It seems goofy to me — I wish we had collectively picked a term with more oomph.

I’m struggling to come up with an alternative though.

The way Zappo’s smile warps into a frown is priceless.

El Zappo had it coming.

You’re right, it is unfair of me to write these people off. Slacktivism is no substitute for real activism.

It’s just disheartening, weird, and scary seeing everyone repost the same instagram post like little worker bees.

And personally, I don’t think these people are doing anything behind the scenes to push for change. I suppose I’m just cynical.

My grievances come from the fact that there’s no counterweight. Posting this type of thing is not inherently bad, but it’s all these people ever post.

I agree, people can enjoy things I don’t enjoy! But by exclusively posting vapid content, they are diluting the content pool and drowning out what is important.

Your inaction is your admission of acceptance.

No! People need to get their heads out of their ass and focus on what is important.

It is right and just to hate on people who only speak up when the topic is useless drivel. They should be ashamed of their inaction and their complacency is disgusting.

It’s been difficult for me to find evidence of Hamas atrocities barring Oct 7th. Do you have any resources?

So chemically salt is NaCl; are there any additives in a salt lamp that make it deviate from that structure?

Cuz if not it would be cool to actually use your salt lamp for something useful.

I suppose it’s just not my cup of tea!

DAE think this game is vastly overrated? It’s not bad by any means, but in my experience it doesn’t really do anything exceptionally well compared to the competition.

What I really appreciate about Lemmy is that broadly there is an unspoken rule that constructive dialogue is the only option.

You can say something stupid or misinformed, and instead of ripping you to shreds or vilifying you, the fellow strangers that choose to respond will usually do so in a polite, constructive way. They will put effort into their argument to make sure it’s understood and sound.

Once that unwritten rule is no longer abided by, the ship has already left the port and there’s no recovering. I hope it stays that way for the foreseeable future.

On the 22nd of July, 2025, a breach to Meta’s data centers uncovered an erotic video that showed Mark Zuckerberg engaging in explicit acts with Sam Altman. At just over 2 minutes long, the video displays in vivid detail the disrobing, touching, and climax of each man at the hands of the other.

When questioned, Zuckerberg had this to say:

“I mean, it’s just a kind of, we both like AI, and that’s what brought us together initially. We both want to make human lives better. After some discussion, we figured to start small; we certainly made each others’ lives better that night”!

Idk if you have rapport with the teacher I can see it as nothing g more than a light jab

The bootstraps people would tell you that it’s about “discipline and order, two things that are essential in a functional military”.

Honestly having a small circle is great. However, diversification minimizes risk. In having a small circle, you open yourself up to massive vulnerabilities and many would say it is not a sustainable business model.

Nope, I fed my pinkies to the starving kittens at the end of the street.

Think of the animals that preceded us. Humans are so self-absorbed.

Have you seen Pulp Fiction? That’s an all-timer. True cinematic masterpiece and it is also bloody and some would say it is trashy.

I used to think wagons were weird, but then I became an adult and realized that wagons /shooting brakes are just perfectly optimized to my tastes.
