Idk bro I’m just here so I don’t get fined

Repost. Shame!

Nah jk I actually hadn’t seen the original post anyway, thank you for your service. But should still prob get removed

I’m on Lemmy all the time and I didn’t know that community. But thanks for sharing, this is what I’m talking about.

Tbf you’re on Lemmy 24/7 so you’ll hear about things much earlier than many others. I’ve also been on Piefed for a minute.

But I’ve come to understand how slowly knowledge propagates through large numbers of people, at least via this medium. First with the APIcaplyse, when I realized that virtually nobody on reddit had even heard of the API changes, let alone moving to Lemmy. And then on Lemmy itself with various major events/dramas that people were totally unaware of until much later.

Piefed is developing rapidly and seems like a worthy alternative to Lemmy and Mbin. The private voting feature is also really cool.

Nah. That’s the 2nd biggest server, most of their users are okay. They do get a lot of trolling from alt accounts since they’re still federated with you know who tbf. But overall they are a valued component of the fediverse and they also provide a buffer for the rest of us.

Yeah playing with organized teams is so much better than soloQ. The entire game revolves around teamwork but then they throw 5 randos together with no voice chat and it’s just an incubator for frustration.

Flaming is probably less now because the game is getting kinda old and people don’t take it as seriously anymore. I haven’t played in several years so idk.

I guess that’s possible, I was just saying the two most likely things that came to mind. I wouldn’t necessarily expect money launderers to rely on a teenager, but I also don’t have any personal experience in this area.

Harsh but fair. Surprised Alex didn’t pick up on this

Probably either from crypto or dealing drugs

I didn’t downvote. But I didn’t upvote either.

It’s just not really a good meme at all, so it’s going to get downvotes. That’s what downvotes are for.

The more unusual circumstance is that it got so many upvotes despite being a crappy meme. This clearly indicates that we have a lot of Lemmy users who support trans youth. Good for us, that makes me glad. Still not good content for this particular community imho, so I didn’t upvote.

Yeah I do this frequently. Then I randomly go back to people’s profiles and often find interesting communities and threads that way.

It’s not an entertaining meme

Seems like it’s just one of his styles

Do we have yous/youse? According to my understanding that’s technically not a real word yet, it’s slang.

2nd person singular used to be thou/thee back in the middle ages, but it all eventually melded into you.

I feel like y’all is the newer American version of 2nd person plural, while yous/youse/yinz are the non-American English counterparts.

I have always used you guys in a gender neutral manner historically, but people occasionally got offended by that. So I started using y’all several years ago and it’s been going pretty good. Although I did initially spell it like ya’ll until someone corrected me on reddit 😅

My point is that technically you are still making decisions about what to do with some odors body parts without consent, as they can no longer consent. Is there really a difference?

That’s a good point, you’re right.

That’s interesting about the eyes, I’m honestly not sure what to say about that.

Yeah most of the ones in the second list at least had a couple of notable things about them that kept them off the first list. I was hoping people with local experience would chime in if they had reason to dispute my rankings; I’m sure there’s some cool aspects of these cities that I might not be aware of.

Carson City is nearby Lake Tahoe which is pretty awesome. Lansing is actually a decent sized city and has Michigan State University. Topeka is reasonably close to KC, and presumably has some other notable features 😅

Montgomery and Jackson are pretty dire but there’s not really any better cities/options in Alabama or Mississippi, so I gave them an A for effort.

Wow, good source. 82% donor rate for the opt-out group versus 79% for the forced-choice is a smaller difference than I would have guessed.

I’m pretty sure people do make their wishes clear regarding their funeral preparations. You can put that kind of stuff in your last will and I would assume it holds some legal weight.

I actually agree that organ donation should be opt-out, but there is an unavoidable argument against that. Namely, the fact that people have the right to opt-out at all implies that you have a responsibility to verify their informed consent before enrolling them in the procedure. At least, that would be the conventional wisdom according to the field of medical ethics.

There’s honestly a lot of lame state capitals in the US, Europeans might be surprised. In Europe the national capital of each country is typically the biggest and most cosmopolitan city. This is not the case when it comes to state capitals in the US. Several of the most boring ones (Montpelier, Augusta, Pierre) have already been mentioned, so I’ll just add a few others.

Indubitably Boring

• Frankfort, Kentucky
• Jefferson City, Missouri
• Helena, Montana
• Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Slightly Less Boring (honorable mentions)

• Carson City, Nevada
• Jackson, Mississippi
• Topeka, Kansas
• Olympia, Washington
• Lansing, Michigan
• Salem, Oregon
• Trenton, New Jersey
• Montgomery, Alabama
• Springfield, Illinois
• Tallahassee, Florida
• Concord, New Hampshire
