And now some people don't count as people

Holy shit How did it feel to be so content and one second later realize you didn't ever own what you accepted as reality?
Problem is, when you let people like him slide when he's playing his little games, the games keep getting a little more grand. That's all it is to him. And now he gets to go "What??" When knows damn well semantics matter. He knows the little republican signals matter. They all know what they're doing.
Stand back and stand by
Only damn bean thing I've laughed at
Two words hold a lot of weight these days it seems... Fake News
If need be, God need not die, it's all just Fake News. Heck one day it might even just disappear.
I read every word and couldn't have written it better myself. It's a perfect letter to every nasty money hoarding dragon out there...the grinches stuck in time that never reform. Just take and take and take, glad that we rebuild, because it just creates more to take
Been on the internet a long time myself...earliest chat I can remember is something called PowWow? We could see each other type in real time...same thing as the writer though...no bad memories...just kinda talked to whoever :)
It's right under "bot account" on my screen....I'm on the desktop site though (thru my phone but still)
Yeah but never on an airplane, airplanes are ALLLLWWAAAYYYSS those nasty little salt-less pretzels
Yep, just found it the moment I realized it was a thing in this thread - go to your account settings and you'll find an option to unselect bot accounts
I wish there was a way to just mark bot accounts...like finding out it's a bot doing most the posting in TIL...wtf is that? If the community needs a bot to grow it, perhaps it's not an important community on Lemmy at this time? Perhaps there's another sub that's going to grow more organically? In which we will infact learn something today?
Just want bot-less communities (other than fun/helpful ones that aren't Grond) that aren't headed by greed. Jfc.

I'm really not looking for a Reddit replica. And um, being rewarded for a good comment isn't really something I need. Or anyone needs. I think getting a cookie for a good comment can be left behind
Edit to add - I should have read the rest of the post more carefully, but I stand by my initial sentiment. Money needs to be funneled into those working hard on this, but I don't know, I don't want more and more Reddit features coming out
I have two! I'll stick with the quick gross one for now.
I work on a farm and typically walk around barefoot - it's just easier to get around in general. So I'm in our greenhouse dedicated to tomatoes. It's pretty big, about a hundred feet long and fifty feet wide, and it's late July so this thing is just overgrown with huge tomato plants. But we're a fairly small operation so while there are many plants - about 700 - they aren't exactly strung up neatly. Just a veritable jungle of leaves, branches, green, ripe and rotten tomatoes everywhere. Including the floor.
So I'm in there pussyfooting and tip-toeing through openings of plants trying not to smoosh plants - or significantly worse yet step square into a rotten tomato - when it happens.
SQUISHHHHH
"BLECH!" I spit out recoiling my foot, scrunching my face and looking down, my disgust morphing to horror. Oh, if only I had stepped on a tomato and not a bloated, dead rat.
Why isn't this giving me a severe case of the thalassophobias??
I think it needs to be a little deeper..gotta melt a few more glaciers I think
