Oh sorry, I wasn’t clear enough. I’m taking about the posts that have an authoritarian slant to them.
“There should only be one (memes or whatever) community across the fediverse. Someone… should deal with all these copies.”
Fedi doesn’t map exactly into their single server reddit experience. They want to re-create king spaz for some reason. It was kinda gross and I felt a few randos really showed their ass.
The media won’t give me great answers to this question and I think this I trust this community more, thus I want to know from you. Also, I have heard reports that Russia was winning the war, if that’s true, did the west miscalculate the situation by allowing diplomacy to take a backseat and allowing Ukraine to a large...
Right now I am hearing ever louder calls of Russia winning
Winning was taking over the county at first. Then it was kherson, and donbass, crimea, and a few others. Now it’s just like 3 areas. If you’re hearing anything about winning it’s because the goal posts are moving.
Youtuber Perun had some good high level takes on the war. It all boils down to Western support will win. As long as support keeps coming from the rest of the world, eventually Russia will run out of material. WW2 was won (not wholly, but in large part) due to the larger economy being on the allies side.
It’s modeled after mission burritos. You could say it’s San Franciscan. That’s essentially Mexican.
Going from first principles is a different story. Did you know potatoes come from Peru, South America? Shouldn’t they be called Peruvian Fries? Not French? Like half of all food is South American. It’s wild. Same for beans; which make up a part of a Chipotle.
Anyway, when dealing with cultural categories there’s no real facts to rely on. See sandwich vs hot dog.
I’d say it’s Mexican, but not sit-down-Mexican. That’s something different. You usually get wet burritos at sit down Mexican. There’s a million places call like El Rodeo, or La Michoana, or whatever. They aren’t a chain, but you know what you’re gonna get at a sit down Mexican. It’s never a Chipotle style burrito.

Some are touched by Calliope and Melpomene. Their works reflect themselves. Great or low. In short, you can tell a lot about a person by what inspires them.
It was my sincere hope that OP unwittingly laid bare their soul when they went to bat for a jpeg with a 9x9 grid of nakies. This is the only kind of poetry you can find in the modern age.
I’m very thirsty in this wasteland and I need someone to show me this hot alignment grid so that I can judge it’s its author. There is no other succor for me.

This. Additionally Mast/Twitter/bsky is anxiety inducing. You want to post and comment and get a following so that when you want to share a cool 3d print, or a good shit post, it’ll actually get seen. So there’s always this pressure to post something insightful and funny and in-group so that you get followers. Otherwise it’s zero engagement. On bsky specifically there’s a setting that’s on by default where comments with 0 likes don’t get shown. So unless you have followers who like your stuff you’ll literally never be seen.
Here you’ll usually get at least one upvote or down vote.
It was. I tried out bsky because I got a code. It was like re-creating class but on the internet. I don’t want power to consolidate in minorities anymore. Got tired of it super quick.
I don’t really eat fries, because they feel like something is missing. What side of veg should/could I get to make them feel more complete? Vegan coleslaw? I need ideas.
The implication of sexual attraction being a mental health issue is fraught.
Before you let someone drag you down that slope it’s important include consent. Someone underage can’t consent to you dipping your balls in their mouth. Same for peanut butter and your pet.
Folks like to conflate pedo and by extension homo and trans as a mental health issue. Then they try to make an argument about how a trans teen can’t consent to gender care because they’re underage. As if fucking a kid is the same as a kid saying they need help.
The “pedo and mental health” comment smells like this kind of bait. It doesn’t look exactly like a Nazi, but it kinda smells like one.
Then this sounds like an actual mental health thing and not a dog whistle. I don’t actually have any answers. Just years of experience reading useless internet comments.
Seek a professional if you can. I don’t even know if you’re in a nation where just looking for help wouldn’t get you or your friend killed. Good luck.
I like that we’re getting into debate and philosophy in a shitpost.
There’s this idea that valuable discourse only belongs at universities and in lofty state office. I say it’s here in the shit that we’re shaping tomorrow’s culture.
