes. Given a choice between a person’s feelings being hurt and a person getting physically hurt, the latter should win, especially when the only reason those feelings are hurt is because the person refuses to try to understand why or is so fragile they’re unable to handle criticism.

Most men I know aren’t made uncomfortable by this and, so far, the only ones who do have their feelings hurt are absolutely the ones women should choose the bear over. Not because they’re bad people, but because an important point is being made and instead of trying to understand, they dig their heels in, refuse to understand, and now gripe about being victims because people are talking about things they don’t want to think about.

Looking at your comment history, I can’t tell if you’re a troll or just a moron.

the vast vast majority of people never interrogate their expenses.

So much anime. I finally understand what some users must feel about the Linux posts when I decided I was tired of seeing fang moe, cyber moe, cozy moe, coffee moe, sword moe, and other seemingly endless permutations on the *moe theme. Blocking one community seems to result in two taking its place, like some kind of hydra moe.
