Did Donald Trump eat so many Cheetos he actually turned orange? I'm not saying that's true, I'm just asking the questions.

Important note is that Hot is current broken in Lemmy leading to older posts getting boosted to the top in error. It's currently being worked on for the next release.

PLEASE - Just do anything to give Youtube a run for its money. They're steamrolling right now due to the promise of ad-revenue to streamers though. Idk how to fight that

This incident won't be the last straw, but it will be the turning point of a slow and general decline.

I'm not sure if I was the intended reply, but as someone with a Beehaw account I can say that this defed is intended to be temporary and at the behest of better mod tools and better moderation of the offending instances.

I have a giant shadow spider that descends from the ceiling onto my face all while I have the stuck in the mud feeling.

Try to login with the creds you set. I never received a follow up email and on a whim tried my creds and it worked.

That being said, I know they also are having problems approving all of the new applicants given the influx and manual process. Keep trying though! While I'm on Kbin as well, Beehaw is my preferred instance so far given the structure and moderation.

In all honesty, its better to a have a few accounts anyway. Imagine your main instance goes down for a period of time or permanently. Your account will go down with that ship. Having a few affiliated accounts across the fediverse will help mitigate user downtime. I've got accounts at Beehaw, lemmy.world, and here at Kbin.

RIF user here, and I had to move it off my home screen (replaced with Jerboa for Lemmy) but I still can't bring myself to delete it yet :(

Honestly that makes the weird pacing of this season make a bit more sense. Not that I didn't like it, just that it was outside of the typical narrative arc. For instance, basically introducing the main character on what was it? episode 2 or 3? Almost like the first two episodes were build ups to the setting and lore. Then show turns into a scifi noir.

Lol I legit don't know if I need more fuel in that fire, but I'll consider it

I think one answer that's not yet been provided is that many people generally "don't know, and don't want to know". They just want it to work the way they want. Politics, social engagement, philosophy, and other broad concepts are gigantic and difficult topics. These strong men figures understand that if they can just say they're taking care of "it" they can also get a lot of what they want as well.

Religion is largely the same, and you'll see a ton of overlap from these kind of people. Often so much so that the venn diagram is nearly a circle. It's just more comfortable and easy to not be introspective and address your own personal biases and entrenched beliefs. Why do that when big strong guy can hurt others when they argue with you.
