  Mildly

  Implies these are all the children of rich people with his line about the parents house in the Hamptons, but realistically the majority of these people grew up in normal ass homes and went to college to afford to live.

  so the user themselves doesn’t care and apparently neither do the mods of the communities wherever it was posted to.

  I’m sorry, do you not even know what community this is about? You’re complaining about the moderation here, or wanting horny posters to be in their own comm, but you don’t even know what comm violet was posting in? So you’re sorting by all and complaining…???

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ciao⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I find it disappointing how adult content builds communities and spaces, and then conservatives, well-meaning but newer folks, and payment processors work together to make sure the same people that brought the community into existence aren’t welcome anymore. We’re not even talking about porn here, were talking about memes of a horny nature. Moderators have the judgement to enforce tagging NSFW so you can filter it easily in client. Anything beyond that, yes I think you should start your own community, and make rules against horny shitposts there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ciao⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why should the horny posters have to move when they are active, happy, and popular here? If their posts are reaching top frequently, maybe they should stay here, and you can make a pruder shitposting community for your own needs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sorry to hear you’ve been struggling this way. I’ve never thought of you as a lolcow, just a recognizable poster. Hopefully going offline, heading to university, and going to therapy will help you find some peace for yourself. No shame in what you posted IMO, try not to be harder on yourself than anyone here would be

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy or Piefed?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Personally like Lemmy. Both the Lemmy devs and the Piefed dev have their faults, but its been a while since I can remember that controversy crossing the barrier into the source code on the Lemmy side. Its been fairly recent for Piefed with upvote limiting, and PJ leaving over it

  Talk to your doctor before taking ciprofloxacin if you or family have EDS. It can do a number on your tendons

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do I constantly see testostorone being put into evreything from pills to candy bars but its illegal for trans men to get it?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean its a steroid essentially, so with its drawbacks come a fair number of uses. For instance if you have EDS producing testosterone can lessen the impact of the disease by strengthening your muscles and resulting in less damage to joints.

  average run of the mill successful business sleaze

  Wanted to reply to this part and say that seeing a lot of his appearances through the QAA podcast I came away thinking he was more deeply unwell then most business sleazes.

  Other people have mostly covered it so I’ll just add that its foundational to the game to know that it is always funnier to have Abelard introduce you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What the fuck is going on with Iran and what will happen next?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Trump issued a threat to Iran before negotiations started that he fully intended to carry out regardless. He then launched a series of missile attacks against Iran with the stated goal of regime change and the cooperation of Israel. Iran’s leadership was hit in the early bombings, but they had been preparing for an attack and launched counteroffensives against US bases all over the region, and closed a vital oil shipping route.

  Trumps administration is unhinged and vile, so the early targets also included a girls school and many other civilian targets. Hegseth has been going on rants about how there will be no rules. Congress for their part, came together to fail at enacting a war powers resolution that would have made this ?more? Illegal. True bipartisanship in action. For their part many European states have followed suit, by either tacitly endorsing the war or simply refusing to note that the US and Israel are the obvious aggressors. Spain being a bright spot on that front.

  Irans’s attacks have been expanding as the US keeps attacking. They seem focused on building pressure internationally to end the war, but are also hitting places that are supporting or housing US or Israeli troops.

  For the why, its hard to say. This is a confluence of the entire US political classes obsession with provoking war in the middle east. Schumer, Graham, and the bipartisan warpigs are doing everything they can to justify the war or slow people trying to stop it. Trump for his part is barely there mentally, but has floated war with Iran as a solution to dire political numbers before. He also just seized a bunch of oil from Venezuela and might see the oil supply crisis as an opportunity to profit. There is no motive too low to consider tbh. Worth considering how much is really Trump and how much is Stephen Miller puppeting the gilded meat sack around.

  Israels imperial ambitions are also not to be discounted and they’ve been pushing for this for ages.

  Well you see trying to stop a genocide or convince a candidate to come out against it incurs a risk that we might lose an election to a fascist. Luckily since the people who cared are an inconsequential number of non-voting leftists, we can be assured our refusal to take political action or even remotely try to hear out Palestinian voices will guarantee the election. Better to be safe and not try, because that way things can’t get drastically worse right? Right.

  /s just in case

  Thank you ❤

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not about being rude it’s about not being nice

  The first words are ‘I’m always a little mean’ so I think rude counts. I understand the motivation for doing this, but this is a strategy that the more it is applied the less it works. The core issue is men taking small deviations from their expected social treatment as flirting, and I think that moving the expectation lower by being meaner means that it will take less ‘nice’ to accidentally communicate interest, thereby making it worse in the end.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Conversely if you are this triggered by a neutral response to a shitpost maybe switch to a social media that just doesn’t allow replies?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t fathom being so sensitive and so chronically online that you need to post a genuine Response to a fucking jokey post about girls needing to be a little mean to make creepy dudes go away.

  Oh no, I’ve replied to a meme in a non-hostile way without downvoting it and boosted its platform visibility. How dare I?

  If you ever wonder, “Why am I single? Why won’t someone date me?” It’s because you say stupid shit like this. You’re not a victim, dude, so stop acting like one.

  Engaged, but appreciate the concern for my dating life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a pattern that if applied broadly feels guaranteed to spiral into the opposite of the desired outcome.

  1. Be rude as a rule to men

  2. Men interpret what was once ‘rude’ as normal behavior

  3. Stepping positively outside the new normal gets interpreted as possible sexual interest

  4. Now you are required to be even ruder baseline to avoid misinterpretation, and men just get treated worse socially.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta progression in roguelites was fun for a while, but it's starting to feel unrewarding⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sort of. Roguelike’s defining feature as a genre is the reset of all player progression between runs, and the random generation of the runs themselves. Basic progression is transitory, so a name for progression that goes outside the runs and doesn’t reset is useful

  We make our dog sit at the door and wait for a command to exit, so that they don’t run out unexpectedly. Normally they’re raring to go and sprint out the second we say the word, but the past few days they’re just as likely to turn around and run back to the couch instead of stepping outside
