  • Thanks, I'll check out that article!

    There’s also a Raccoon for Lemmy app, created by the same developer

    It's what I use, actually!

  • That is actual insanity yeah, I have NSFW turned off even at home...

  • I've never tried out Friendica, but might just give it a shot since there's a Raccoon app for it too...

    It's kinda like Facebook, right?

  • Very, very tough question...

    🇵🇹 Maybe Polvo à Lagareiro or Arroz de Polvo. I really like octopus...

  • Unintentional Japan.

  • Fair point, fair point. I do mean the chemical shit. I'm not sure I've ever smelt live lavender.

  • Right, and I didn't try to make it that way, did I? I was making a statement about what I've seen in these kinds of jokes. It's always---or at the very least mostly, by a wide margin---the woman leaving.

    You're not the first person to read some sort of political statement in my question... I fail to see why. Why are you so weirdly attuned to this? And why are you so quick to jump at it? Message about gender roles? What are you even talking about?

  • What do you mean by that? /g

    Do you mean me or is that a general you? Genuinely confused.

  • Hmmm pine-y is great. I also love vanilla, though I hear some people think it's too sweet.

  • Lavender is the single most overrated scent in existence. I'll stand on that.

  • Hilarious!

  • I'm not sure what you mean by this. They're state-sponsored, but they are at least supposed to be free, on account of the firewall and the VOA charter.

  • Why is it always a woman leaving in memes?

    I feel like it's always "my wife left me" and never "my husband left me."

  • Awesome!!!!

  • Insanity.

  • There was more to say than that quote. Still, it does feel that good and bad ("good" and "bad") people have a different rulebook, and it's not as simple a fight as who wants things more, but rather who's willing to do more for them, and evil simply has more tools.

    It's not that good people don't try or don't want to make a difference, but rather that their scrupulous nature doesn't allow for the means necessary for rule, in the majority of the cases.

    Plenty of good people do succeed in reaching and using power to do good, or at least I do hope and think that that is the case. Higher the stakes, though, or more the power, less likely it is.

  • This depresses me beyond belief.

  • That's just so bleak. Sorry, but I refuse to believe you.

    Still, I do think many people can be swayed, and I need to work on my argumentation and persuasion... I do feel like, if people just take the time to read a little, to engage with politics on a level deeper than what the loudest voice screams on the news, they'll see that there's a way forward that doesn't have hatred of one's neighbor at its core.

  • I'll take your advice to heart. Thank you :D
