Lol brain injury is cumulative (e.g. football players) in what way is calling brain injury what if is “manipulative intensifying language” lmao

This isnt me defending the US btw, apparently its the kind of place you get lots of concussions (the nice, non traumatic kind tho ;3)

There’s some good examples and discussion here https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJA_jUddXvY7v0VkYRbANnTnzkA_HMFtQ

How do people manage to invent intricate phrases?

It seems like nowadays no matter what you do there’s a word for it and it’s probably considered something horrible by someone somewhere.

For the set of all things, there is usually someone who doesn’t like said thing, yes. That is how people and things tend to work, since there are so many people and so many things.

The tone of this post makes me think you did something shady lately and you’re laughing off getting called out. And who’s unironically saying ‘kts’ in 2025? Cringe

I got no errors or logs, the program stopped “sucessfully” but i get no output.

This makes it sound like your code is doing what you’re telling it to do with no errors. Show us your code and we can help figure out the delta between expectation and reality.

In these difficult times I find that all I need is spending some time with my loved ones, enjoying my old favorite media and games and sharing them with my daughter, and nightly cuddles from my beautiful monster of a cat while I read web serials to unwind.

Well, those things and also cannabis and escorts. And pizza. Keeps me going.

Go to the doctor

I missed when reddit had more porn so here I am

Dude I don’t care whose name is on the building, it’s the same effective ownership

Advance Publications https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advance_Publications

Advance Publications, Inc. is a privately held American media company owned by the families of Donald Newhouse and Samuel Irving Newhouse Jr., the sons of company founder Samuel Irving Newhouse Sr. It owns publishing-relating companies including American City Business Journals, MLive Media Group, and Condé Nast, and is a major shareholder in Charter Communications (13% ownership), Reddit (42 million shares), and Warner Bros. Discovery (8% ownership.)

Potato, potato

Reddit is owned and controlled by a corporation (Condé Nast.) They disabled 3rd party Reddit apps to force people onto the official Reddit app which also broke many third party moderation tools. This disproportionately impacted power users, frequent posters, and mods-- in other words, the people who made Reddit the important community it was.

They showed an unwillingness to listen to their community or work with the unpaid volunteer moderators, instead banning the moderators who took part in the Reddit Blackout and replacing them with mods willing to cooperate with the enshittification of the site.

They’ve been mangling the web interface to be uglier and less usable (old.reddit.com is still up, but the mobile version of old.reddit.com is gone). They’ve been experimenting with ways to show more ads and subtler ads.

Lemmy is open source and federated so it can’t get bought up by a company and cored out for shareholder value. You can use different instances, or a variety of apps. You can use (or create your own) third party tools for accessibility and moderation.

Lemmy is currently a smaller universe than Reddit was, but it has a high ratio of good posters and moderators who care personally about their own communities, so hopefully it continues to grow.

Ah I thought the argument was that there shouldn’t be any natural or social consequences either per the assertion the IWW’s language was ableist

It’s just that the logical conclusion here is that everybody skips work/class/get-togethers/volunteering on days any individual is sick or has problems, and therefore effectively nobody can ever do any work or receive any benefits from any work or community activity of any kind. At some point some things have to start on time, right? From surgeons to airline pilots to garbage collectors to graduate classes to stamp collecting clubs to backyard BBQs, delaying everything until everyone can do everything at the same time just doesnt seem like it would work

Wow, hmmm. I’m someone who makes personal sacrifices in the name of punctuality because I’ve experienced the negative effects of lateness and strive not to externalize those costs to others whenever I can.

I’m going to be thinking about this post for a while because I really want to appreciate and relate to this perspective, because my personal inclinations go: food gets cold and won’t be as good reheated as it was when it was hot the first time. Other people might have woken early or skipped a meal or made other personal sacrifices to be somewhere on time. I see punctuality as a responsibility to my fellow humans. If I say I’ll be somewhere at a certain time, I do my best to do keep my word. So it’s going to take me a while to really process the alternative perspective here.

This is breathtakingly dumb

do anything else

I’ll take this question in the spirit of the community you posted to. “No stupid questions” refers to the saying “there is no such thing as a stupid question,” which is an aphorism meant to destigmatize expressing ignorance. This is supposed to be a place to ask the questions you might be afraid to ask because you assume everybody else already knows.

The other posters are responding a bit comedically at the notion that this community is fundamentally opposed to asking “stupid questions” when it’s traditionally been a space for “I’ve been afraid to ask, but are you supposed to use shampoo or conditioner first?” type questions.

Can you be a little more specific? Typing questions into Google or ChatGPT can get you answers on a broad variety of topics. Quora is a well-known “question and answer” type of site. Stack Exchange is a help site network largely specialized for different kinds of computer code, programming, and a few other topics. Is there something specific or a particular kind of community you’re looking for?

Get blocked fashie bot

I was about to say the same thing. I’m not reading all that shit. This is bot generated right wing propaganda.

Echoing what others have said that it so far appears to be hallucinated/AI-coined from everything I’ve seen so far, as well as that I’ve seen a variant spelled “Arafed.”
