Holler back to 2010s reddit therapy fads and grey rock them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_rock_method

That girls wearing shirts that showed any sort of curvature were leading boys to hell. RIP girls with anything larger than a B cup. And then there was a transfer student I became friends with. Didn’t have the words for them at the time but probably non-binary. They used a chest binder and got in trouble for that. Damned for having boobs, damned for trying to minimize them; damned for just existing.

Wut?

I’m for the people who will be posting dank memes shitting on the US government.

No, and doubly so on the second. SEO = search engine optimization. Big corps pay people to manipulate themselves into the top hits of searches; I don’t see Lemmy ever doing that. The top hits will be from companies that scrape the Fediverse for content then poop AI-generated slop into “top hit” positions they paid Google for.

I use an app that doesn't show profile pictures by default. I apply a user tag to anyone I want to recognize.

I plan on telling her parents and surprising her by having them sign her up for the trip. If she wants to go to Germany, she can talk to her own parents. I can’t imagine any good reason for you to get involved and talk to her parents without her knowing. Maybe I’m missing some context, but seems like a lot of not-your-business.

Anyone I’ve ever heard talking about the non-aggression principle spat red flags faster than a machine gun. At best, they’re truly so dense and unsympathetic they don’t recognize actions that aren’t directly or intentionally causing harm do still cause harm (example, the free state project people leaving food out for black bears “because they can” without thought for their neighbors who then have to deal with more bears). At worst, it’s rape apologia (crap like statutory rape doesn’t exist because that minor “totally asked for it” and the rape didn’t cause physical damage).

What a fun read, ty. I went to the Talk page hoping for some back and forth about ensuring the description of the project was unbiased. Nope, nada, surpised there aren’t any free state project fans within the ranks of Wikipedia editing volunteers who would have something to say.
