I’m currently viewing this post (plus plenty of other lemmy.ml posts) from lemmy.world just fine.

For fuckin real. It’s no wonder there is a never-ending stream of politicians and media personalities lined up to push these agendas even though they are patently insane.

My partner and I met on okcupid where one of the “match” questions is “Would you rather live in good times or interesting times?” Just about everyone (including him) answered “interesting times” and I had posted a little comment on it saying something along the lines of “I feel like people are not actually thinking through the implications of this.”

Now whenever something “interesting” but shitty happens (see: the pandemic) I say, “remember when everyone on okcupid said they’d rather live through ‘interesting’ times…?” I’d prefer to just read about it in the history books.

Hot take. Would you really disagree that things have been fucked for the last 3+ years? Regarding “progress in general,” at this point, it doesn’t even feel like we’re moving in the right direction in many ways unless you’re a Christian billionaire.

Yup, this is my biggest issue with Jerboa as well. Using the browser, it has a comment sort but it also has some scrolling bug that was making me unable to read headlines or click on posts haha.

Glad to see them saying as “thousands.” Yesterday I saw a headline (can’t remember where) that claimed “hundreds” which felt disingenuous, regardless of how you feel about the protest.
