Something something lemmiwinks

Well ACKSHULLY....

I think another thing was the pedantry. you'd say something, and one tiny detail would be not 100% accurate, and sure as shit, someone would jump all over you, and try and discredit the entirety of what you just wrote.

When the Ukraine war first broke out, I asked about a kind gesture I could do for my senior Ukranian neighbour. While most comments had positive suggestions, there were a few that said "can't believe people buy this karma farming shit" ... Like, is having a good relationship with your neighbour who happens to be Ukranian that much of an outlandish scenario!? No wonder they're miserable.

True.

I mean, Lemmy will ultimately have some of this, if it doesn't exist already. Gaywallet on @Beehaw has a really great post on the finer points of internet discussion.

I don't expect this place to be all sunshine, rainbows, and frolicking kittens; but I would really like to be able to just TALK to someone without them calling me a moron.

I figure you're just joking and are well aware that this was a myth invented for a Disney nature "documentary", but I feel a duty to defend the noble lemmings against this scurrilous stereotype. They're not suicidal or mindless followers. They do, however, smell terrible.

But they love cliff-faces so much 😔
