Not specifically for that. More generally for emotional outbursts.
Edit: it's sad to see people just down voting instead of actually having a discussion. Maybe a tad cowardly in my book, at least reductive behavior.
You replied directly to my warning about bashing someone for how they look. Consider context.
There's !offmychest@lemmy.world and a variety of others that are similar.
We can deviate a little from the conversation as other comments here have and others across Lemmy typically do without question.
I have many comments here, you could've replied directly to them instead. Of course I'm going to think that you're looking for a place to bash women if you reply directly to that comment asking.
You're more than welcome to continue to ignore context throughout the Fediverse, I don't really care what you do.
I didn't take the time to read all of your comments, I apologize for that. It's still an open question of if there should be a location for emotional outbursts, not specific to what you're saying or what you're saying I'm saying. Of course people will have emotional outbursts and it's a real aspect of the human condition so it may be useful to have a location for that.
That's why I suggested !offmychest@lemmy.world or somewhere similar.
What're you doing here? Why are you talking about emotional outbursts on this post?
Because it was the general topic of the comment I responded to. Thanks for the link btw.
This is the comment you responded to, by the way.
Yes, emotional outbursts tend not to be amazing, or logical.
Now I know you're trolling. Shoo.
Not really but you're free to think I am. There's not much I can do about that.
I saw how you conducted yourself in the womensstuff community and I see what you're doing here.
A mod warning isn't an emotional outburst no matter what you think of women.
I didn't say the mod warning was the emotional outburst. It's very appropriate for the location and circumstance here. I believe we may have a misunderstanding.
I had a full conversation with you and you just want to be cheeky.
Say it with your chest or gtfo.
I'm not talking about you unless you are using multiple accounts to down vote?
No, I’m talking directly to your beating around the bush in what your initial comment meant.
By all means - expand on what you meant right here.
I mean I meant what I said. If people want to have inappropriate emotional outbursts (typically from a source of anger) then it may be useful to have a dedicated location for that instead of it spilling out into discussions.
Who is having inappropriate emotional outbursts here according to you?
If you remember the comment I was responding to originally was on the topic of preventing emotional outbursts (typically inappropriate as emotional outbursts tend to be). I never said anything itself was an emotional outburst here, just that it may be useful to have a location for that.
