Community Rules

You must post before you leave

Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.

Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.

Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".

Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.

Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.

Avoid AI generated content.

Avoid misinformation.

Avoid incomprehensible posts.

No threats or personal attacks.

Moderator Guidelines

Moderator Guidelines

  • Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
  • Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
  • When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
  • Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
  • Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
  • Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
  • Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
  • Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
  • Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
  • Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
  • Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
  • Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
  • First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
  • Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
  • No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
  • Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
  • Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

Eh, it's a summer fit. For winter I much prefer big knit dresses and those fakeout thermal thights:

The second one would be an absolute challenge for Asmongold.

I'm not sure why exactly, but knowing him I'm not sure I want to know.

There's a video of him trying to eat fruit, only to spit it instantly out and constantly gagging.

excluding his moral quality, he seems like a gross human being

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Unfortunately relatable ... though I'm fine with orange.

[–] gray5911@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 6 days ago (2 children)

i mean, i am not gay but 1k$ would help me a lot (does the price doubles as i wear it for one more week?)

[–] ignotum@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

123 trillion usd in the world, assuming the 1k doubles every week (1, 2, 4, 8 etc) you'd only need to wear it for 37 weeks or ~0.7 years before you'd be richer than the rest of... earth

Would you do it?

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

I'd like it and i am not straight

[–] oopsgodisdeadmybad@lemmy.zip 6 points 6 days ago

Aww mannn, I would have to wear panties and bra with that.

1k is still 1k though.

[–] EntirelyUnlovable@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

I think I would yeah

[–] jj4211@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

Nah, I can't afford to spare $1k to rent that for a week to wear.

[–] Fredthefishlord@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Unfortunately work does not allow skirts due to safety hazards so I would have to pass unless that 1k comes with health insurance... (Thanks usa)

[–] PrettyFlyForAFatGuy@feddit.uk 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Already used it all earlier in the year. Union treats me right.

[–] laserm@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

$1000 is $1000

[–] ConstantPain@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

The message below sounds a lot like when the government privatizes one of their services.

[–] yetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.de 83 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I read this as 1 kilodollar.

that's entirely correct tbh

Is that not what the k represents when people use it as a short-hand for "thousand"?

[–] fushuan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

It's not shorthand for thousand, it IS thousand.

kk=M -> 10^3*10^3=10^6  
kM=G -> 10^3*10^6=10^9  
kkk=G= "a billion" 

MATH IS WITH ME, BILLIONAIRES ARE MEMBERS OF THE kkk!!!!!

That's what I love about unit prefixes. They're just numbers!

Like, how many m³ is 1 km³?

1 km³ = 1 (km)³ = 1 k³m³ = 1 G(m³) = 1,000,000,000 m³.

[–] MisterFrog@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

It's just that usually the $ unit comes before the number.

Which I accept, but don't like for the inconsistency with how we write units after the number.

Reminds me of a Fear Factor event my Mormon church group had in which one “disgusting” feat for boys was to shave part of their legs. That particular feat was cancelled when some boys who didn't subscribe to traditional “manly” values happily started shaving their legs for points. Unlike swallowing goldfishes, eating grasshoppers, or attempting to drink a gallon of milk, leg shaving was a step too far for church leaders.

[–] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Fear factor event for Mormon priests is just watching guys choose to shave leg hair over eating live insects raw.

[–] baltakatei@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 days ago

The insects were dried protein snacks from a Boy Scout's wilderness guide training; they were like salted sunflower seeds with the shell still on. It was the Wal-Mart goldfishes that were alive and swallowed Attack-on-Titan-style.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 32 points 1 week ago

was your bishop unfamiliar with swimmers and bicycling?

scratch that, they were balls deep in an mlm i forget

[–] Badabinski@kbin.earth 13 points 1 week ago

I've lived in Utah for like 30 years and I can picture this so clearly in my head.

[–] LuckingFurker@lemmy.blahaj.zone 71 points 1 week ago

Absolutely. I'd pay anything to wear that for a week

i'm in year 8 of transition i basically did pay $1k to wear that

[–] Sir_Premiumhengst@lemmy.world 42 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Getting so much coding done...

Improve the coding skill by 15 points!

[–] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 39 points 1 week ago (1 children)

basically dystopian

[–] kittenzrulz123@lemmy.blahaj.zone 27 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Do I get to keep the outfit :3

[–] homura1650@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Serious question: does anyone know where I can get that dress? I don't need the money; just the dress.

Insist on peeling the orange myself, fail, cry.

[–] Nyadia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I uh, might have seen this post back during the pandemic and bought this fit with my stimulus money (it doesn't look as cute as the picture makes it out to be cause the skirt of the dress doesn't flare out like that and looks rather boxy, however the top is separate from the dress and you can wear it as a crop top and pair it with another dress/skirt and it looks better that way imo)

Even though I would only be at work 3 of those days, I would still say the answer is no. $1k is not enough for me to dress that way for a whole week. Maybe $10k.

There is a ton of stuff I would do for $1k. You want two days of my engineering and CAD skills? You want me to go to the hospital to tell people they're loved ones have died? You want me to wipe down the loads in the steam room (in a tyvek suit and gloves)? Those are all things I could do for $1K. But I'm not wearing that.

[–] piccolo@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 week ago (2 children)

$1k/w is what i earn doing my job... your telling me i can take a week off and hide in my room and all i have to get my fat ass in some clothing with no obligations to leave my house? Where do i sign up?
