  • TED Talks are overrated. Basically it’s just a platform where self-centered pompous people take a microphone and say some of the most obviously sugar-coated shit that they can say. Then everyone in the audience all think that they’ve never heard this before and embrace for how ‘enlightening’ it is, when this guy is probably the 5th guy in line that has said the exact same things as the guy before them.


  • No. People are strapped in finances as is. My money right now is needed for expenses, I don’t have that much disposable income to be tossing it around to people. There’s thousands of homeless people out there. They need more help than just a couple dollars.

    I feel that I’m doing my part anyways by helping the needing, by donating to thrift stores, donating around my apartment and donating free things that I can. If there’s anything someone can flip for money, feel free to, it’ll probably be a lot more than what little I have to let go of from my finances.




  • Lemmy isn’t just full of political content, but it’s also full of assholes too that take advantage of the small sized community of Lemmy and other instances. So this gives the impression that it’s simply a clique that runs around ‘running things’ and by that, just kissing ass to mods and making you out to be the problem when it was started by them.

    With politically charged content and just random pricks mixed in, it’s going to be a hard sell for anybody to stick around here on Lemmy. Moreso, the lack of niche communities, will not give anyone a sense of belonging.

    That’s what Reddit will always have in spades against Lemmy. Lemmy just seems to be populated with political people, nerds into programming, jackasses and aimless wanderers.







  • Yeah, for everyone to see how fragile the mods are and can be. Were you trying to make up for an ultimate dunk kind of a response? Buddy, I know you, through you moderate some of the instances you’re in. You’re fragile, not allowing people to talk about some things in politics but allowing repeated posts to come over and over. You aren’t that great of a moderator yourself.

    Real mature of a mod, you want that politics instance to turn into Trumpland, don’t you? I bet you voted for him. You even got uptight because people doxxed a NeoNazi, so you’re a protector of NeoNazis.


  • Yeah but you also neglect how it is on the internet. People will twist contexts, interpret things wrongly and deliberately gaslight to make up just about anything anymore to have you disciplined. All the while they get to wander around freely and continue their passive aggressive bullshit.

    But I’ll bet you’ve never been on the receiving end of that, have you? That’s why you’ve said what you’ve said. And you close your comment out by saying something blatantly untrue which is a gaslighting tactic. Good to know you’re one of them.



  • Last year, I thought I was helping someone build their life back up. They couldn’t drive and they needed a job. This person was one of my exes.

    So I bought her a $400 bicycle to help her get around, plus accessories like a bike cover, lights and something else.

    Shortly after, she accused me of cheating on one of my long-tenured friends of 20 years. Because I was going out on thrift runs with her and there was even a point where we all talked in my vehicle using the hands-free communication feature to show we were friends. My friend also was already in a 14 year long relationship with a boyfriend already.

    Ex breaks up, gets away with how much I spent despite submitting numerous return tickets to refund the money. Never got the full amount and I only ended up getting $31 back as a compensation because of her reluctance. Bitch should’ve been pressured to return the items.
