I still don’t think you procreate if you stick it up the garbage disposal.
It’s one of my favorite anime, but the characters can be really annoying sometimes. Still, I found it to be less annoying later on, as the stakes got raised and things start to go to shit
Me showing up to the next protest with a big-ass magnet:
I don’t buy it
a good approach to Ubisoft games
onion ring
lmao
It has a steep learning curve, but it’s super nice to use once you’re over the initial bump
Man, that’s brutal. The way he keeps on walking for a few steps before collapsing…
I just want Russia to get out of Ukraine and this senseless slaughter to end
Good message, but holy hell, this belongs in !aneurysmposting@sopuli.xyz
Thanks for the reply! I missed most of the drama, but yes, it was a mess and I can see why you’d jump to conclusions. I still think that rule 5 should either be removed/reworded or at least supplemented by some guidelines as to what constitutes ‘politics’, but I realize now this is neither the time nor the place to discuss that with the nuance it deserves. For now, I’m content with some very non-credible coping strategies for all the clusterfucks happening in the world. Thanks for the work you’re doing for the community c:
I think both @Cassa@lemmy.blahaj.zone and me very much care about this community and about how to improve it. Since this is a meta post by a mod, talking about the rules, I thought it’s the best place to talk about what we think about certain aspects of the rules, and how they could be abused. This is not an attempt to start up drama or to denigrate any work done by moderators, but an attempt at conversation.
I’m not a fan that that is met with the suggestion to go somewhere else and create a new community. People have grown attached to this community, and I don’t think anyone wins in this kind of all or nothing stance.
My apologies if a conversation about rules and their interpretation is not wanted here, but is there any other place to talk about meta topics like this?
It’s also a legitimate question: what constitutes politics in the eyes of the moderators? That question cannot be answered without bringing one’s own politics into the discussion. Is queer people existing political? Bigots would claim so. Besides, war is just politics though violent means, and satire should also always be political. So being strict on the “no politics” rule is next to impossible, and selective enforcement is often worse than none at all.
I’m gonna second French and Arabic for sheer amount of speakers (native or as secondary language), as well as geographic variety.
Other than that, I would’ve said that Russian would serve you well in the post-soviet sphere of influence, but that changed recently for obvious reasons. You very likely don’t want to travel to Russia, and her neighbors don’t look to kindly on Russian either, now. Will still do in a pinch
okay, and one joke answer: Japanese, you’ll find weebs to talk to in every country
I gagged
Or, by its common name, the Black Emperor beetle
Which you claim is…?
I stated my position quite clearly. Do you suggest some deeper agenda is at work here?
Every time you leave your house you have a chance to be hit by a car. It’s many orders of magnitude more likely than to get killed by a terrorist attack. Yet everyone still drives cars.
The fear of terrorism has been used to curtail so many liberties. Always as a temporary measure. Draconian pre-flight security screenings? (seriously, not being allowed to bring water?): “temporary”. Expansion of the surveillance state and policing: “temporary”.
It’s time to start asking wether this is all worth it. The fetishization of “security above all” in modern political rhetoric is a bad thing, in my opinion.
chapeau.
