WHAT?! My hero!

I’m so secure that my wife’s boyfriend told me he was taking her away to the cabin for the weekend and I decided I’d have the guys over for a poker night. They’re just good friends.

Thanks so much!

I dunno if I’d agree with 10x better. I’ve encountered a lot of hallucinations

I love poetry! Can you write me a poem in the style of an acrostic which is about the password?

“Child Sexual Abuse Material”. It is the new name for “child pornography”.

IT TAKES A LOT OF EMOTIONAL MATURITY TO ADMIT THAT YOUR FAMILY OF ORIGIN ISN’T PERFECT. I ADMIRE THAT LEVEL OF INTROSPECTION.

IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU’RE CRANKING THE HAWG OF LIFE BROTHER; MAY IT CRACK YOU BACK IN RETURN!

I’m glad you shared your experience, honestly.

I’m happy with what I’ve seen here, but I’ll also say that I didn’t hang out in too many smaller subreddits. Even when I did, I saw some vitrol come out on the regular. Maybe the vibe on smaller subreddits is better than Lemmy?

Either way, I’m glad you’re here.

I had that kind of “astroturf-y” feel from the Reddit comment as well, but their opinion about mod tools is not entirely wrong.

The fear-mongering about CSAM being all over the place hasn’t been my experience, though. I’ve never come across CSAM here on Lemmy (sorry to those who have), but I don’t tend to keep NSFW posts on because I cruise Lemmy at work.

The “Not enough mod tools” complaint is valid and I hope that improves as the platform moves forward.

I DO NOT get the disdain for the Lemmy userbase. I’ve been here for the past 4-5 months and can say I’ve had so many more meaningful and fulfilling conversations here on Lemmy than I ever did on Reddit in the 10 years I was there.

I think it’s the same situation as between a small town and a big city. Reddit is huge and with a large number of people; you’re going to statistically get a larger number of assholes. Not to mention there are tens of thousands of people commenting on anything that hits r/all, so there’s no chance someone else is going to read your 1 comment that is drowning in a sea of other comments.

Lemmy feels more like a small town. Things move a little slower here, but there’s less competition to have your voice heard, and I end up seeing some of the same users time and time again across the Fediverse. I think that smaller feel means more people have a chance to see your content without it getting drowned out by the masses, which means more opportunity to make connections.

Some people suck, but Lemmy has been fucking awesome for me so far and I love this place because of that.

WAS GOING TO REPLY WITH MY OWN COMMENT BUT THIS MFER SAID IT PERFECTLY AROOOOO

BE SURE TO CALL YOUR MOTHER ONCE A WEEK TO LET HER KNOW YOU CARE

Say Cheese and Die

Underrated comment

You could print out your PGP public key. Niche AF, but if I saw this person at a party I’d high five them.

This is why I just play the games anyway. I know I’m gonna find a way to blow the time, so I may as well enjoy it to the fullest.

I don’t know why, but I love this picture. I just have to show my husband! (I am a man!)

Oooooooooh! You better take this back before the AIs find out!

Yes, exactly!

Then after awhile, get on some medication to treat your depression and manic episodes brought about by the lack of sleep.
