My namesake is a human librarian that was turned into an orangutan. All he says is “Ook” and can traverse the library stacks with great ease. He is happy.
I have a pretty strange knowledge set. I’m not super friendly, but I like to get high and link people to stuff. Just pretend I said only “ook”
Ok, so maybe complaining will bump it. This honestly should be a thriving place.
I for one, read the welcome message and thought “this isn’t what is thought it was”. I was hoping for a drop in of bestOfReddit. But of course, that is the wrong attitude. Lemmy is its own thing. I don’t want to treat it as bestofreddit for lemmy unless that was the mods’ intent.
hi. sorry the first thing i bring up is a criticism.
I don’t see why the bestoflemmy on lemmy.world should focus on lemmy features. It seems like it should just the best stuff, like content stuff, on lemmy.world, curated for sure, but not focused. it seems a name like lemmyTricks or myfavoritelemmyfeature would encompass that mission. This is kinda sitting on a general name, and I wonder if that’s why there are not more submissions.
Once more people get onboard, the price is sure to fall.
Never thought about it. In hindsight “not part of a maga agenda” makes for much better lyrics.
I don’t see how dead naming is cool simply because it will hurt her polling with racists.
Edit: Ok, explain the joke. Why is the birtherism of saying “Barrack HUSSEIN Obama” funny on our side? Why should we respect Caitlin Jenner’s chosen name but not Nikki’s? If it’s not a joke, that is, you think it’s a genuinely good idea for news outlets to refer to her this way, why?
So from personal experience, I learned Obama’s middle name from the mouths’ of racists, I learned Biden’s middle name from the mouths’ toxic masculine chauvinists, and I only hear Jenner’s deadname from bigots. I don’t like playing the “true name” game.
Edit 2: Ok downvoters, you’ve convinced me that it is ok to stress politicians’ birth names in order to show disagreement. Can you now please provide a list of white politicians whose birth names we should use in order to show we do not support them? I guess we can just put their names in parentheses or something if that is easier.
This is just more propaganda from the People’s Front of Judea.
