30s. Gay. Star Trek lover.
I post using Boost for Lemmy! Also on Mastodon!
Note: Assume I did not make the meme. I just post 'em.

Well yeah they’re going to exist everywhere. But with Lemmy you have some accountability. On reddit you have none.
As for bans with no notifications, that’s not on the mods. That is on the developers of Lemmy and why so many people are frustrated with them. They’re ignoring admins, have no real timeline on feature development, and aren’t focusing on major issues that have been reported. The Lemmy Devs keep dragging their feet and if they’re not careful it could end up with someone making a lemmy competitor that still works with Lemmy. I know I’d go straight for it as a mod and as a user.
I use it fairly regularly for extremely basic things. Helps my ADHD. Most of it is DnD based. I’ll dump a bunch of stuff that happened in a session, ask it to ask me clarifying information, and then put it all in a note format. Works great. Or it did.
Or when DMing. If I’m trying to make a new monster I’ll ask it for help with ideas or something. I like collabing with ChatGPT on that front. Giving thoughts and it giving thoughts until we hash out something cool. Or even trying to come up with interesting combat encounters or a story twist. Never take what it gives me outright but work on it with GPT like I would with a person. Has always been amazingly useful.
Past month or two that’s been a complete dream. ChatGPT keeps forgetting what were talking about, keeps ignoring what I say, will ignore limitations and stipulations, and will just make up random shit whenever it feels like. I also HATE how it was given conversational personality. Before it was fine but now ChatGPT acts like a person and is all bubbly and stuff. I liked chatting with it but this energy is irritating.
Gimme ChatGPT from like August please <3
Bro if you comment in a subreddit the mods don’t like you’re instantly banned, even if ironic. Mods over there are on a power trip and the lack of a modlog means zero accountability.
I started using reddit in 2011. Was nuts to see the changes it underwent. A lot of them bad.
Since leaving reddit during that protest, been more than happy to call Lemmy home. Especially when I go back to browse reddit occasionally and see how incredibly toxic and negative it is all the time. I don’t know if I was blind to it before or if it got worse. Every comment thread is awful. They focus on the negative of everything and are just bitter and angry.
Place sucks ass.
Cool.
I’m not pretending like I respect anyone anymore who isnt voting for biden. Does it suck that this situation happened? Yep. But it happened from decades of Americans not giving a fuck. You don’t get to whine now when it matters more than anything else.
The fact that people look at Biden and go “Yeah but he sucks!” when you have an opponent literally saying he is attacking American democracy and wants to be a dictator on day one.
A wave of lava lapping at you’re feet and y’all are worried that the raft trying to save you is a lil old. Motherfucker it is your only option.
We’re talking about a cop. He’s not people to start with but especially with what he’s done.
He doesn’t deserve safety as he is part of the reason why so many people suffer in prisons and have their lives ruined. I will do nothing other than cheer as every ounce of his life is shredded in front of him until his life is as empty as he made Chauvins.
He killed a man in a horrific and truly awful way. He had PLENTY of time to feel regret for his actions while he was fucking doing them and everyone was screaming at him that he was killing someone. He is now suffering under the exact same system that has destroyed so many lives. Lives he had a hand in destroying previously due to being a cop.
He had plenty of chances. Fuck him. I hope he suffers everyday for the rest of his miserable life.
I refuse to give that disgusting piece of shit the same respect that I give to people. He didn’t do it for others? Fuck giving it to him.
“Completely fucked.”
Well I guess given your recent movie choices, you’d be an expert in that.
I’ve seen clips from the show but just never seen a full episode. I’m a big Greg Davies fan so i’ll watch anything with him in it.
Also unfamiliar with Mae but I’ll check them out
Julian Clary I’m familiar with. Didn’t know that about Taskmaster overall though. Gotta definitely check that out. Also yeah I forgot about that Simon moment too. Really no one gave a shit. QI is another great example. Both hosts have been gay and both hosts were never given shit for it.
It’s not wrong but my exhaustion comes from straight folks not recognizing us and allowing us to have representation, not so much us not having representation.
Probably makes sense why I loved so much British TV as a kid and still do today. Most of the comedy I watch/listen to is UK based. Mostly because I see way more LGBTQ+ people there and that they aren’t treated like the butt of a joke. Or that people don’t freak out. Like I was watching Would I Lie To You the other day and one of the lies was someone saying “I only took one guitar lesson because my teacher was too hot.” The first question from the opposing team was “Did you find her attractive?” And then, barely a beat later “Or, him attractive?” Instead of immediately feeling like he needed to prove his sexuality, the other dude just says “I’m recently married. They were a threat.”
It’s those tiny things. The big grand gestures are nice but don’t mean anything by themselves. Anyone can do something big. But letting the small things like that go through and just being a kind person like that all the time? That shit is seemingly inherent to a lot of UK comedy but non-existent in the US and Canada.
Good taste nonetheless lol
Oh there’s a show called Queer As Folk that has a UK and US version. Honestly I prefer the US one which is rare but it’s really good. Probably not age appropriate for your kiddo but you might enjoy it. It’s a drama about gay people, in the gay community, and the shit we have to deal with. Straight characters are essentially background characters. Apparently they are doing a reunion or something which I almost lost my shit over when I found out about. Gay teenaged me loved that show. Made me feel normal for the first time.
I’ve always seen Daria as a lesbian and no one can convince me otherwise.
I loved Will & Grace growing up. I rewatched it recently and it’s fucking dated with how many pop culture references there are but also they used a particular F word a LOT. Like… nearly every episode a lot. Personally I find it funny because that’s how I use it and how my gay friends use it amongst ourselves like those characters do but woah. Seeing that said on TV so casually by straight and gay characters was a whiplash moment.
Correct on all points. It’s so depressing man. Also I think it was Cheerios but I could be wrong. God forbid the cereal whose name partially means happy show a happy couple. Campbells Soup had the same backlash as well.
Look what happened with Dylan Mulaney and Bud Light. It wasn’t even a huge ad campaign. They were given a few cans of Bud Light and did a photo shoot with them and posted it online. That’s it. That’s all they did. And suddenly Kid Rock was shooting cans of Bud Light with his rifle. Fucking insanity.
It’s why I am so aggressively protective of my trans homies. The amount of violence that’s being suggested and hinted towards is fucking insane. It’s dangerous as hell and I’m afraid for them. Us gays have the benefit of being slightly socially accepted at least but there are very few famous trans people who are widely loved. No Neil Patrick Harris or Ellen (although fuck that woman). They’re an easy target at the moment and one that has seemingly fucking no one defending it. Just want to scream.
All but guaranteed. Cops found a dead man with drugs in his system. Why would they care? They probably got angry they were even called to deal with it.
That photo of the gravesite where he was buried is depressing. I know friends in places like that. I’m going to end up in a place like that. We didn’t, and don’t, have family. This man did. He didn’t deserve this…
