I assumed this is what you might consider once confronted not like put “ICE confrontation time” on your calendar

The point is calling their bluff

Our LG washer/dryer are about 15 years old now, still working incredibly well and look new. Definitely worth looking into

He sells whoever he is partnered with, my uncle is that guy, he will sell you a shitty Maytag

I bought a Fisher-Paykel dishwasher from a friend (lots of high end brands will give you a “free” dishwasher with purchase of bigger appliances) for $400 and I’ve been thrilled with it A lot of people sell their free dishwasher cheap

I feel this way about the whole internet these days

This, especially if you’re like me and reply to other people mostly. I often respond to some of the top comments/interesting comments because I enjoy talking to people and “piggy backing” absolutely can net you insane karma. The key is getting in on popular threads early and piggy backing on a top comment. My account I killed when they killed Apollo was well into the hundreds of thousands of comment karma

I was an ultra early Reddit user, frankly it’s incredibly simple, money. Several years back Reddit really started blowing up internationally and we stopped the nerd shit several years before that, no more “because reasons” or “the condoms are under the sink” silly in-jokes, or recognizable friendly power users, I was a lesser power user but hit the front page several times. It becoming international was a little bumpy cause the grammar Nazis we’re struggling with non American users and other culture type things but in general redditors were gracious and accepted people who weren’t English as first language users. When Aaron Swartz was outed and subsequently killed himself I think it was really the beginning of the end. Once Aaron was gone, once the Trump subreddits started being pumped by Russian troll farms and the final nail in the coffin, going public for bigger profit there was no going back. They sold out to political interests then sold out for money. Greed for money and power killed Reddit. All that said, Lemmy is a lot more quiet, obviously but it feels like the Reddit from ~20 years ago and I’ve been really enjoying it.

My instance is being closed so hopefully I can find a new home here I enjoy as much, that’s the biggest downside I’ve seen so far, you can essentially just lose your account due to others.

I live here! If I chose to be willfully ignorant I’d be no better than all those on the right I’ve been talking about being willingly ignorant for decades

I’m no hypocrite

I don’t have an answer for you but as a straight woman I’m always really taken aback by “the other F word” I’ve defended many of my gay friends from this slur after they told me they were uncomfortable or simply confronted people about using it in my presence and while I also get the “taking back your power angle” I think it’s more a thing you should do with friends you know well enough to know they’re ok with it because lots of people do find it offensive and I know straight allies like myself will absolutely not be comfortable with it, even if I just assume you’re a self hating gay or an edgelord because I’ve spent a lot of energy over the years fighting that word

Just my 2¢

I don’t know if people like him or not but I find all of John Ham’s performances to be really similar. Even when playing a villain in Baby Driver he sucked, no one believes this milquetoast man who’s delivering a completely flat performance is some bad ass tough guy, granted all the “villains” except spacey were absolutely terrible and cliche in an otherwise fun and good movie.

He’s just really boring, really flat, he’s never made me feel or think anything he’s always “John Ham” regardless of the role he’s in
