Oh, I dunno, I personally enjoy watching crowds boo this jackass. It’s not tech news, but I’m willing to allow it.

Well, damn.

People seem to think he’s trying to make X successful. That’s not the point at all. He’s trying to convert what was once a useful commons into a smoking hole full of trolls and conspiracy theories. There’s just no other reasonable way to look at his actions.

I’ll take “Things That Need Butter” for $500, Alex.

I would have found this article more helpful if it had discussed what gender each of the new pronouns was meant to refer to. There didn’t seem to be much context there.

Conservatives monetized lying to people and ginning up exploitable rage. Rogan just wants his share of the take.

Doesn’t seem to be available for iOS in the US App Store.

It reminds me of some of the stuff I’ve seen during Boy Scout ceremonies.

Happy birthday, dude! 🎉

Missed the obvious “My mind to your mind” for the second line of the banner.

Hey, me neither.

I’m trying to be more kind. Normally, I tend to be analytical and abrupt. If someone is wrong, I try to demonstrate it a simply as possible and move on. If they’re right, that is good, there’s no reason to celebrate; move on. I find most people don’t respond well to any of this, for their own reasons. So, I’m trying to set that aside and simply be more gentle when handling interactions with another person.

Yes, I did.

I started with my screen name, since that’s what everything else uses by default. The field says “username” or something, not email, so I assume that’s correct.

Getting “Incorrect Login” even though I’ve entered valid credentials for lemmy.ml. What’s up with that?

Sure, make me go look it up. @OutOnTheMoors@beige.party or @CrazyMyra@mastodon.social.

There’s a woman over on Mastodon making the argument that he’s trying to destroy it so it can’t be used to organize left-leaning political action (fundraising, activism, issue messaging, etc) any longer. She makes a compelling argument.

Okay, thanks! I grabbed it and two things: switching accounts is terrible, and it’s making me nuts that I can’t swipe right to get back to the feed list (the “back” button isn’t doing it for me).

Cool! Can’t wait!
