Or that’s what misogynists think.

More like, the internet will have you believe that women who plays video games either is:
A porn model that just uses video games as a guise.
Or
A male hiding under a female guise who plays video games.


Information is about as rapid as money exchanges. There’s so much going around because News is 24/7 and there’s so many outlets that it will burn out anyone’s minds trying to follow it all. It was like with the Hong Kong protests, it got traction for a while, then something else happened and it was dropped within weeks.
And we have all of these wikis in existence where the legitimacy of the articles written, are constantly challenged through the edits of those that believe differently in how it should be written to the reliable sources conflicting with those beliefs.
And we have generations of people who do not remember the time of certain events as they’ve happened where previous generations did. So it can be harder for someone who wasn’t born around the time of Pearl Harbor and WWII to relate and take in information as opposed to the one who actually lived it.
Then we take into account of instances of history being re-written by revisionists, some sections of history is white-washed, censored, redacted .etc
Top it all off with how incredulous and sensationalist projections the media reports that just shits all over it.
And we have ourselves one big, informational train-wreck where almost nobody knows what to believe. So what most people do anymore is if a news report aligns with their beliefs, they’re going to take it at face value.
I have joined MBin because I still miss KBin.


Not stated in the body of the post which you could’ve clearly have done.


That’s fine. That’ll just mean I’m a airborne disease since my invisibility would be infinite.


Gaia Online.
It’s been around since 2003 and it still clings on to its early roots of the internet but with awful modern internet decisions.


Baseball. Try to have a MVP and decorated career, retire, still be involved with the game as a manager, retire from managing, slip into ambassador roles.


A lot of horror movie franchises would get retcon or some installments would outright be axed.
Friday the 13th would not need to go on for 10 movies. Get rid of Parts 9, 3, 5, X and 8. This is now going to be a compressed, coherent movie series of 5 movies where we attempt to establish a better comprehensible story involving Jason. Kane Hodder is the staple actor of Jason.
Nightmare on Elm Street, going to cut out Parts 6, 5, 2, and 4. Compress and re-write the story while retaining elements of selected pieces to build off from. The remake will not have ever happened. Freddy vs Jason would still happen but it would be involving the original creators of both Nightmare on Elm St and Friday the 13th and Kane Hodder will star as Jason. No cop out ending like the original version got, but the victor would not only be decided by final battle but also body count.
Halloween, take out 3, 4, H20, 2, 5, Resurrection and all of the Rob Zombie directed ones. Retcon.
Scream, that movie series feels more like a trilogy movie so that’s what it is going to be instead of all of these unnecessary installments.
Final Destination, same thing.
Saw, same thing as I felt the series ended beautifully with three movies but went entirely off the rails in later installments.
Puppet Master, I would honestly keep to 5, get rid of all of the ones where they focused too much on the Nazi stuff and the clash they had with Demonic Toys.
Leprechaun, just get rid of the ones where he entangles with the Hood and obviously the space one and max the series out at 2 films.
Hellraiser, keep it to two movies.


Obviously it is concerning. We have just been given a window of a glimpse as to what would happen if one service in which so many things rely on, gets messed up. Like today I was having trouble logging into my bank because guess what, they rely on CloudFlare.
I’ve read individuals relying on services provided by CloudFlare, their processes were interrupted.
I know that CloudFlare has a purpose and its purpose is being served, but there’s a reason why people love and should embrace the idea of multiple alternatives and hate monopolies.
It would be like, if Comcast as an ISP has a blackout, do you know how many subscribers they have? Some people in certain areas are all that they have so the blackout would knock them offline for however long. That’s why alternatives are important.


College only seems that way for those with indecisive minds that have no clear planning of their future.


TikTok has quickly earned a negative reputation to the things you’ve already listed off as having manufactured narratives. That platform alone has bred generations of people now who possess attention spans like a fly and believe nearly anything that’s on it like gospel.
The sooner you’re off it, the better.


Know your worth. Sounds like you did that, good.


That’s what I do with my job. PPTO, PTO and even a points-system exist primarily for when you want or need time off. I use it all the time. Sure, it’d be nice and awesome to save up the PTO and get that nice juicy bonus after a year (applicable with where I work). However, sometimes, the job itself doesn’t encourage you to be at your best at all times, it can be a grind and vice versa.
Fuck anyone who frowns on those that prioritize work/life balances. Because it’s clear as day, what working hard and selfless for the sake of the company does for you when you get fucked over anyways.


I think ranking algorithms are a disease of social media. I prefer none of them because all they do is just yank you around.


Dude, I’ve found car drivers far more aggravating than bicyclists. The most a bicyclist has ever annoyed me is when they don’t make their presence known enough. I just happen to sometimes, find them near seconds of almost hitting them and I hate that. When I rode bikes, I tried having devices or things that make my bike have features a car would, even turn signaling.
But drivers? The level of entitlement and selfishness of a driver is off the charts.


I prefer to be minimally informed than wildly misinformed.
There is way too much and always has been, this tug of war of which angle is the most righteous than that angle. Until I see some honest and serious action towards a better tomorrow that’ll benefit all (scratch that, how about the majority of those that just want live with as little conflict as possible), I can’t care too much about waving flags, playing labels, shouting buzzwords and brainwashing myself to think a certain way to appease some demographic.
It is incredibly taxing and exhausting.


Little of both. If the sink is full of dishes, they’re going in the dishwasher. If there’s a handful, probably by hand.
I am not sure what you mean.
I am taking a wild assumption of a guess by saying you probably mean where in the parts of lemmy where you can say what you want without criticism?
If so, good luck with that. There’s always going to be people who’ll take offense to what you say, have downvoting parades, bring up post histories and other shit. There is no single social media platform that can handle spicy unpopular opinions, even, without many people taking offense to it.
