I was literally in the middle of thinking about community groups when I came across your post, I think a lot of people would use this feature.


i find this very satisfying: gently disagreeing with them via a short single positive message like “gay people do deserve respect”, then letting them throw a very lengthy, time-invested tantrum before gently and completely disagreeing with their comment with another short sentence, over and over until they get tired.

i find that both very funny and I’m putting out positive messages that negate their bigotry without too much time or effort.

that’s just if you have the time and inclination to engage, you aren’t morally obligated to subject yourself to abusive behavior.

if it’s real bad, they’re probably violating a rule, and reporting them will get them banned


hated that work culture so i left as soon as the opportunity presented itself.

went to teach ESL. half the hours for better pay


i travel constantly, and every time I’m flying in a plane i am re-amazed.

i think about how easy and quick it is to fly anywhere in the world and I’m sitting in a bit metal tube floating in the air.

it’s bananas.


I make my own DIY huaraches like this:

extremely comfortable, you can make it with any old slipper lying around and some paracord, lasts for 6 months to a year, depending on the quality of the sandal base.

adjust it to exactly your size that fits perfectly and then you can sew the knots so that all the dimensions stay the same.

takes me maybe 5 minutes to make each pair, and then 5 minutes for the sewing of the knots so I never have to readjust them, costs nearly nothing.


yes, because it is fun, and we don’t have to make it different just to be different.


Thank you, it was hide read posts.


Haha, OH MY GOSH thank you I’ve been trying to figure it out for…way too long.

thank you so much.


why can't I see a post I made?
solved, thank you! I hid read posts. Checked that option again, and there it was. I made a new account, community and post today at !bitofarambler@crazypeople.online and when I'm logged in I cannot see my post in the community, but when I am not logged in I can see my post. why is this happening? thank you.
