I blocked pretty freely on Twitter till I left the site around when I got the Bluesky invite. I still block freely on there, but not Reddit or Lemmy. I didn’t on Reddit cause there was a cap on how many accounts you can have blocked and Lemmy doesn’t handle blocks in a way I like so I just don’t bother. I like being able to curate my experience and the experience others that interact with me have. I got no energy for shit stains so blocking is easier than constantly knowing they exist.
They don’t care cause it won’t affect them financially. People get upset, but there’s so many that don’t care that it doesn’t matter. Just look at the backlash to the Switch 2 game prices only for it to become one of the best selling systems day 1. Then there’s the outrage over Pokemon Sword and Shield cutting tons of Pokemon and the lackluster visuals only for them to be some of the best selling Pokemon games.
This is why I use the block button and block lists frequently on Bluesky and not at all here. Actually does its job there.
Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zipto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What do you think about the concept of lesser evil? (i.e. when faced with selecting from two immoral options, the less immoral one should be chosen.)10·4 days agoWhen it comes to politics, it’s dangerous thinking that got us in this hellhole in the first place. It proved to anyone getting into politics that you can be a massive shit stain, but just be a slightly smaller shit stain than your opponent and people will support you to no end. Alternatively you can be the exact same level of shit stain as your opponent, but say things in a nicer way or just not at all and get the same results.
I personally have refused to accept this outcome since the only thing it leads us to is a slower death. I’d rather put my time and effort into supporting those that keep us alive even if most refuse to support that decision and call it idiotic.
Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Has Charlie Kirk ever changed his views on a subject during a debate?1·5 days agoI might need a year. I don’t get this level of happiness often.
The hell you mean he argued for their free speech rights? He wanted LGBTQ+ people dead! Can’t have any speech when you’re in the grave as he’s currently finding out.
Considering how many libs have been constantly going on about how awful this was and that we shouldn’t partake in political violence while doing nothing to denounce Israel’s MANY crimes against humanity, I’m inclined to disagree.
Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What is it called when you believe the U.S. political parties shouldn’t exist?1·6 days agoWe can get there with A LOT more violence.
Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•do you consider joking about dying and killing oneself a sign that the person saying it is troubled?2·7 days agoI talk about wanting to blow my brains out all the time. Honestly just a way to vent frustration at life.
Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zipto memes@lemmy.world•The Legend of Going To Bed At a Reasonable Hour5·13 days agoI’m 30 and struggle to go to bed before midnight or 1 AM. Not a good thing when I start work at 6 AM.
Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If you argue for a cause like affordable housing for everyone, is it necessarily hypocritical if you also own investment properties?4·14 days agoYes. Anything that gives people monetary incentive over basic needs should be removed. Keep that shit to things that don’t matter.
Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If you argue for a cause like affordable housing for everyone, is it necessarily hypocritical if you also own investment properties?11·14 days agoIf you make even a penny of profit, then yes. Housing should never be something someone does to make money. Shelter is a basic human need for survival.
Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zipto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What in your country/area is totally normal but visitors get excited for?6·19 days agoAs someone who has never ridden a train (unless you count the thing they use to get around the Atlanta airport or the slow ones at a theme park or zoo), I wouldn’t be shocked if I ended up doing something similar. I just think trains are neat and would love to ride one someday.
I’ll admit the streaks kept me hooked to at least checking in daily. Then I got a permaban so I couldn’t do streaks anymore so I stopped using the site.
Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zipto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Where is the best place to go to engage in polite conversation with random strangers?2·26 days agoMy therapist recommended I try to do some volunteer work when I brought up not having anyone in person (other than him and family) to talk to about things really depressed me. Told me about a site called justserve which has quite a few community volunteering projects on it I’m willing to try out.
Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zipto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•On a scale of 0 to 10, how good are you at technology?4·26 days agoProbably around 4-6. I know the basics and can do a few other things after using resources from Google/YouTube, but there’s times where I stare at a problem and feel like I became my parents who can’t figure out how to make a window take up the whole screen.
Because it doesn’t support Democrats and anything that doesn’t support them must be supporting MAGA. Politics is black and white like that.
Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zipto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•how far out of your way do you go to help wild animals each day on average?2·26 days agoMy dad likes to feed wild racoons and I help him with that. He puts some dog food and a couple other things out for them and they come up every night to get some and hang out for a bit before returning home
Oh yeah. I got a temp ban for saying the above and then got 2 more strikes for just saying the word “violence” which resulted in my permaban.
