yeah anyone who judges a group by its redditors is simply too online. most atheists are just minding their own business and not posting on r/atheism lol

besides if the worst thing atheists do is be cringe online, that still pales in comparison to the worst things religious people have done (untold amounts of war, imperialism and genocide) plus they're also cringe - at least Christians sure are

oh yeah I meant to ask if there was a good service for streaming my local library. haven't heard of navidrome, thanks I'll look into it

[โ€“] turmoil@hexbear.net 4 points 1 week ago

yeah the free version just kept getting worse. I knew it was over when the app tried to force me to listen to Jack Harlow, instead of just letting me continue the last playlist I was listening to

besides Spotify still makes money from the ads even if I'm muting them, and I don't want to contribute another penny to that corporation

the horizon line isn't level. rotate it and you'll see Trump is the only one standing weird

admittedly I don't know any of the details and could be wrong. but are the kinds of people who listen to Talk Tuah really buying into these crypto grifts? seems like too much effort for your average normie. I just assumed most people who bought in are already into crypto trading and just throw money at whatever seems like it might take off

essentially yeah but I think the difference is that a rugpull involves selling off immediately, rather than playing the long game. if the creators of bitcoin had rugpulled early on it wouldn't be worth so much today. the smarter move is to sell off small amounts over time to avoid mass panic and keep the line going up. but a memecoin was never going to have that kind of longevity

yeah I think this is it. she went viral and immediately became surrounded by the worst types of grifters (her podcast is on Jake Paul's network and Mark Cuban was a guest) so probably someone like that convinced her that crypto was a "legitimate" way to bank off her fame. but yeah it's a scam either way

the conspiratorial part of me thinks that a pump-and-dump was coordinated by a group totally unconnected to her, with the intention of tarnishing her name. anyone with enough capital could have done that
