Former Gifted Child
  • I was a "gifted child" then went to university and turns out I was not really that special lol. Grade fetishism in school leads to fuckers like me thinking they are hot shit when we're pretty mediocre. I even hit a hard wall with math, which was the subject I thought I was a genius in.

    That said, I never had delusions about becoming something great, I always disliked responsibility and preferred to chill, and I kinda got there in the end

  • Did anyone else have very limited acceptable family convo topics
  • My parents are bigots but I can at least curb their racism because they do seem to actually understand that the welfare system failing is due to austerity budgeting rather than those evil immigrants. I haven't been able to get them to stop spouting transphobia though, only thing that works is telling them to shut the fuck up about it

  • Mao 🤝 Kamala Harris
  • This is just a rehash of his old "Lenin would support voting for Biden", where he cherry picks a quote or two and runs with it.

    Also, as if Lenin and Mao were fully unique Great People and there no current radical leftist leaders that take similar positions, lol

  • Thank you Mr. Hitler
  • There is something so fucking tryhard in the language this post uses. Like trying to sound super radical and cool, so they try to be edgy with "doming" and other shit, but it essentially boils down to the weakest fucking "vote blue no matter who" shit, where they can't even do the mildest crit of their own side

  • Does anybody have any good sources on censorship in the USSR?

    I mean actual proper research, not CIA propaganda. I want to learn what truly was censored, both when it comes to politics and culture like books or film, and actual material reasons why.

    Preferably stuff that destroys the typical Western bullshit about no freeze peach lol, I want to put it against Western censhorship and propaganda.

    Uyghur "genocide" denial? Instaban. Gaza genocide denial? No probs buddy
  • I saw an LW thread about China yesterday and everytime somebody said something even mildly positive about China, some smuglord posted "two questions: is the Tiananmen massacre real and are Uyghurs genocided?" and when people discarded the questions as irrelevant, they posted some le epic reddit debate win reply. LW is worse than reddit I swear to god lol

  • "Why does no one complain about this?"
  • I have worked in construction, metal working and in a warehouse and I can absolutely understand why no woman would want to hang around in those circles lol. I felt uncomfortable with the tryhard machismo and I'm a cishet cracker

  • I am 35 years old and understand this shit.
  • skibidi toilet was more like 2005-2010 meme culture imo, it was exactly like all the shitty "idiots of gmod" shitposts, just ramped up to 11. I really didn't get the negative reaction from all the "adults" considering I was laughing at the exact same type of shit when I was 13. I'm in my thirties now

  • Lemmy.world offically enshrines the siteadmins' right to futher remove "misinformation" at will after an admin overthrew its vegan comm.
  • assuming I'm interpreting this right, people were just coming in and spamming pictures of meat? actual loser behavior it sounds so boring even ignoring how gross it is to do that.

    Oh yeah, carnist trolls are extremely averse to any creativity, it's always literally the same thing, and they think we are so fucking owned lol. As if we haven't watched stuff like Dominion and other slaughterhouse footage, or just shop in regular stores that stock meat next to tofu

  • Tribute to Bun the rat

    This is not a dunk or a serious post either. I just figured I can post this cutie with minimal pushback bc he is just so beautiful. Meet Bun the rat.

    Sadly he died almost a year ago, but he was extremely lovely and kind. Say something nice (or mice) about him, or share your (nice) rodent stories
