Honestly, with my raised beds, between compost, seeds and fertilizer I probably lose money compared to buying tomatoes from the store. Home grown garden tomatoes are 10x better quality than grocery store tomatoes.

Bro I been growing edamame. Holy fucking shit. You'll fucking cum.

I joined Reddit during the digg exodus. Before digg I was into fark and before fark, something awful.

It's good that things die. it's where new mediums come from. It also keeps the power with the user. It's an important part of the internet life cycle.

Reddit still doesn't quite understand where their value is derived from.

Rest in piss.

To me its the same as people who removed about Elon on twitter.

You hate the guy? Thats fine.

But why are you still using his product? Stop paying him.

Airplane. Young Frankenstein. Emperors New Groove. Paper moon.

ayyyyyyy gottem

Habanero protein shakes with extra coconut oil.

Yeah I didnt realize they were giving away front row seats to the dumpster fire of a decade. I dont know if it can be worse than Elon buying twitter, but we can hope.

I just shitposted into one and got countered surprisingly witty. Yeah. A lot of those are Satire communities, at least atm.

Pretty sure r/TheDonald started as a satire community and it evolved into one of the largest white nationalist movements the world has ever seen.

You can subscribe to the "don't hit people of color" beta release for $59.99 a month.

What do they say?

When your opponent is making mistakes, let them.

Its an unfortunate ideology that everything in the world should be optimized around profit.

Huh. and i thought it was named after the guy from motorhead

That's the neat part. You don't.

So are we thinking 🤔 this would be more like figure skating? Perhaps power lifting? Maybe 🥋 judo?

I want to see a triple spin.

I think Le Guins "The Dispossessed" belongs here. Its a dystopian/ utopian comparative about an anarchist planet and a capitalist planet. Highly recommend. I've got a signed copy somewhere.

Such a weird concept to think of when it comes to something like Twitter.

I don't think twitters value was ever reflected in a share price. It's value was always to move and away opinions, which is far more difficult to put a value on. I know there is plenty of whining happening on Twitter, but as far as I can tell, there hasn't been a truly mass exodus. As long as users are using the platform it's value remains unchanged.

The saudis didn't buy it because they think Elon is reapply smart. they bought it because in some way they think it gives them the ability to leverage or move public opinion. As long as we give it out eyes, it stays valuable.

I mean Reddit is clearly a company that shoyld focus on making proft.

Reddit is a company that commoditizes human communities and profits from the free labor of those who are willing to put in the effort to belong to something. Their value is derived from the communities that use their platform and the communities derive value from the tools reddit creates that allows for them to organize.

Reddit should focus on being a good platform. The profit-centric focus degrades the quality of the platform and will be the death of the thing in the end. The expansionist attitude is the achiles heal of capitalism. Anything of value gets turned into shit under that motive.
