Everywhere this pops up, the users have decided:

Fuck meta. Fuck threads. Fuck the zuck.

Do not associate. Defederate now

Just think:

Meta has literal billions of users.

The entire fediverse has about 1.5 million.

Less than a fraction of a percent.

Why in THE FUCK would meta notice, or care, at fucking all? The entire fediverse of traffic ported over to meta wouldn't budge their advertising bottom line.

But, it's a comparatively small group of smart people, having conversations, and profiles they don't have tabs and near total control over.

There's news about cop city and gaza I have seen here that I've seen NOWHERE else.

Don't let them control the narrative here

Man, this shit's kinda wild to me. A hundred years ago, laundry was a whole day, heavy labor affair, at least once a week. Hauling water, mixing and soaking and scrubbing, and scrubbing, and scrubbing, and scrubbing, and scrubbing, and scrubbing, and scrubbing dumping water, hanging and wringing and drying

Now we have machines ad utilities that do 98% of the job, and it still feels like all I fucking do

Night owls have been a thing since long before cell phones existed

Here's a thought:

For someone with a congenital defect, maybe the healing spell 'heals' their body back to the way it was naturally-with the defect.

Buddy.

JC Penny, some years ago, tried to change their pricing scheme, from the typical "$29.99 +tax" to flat "$30, tax included"

Their sales dropped so hard they reverted in two months.

Americans are born, bred, raised to be fucking stupid, and forcefully shoved into shitty educational systems that make them that stupid. The design of American cities is built for people to be stupid and isolated.

There's a reason other countries refer to the people that live in them as citizens, and we get branded as consumers.

There's a level of respect from the top down that is sorely lacking

Are you planning to pay for the extra bandwith to deal with all the additional traffic?

Meta will.

And then when they own the servers amd all the traffic, lemmy will be quietly murdered.

Quietly, because they'll control the traffic, and therefore the narrative

Ah, here he is.

The reason for warning labels on everything

Yeah, I don't buy this shit at all.

How many people die each year from acetaminophen overdoses? Versus how many die from THC?

This whole infographic is a crock of shit

Dumb used to mean mute. The phrase meant deaf and unable to speak.

Of course, not being able to communicate leads a lot of people to think someone is stupid, and I imagine that's why dumb is now synonymous with it.

I once met a lady with some severe disabilities, no idea what, in a powered wheelchair at a bar. She couldn't talk, and had a massive keyboard she would sort of flail at until she spelled out the words she was trying to say. It audibly spoke for her.

This lady has two college degrees, writes books, and does art to help promote the concept that disabled people are people too.

Pretty damn impressive. Her and her husband's main gripes were how infantilizing most people are to them. And how expensive good wheelchairs are, lol

The fuck is wrong with you?

I've seen this before, it's great.

Is it real? Who's it from? Who's it to? Where's the letter that followed?

Why are people letting that piece of shit do rallies?

I suggest you do some reading about that major local religion.

Satan has been their 'arch nemesis' for hardly any time at all, it's a very recent addition.

Lucifer, as a fallen angel, historically is a pitiable creature, not some BBEG.

the church of satan is the only organization I know of that is pushing back against the theocracy in the US, and I think they're doing it brilliantly.

Man. I zapped all my cookies the other day, and when I re-loaded reddit, it forced me into a new new version of the mobile site.

Now almost every single comment that isn't top level is hidden behind the 'more comments' button. When I click it, the whole page reloads, with the top comment and the one response. And a button for the next reply. And so on.

I've noticed since this change, almost no posts have any discussion any more at all. Which honestly. Why would you bother?

I really don't think that's the case.

This is a nice little place, meta barging in Will fuck it all up

So how many nft's did you buy?

The scenery is great, the culture is not worth sticking around for

Well, google And the fbi
