I've always wanted to talk about how weird it was scrolling through reddit and then suddenly seeing myself on the front page. I was banned from reddit for talking about politics (I am anti trump) on the air force reddit so I wasn't even able to comment on a post about me.
For some backstory, I was returning from a Halloween cruise and it was the only clean shirt I had left (I was planning on wearing it during the cruise as there were no children allowed on the cruise and with the theme I thought it would get a few laughs or at least start a conversation). I never did though and doing laundry on a cruise was quite expensive (I think 50 dollars per load or something like that). I tried to hide the shirt as best I could throughout the day as I do think it was slightly inappropriate to wear in a public setting.
For the record, I love all the comments roasting me and I laughed all fucking day reading them!
Anyways, I have always wanted to publicly talk about this and in my search for reddit alternatives I found lemmy so here we are. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

If you're sick of politics, make your own subscription list (on lemmy) or feed (on piefed) without politics. e.g.:
I mean yeah I could do that, but they keep me up to date with the current madness. Which i think is important, even if I hate it.
Good information though thanks, I might look into that for an alt.
Yeah it's good to take a break from the politics tho. Did I say good? I mean necessary.
For real. Some days i just set my phone down and not touch it just so I don't see anything.
