Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)

Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.

Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc

(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

They've been very cagey about their reasons, so naturally the comments are split between making the worst/most hilarious assumptions, making jokes, and actual helpful advice.

What am I missing? It's pretty clearly a bit of dark humour about the missing submarine

In responses within the thread, the OP actually sounds like they have a plan they intend to go through.

Regardless of whether this is genuine or not, the responses are hilarious (and interesting).

Exactly. I just checked back and the OP has updated it with a heap of detail.

Not sure how to link in the fediverse but this is the link for me: original asklemmy thread

Thank you, kind poster

I love dark humor and I have to - regretfully!! - confess that I do not get it. What?? How is someone wanting to not poop for days related to the submarine? Is it just that they didn't have a bathroom on board because they didn't anticipate being gone that long?

I am genuinely so sorry to ask! I know explaining kills the joke, and I don't mind if you don't answer because you don't want to kill it, I'm okay with not getting it.

I mean, it was dark humour, but as I read it, the comment was about those people trying to survive on that tiny sub for several days before they could be rescued, with no extra food, no toilet and no space.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They did have a toilet behind a small curtain and they would play music while it was being used. They were encouraged to use it as little as possible. So, yeah, OP could be making a joke about that.
Or it's someone going on a camping trip who doesn't want/can't use public toilets.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

It's definitely a camping trip. He talks about a tent.

I think theres evidence that it imploded just 2 (ish) hours into the dive.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Not when it was posted though

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yes but that isn't funny
