Stopping all fediverse activities. Good bye. Absolutely stupid indisriminate bans by mods on various instances make it clear to me lemmy and fediverse does not want content.
if I ever get back to fediverse It would be on my own instance as its clear to me nothing short of that is going to work.

OP respects pronouns, we've come a long way from 2008

[–] disorderly@lemmy.world 57 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Eh, it's always been a mixed bag over there. Like spaghetti but also rat poison.

[–] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

True. Avoiding /b/ and /pol/ helped.

We’ve regressed

There's usually at least one person every Trans Day of Rememberance murdered by a parent. I've attended a ceremony or read the names every year for over a decade. So yeah, fake and gay, but unfortunately it does hit to something real.

The best lies mange to somehow saddle a kernel of truth

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

Anyways

Fake: anon has a friend

Gay: anon was hurt by an anti queer attack

There's vomit on his sweater already.

Hospital ready.

Big guy down, rat poison in mom’s spaghetti

didn't end with anon pressing charges that allow for civil charges to pay for more warhammer/lost spaghetti damages. in conclusion the post is :rubber_stamp: [Fake and Gay]

You don't actually need to "press" a criminal charge to file a civil lawsuit for the parallel tort. If you've got the evidence, you've got the evidence.

[–] state_electrician@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Tort is such a silly word for a legal term.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (2 children)

As if the rest of them aren't?

Law is a profession where people dress up in funny clothes (even powdered wigs, in some places!) and say pseudo-Latin at each other. The words aren't magical incantations, but they're close enough that sovcits think they are.

It is profoundly silly.

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Uh, pretty sure it's not pseudo-Latin, it's just Latin. A lot of those terms date back to legal proceedings in ancient Rome.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah, but calling it pseudo- is funnier.

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

Only if you pronounce it "sway-doe", rhymes with Play-Doh

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Pronounce the p

[–] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Pretty sure we butcher the pronunciation, though. The Latin 'Caesar' was pronounced more like the German word 'Kaiser' than the modern 'Caesar salad,' for example.

I'm pretty sure attempted poisoning is one of those where the state presses charges on your behalf no matter what.

thanks Matt Lock.

Mom tried to set them up to take a murder rap.
