My womanly urge to kiss my lover goodbye and run after the train until I fall off the platform and break my neck.
"At least... I got... to say.... goodbye, 🪦"
Honestly, my experience is that the Linux crowd are some of the most wholesome people on here, but otherwise I mostly agree with you. I was very quickly disillusioned about this platform being any better than all the social media shit I had just left behind. There are still good people and instances here and I hold on to the ones I have found, but the rest of my Lemmy experience has been very disappointing.
Are you meaning to tell me that I can only do ONE home invasion a day??? That is totally unreasonable.
Can permit crab clarify what constitutes a bad thing?
I self censor a ton on here, are you kidding me? I have blocked every news and politics related instance I could find and still, the instances that are left are filled with political brain rot from the most unhinged extremist black and white thinking leftists online.
The only reason I'm still here is because I have a small handful of instances that I actually enjoy frequenting, where people are trying to make a healthy environment to speak with one another and share thoughts and ideas that aren't always about politics.
The only true positive about Lemmy is that it isn't a corporate entity with carefully curated ads, algorithms and tons of bots. However, Lemmy is proof that the corporate model has trained us all so well over the past decade to think that being online is all about getting mad at politics and each other so we are basically perpetuating the bullshit trends they started like the brain dead lemmings we are.
To me Lemmy is no different than any other social media platform that thrives on hate, yet somehow thinks its unique and/or enlightened. It's a shame because there a lot of potential here to make something that unites people instead of continuing the echo chamber model that the big corporations have worked hard to put us all in because it earns them money to keep us angry with one another.
But whatever. All these "big thinkers" on here thinks their time is best spend screaming at each other and calling everyone they disagree with a fascist so who cares about trying to build a better online community? I'll keep blocking shit until I only have the productive instances left.
Thank you for the advise! For me it's not so much that I need them here and now. It's more a matter of lessening the waste that comes with packages when we buy something new for the home. I don't have a lot of these little packets, but I save them in case I need them and to dimish my carbon footprint by a smidge. It's not much, but I still think it counts for something.
I started saving these little silica packs. I think they might be useful for storage of books and paper. Maybe other things too. You never know when you need something to help keep moisture away from items. 🤷♀️
For me it is trippy to know that all the little kids I looked after when I was 20 are now 20 themselves.
My ghostly urge to haunt you in order to tell you that I was just a clutz and no one else needs to die but I'm a ghost so I can't communicate that to you and instead you go on to wrongfully avenge my death while my presence gives you chronic pneumonia and paranoia.
Ps, sorry about that. I didn't know ghost essence was like black mold, mate. My bad.
