Phoenician pro-tip: if you use a letter for each individual sound instead of one for every word, it makes for a more efficient writing system. Also DO NOT fuck with the Romans or random weirdo desert tribes they will murder you without mercy.

oh god that's terrifying

Fun fact, the term "7 seas" has never referred to any specific list of seas and is older than knowledge of the Pacific/Indian oceans by western cultures

why the fuck are you voting for someone who made his own private militarized police force to protect his interests like a stereotypical cold war era dictator

ok to but to be fair, the creator of Lemmy is a tankie. not "anyone I don't like is a tankie" tankie, but "genuinely supports the Soviet Union and CCP" tankie.

why isn't the void there

I think they are referring to Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait, etc. the past few wars the U.S. has been in have largely been fought over oil.

Florida has a a fucking military police corp and can legally take your kids if they admit to having gender dysphoria. Several states already have or are attempting to pass "bounty hunting" laws that encourage you to report trans people or people who have had an abortion or fucking MISCARRIAGE, even in other states, and will arrest them under penalty of death if they try to return. Politicians are openly calling for their enemies to be executed by firing squad. Depending on the 2024 election I probably wont live to see the next one. Shit's turning into Saudi Arabia over here.

even funnier is the other cat screaming in the background in response

what in gods name is happening over there, between this and removing awards they've been acting really weird since the protest

cyan, yellow, magenta, the ELITE! All of which are American dreams! All of which are American dreams!

 
 
 

One of the main issues I have with the Fediverse is that I can't view any of the posts on Fedi. sites in my RSS feed. is there any way to fix this, and if not I would really like to see that feature added somehow.

 

Around 2017-2018, there used to be a huge circlejerk online about how Fortnite was the dumbest thing ever, to the point where "Fortnite bad, Minecraft good" was part of the infamous Keanu Chungus 100 meme. Why did it get so much hate, and why did it stop?

Before I joined the Fediverse, it felt like the Internet was composed of only 4-5 social media sites and a bunch of corporate news articles, with only a couple of old remnant sites that looked out of place like a historic church in a business district. All of a sudden, though, it feels like people are creating lots of new sites. I've been exploring the other Fediverse sites since then, and playing around with Marginalia.nu/hearing about them from other people, and it seems like the "real" web that we were told about in the 2000s is thriving again, albeit in the shadow of the big sites where 90% of people will never see it.

 

If you didn't know, on DuckDuckGo you can search for posts or magazines with site:kbin.social just like you would with Reddit. The same applies to any other Fediverse site like Kbin, Lemmy, Mastodon, etc.. I was really frustrated because it seems like Google was intentionally suppressing them.
