  • TIL The Irish have beef with us. Ehhhhhh, alright. I guess we can squeeze in a quick war before we get to whatever the fuck will trigger WWIII.

    What? Did you guys not think this through? We’re a nation of illiterate gun loving psychopaths that historically plays the role of world police…but only when it suits us. We just willingly voted in a fascist rapist as our new (possibly forever) president. Our nightly local news stations websites have dedicated tabs for the recurring news, such as sports, weather, and mass shootings. We kill each other because nobody else is willing to go to war, and we’re thirsty for war. There’s a CONSTATE state of uneasyness over here, and feeling that at any moment, ANYONE could kill you…for like, NO reason. You think we wouldn’t take online shit talking as a fun little side quest war? In, out, another nation set up with America military posts everywhere. Honestly, I’m always surprised the rest of the world hasn’t collectively gone to war with us. Then I remember, we’re the only nation in history to use nukes. Then we did it again a week later. Pretty sure our military command has the mantra of “Fuck em! Fuck who? All of em!”

    Heh. Ireland wants to start shit? That’s cute.





  • I find that searching for the appropriate community can be a hassle. With so many different instances hosting the same communities, it can be difficult to know where to post.

    lemmy experience intensifies

    I said months ago the same thing. I think the power of the fediverse IS NOT the multiple different communities. Rather the ABILITY TO create multiple different communities.

    And the example I use is a community for dads. Somebody creates a community for dads and parenting advice on lemmy.world.

    And then it gets popular.

    So somebody else creates that same community on lemm.ee

    But why? Now 40% of the dads are on lemmy.world, 20% are on lemm.ee, and 40% are on both. It would make sense if there were a problem on lemmy.world, but until there IS a problem, stop trying to fix problems that may or may not happen later.

    The fediverse take a bit too much pride on the concept of being decentralized. To the point where it doesn’t feel like a united set of communities. It just feels fractured.

    It’s ok to FEEL centralized…until shit goes down. The you can pull out the decentralized card, start a new community, and pull the rotten tooth. But until it’s needed, don’t add extra uneeded tooth implants.

    …ok, that analogy got away from me a bit, but you guys get my point, right?
