I didn’t block hexbear until a few months after joining and personally experiencing all the toxic vitriol that comes from there. They REALLY stick out. .ml hasn’t been bad enough to where I can see a post and immediately go “oh yep that’s from .ml” like hexbear

.ml is another of the tankie triad instances that are typically blocked for context. On lemme.ee for their loose defederation policies and I’ll be moving to .zip for the same, but I still block hexbear at the least because of how horrible those people are, rather bang my head against a wall than entertain that cess pool

I lucked out into being born 5’10, not tall enough to need special clothes, but short enough so the shallow “6ft or nothing” women self filter themselves and I don’t have to deal with them myself. I had a buddy who was 5’4ish who was an absolute disgusting human being but always blamed being alone on his height, also have a buddy who 5’2ish and married to an absolutely wonderful woman

I once fell asleep with a laptop on my lap that had a horrible heat sink and would basically turn itself off every half hour. My legs were crossed when I fell asleep and my heel was right up against the vent… Woke up with the laptop still on. Confused. And then PAIN. It has used my heel as a heat sink. MASSIVE burn, horrible pain, like four inch blister, still have the scar twenty years later. Had to wear flip flops for like a month shudder

There’s not as many people outside just…existing. I’m not that old but I remember just going outside and seeing people just not doing anything in particular everywhere, now it seems like everyone always has some place to rush to and no one is allowed to just exist in public places anymore. Maybe that also has something to do with my perspective shifting has I got older, but I still feel like it’s true.

Also bugs. There are like NO fucking bugs anymore. Couple decades ago you could walk out and get sandblasted by a million different bugs and now everything just feels so fucking dead and sterile and depressed. It’s like outside was replaced by a clinic and no one bothered to complain.

If someone pirates a movie for home use its no big deal because yes. If someone pirates a movie and then opens a movie theatre and starts charging people to watch the movie that’s an entirely different matter. AI is a business generating income, not a person skipping out on a $4 rental fee.

If your industry can’t exist without theft then your industry doesn’t deserve to exist, pretty simple.

No one thinks this nor is saying it. You’re the person screaming WHAT ABOUT THE ATTACK ON THE WOOKIES when everyone is talking about what to have for lunch right now. Get it together, it’s embarrassing

You’re approaching this from the wrong direction. No one is saying this is the correct way to raise animals, everyone is just saying this is LITERALLY what the phrase means.

For wha it’s worth I have ridden both a horse and a donkey, though I am unsure why this is a sticking point for you on a language question

It’s hard enough getting acclimated here and then someone comes along and asks an innocent question or looks for more information and it’s all “fIrST oF AlL ThIs IsN’t ReDdIt” like no shit, shut the fuck up and stop being the problem with this site that makes people leave.

Appreciate your valuable contribution

…I WOULD fit in with my beard. I dig it.

Sounds like you’re angling for me to have a million things to say to you

My parents would say this to jole then ask what my preferred name is. It all depends on your type of relationship and what was cut off.

I can dislocate my joints at will. Thing with Ehlers-Danlos but it’s a nice party trick

Lemm.ee was specifically created during the reddit exodus as a way to manage the influx and is very loosey goosey. Unfortunately that means you have to block the horrible instances manually, but it is what you’re looking for I believe

You seem like a very angry person. You should probably stop calling people ‘tards’ and ‘pussies’ while you advocate for for mental health and against sexism but I would first work on that near homicidal rage you seem to be harboring.

Maybe you should talk to them first instead of wishing for them to pay for help not involving you.
