I wrote a term paper once about how twitter would enable citizen journalism and lead to a more informed public and a healthier, more direct democracy. I got an A.

I was a pretty huge fan of Zune and I still miss it.

Well he is the most attractive man in the galaxy.

He’s young at heart a spring chicken in the prime of life an emotionally stunted manchild.

Quick reminder to anyone reading, since the other reply here implied implications about what is to be done: whatever your opinions on violence may be you should never, under any circumstances, suggest that yourself or others should or will commit violent or illegal acts in your own country or countries that your country has extradition treaties with.

The revolution will not happen on Lemmy or any other public forum. You can only hurt yourself and your fellow travelers by posting violent threats or incitement to other illegal activity. Do not post credible threats. The cops can and will show up at your house.

Hell of a shot at a moving target, and if you miss that bullet is going to bounce and hit something or someone you weren’t aiming at. Technically possible, but very unfeasible.

Oh hey, this reminds me, I really need to cancel that before it renews

What leads you to believe I’m the one being blocked? Anyone can read any message posted on here. Look, I ain’t trying to upset anyone. I was just curious. Have a nice day.

The people are not terminally stupid, but the situation we find ourself in is. Stupid can also mean vexatious.

This country is absolutely in the midst of an ongoing class war. It is also incredibly stupid. This shit don’t work, son!

I cut my teeth on Reddit, personally. A long, long time ago, I used a certain anonymous imageboard but I stopped when I finally realized that what were edgy jokes to me were actually pretty serious business to the worst kinds of people. When I block people I just… y’know, block them. They can scream at the void, it’s whatever. I don’t engage with trolls, because telling them off often encourages them. I’m not trying to antagonize you here, I was just curious because you’re the second or third person I’ve seen post a “get blocked loser” type of message in the past few hours.

I took an extended break from Lemmy but since I came back I’m noticing a lot more people announcing when they block other people. Can I ask why you felt the need to let everyone know you were blocking this person and/or what other social media you’ve used in the past? Like is this a twitter thing I don’t understand?

It’s almost like that’s what the individual mandate was supposed to do. This country is so stupid, single payer just makes sense but no, dEaTh PaNeLs, as if that’s not what fucking Aetna has always done.

Well I personally blame Chuck Schumer for having no spine

Just order a large, Farva.

The classic marketing move of making your customers associate your store with a subtle feeling of discomfort.
