“fighting with righteous fury” my dude it was a vote. Don’t over sell it.

I mean, if you and I were arguing about whether or not you could fart, and you demonstrated you could fart, yeah.

The members of db0 who don’t want to see and hear Zionists indeed do have the power to change their instance and did, so I don’t get what you mean by saying they don’t have the power to change the world so it’s petty.

This man was specifically not gooning, gooning is about lasting as long as you can.

Nobody removed your choice to change servers
Further evidenced by the fact they’re posting from their non-db0 account after saying they voted on the topic with their db0 account.

Whether or not you agree with db0’s decision, framing it as a mere “petty war” is disingenuous.

It says LITRPG, not RPG. LITRPG is a story genre.

I can’t find any mention of the specific species of peafowl the man had. My personal guess is that it’s just a stock image of a peacock. None of the articles below mention the species, but one does have the same mugshot.

Quoting the AP article,
The 61-year-old man from Hudson, Florida, was arrested last week on a third-degree felony charge of aggravated animal cruelty, according to an affidavit from the Pasco County Sheriff’s Office.
The man told investigators that he had killed the two peacocks because his neighbor kept feeding them. He had written the neighbor a letter telling her that he would continue to kill his pet peacocks if she kept feeding them “to prove a point,” according to the affidavit, which didn’t say how many peacocks he kept.
The man “admitted to killing the bird by cutting the bird’s neck out of spite, then bleeding it out, and then later eating the bird after cooking it on a frying pan,” the affidavit said.
So it doesn’t seem so simple as him merely getting arrested for deciding to eat one of his peafowl.
Killing an endangered animal and cruelty to animals are separate statutes. So I think it’s safe to safe it’s not an endangered peafowl.

- www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=D… “level four violations” are also third degree felonies.
I don’t care enough to pull the man’s actual court records and see if he was also charged with Intentional killing or wounding of any species designated as endangered, threatened, or of special concern.

We should get ahead of the curve by making Markcoin then. Let’s do halfsies on an ICO.

Yeah, in the book of Revelation in the Bible as a sign of the end times followers of Satan will have a visible mark on them. Many evangelical Christian conspiracy theorists believe that in a literal sense. Paired with many conservatives also not wanting the government to be able to track them, a national ID system (as opposed to state IDs) has never really gain traction.

The same group that pushes for voter ID laws refuses to implement a national ID system because they’re afraid of the mark of the beast.

Well obviously the propaganda I grew up with is better and clearly didn’t affect me at all…
- Comment on Parents opt kids out of school computers, insisting on pen-and-paper instead 5 days ago:
There’s a big difference between “hey kids, use this machine, it has Internet access and Brand products” and “hey kids, ask me anything you’d like, and I’ll give you the Brand approved answer.”

They’re putting AI in children’s school laptops? Not only teaching them to think less, but letting a corporation directly influence them?
- Comment on Acciracy 5 days ago:
Might be meant to explain that folks say “American” to mean people from the United States more often than the American continents. Especially since it’s for teaching people a different language.

You may be tempted to think that the syrup thing is because of the bud, but actually she took up bud to stop getting so many questions about it.

- Comment on Discord Alternatives, Ranked 1 week ago:
I’ve said this a lot in different places and the Lenny community is so small folks might even recognize me repeating myself, but I’ll say it again here. The problem with recommending a good Discord alternative is that Discord is different things for different people. For some it’s streaming. For some it’s video calls. For some it’s voice calls. For some it’s DMs. For some it’s group servers. For some the image and video sharing is an important aspect. It’s hard to recommend a good alternative because you’ll always inevitably run into the problem of someone saying “but it doesn’t do the thing I use it for.” The reality is that folks might need to use multiple apps to meet their needs if they migrate.
If you’d skimmed the article you would’ve seen thY they suggested Discourse which the author openly admits is a forum, not a chat app. But hey, that’s what some folks use Discord as.

Unless I’m carrying something, holding a door open for me usually just messes up my rhythm and makes me more uncomfortable from the sudden need to acknowledge a favor rather than just spacing out and walking.

So go ahead, be a single grumpy bitch, because some men try to hit on you.
I dream that a woman would hit on me.
Probably could improve your chances by not using sexist language like bitch.
- Comment on Let's take a moment to remember the time period when everyone had to adjust to using dual-joysticks on controllers. 1 week ago:
A lot of games now still have motion control aiming, you just tilt the controller. Sometimes it’s off by default though. I typically use the stick for big movements and tilt aiming for zeroing in.
