Parenting, since our first child was born in September of 2020. Still giving it a go. We just had a 2nd child this July, so I guess you could say things are getting pretty serious.

Ouch, I feel that one.

It’s better than “no censorship”. It’s “whatever censorship you and your instance agree on”.

Don’t like the rules at beehaw? Cool, leave beehaw! Too many boobs in your “all” feed? Cool, block the domain or join an instance that doesn’t federate with them. It’s just SO much better this way for everybody.

Specifically, when I google stuff about how kbin works, I see the only answers are on Reddit and then I’m in a real pickle.

Username checks out and concerns me.

I think I would like the FEDIVERSE even when its the “old thing” just because as far as I can tell, the product itself seems like a terrible place for investments and profits. Then again, I could be WAY off here.

Also, at the moment, there’s an almost complete lack of marketing/advertising, which is REALLY nice.

Oh yeah I guess I should clarify that I meant to say that they’re capable of displaying compassion (I’ve seen it). But this, obviously, was not compassion.

I think it really helps if you think of some people as people and other people as “people”.

They certainly didn’t lack compassion. Like, if you were one of theirs, they’d give you the shirt off their back and infinite second chances. 2 of the kindest, most caring people you’d ever meet… But yeah, they were also very capable of dehumanizing people and not giving a damn.

I used to work for a small, family owned business. At lunch the wife of the owner was reading an article in paper and said, “90% of this school district is close enough to the poverty line that they receive free/reduced breakfast and lunch, because there’s a good chance those are their only reliable meals for the week.” Then she looks up from the paper and says “Can you believe that? They’re giving away breakfast now, too!”
