Got a coworker where his sinuses just built up again or something after a few years and his doctor told him he'd have to have it done again. Best of luck to you.
Not really well, at least to my knowledge. Neither of the options I'm aware of work with mobile apps for lemmy.
There was some site that would attempt to auto redirect to a person's home instance, and there are a few userscripts for browsers that try to do the same thing with normal instance specific links like yours.
There is a lemmy redirector app for android that tried to work like the userscripts, and maybe I'm not using it right, but I've never gotten it to work on my phone alongside lemmy apps.
That was exactly my point. It absolutely qualifies as "trying to/working on having a kid", definitely as much or more so than tracking cycles for unprotected sex. Similar for the IVF process.
It's work and it's not easy.
Bringus Studios on youtube has a lot of "Getting Steam OS running on weird thing" videos if you get a kick out of this sort of stuff.
You'd like lemmy.dbzer0.com (lemmy) or anarchist.nexus (piefed) then. Run by the same folks.
Not a co-op, but they've put in place systems for instance users to democratically vote on all big administrative changes, any user can start a "radical" vote to oust any mod or admin, and people who have donated to the running costs (even just once) get more vote. Enough that people invested get more weight, but they wouldn't be able to completely override the will of the rest of the userbase.
Politically anarchist, pro-piracy (head admin and creator is former head mod of reddit's r/piracy), accepting of AI (mostly pushing for local models, so corps aren't the only ones with power) but don't really have issues with anti-corp-AI views as long as you aren't being a dick to the pro-AI comms/users.
Bean's got the goods! Thank you for making entrepreneurial content!
You don't need sex to have a kid, actually. There's the adoption process and IVF as well. Both would also technically be "trying for a baby", but people usually are more specific when talking about those.
I'm sure understanding those things helps, but it's not an easy thing to hear for people stuck in an imbalance in the relationship.
Sure doesn't feel "healthy" when you feel your needs aren't being met, especially when you get told the problem is you because you want more than they are willing to give.
"A big part of my love language is physical intimacy. When my partner doesn't reciprocate any interest in it, despite every attempt on my end to communicate my needs, it makes me feel unloved. I'm hurting and you're going to tell me it's my fault?"
Look, it's very easy to casually give advice like this when you aren't stuck in what feels like a fundamentally broken relationship.
That sounds great. No offense to OP, but even with the blur the speed of theirs would just make me anxious all the time.
Hey, this doesn't fit this comm. It's meant to be for people intentionally making bad uis for shits and giggles, not for complaints about dark patterns actually out there.
Copying this from my reply downthread, because respectfully, I disagree that intolerant speech must by necessity be met with censorship or violence:
There's a sentence in the paradox of tolerance that is universally fucking ignored.
In this formulation, I do not imply, for instance, that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion, suppression would certainly be most unwise.
That's from the original author, Karl Popper, in the piece in which he originally defined it.
I'll openly accept that in many situations, we're past the point where things can be reasonably kept in check by rational argument and public opinion. But that is what we should be reaching for, not the normalization of this constant state of rage we all seem to be heading towards.
Someone gifted this to my wife and I after our successful IVF. Still haven't put our photos in it, and everytime I see it I giggle.
Miracle Love Baby sounds like some magical girl anime shit.
Honestly? That's rookie numbers.
Preface
I'm not trying to call out the mod action of removing my post from the comm so much as I'm calling out the complete lack of mod action leading to the comm becoming shit and having the current top post by scaled, hot, and active being a post that explicitly targets another lemmy user.
That out of the way... !mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world has clearly been slipping from the purpose of the comm for a while now. Most of the posts are actually infuriating and/or political. I understand that what qualifies as either of those can be different for different people, but I feel most of this shit clearly isn't mundane or simple enough to fall under the label of just mildly infuriating.
Here's some examples from the first page right now, sorted by scaled.
While I could have sworn the sidebar had a no politics rule, it doesn't at the time of me writing this up, so politics are arguably acceptable, although I personally feel these all clearly don't match the theme of the community, violating Rule 7.
Sidebar, and expanded rule 7
A few other posts have been made calling this out.
Mod harder and [META] What actually constitutes "mildly infuriating" content?
################################
Beyond all that mess, we have what was the final straw for me.
Rule 1 (and less so 5), and the current top post by scaled, hot, and active.
I cannot accept that a post to mildly infuriating that targets a specific user while not even removing their username is respectful, and I personally consider it harassment (while it may not violate rule 5 as there is no call to action). Removing the username is usually the bare minimum even in the fucking reddit brigading subs, for plausible deniability.
And regardless of whatever arguments can be had about interpretations of the community's specific rules, it's a dick move. Just block the guy. It reminds me of the god awful reddit dogpiling and brigading. I don't want any of that to come to lemmy.
So I reported it, then saw the recent posts asking mods for action that got no response. I then looked at the mods.
So I did something dumb as hell. Roughly an hour after I reported it, I made my own post (now removed from the comm). I find people who make call out posts about others, and the absentee mods allowing it, mildly infuriating. Yeah, childish as shit. What's done is done.
Modlog:
Removed for "doesn't fit community", but what do you folks think? Does it really not fit when the top post is what it is? Personally I think both should be gone, lest that comm descend further into shit.
Either way, now that I have this yell into the void out of me, I'm blocking the comm. Maybe I should have made my post in actually infuriating? (kidding)
That is a threat.
From some back to school flyer.
I have so many great memories from childhood vacations to Mystery Flesh Pit National Park. I cant believe the disaster happened all the way back in 2007.
At least someone has been collecting and documenting everything they can find from the old place: https://www.mysteryfleshpitnationalpark.com/
I still can't make it all the way through the disaster report.
Definitely a repost, but it fits the season
Where meme?
