Like users that are known for a gimmick or that everyone sees alot?
Flyingsquid, pugjesus, maven, the_picard_maneuver, fossilesque, satansmaggotycumfart, and jeffw just to name a few.
Jeffw is locally famous. Posting content and commenting. (Sorry, can’t figure out how to grab the user name link on this app)
Maybe its just me, but I see @[email protected] moon a lot. They post sovereign citizen stuff, which is what i see regularly, but they are also a pretty good poet.
I am actually not a poet, I just find good poetry. Thanks!
The poetry is fantastic! Thank you for posting it.
Special shoutout to @[email protected] who’s on point with the opossum memes.
@[email protected] is quite famous in the Lemmy Startrek Lore, but less active lately probably due to big real-life changes happening, I wish them well.
I dislike stamets because they responded to me in a toxic, rude, abrasive and above others attitude when I disagreed with them on their stance that spirituality and religon (which are seperate things) should be banned in the future entirely, it was related to start trek discussion
I disagree with that because I beleive people should have freedom to practice their religous beleifs or spiritual beleifs as long as they are not harming others
The harming of others should definitely be dealt with if someone does decide to harm others based on their beleifs but many people practice spiritual or religous beleifs without harming others
I asked my mom and she didn’t really understand what Lemmy is but she assured me that I am the coolest person on here.
An autographed headshot will run you $20
The_Picard_Maneuver is the real MVP of Lemmy, a source of so much joy.
Well, not to brag, but today i sneezed so loud that a neighbour 2 houes down and across yelled “bless”. So, yeah, kind of famous.
That would be 2√2 or √8 houses.
What am I missing here?
2 units (in this case houses) down and 2 across (a perhaps intentional misinterpretation of the original slightly ambiguous statement). Reasonable to assume down and across are perpendicular directions. Let’s pretend space-time is Euclidean. How far away is the listener from the sneeze? Pythagoras, our faithful companion, guides our understanding…√(2²+2²)=√8=2√2
this is a european old city, so definitely a non-euclidian space.
Flying squid
but not in a good way.
Until this thread, I didnt realize so many Lemmy users had an issue with Flying Squid. Perhaps its because I tend to agree with a lot of his takes, but I just find him abrasive at worst. Like…unafraid to not sugarcoat an uncomfortable truth.
Dudes definitely everywhere though.
FlyingSquid believes that your internet browsing history should be made public if you are running for any political position. Worst take of all time.
Rumors of my only having good opinions about everything that everyone should agree with have been greatly exaggerated.
But if I have offended you by being wrong about something, I apologize.
Not offended, more just dumbfounded that someone could honestly not see how that is obviously a terrible idea.
They also beleive you shouldn’t have a right to privacy and that your trauma does not exist
Holy cannoli squid, don’t do that to your kid.
I’ve never seen them be out of pocket, just everywhere.
Fuck that guy.
Seems like he’s gotten a little better lately.
Its going to sound silly, but I can’t get past how confident he is and how quickly he posts. Noone makes good arguments with that little thought. At least thats my current theory on why he bothers me.
Who knows though maybe I’m projecting.
I also get annoyed at lightning fast responses. And I agree 100%
It takes no time or energy to come up with one answer to a question. I’m fact, I think most humans’ brains are built for snap decisions like that.
But to weigh multiple answers against each other, poking holes in the answers you are most inclined to believe? That takes thought. And if someone is not doing that for you, then odds are, their brain is simply letting them take the discussion less seriously than your brain (or your morality) allows.
So I think you have every right to feel frustrated at such behavior.
Pretty sure me and another Lemmy were the first two men to meet here then fuck. Highly recommend.
I congratulate you, lemming. Here’s your medal:
FlyingSquid(I don’t know on which instance he is, but you see him quite often).
Careful interacting with FlyingSquid. I refused to be drawn into an argument with them and was banned from World News which they moderate.
I’ve had good and bad interactions with them, so I just think “hey they are flawed (hopefully) human beings that have good days and bad days”. Chances are if I treat them (or anyone) kindly, the interaction will be positive.
My goal online is to try and be a wholesome user, although that doesn’t always happen. I usually delete my comments when I don’t like how I acted with someone else as I want to remind myself to take a kinder approach to Lemmy. There’s enough toxicity online.
I think “would Mr. Rodgers approve?”
You were banned from World News because of transphobic bigotry, as you know.
No. You asked a deliberatly transphobic question, to define a REAL women (implying some women are not real). Then banned me because I refused to fall for your trick.
It is impossible to objectively mod your own arguments. You are Judge Judy and executioner.
This would be a lot more believable if you didn’t make a post earlier today suggesting Biden is a pedophile and didn’t have a bunch of deleted antivaxxer posts in the modlogs (and one suggesting the live broadcast of the moon landing was fake).
Whoops.
I thought the charge was being transphobic?
All the other examples listed are highlight faulty logic, not expressing an opinion.
Saying A does not imply B.
In our particular case, saying a governing body should clarifying it’s classification rules to avoid future incidents does not imply hate towards any particular person or group of people.
Sorry, not going to argue with you about this right-wing shit again. Go find someone else to be bigoted around.
You are being overly antagonistic and seem unreasonably attached to labeling me as right wing.
You post too often and inaccurately for conversations like this not to occur again. I’ve already corrected your posts twice today and further interactions could be mistaken for a grudge.
I don’t like blocking people because I’m here to hear a variety of opinions, but it’s probably better for everyone if I do so.
As a parting thought, I’ll leave you with the definition of a bigot and let you reflect.
A person who is obstinately or unreasonably attached to a belief, opinion, or faction, especially one who is prejudiced against or antagonistic towards a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular group.
I see a lot of posts from @[email protected].
They post good memes, insightful comments, moderates a few communities I think.
probably not a real squid though, I don’t think they got internet in the ocean
Checks community’s modlist
I’ve seen them a lot as well, but personally in my interactions, I’ve found them to be abrasive, narrow minded, and eager to take things personally. Lowkey don’t mind that, it’s not the internet if everyone is some polite bland npc.
But add mod powers for many communities and…
and that right there is the problem. Lemmy is back to Reddit’s power-mod problem.
Same.
I’ve seen them goad people into arguments and then smugly mute them and tell them they need a timeout lmao
Or arbitrarily ban them all together. My favorite is still baning for tos violation then leaving said violation up
I have seen their name a lot, and though I think I share similar opinions with them on a lot of things, I find they tend to be more condescending and insulting for my particular preference.
He also uses the fact that he is a mod to bully people. He just holds it over the conversation at times to force it to go the way he wants.
he also has a habit of replying to people without fully reading what they’ve written, creating long chains where he blames everyone else for his failings. it’s ugly.
There are some infamous ones for the amount of misinformation they post.
Some even under this very post…
Does SMCF post misinformation? I honestly don’t know.
Everything I post is false.
@[email protected] obviously
Is that the actual actress? If so, how the fuck did she wind up here?
It’s obviously the real actress. Who else would it be? Do you think someone on the internet would just pick that name to use if it isn’t theirs?
No love for @[email protected] ? They’re not always the best troll, but man are they prodigious.
Putting their comments aside, I think it’s really impressive how they came up with the perfect four word combination to blue-screen my brain every time.
academy award nominee “Margot Robbie” of course!
Ugh.
You’re gonna feel pretty silly when it’s really her and she dates us all.
