Some dingbat that occasionally builds neat stuff without breaking others. The person running this public-but-not-promoted instance because reasons.
I’m not sure there’s a purpose to it the way things are clustered here. Particular for anything of a political/news nature the very same post on one instance and com may get a completely different reaction on another. There are a fair number of people that I think of as ‘fire and forget posters’ in that they simply fire off posts but rarely interact with them after. Making this the default would likely encourage more of the same behavior, possibly leading to more spam.
Bad translation for a tea house, “Little Darjeelings” where everyone uses demitasse cups.
It’s a stretch but I tried…
There’s one in particular who for some undefined reason has been able to essentially say ‘go off and do this thing’ that my own brain said is stupid and impossible, and then I succeeded at doing the thing.
Probably the first example, when I had finally gotten the idea to do some gym work (which she helped at that too) I commented to the effect of maybe I could look at doing a 5k. So she says let’s go do 14k which of course sounded nuts, so we went and did that. Next thing I know I finished a marathon because why not…
Just ask NASA for help, pretty sure they had a solution figured out a while ago or there would be chaos in the cosmos.
Pleasant as this is, I wonder how they’re going to keep the crybaby-in-chief from demanding they stop again as part of his ‘dei is evil’ crusade.
Phobes being phobic, unusual enough not one that had a big history of egregious comments so this was a bit of a drop the mask moment.
Similar to the markings used on trucks hauling hazardous materials. Might be for the fire dept if the place goes up in flames.
Aww, are the fascists biting at each other now? That’s so sad…
Was more an observation where I figure it came from, but it seems the LW auto bots take quite the exception to links and suddenly banned me from a dozen or so boards. 🤨
Is there a list of bad domains that it gets fussy over?

Why the second account? Or is this just another in the string of dire wolf posters?
I would generally agree, the one extra factor though is that Trump will never admit he was wrong for selecting him to begin with, so there would have to be some kind of betrayal that he cuts him off for. Last I heard he was still saying Pete is a great guy and top choice, so it’ll be interesting to see what he spins to blame it on someone other than himself.
Sorry Pete, you’ve become a political liability. Take your $10B severance and hit the bricks beach.
What’s with the wave of new accounts spamming articles about this in the last few days? They’re slightly modified modern wolves, not recreations of extinct species, and largely discarded as hype by the scientific community. You’re not going to AstroTurf support here…
Let’s tack Donnie into that call for losing their job for not doing a damn thing to prevent this after the first time around. Incompetent management, why do we not have a no-confidence vote mechanism?
There where a couple women in charge of military divisions, head of the coast guard was one I think. I’m sure there have been plenty that he sees as DEI that got tossed without a lot of reporting.
Secondary bar for starfish pose crucification, the proper origin of putting stars on holiday trees
Who was it that said the rule was ‘half your age + 7’, think it was from a movie or something?
It’s not too far of a gap to be an issue in general, but some places it might get legally twitchy. Here they have what they refer to as a ‘Romeo and Juliet’ law that if I recall has a sliding window of a couple years around 18 that allows for people on either side to date within some number of years.
Ethically I wouldn’t think much on it. You could well have been a single grade apart in school depending on when each birthday falls in the year, that’s hardly worth noting.
Ummm Ermmm Ohmmm
More a speculative thought, but if those who do pay attention to negative feedback no longer see any, they may not take that into consideration when they put things up.
Say someone put up a post, saw no backlash on the front end, but then comes to look at the responses and sees a cesspit of hate. That’s hardly going to soften any mental harms it might otherwise impose.
Another thought here is messing about with such things, particularly in making them a default behavior, could disrupt comms where there is a strong voting aspect to it. The ‘am I the asshole’ type place that, despite the usual attempt to have them adjudicated by some nuanced comment system, inevitably end up using votes as a agree/disagree dynamic.
