    I mind it. In isolation it would be fine, but with their ignorance, these types punish and harm their families, mainly their children, who would otherwise just grow up to cut contact with them anyway, long as they didn’t end up sharing their views. Plus when it’s disease, they just have to walk near a person who isn’t another conservative to spread it. As we learned from covid, the best person to be wearing the mask is the sick one, and they don’t play along.


  • Yep, that’s me. When I still actively used reddit, I felt this with every message, was always afraid I was off the mark, or didn’t read the room, or said something wrong or ignorant.

    I just turned off notifications and ignored my karma count to just post through it. Though, I usually said things that either never got any votes, or that people seemed to generally agree with. And I was relieved whenever I did notice the numbers going up instead of down, and occasionally worked up the courage to check responses and continue conversations, but usually nothing.

    This has really not changed since moving to Lemmy, and really just persists through every website. It sucks, I mostly just don’t comment.


  • I feel the same way, my block list is massive. The app I use to browse, the lemmy version of Boost, also has a word filter option too, which isn’t on the desktop browser interface (I don’t think), so I can block names of certain people and current event incidents I’m not interested in seeing any more, without needing to block communities or users. It only works when the post actually has the words in the title, so ironic memes slip through all the time, but its better than nothing.

    I use emoji constantly on other platforms, specifically discord and steam. Like, I basically replace all my sentence-ending punctuation with doofy faces. But I don’t like using default unicode emoji, they suck. And I also generally don’t feel comfortable using emoji around strangers anyway.


  • Seafood is great, as long as you live near a coast. I think that gives a better chance that that “fishy” smell and taste is not overwhelming, because if that’s what you don’t like about it, I’m pretty sure it mostly shouldn’t be that way, I think it tends to be more mild the fresher they are. When in-land stores and restaurants import fish, it could be longer between catch and cooking than a coastal place.

    Or you just don’t like any seafood and nothing will change your mind, also valid.
