The energy tied up in all of that is so familiar. Just the entire vibe of senseless unmitigated cruelty and mindless nonsensical screaming hits so hard and reminds me so much of some of the shittiest people I've encountered in my life. What Joe describes feels like a horrible distillation of something that's a lot more pervasive than any one 'school' or cult or particular group of organized assholes systematically ruining people's lives. It hit hard. Thanks for sharing it.

Thanks! I'll give it a shot!

They've been around since at least the 80s. Probably earlier.

It literally took 30 years for the most expensive games to go up by $10.

This was me this morning but 11am.

Lemmy definitely feels like it's declined a lot over the past year across the board. Every thread is a fight. I see a lot of Reddit style combative comments all over the place and I'm just less and less enthusiastic to be using it. I've tried a handful of instances, including places like Beehaw, and even there the level of hostility I see is absolutely unhinged.

What? I asked what makes you certain that the dock isn't designed for it. If you're certain, presumably you have a reason for this certainty and already know the specs from looking at it. I can't see into your mind to know your motivation for making this assertion, which is why I asked.

I assume you have some expertise that makes this obvious to you, so would you like to share it?

I don't know what planet you're living on, but I like 3 pillows.

Presumably they're not frozen in time. The post was made a day ago, so at least several hours before your comment, and the picture was probably not taken minutes before the post was made. I'd imagine they got out of the water long before any of us were aware that they were ever in the water. And given that the picture isn't accompanied by a second picture of everything in the water or a story about them falling in, it's reasonable to assume that nothing as notable as that happened.

What makes you say the dock isn't designed to carry equipment?

It's much more effective to fracture a group by pretending to be part of it than by leveling criticism from the outside.

She's the only one thinkin' it through.
