I think it’s cute, unless the admins have an issue I think a lot of little “in group” things usually help people bond. As long as they don’t become gatekeeping, I think it’s nice. So much of the world is cold and joyless as it is.

The wikipedia is a pretty good write up. but generally you see it in European or multicultural spaces more than American centered, though it has entered the discussions, most no one knows what it means when they are using it.

My experience hasnt been like yours at all and i am sorry you think you’re weird or something?

I mean i was a loner because geographically a lot of kids didn’t live near me. I took the time to learn about people and everyone who works with me likes me, but i also kept myself safe and i enjoy being weird.

My experience with discord is it’s a place like highschool where people get shut out if they arent as loud.

Im not sure why you’re anti thoughtful young people, i think people enjoy a lot of different activities and informing yourself of the world around you is exactly what makes well adjusted people, not late jight drunken hang outs.

It’s been weird. Have a good one and work on thinking better about tech and those hobbies. No one “well adjusted” really throws that stuff away as inherently maladaptive. I think in person peer pressure not to grow because you live around ignorant people wont have a lot of appeal to a good person.

God i hate discords and what they have done with gaming documentation. I am completely turned off by any indie dev who requires you join their discord.

But im here, clearly i like forums. The fact that discord is basically backwards adding in forums with their threads thing is proof forums are still useful!

I love “i know all right spaces are intolerant but ive know some bad leftists so they are exactly the same” 😩

You’re not arguing in good faith at all. You don’t have any evidence, you just have wild accusations.

Let us know when the ussr is doing anything modern. You just keep moving the goalposts.

Oh yeah tumblr. They pride themselves on being extreme i think in some of the spheres, where as i think nost people in this space are sharing deeply held beliefs. Most of the extreme stuff i see from there seems to be teens/outrage bait.

I forget the ages but i think beehaw/lemmy skews a tad older?

I’m not sure why “I don’t want to see a space become an echo chamber” is always what gets said. Everywhere else IS a right wing echo chamber for the most part? Conservatives aren’t the ones chased from reddit and twitter?

What probably isnt welcome is questioning people’s right to exist, right to live unmolested because of someone else’s beliefs (and real molested, not "i saw a minority existed), and the right to make your own medical choices for yourself and your kids. Considering means testing has been proven a waste and the right opposes taxing fair share, i wouldn’t even argue that actual financial conservation is even a point the party makes.

So it’s really hard to see what need this space has for those talking points. Unless it’s actually about being open to real discussion, which frankly facts aren’t often on the side of the right, what good to this community do these ideas offer?

What should be asked is what place does the Right/Conservative philosophy as a whole have in the Lemmy ethos? Is it in and of itself could be argued to be an antithesis to the whole structure and philosophy. Can authoritarian ideals thrive where they cannot take power?

Your generation does the job listing that requires that generation to get a degree?

The irony of “i got mine during a better economy, fuck them kids” is a stance you are proud of.

What’s that saying? Good luck getting blood from a stone…

Rofl yeah cause you and yours definitely had such a hard time. 🙄

I was too but my family was busy fuckin and working in autobody shops. It was nothing keeping them back but themselves.

God I have had to have the argument with so many small time video game developers to not use some god awful fancy font.

I used to work in education and there are so many tools for accessibility and people just can not give a flying fuck and it’s frustrating.

No one gets “I think this looks childish” matters less than “I cannot write or consume content, it is unreadable”.

Fresh herbs in a small garden I can easily temperature control if the weather changes seems like the best choice! I have a cat too, so a little cat grass might be in the mix. :D

Thank you for sharing. I’m close to someone who, before me, had gotten all the worse stereotypes about autism directed at them. Even now they struggle to give themselves the grace that it’s alright to be who they are and that those traits can even be seen as quirks someone could love.

I have a black kitty too, your picture made me smile! Thank you so much for sharing! I could use some leafy greens now that you mention it. I love kale, I should check that out.

Thank you for those suggestions! Carrots and potatoes would be amazing (there’s a kind of potato I don’t have here I wanted to give a shot).

I currently have a senior pet who I have a small area set up for them, limiting my space, but I unfortunately think the space will me more free by then. I hadn’t thought of buckets but with the right drainage I could fit a few…

Definitely glad I’m giving myself a year to plan! I swear I can grow something here. I want it to be productive, maybe I’ll end up doing some native flowers?

Guess who faces completely north? 8D

Doesn’t seem like a death knell completely but not ideal. I can’t handle heat but I have a partner who would absolutely love to make their own pepper sauces.

Thanks for the drainage tips! I’m on the top floor so I can forget about it sometimes!
