You make an excellent point about the fediverse with which I wholeheartedly agree, but the point still stands that OP’s experience on lemmy.world in this particular situation was a result of their own unnecessary aggression towards someone asking a sincere question, not because it’s a “queerphobic shithole.”

Not at all. You were just being a gaping asshole over there.

a tragedy awaiting the overconfident a fun destination for billionaire excursions!

We’ll let them work out the kinks first, you just gotta know how to sell it.

Evidence that marginalized individuals are just as capable of asshol-ish behavior as the majority.

What’s your dew temp?

I’m aware he didn’t storm the island by force - I didn’t use those words. The implication was that he went where it was made abundantly clear he wasn’t wanted - more than once - and suffered the consequences.

I really wish more people were comfortable with admitting this. Props to you for being self aware.

At least one idiot tried, and he got what he fucking deserved.

Roasted/grilled.

The rules for how they’re supposed to work sound simple enough on paper. Unfortunately a lot of us in the US have poor reading comprehension skills.

How to properly go through a four-way stop.

One of these guys walked up and gave me a handful of birdseed, prompting a flock of pigeons to come perch on my arms. I most certainly did not hand over the money they wanted for the experience I didn’t ask for and was somewhat disgusted by.

We’ve got at least two pride events where I live. There’s “corpo pride” with the parades and booths set up by corporate sponsors. You may get a few local businesses in there, but it’s mostly the flag waving corporations clamoring for cash. That was earlier this month. Next weekend we’ll have “people’s pride” which is funded and organized directly by local people. Tends to be much more fun.

Flash back to listening to Paul Harvey in the car while my grandmother drove me to school.

I don’t have a huge game library so my experience is limited, but I’ve had no issues gaming on Mint. Some of my regularly played games include Deep Rock Galactic, Risk of Rain 2, Lethal Company, Astroneer, Elite Dangerous, and Sea of Thieves.

I bought an ancient PC game I used to play as a kid called Summoner, and even that started right up.
