Know what's real? Stupid pointless troll posts.

I just got into lemmy, and compared to reddit he seems refreshingly scarce here. Come to think of it so does Bonespurs.

Boggles my mind that anybody intends to vote for Trump not Harris because they think he'll be better for Palestine.

Well first, his cronies DGAF about him, he's just a stepping stone for their own gain. Second, I really doubt Bonespurs will ever face tangible consequences for his whole destructive existence. He'll continue to delay, delay, delay, have his final Big Mac Attack and dodge justice forever. On the plus side, the scrambling rats clawing each other apart to fill the giant void should keep the GOP in chaos for years.

What better way to tackle a crucial swing state as we near the finish line. He's turned into Kamala's best promoter. I'm loving this!

Many Indians I've worked with are sort of semi-vegetarian, eating meat but only on certain days. I think that's specific religious doctrine rather than a general attitude about animals - like Catholics eating fish on Friday.

I remember fearing high school kids. I wasn't even sure how old they were, just that high school was a jungle and any kid who went to high school was dangerous.

Used to be a rule of thumb that the lower limit for dating was half your age + 7. Dunno if that's still a thing.

Generally the first thing I try is to hit ESC to stop a paywall script from running.

If that doesn't work I try pressing ctrl-A ctrl-C to copy the whole page as soon as I see something. This works on pages that load and are then hidden by a script, but you have to be quick. Then I open Notepad and paste. If this doesn't work I'll either try it once more and see if I can be faster or just say screw it, if they want to hide their content that bad I don't need it. If it's important to me google will usually find the same news or info somewhere else.

Doesn't seem to me like you did anything serious enough to be banned from a whole platform, but moderators and administrators are individuals and some of them can't be objective when something presses their person hot buttons. If a right-wing Christian claimed abortion was Sexual Assault, that obviously would not automatically make abortion an off-limits topic, but I can imagine a moderator thinking differently. I agree with your response that nobody was being forced into anything, but using loaded words like "woke" is a good way to get yourself labeled by someone who thinks in memes.

Well I wouldn't disagree with out of hand but I would want to see your research on that.

Frequent thrift shopper, I've noticed prices going so high I wonder if they know what "thrift store" means anymore.
