I don’t see how putting human rights on hold will somehow make things work any faster, better or more efficiently. My rights as a human are up for grabs, and somehow thats me “watching things deteriorate from an elevated position”? lol, ok buddy. You’re being unreasonably hostile right now so I’m disengaging. Enjoy your holidays if you celebrate them.

I never stated whether I was pro or con guns, so I don’t need the lecture. I was simply pointing out that you can’t just sit out an election cycle when it comes to human rights

Democrats need to bide their time on several issues… LGBT issues lie for an entire election cycle

The problem is a lot of damage can be done in one election cycle. Just this year so far? 590 anti-trans bills have been proposed and 85 anti-trans bills have passed in the US: https://translegislation.com

Don’t listen to them, you do good work friend. I know holidays can be rough and depression makes everything harder. I’m just a pm away if you need a sympathetic ear who gets it

I always want to comment but notifications can be so stressful that on most platforms I usually end up just lurking. Lemmys been pretty decent so far, it reminds a little of early internet messageboards where most people were more into discussing something interesting than trolling or one-uping someone for internet points or ego boosts or whatever weird reasons people are assholes on the internet. It’s probably the least toxic platform I’ve been on since the livejournal days

aww thanks! I am definitely a list person hahahah

I have a huge list of trippy & visual movies, tons of variety if you’re interested in picking through it for ideas: https://letterboxd.com/bee_tea/list/background-movies-for-house-parties

No change for me, youtube sure is trying but ublock origin keeps fighting the good fight

Yup, I left youtube up on my laptop all day today and this is ublocks total. It’s fucking crazy that some people don’t bother with adblockers

I can’t! I have to keep my feet on the ground! Man I loved the fuck out of that movie as a kid

Oh I bet he reeeally hates Lonnie as a nickname 😂

Is he just a greedy idiot, or is this part of some multi-step plan to make sure the internet is filled with disinformation? At this point I think both things are true. Can’t he just run off to Mars already

you need a banana for scale

Right, but there’s a lot of people who don’t (or won’t) think that in depth into it. Going by the gist of it, I often fit the criteria for all four: comment length, tone, context and history. Especially with the ‘ending your text with an emoji thing’ lol. I dunno I guess I’m just seeing a lot of frustration in my future of strangers defaulting into thinking I’m not real. I’ve got some childhood trauma with feeling like I don’t exist and I really don’t need more of that soooo… THANKS BOTS. 👍

Wow, alright. Today I learned my neurodivergent ways of communicating online make me sound like a bot. On one hand, booo. On the other, well I did always want to become a robot-human hybrid so… win?

⭐ <– my lemmy gold for you, excellent writeup

this reeks of “I am 12 and very smart” energy

you know young people are still getting long covid right?
