I think it's totally okay to ban you for crap like that. Maybe that's why nobody makes me a mod any more 🤔

Anyway, you're a transphobe.

raises trans, linux-using paw ^.^

Thanks for bringing this to my attention :3

My system (a laptop, all I've got 'cause I had to skitterflee from doomness v.v ) can't run much so I'm kinda stuck at "playable" framerates on old games :-\ I kinda hate to admit it but I've been playing Borderlands 2 ... the Linux version, 'cause the Windows version, which has a bunch of patches and mod support, just doesn't run well enough for me 😭 Can't even get any DLC, though I've been really wanting to try Gaige. May be too burnt out to enjoy it any more anyway.

Before that was Titan Quest, which just doesn't really play like I wish it did. Played it a bunch anyway. Bleh.

So now I'm just sitting around trying to avoid losing my mind to boredom or despair. flailyskitters around in circles 😵‍💫

Here's a funky quad-simultaneous-wordle thingle @.@ https://www.merriam-webster.com/games/quordle/

Crappy "family" bits feel very familiar v.v Mine always insisted that doctors are all quacks and the psych docs are the quackiest. They even seemed offended when I took a sociology elective 🙄 A few days ago was the six month anniversary of me coming to this house ( 😅 !) and I'm still learning how to live with people who aren't constantly suffocating, crushing, bleeding the life out of me.

Sorry I don't think I've got any help for you, but maybe some commiseration is nice 🤷 😅 😕 I wish you luck getting into a healthier life!

This article stinks of ignorance and bellendness. Complaining about "modern" or "new" terms is always a huge red flag to me, so now I have to wonder, for example, whether the The Bright Sword character referenced does in fact use she/her. Oh noes, the setting wouldn't have this one word! It does, of course, have the entirety of any English dictionary other than that word, though. Just the one is icky, like all of those pronouns the woke crowd keep _shoving down our throats! But the woke crowd don't exist in that world! The whole damn world is drastically different but this one conveniently common language is almost identical! Couldn't have been that they say "are with" instead of "have," noooo, it's one coincidentally "political" word that's gotta go. That's the one critical difference in "a fantasy setting divorced entirely from the real world" where they'd suddenly not say things the same way we would!

Does this person give a damn at all and have a crappy take, or just feel like spewing another "omfg woke newspeak agenda" wall of whinge onto... er, Forbes. Not the place I'd look first for sensible discussion of social matters. I guess a click is a click.

I don't know who that is; I'm guessing some popular(ish?) streamer or YouTuber or something. Makes sense that people like that could popularize some undercooked ideas or ideologies.

looks at +5-20 votes Is there an actual reason this comm's full of fools? Everything actually leftish in "Lefty Memes" gets downvoted. It's kindof a bad joke at this point.

Imean, for one thing there's the issue of "why are you here if the actual topic of this place disgusts you?" but then there's the fact that so many people are eager to jump on and fight over things that aren't even being said. It's like a big pack of trolls but I don't think they even know it.

People come to a meme community and expect a deep, well-reasoned essay on the state of things and the best ways forward from one captioned image :-\ Is there not a dichotomy between nuance and memes?

The comments around here are just wild flailings based mostly on assumptions. There's nothing to argue with. It's a picture with some text on it, popularized as the simplest form of humour. Looking at the comments around here now feels like watching a bunch of people arguing with a dog. There's really not so much being said.

This is kinda baffling, is what I'm getting at. It looks like almost nothing's been said so people are furiously attacking things that haven't. 🤷

"Meh, another update post"
...
"Wait, I use that. What's new?" 😅

Very agree here. Less and less is actually GNU, so by what metric do we have to include things? "GNU is an OS?" I'm running two at once? No, it's three, some of this software comes from BSD. Or is it more? Maybe I've got tools developed on/from/for other OSes still! Hell, I've got Windows software on this system. Gotta tell everybody I'm running GNU and Linux and BSD and Windows and (...) 🤦

This naming "debate" is absurd.

Edit: I meant to say, it's really getting too late to push the naming issue as a means of making people recognize how much of "Linux" is GNU, considering the connections are decreasing. Even the kernel builds with clang these days, GNU tools and libs get replaced... I don't know that I'm happy about this, but it seems plausible (at a casual glance from a non-expert observer) that GNU's practically on its way out. On the other paw, I'll be glad to never hear about this naming "issue" again if everything GNU gets buried.
