I hate that I always compare Lemmy to Reddit, but Reddit used to have (not sure if they still do) guidelines called “Reddiquette” that included guidelines about upvoting and downvoting. I don’t remember the specifics (and sending too much of my browser traffic to Reddit makes me feel dirty) but one of the guidelines was...
Interesting content gets updoot. Spam, misinformation, and conservative politics get the downdoot.
For comments:
Relevant to the discussion (be it top-level or deep in a thread), funny, and factual statements get updoots. Irrelevant comments, false information, poor argumentative skills, and conservative political get the downdoot.
Those conversations happen so rarely that it’s not worth even considering that as a possibility until a reply or two has shown that they’re not going to stonewall the conversation.
In person things are one way, but on the anonymous Internet (especially lemmy and reddit) it’s people who are 100% not going to adjust their actively garbage views on things and thus deserve to be treated as the dickheads they too often are
If they don’t like being pre judged based on their political beliefs they should rethink why people have an inherant dislike of them, and maybe change. Or learn to deal with the consequences of having dogshit opinions
So you can buy the spores online and have them legally shipped to your door basically anywhere in the US from a site sharing it’s name with the garden humans first lived in before Eve ate the apple
Once you’ve got those they grow in a shotgun fruiting chamber, a type of fungus growing that is used for many kinds of mushrooms and is completely normal to talk about.
You take some vermiculite, brown rice flour, and some jars, sterilize the dirt (boil it), put it in jars, and squirt some spores into the jars
Leave them in a drawer to become a full cake, then into the fruiting chamber. Spritz with water 3x daily and in a month you’ve got more mushrooms than you can cook with
My first harvest was a little over an oz of dried goodness for an investment initially of about $150, and I can do it again at least 2 more times with current supplies
Bending the knee absolutely should stick around, there are many people (my wife included) who WANT that sort of gesture
You should 100% have an idea of what they’ll say before you do it though. I knew my wife was going to say yes, it was merely picking the correct time and place (which I did, and as far as I know, am the only one to do so)
Anyone who springs it on their partner without at least some attempts at subtly discussing marriage is an idiot who deserves if it blows up in their face
What are your criteria for upvoting/downvoting?
