I actually mentioned that in a comment above. Reddit used to be just as bad, if not worse indeed, but that doesn’t excuse Lemmy by any means. I do hope that it’s a good indicator that Lemmy will get better with time, though.

So tangential storytime: my husband recently discovered one of these channels (not sure if it’s this one or just a similar one), and specifically this goddamned song called “I glued my balls to my butthole again.” He will. Not. Stop. Playing it. He thinks it’s fucking hilarious, especially the more I roll my eyes.
Anyway, yes these channels are a blight, something needs to be done about them, and if anyone needs a husband they can find mine on the curb blasting that song on a loop lmao
Idk how unprecedented it is, it’s happening in Oklahoma too, unfortunately
Goodness gracious, it’s almost like you’re commenting on the thread almost a day later and maybe the comments are a bit different now, as opposed to earlier.
It’s a lot like Reddit was back in the old days in that way :/
The undercurrent of misogyny is so so rampant on Lemmy, worse even than reddit was. Posts like this bring it right out. I can’t believe how many upvotes some of these red-pill-ass comments have. It’s really discouraging to see and often makes me too nervous to speak up on women’s issues here on Lemmy, lest I be absolutely brigaded.
At least the bear can’t use a keyboard and thus wouldn’t be able to try and bully me into shutting up on the internet, so there’s another instance where I’d choose a bear over a random man.
Just like internalized misogyny is very much a thing in women, internalized racism is a thing, too. It’s sort of like a poor person aligning themselves with the rich against their own interests, if that’s easier for you to visualize. All that to say, I agree with the other commenter— that cop is blue.
Heaven forbid we fix the actual problem, the exploitative nature of the sites themselves. No no, let’s control the kids and keep them off certain websites instead, that’s always worked so well before.
I personally think the company you choose to keep says a lot about you. There’s being polite with your partner’s friends and then there’s being all over someone like a bestie. It’s amazing how well her PR machine works that she gets white knighted so much, even on Lemmy. May I remind everyone that she is a billionaire and didn’t get to be one accidentally. She’s just as bad as the rest of them, she just pays people to make her seem not as threatening, and it’s clearly working based on all the free defense she gets on the internet.
She’s not your friend. Arguably, she’s Brittany Mahome’s friend.
Following up with an “You’re right, I don’t know you”
Idk, the recent pic of her chummy day/night out with Brittany Mahomes planted quite a bit of doubt for me. There was a lot of speculation after those pictures released that she’d come out for Kamala, to get ahead of any backlash.
It looks like fabric scraps roughly stuffed with fluff. With a little help/guidance, a five year old could definitely make this. Working with needle and thread isn’t some archaic lost knowledge, lol. I’ve found that if we have faith in them and let them try stuff, kids can do all kinds of stuff we don’t think they should be able to.
Have been? It’s already done for the most part. AFAIK, there’s only one, maybe two companies still making phones with headphone jacks. Drives me up a wall, I fucking hate it.
Is it just me, or does she look GINORMOUS compared to that child? He looks at least 3, but is the relative size of my 5 month old?
Yes. Then later, throwing up hair balls together will be a bonding experience.
I would click through some of the examples in your wiki link and try and notice a few things that most of the antebellum houses have in common. They’re usually defined by the their blocky shape and the large columns in front; very Greek-revival.
This house, however, has completely different details and layout. Beyond the fact that it’s missing the telltale columns and imposing silhouette, the design is more intricate and a touch more delicate. The Victorians loved fine details, and were very ‘extra’ in that way.
But honestly, all of that aside, the biggest tell is just the date it was built. A different style was simply the fashion then compared to earlier in the century. Just like how mid century modern was it’s own thing outside of WW2 era suburban homes, though they’re similar.
I mean, yeah. It’s just a different style altogether. Parlors and room number has nothing to do with what the house looks like and the architectural era it belongs to.
It would be more accurate to say that it smacks of the gilded age (a time of the greatest wealth disparity in our history) than of the civil war era, even though that still isn’t quite right, as the Victorian era is its own thing outside of the Edwardian era.
The US has had more than one age of servitude beyond just the obvious slavery era, sorry to say. It’s kind of our brand.
Do you mean plantation era…? Because it doesn’t seem like any plantation era house I’ve seen. More like a pretty standard Victorian, imo, which tracks for when it was built. I’m just a lay person, however, and certainly no architect, so I could be wrong.
No, but deciding to comment is a choice you made, not something out of your control like something appearing in your feed.
