  I understand why folks think violet is a LARP, but I don’t. She’s too matter of fact about her posts and doesn’t seem to care very much if folks give her attention for it or not. She barely comments in reply to her posts, and most of all she has explicitly said she’ll never share a pic of herself.

  I think someone larping would be way more over the top with what and how they posted, would post and comment more frequently, and would for sure generate some AI thirst trap (or just steal someone else’s picture) and claim it to be her.

  YMMV, and reasonable folks can disagree, but I think violet is exactly what she claims to be.

  Nice try Violet08, you’ve exposed your alt account.

  This is basically history repeating itself again with the Beehaw defederation.

  I’ve been around the fediverse longer than the age of my account would suggest, but I missed the drama around Beehaw - what was the story there?

  Thank you!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Train Surrounded by Flames in Armstrong, Ontario⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I watched with sound off so apologies if this was mentioned, but why the F are they not getting out of dodge? Is the train disabled in some way - guessing it’s not or the guy wouldn’t be taking the time to get a video on his phone.

  I’d only be videoing that horrifying up close fire as we drove away from it.

  Carry on with your ballonilingus and be happy.

  That’s gotta be a sentence no one has ever said before.

  FYI I seem to recall that almond milk is horrible for the environment because of the quantity of almonds and water required. Oat milk is supposed to be the better choice from that perspective, and supposedly it’s easy to make yourself but I haven’t tried that.

  In that case I’m sorry for not getting it! :)

  I didn’t realize they had covered it but I bet it’s a hoot. I’ll have to see if I can find it.

  I haven’t thought of that song (or King Missile in general) in a long darn time.

  Based on recent posts, it might be her car.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨this fat fuck getting McDonald's door dash at work⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It was added after Trump took office. There were articles about it. Apparently labeling doorways is helpful for dementia patients, and many people took this as a sign of dementia.

  Are there still more than like 5 people trying to make Latinx a thing? I thought that one kind of died out early on, but I’m not a member of that community.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How possibly?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The question you have to ask yourself, though, is this: Do I want to scold white people for their privilege, or do I want to get them on my side to fix it? In my experience, rubbing their noses in it is going to set people’s minds against you.

  I think you are making the same mistake they do. You can’t very well get someone to help fix a problem if you don’t let them know the problem exists. Just discussing or explaining white privilege isn’t the same as scolding someone about it. The folks who take it that way are going to take it that way no matter what terms we use, because they don’t want to admit it exists.

  The only way the dems could fuck this up is if they run on centrist bullshit chasing republican votes, again.

  I wish I had any confidence that they learned their lesson after trying that with Kamala. However, I have none.

  Yep somehow I did. I knew it had to be something like that.

  I’ve never been in one, but family brought home some of their “beaver nuggets” and I really couldn’t believe how disgustingly delicious they were. Basically they are big crunchy sugary things that taste a lot like plain Capn’ Crunch, but they go down by the handful way to easily.

  A friend told me if you want to be really decadent you can eat them in a bowl with some milk like breakfast cereal.
