Yeah, but then your father sends you a bunch of pro-bigotry, pro-fascist memes and you wonder if he's actively trying to trigger you or if he honestly thinks he can convert you to his regressive way of thinking.

Both. He wants violence on others, but wants you to be part of the in group doing it

It's an act of love and hatred. I don't respect it, because I know the hatred will be turned on me soon enough, but you do have to try to understand it

My mom would send me a dozen or more conspiracy theory links every day before I cut contact.

That's when you hit him back with hardcore gay porn. He'll be too busy furiously masturbating and wallowing in guilt and shame to send you any more.

At that point the pebbles just become rocks for you throw back at them.

Don't want to take away the sweet nature of this post, but a person can also still be spamming lol.

Spam is just too many pebbles. It only takes one pebble every few days to convey affection. More and perhaps you are spamming.

Thanks, just sent this to my wife.

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 1 points 6 days ago

My ex wife never liked it when I sent her memes, so I sent this to the person I'm sending memes back and forth with now. She seems to appreciate them a lot more.

Piling pebbles on my wife while she sleeps so she wakes up to a little pebble mountain

do penguins have to laugh react to 30 pebbles a day one friend keeps sending? do they get weird ideologically charged pebbles?

[–] Zerush@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

Thanks, I love it

Has unemployment gone up because of pebbling? Recruiters are increasingly wary of Gen Z’s new fad

[–] psud@aussie.zone 2 points 5 days ago

That has a lot of new generation not as rad as old generation energy. I have found the youth as dedicated and driven as anyone else, though naturally less knowledgeable as they are pretty new to whatever job.

Some are incompetent, but some were incompetent in my cohort too, they don't last long just like the ones in my cohort didn't.
