ech,

I’m not going to assume your position here, but this really comes off as some “all lives matter” style counter protesting.

ech,

You get how unhelpful this is, right? Like, do you go to abortion rights protests and preach the same bs? Or gay rights marches? You’re not helping anyone with this “actually, everyone deserves these rights” garbage. “Everyone” doesn’t face the same problems, so just let people advocate for their rights as they see fit instead of trying to kneecap them for the sake of “equality”.

I definitely see that angle, hence the not assuming, but "um actually"ing a social progress motto isn’t a great look, especially with the existence of “*all lives matter” hanging around.

Also, the whole motto is “Trans Rights are human rights”, so that’s quite literally already laid out.

ech,

Like I started my first comment with, I’m not assuming that’s what they meant with their “correction”. I’m just pointing out the poor optics with a comment like that. And as I said to the other user, the whole slogan is “Trans rights are human rights”. There’s no need to “correct” it - it’s already there.

ech,

“Lemmy” isn’t, afaik. Certain instances seem to have profanity filters. Probably not a great word to use in general, though.

ech,

Being offensive and trying to be offensive are not mutually inclusive. And I wasn’t intending that as a personal rebuke or anything. Just commenting that, in the context of profanity censors, that is a word usually better left unsaid anyhow. Sorry if it came off as a comment on you specifically.

ech,

I don’t know what the impetus is, but some people seem compelled to put face filters on pretty much everything. I saw a post a while back with a historical photo that had been processed for some reason. It’s absurd.

Lemmy, is there a treasured piece of content that you stop yourself from going back to "too often" so as to not dilute it?

I do this for a few things, movies in particular. For me most recently, I’m planning on watching Bo Burnham’s Inside this weekend, for the first time since I watched it shortly post-release. I wasn’t really intending to wait checks watch nearly 3 years on that one, but I definitely felt it needed some space before a...

ech,

Oh neat. I’ll look into that. Thanks!

ech,

Humans feel pain, but we don’t feel the oxidation happening in us constantly. I’d say it’s more about what you’re built for rather than strictly a concept of pain.

ech,

Do hobbit holes get the gigabit hookup?

ech,

Nah.

ech,

Thankfully, you don’t get to decide what other people consider “significant”. I’ll spend my time how I want, thanks.

ech,

Because someone went out of their way to mutilate a video for no reason, so I’m gonna go out of my way to make it right. Just because you can’t be bothered to care doesn’t mean everyone else is just like you.

ech,

WHY do people think everything needs to be cropped to hell just to fit on their phone. The screen rotates. Just twist it around ya lazy bastards.

Anyhow, here’s a link to the full size video that isn’t pointlessly cut down by 75%: www.youtube.com/watch?v=QThaHpkFVzw

ech,

Lol, no. You don’t get to debate me into not valuing something. Deal with it.

More like Se7en, ie it makes no fucking sense.

ech,

I get it’s referencing the back rooms, but I don’t get why. No location I’ve ever been to looked anything like that.

Anyway to turn off or control the comment highlighting in 0.19?

The instance I’m on just did the update and this comment highlighting is really throwing me off. It’s super glaring and unpleasant imo and I’d really appreciate the ability to turn it off. I’ve looked around a bit but haven’t found anything myself. Am I missing something?

ech,

Ah, that makes some sense. Would still like more control over if it appears at all, but I’m glad to know it’s at least not intentionally that glaring.

As far as I can tell it’s comments made within the last 510(?) minutes or so.
