Groans and giggles are gifts of equal value. You get it

Pure altruism hasn’t been a meta strategy since we lived in groups of 100.

I mean, I wrote what I believed to be the most absurdly on-the-nose propaganda center dialogue. If suddenly and randomly shifting my manner of speech, omitting punctuation, and asking whether I should add that Elon musk is good at video games isn’t enough, then I’m stumped

Truthfully, though, I joke for me. If someone else gets a giggle out of it, I certainly enjoy it, but that matters far less than my own gratification here

Chance 3 to actually read my comment?

I’ll be frank, a decade of Reddit dulled me more than I thought.

I had never considered the time stamp. Thank you!

 

I feel like I’ve clicked everything looking for the ability. Clicked on the username, clicked on the little hamburger menu, checked every icon above and below the comment. What am I missing?

If I can only reach a direct link on the user’s home instance, that’s fine, but it feels as though I’m missing something.

And way less. It’s still a meth community. If I head to a mushroom community, I’ll see mushroom identification and cooking. If I stroll down to the clothing store, I’ll find clothes and accessories.

That Reddit is demanding the ability to advertise to meth addicts but only when they make their space more visually palatable, effectively gentrifying a corrosive community, is just peak capitalism.

There’s no risk, it’s just not funny or interesting. It’s just a box checked. A bigoted box
