TikTok being down less than a day.

Nobel Super Lemon candy is sour AF, if you have an Asian market near you.

Yeah, I’m not sure what it means either, which means I’m not sure how many red flags the earlier thread I linked should be setting off. A random mod on LW being respectability politics about neopronouns is meh, someone higher up the chain than that and it’s brake pumping time IMO.

Also like, presumably everyone else on LW thought they were allowed to moderate their communities how they saw fit before that announcement, you know? My understanding is the LW admins shelved the policy for retooling, not retirement, so personally it’s not something I would want to chance. I don’t think anyone is purposefully lying to you guys, but I also don’t think they’d make an exception just for 196 to do whatever it wants with any future instance rule changes.

I understand they’re not an admin. In the page I linked you can see they’ve been put in the “Community Team” section. Are you saying that “Community Team” is a convoluted title that the LW admins have chosen to say “person who mods /c/lemmyworld”? Or do they have some other role that I can’t find outlined anywhere? (Which could be on my end, the site I linked doesn’t play well with mobile)

Tomorrow’s looking like a stinker with the high wind and fire weather watch… stay safe!

I guess I’m not sure what a “Community Team” member does, then, if they have no control or input on how LW policies are carried out in communities. I can’t find an explanation anywhere here so maybe someone can point me in the right direction.

Bicycle, ie bicycling, I assume.

Did you know that people who keep isopods as pets have one variety called a dairy cow isopod that is spotted black and white like a cow?? Shit’s adorable

Is expressing my opinion about something jumping down your throat? Which part do you feel I need to phrase more politely?

Like, legitimately, I’m not trying to hurt anyone’s feelings here. You also know from my other reply that I’m trans and my comment comes from that background. If I’m not allowed to even say that I found something borderline transphobic without it being too combative or whatever, then to me that’s not a great sign.

I’m nearing an age where it’s not going to be physically possible for me to have my own soon, and my overwhelming feeling is ‘good.’ I never wanted to get pregnant and was always told I’d change my mind. Well, if I do, it’s going to be when I’m at an age where I’m far too old for it to matter anyway, lol.

This is correct, but the original was 195. They closed it I think either because it got bigger than they intended or because they were graduating or something, so the successor community 196 was made.

Reposting this since you said you were going to answer questions in the !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com post but this one is still unanswered:

If the move had nothing to do with pronouns and you’ll continue to enforce rules about neopronouns, how do you feel about one of the LW community team mods making statements like this about them? Do you feel confident that they will always let you enforce neopronoun rules if they decide that it’s hurting LW?

I played this game all the way through to the ending where you

but I fucked it up and died and haven’t had the heart to try again 🥲

I’m a trans man and nobody has ever hurt me by using neopronouns. The people who have harassed and assaulted me almost certainly feel the same way about people with neopronouns as they do about me. People who use neopronouns are my siblings, and if someone needs me to throw them under the bus to respect me or my pronouns then frankly they are also part of the problem.

Tl;dr, there’s a reason that people you can’t get on board with using she/her don’t set the standard for what a real pronoun is.

Truly every cat is a weird little guy (/pos)

I hope someone told them about the Waffle House Index used (unofficially) by FEMA.

Guaranteed to meet your maker on the first use or your money back!

+1. And escalators are annoying even when they’re functioning, I’m constantly on the verge of tipping over when I use them. Give me an elevator any day of the week.

Mods, they’re posting IRL pics of me!!

POLL: when your cat does this, do they flick one ear back at a time or both at once or keep them forward?

Our girl does them one at a time and it’s so goddamn cute
