  • As someone with DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder) please pick a different name/acronym

  • This whole software seems like it adds nothing to the fediverse. I abstain, and wish to defederate and avoid software like this in the future.

  • I found a couple of snails on my broccoli last night and threw them over the fence

  • Oh yeah and my squashes haven't fruited at all yet, lazy bastards

  • I got it as a start at the beginning of the month. I also don't have any yard so can't plant it in-ground. Thanks for the advice though

  • Mod at Palestine@lemmy.ml removes comment, probably based on a political bias.

  • The difference between Israeli violence against Palestinians and Palestinian violence against Israelis is that Israel colonized Palestine.

    I'm tired of liberals both-sidesing this bullshit, not only on the internet as a whole but on fucking !Palestine@lemmy.ml? YDI.

  • Simping for the government is passivity. It's complacency. Hey, watch this: I want to assassinate the leader of AfD! With a bullet! To the temple!

    I steal shit, I have sex in public, I advocate for violence and I'll do it proudly. If you're not willing to go to prison for what you believe in, then you don't really believe it now do you?

  • The best advice I have is to practice writing proper prose in a stream of consciousness style. Try to not edit other than with the delete button on what you just wrote. At least, that's how I got to my kind of eloquence.

    You know how people advise you to read you writing aloud to hear how it sounds? Phrasing, readability, etc. I think the skill I have that helps the most is being able to write cogent and speakable language from a stream of consciousness. Try typing exactly how you speak, errors, accents and local expressions all included. It's a skill, yeah. Turning your vocalized speech into internal speech into written language; you get to the point where you can produce written language that sounds like someone speaking naturally.

    As for flow and getting a point across? Studying prose helps. Simple things like "shorter sentences make a punchier phrase" or whatever help. Having a written style helps also. I'm not exactly sure if any of this helps, but thank you for complimenting my eloquence. I've never felt particularly eloquent - but I do speak my mind and only my mind. Popular opinion and groupthink are for unoriginal people. Sure, you can hold a popular opinion, but you've also got to have a reason for it that you can express.

  • Are you being sarcastic or genuine?

  • I'm an anti-electorialist but I still vote.

    National races and US congress votes are like pissing into the ocean, it doesn't do shit. I vote in local elections to keep assholes from running my city. Do I think it changes anything? Probably not, but I just sort of vote in local elections for my disenfranchised comrades who can't

  • I think saying "yo this is actually good but the author is a pedo" is basically the same as admiring Mein Kampf while arguing the death of the author is important

    Basically what I mean is Made in Abyss IS BAD and I don't like people heaping praise on it. The author is a pedophile. The story, characters, and plenty of scenes in it are softcore (or maybe not even softcore, I haven't read it for obvious reasons) child porn. Sadistic child porn too. I can poke a million holes in Made in Abyss, but what's the point?

  • UPDATE: No more Aphids! I've attracted an eight-legged friend it seems

  • I have a bunch of native wildflower seed packets I got from my local master gardeners, but nothing to start them in and nothing to grow them in cause I ain't got no dirt!!

  • I think it's worth it to put in a P.S.S. there now that Des nut basically said "sorry I got caught"

    Like seriously this dude is a massive piece of shit, not because he's a Marxist-Leninist or a tankie or whatever; he's a transphobe. I hold him in the same regard as I hold Elon Musk at this point because the only real difference is I'm pretty sure Des nut doesn't have a trans daughter.
