@inquiline SO MANY FUCKING CRYBABIES OH MY GOD
but... but... but i thought this was *social media* where i say whatever insulting thing i want and because of my self-regard, everyone thinks it's fine
@inquiline at least when i used to be on a forum that was almost all guys from my high school at least i could slap them upside the head at school the next day
more people do need slapping
@inquiline i try to restrain myself anymore but mostly there are a lot of people who are just lucky they are far away
as you know i'm generally not that hotheaded but when these people make themselves out to be the victims of incivility from women [and other folks] who at no career stage attain the right to not be addressed like this, it makes me so mad
*maybe i am that hotheaded. on my last nerve w this behavior in particular
There's also people complaining about being reminded to put alt text in their images.
@inquiline It’ll be a good break for me from BS because the discourse is going berserk over the midterms and the Doomers are in ascendance, but I don’t think “this place is quiet and boring” is a real selling point for a social media hangout.
Zeb! there is no winning, only losing in different ways. (i was disappointed this week that the #kirkaversary hashtag was empty here, at least when i checked)
this place is still going hard in the supercilious computer-touchers department
@inquiline (I think this year they were using kirkmas but don't quote me on it)
@inquiline That’s not a bad idea. I have a curated moot list and feed on here I use to keep track of people but a whole account honestly makes a lot of sense
Is it?
In absence of more apt characterization, perhaps...
Though tumbleweed would suggest wide-ranging reproduction.
Not entirely sure there's quite that much roll to this place.
i guess i was thinking about isomorphism, relative emptiness and whooshing sound, but also a reply-guy found me and that’s who’s elicited this response. he thinks he’s playing gotcha but was compelled to reply to sand the edges off an association between “racism” and “europe” for some reason 🙄
Yep. Blocked that one upon seeing the interaction in question.
@inquiline it's GNU/Li— *is bayoneted*
@inquiline I wish I could be an example of how there is more to it... I'll try to do better...
you are neither tumbleweeds nor reply-guy. (i can't see into your heart re. linux 😂)
@inquiline there’s more to it, if we make it otherwise… stay fecund & feral, inquiline/y’all — amen, a’mend, aaambe!
you're an exception within a long procession of rules, ira 💚
@inquiline game recognize game, inqui
AND CRYBABIES my god
