Sorry, what are weasel words? Never heard that term. One I find fascinating is the way music and lyrics are paired together... people will happily ingest and dance and sing along to some of the most destructive lyrics, as long as the music is pleasurable to them.

Thanks, I'll try your suggestions. But even if it doesn't work, it's not nearly a big enough problem that I would leave and go back to you know where :p I'm starting to get used to lemmy and enjoying it! And it's CANADIAN :) Thanks for taking the time, appreciate it!

I use Chrome, but tried it with Edge and it still didn't work. Someone suggested I try a different user interface, and turns out it works fine on alex.lemmy.ca, just not on lemmy.ca. Problem now is, my email notifications bring me to lemmy.ca and there's no way to change that. So I have to either settle for one problem, or constantly be using two interfaces. But at least they aren't major problems.

He doesn't 'think plastic straws are gonna affect sharks much as they're munching their way through the ocean'. You seriously cannot reason with someone who thinks like him. He could be the poster child for how a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, seriously.

What she actually said is, "...a real job that might pay you more". So it was really a dig at the employer/not the employee... and she doesn't seem to realize it (?).

Takes a special kind of talent to be so offensive and hilarious at the same time.

So true. We're manipulated daily through the power of words... what to buy/where to buy it, what to wear or eat, who to vote and not vote for, what to think and believe, how to live, now how to die even, etc. We need to open our ears more and really listen to what's being told to us.

Lol, man, I hope they're seeing these articles.

Lol, ok, I can see why this is called NOT THE ONION. Geeze, and this is the most powerful country in the world. Maybe they don't actually know where Canada is, ha.

No worries, I appreciate your help! Ha, I just tried it in alex.lemmy.ca and it works! So it's only lemmy.ca I'm having the problem with. Thank you!
