Arguably the most disliked person on Lemmy, because I defend free speech and civil rights, and I push back against Fascists, Nazis, and Lemmy Groupthink.

  • Yeah, it's weird. And yes, I am in the states. And actually police are pretty trustworthy here, it's just the bad ones that make the news, and the bad news is what everyone reads.

    But in this case, the police just seemed like it wasn't worth the effort. And that may be true. I posted on a neighborhood site and the vast majority said it was probably just a scam or someone wanting to ask for money.

    Now that I've had time to reflect, I'm not as upset by it. Because there were plenty of other places on my street and in this part of town that she could have gone if really in distress. Still wish I would have answered the door sooner, but I've followed the local news since, and it doesn't seem like anything bad happened. So probably all worked out.

  • I have cam footage from both my driveway leading up to my porch and my porch. No one is with her as she comes up to porch or as she walks away from porch. She may still have been a scammer, but it wasn't that scam.

  • Good point. On the other hand, if she's missing maybe someone knows her or recognizes her.

  • Thanks for that!

  • Yeah, I have heard of that scam. And I think it's a real thing, but not in this case--at least for that scam. Because my vid shows her walking up and walking away alone.

    But I think I've finally relaxed and am not as worried for her as I was. Lots of houses here. Lots of stores down the street less than a block away. And she didn't run to or from my door. So whatever it was, it def didn't appear life threatening as in she was in immediate danger.

    I have two cars in my driveway as well. Truck and a jeep. So I don't think anyone was scouting my house thinking I'm little old lady. I've watched the video over and over. No torn clothes. Hair was up in a neat bun. Wasn't crying.

    But the out of breath part and the saying she needed help because something terrible happened is what sorta is sticking with me. Even tho, since I wrote the post and cleared my thoughts a bit, who actually says that outloud when talking to themselves?! And the lack of urgency in the walking to and from my door is strange. But also, I know that people under stress react differently, so..

    What does disappoint me tho, is how little the police seemed to worry about it. They just didn't see it as a big deal. I played the vid. They agreed it was strange. But no one asked for copy of my vid or screen shot the vid or anything. I checked missing persons site for my area. Checked police blotter. No missing people that match this. So I guess I'll just have to accept I did what I did. And if something does happen, then I have a time stamp, so I'm saving the vid.

  • Oh wow, that is an interesting coincidence! Thanks for the info.

  • Which is why I won't bullied off of Lemmy.

  • Well it is pretty far away. And the whole point of the article was we are learning new things every day about planetary processes.

  • On Earth, deltas form when rivers slow down as they reach larger bodies of water. These formations are important to scientists because they preserve geological, climatic, and even biological history over long periods.

    So the article is saying that Titan’s lack of deltas is surprising because of its active river systems of methane and ethane.

    Means that maybe we're wrong to assume that wherever there are flowing rivers of liquid and sediment, deltas will naturally form.

  • Again, not me.

  • Is it because you know they have the receipts? Yeah dude, I know a few mods.

    There are no receipts because I'm not Universal Monk.

    I'm not the subject of OP's post and I'm not the mod who banned him. Let it go and move on.

  • And if you’ve forgotten, I’m the one you PM’d with threats and personal attacks that finally got you banned from LW.

    I've never threatened you with a PM or in any other way, and I'm not banned from LW (that I know of because it's a toxic instance and I rarely post there).

    And I'm not the subject of OP's post and I'm not the mod who banned him.

    I am reporting you now, because you've went to far by saying I have threatened you, and it appears you're just trying to get into a slapfighting contest.

    Please stop accusing me of stuff, and please leave me alone.

  • Little difference to me, Monk.

    I'm not Monk.

    troll that’s been banned from multiple instances for harassment- all they have to do is ask.

    I haven't been banned from anywhere for harassment.

    Again, I am not the subject of OP's post and I'm not the mod who banned him.

  • I’m sure you’ve reported me already for it.

    I have not. Again though, I’m not the subject of OP’s post or the mod that banned him. Let it go and move on.

  • There’s a mod on LW that banned you with evidence.

    There is no "evidence," because I'm not him.

    Also, I'm not the subject of OP's post, and I'm not the mod that banned OP.

  • even though there’s evidence to prove you’re ban evading?

    There is no evidence to prove that I'm ban evading. Because I'm not.

    Or wait…. Was Universal Monk banned from this instance? Someone should look into that.

    A quick search of his name shows that he's actually on this instance, so he's not banned from this instance anyway. So not only am I not ban evading because I'm not him; it wouldn't be ban evading even if I were him.

    Also, I'm not the subject of OP's post, and I'm not the mod who banned OP.

  • I'm not the subject of OP's post or the mod that banned him.

  • Incorrect. And I'm not the subject of OP's post or the mod that banned him.

  • incorrect. And I'm not the subject of OP's post or the mod that banned him.

  • I got banned for saying that DonaldJMusk is Universal Monk.

    Because I'm not Universal Monk.

    And I'm not the subject of OP's post or the mod that banned him.
