Oh that’s true. I’ve seen a lot of cancel/call-out documents archived on IA, some of which were directed at children or had false accusations on them. It would be funny but not that surprising if all of this was over obscure Twitter drama.

This is a pretty common take in Eurovision discussion boards atm.

EBU doesn’t want the controversy of taking a stance on the I/P conflict, but most Eurovision fans are pro-Palestine and a lot are threatening to boycott if Israel does compete. And KAN (which is in charge of Israel’s entry) obv doesn’t want the humiliation of a guaranteed last place and potential harassment/security issues for the musician they send. Giving Israel the boot over the song (which, if you read the lyrics, is actually pretty subtle on what it’s referencing) is a win-win for everyone involved.

Did not get that impression at all. To me it seems like basically the same thing as the “What have you done, Billy?” and “dumbest man alive” memes. Something relatably annoying followed by a hyperbolic “haha if only” response.

I don’t think they did. I just checked. Some subs disable downvotes I’m sure but they still exist in the site as a whole.

Where does that “the eyes of a psychopathic killer” diagram on the right come from?

Energy in gen Z context means vibe.

This guy has never spoken to a gym rat or eboy LMAO. Lots of straight men love masculinity, love maintaining and enhancing their bodies, love their “corporeal existence” as he puts it.

For me a big thing is that because Lemmy is so small, it’s not diverse. It’s mostly liberal-to-leftist nerds from America and Western Europe. I roll my eyes and scroll past whenever there’s a post about any Asian country because you know it’s just gonna be a bunch of foreigners (whose exposure to the country is limited to news headlines) pretending they know anything. And unlike Reddit there are seldom any locals available to set people straight.

I usually don’t give a fuck about ads, but they’ve gotten increasingly annoying lately. Used to be that the popular websites were classier and less intrusive with their ads, that’s why they were popular. Now the biggest websites (most obviously YouTube) are the ones with the craziest most intrusive ads.

Python. It’s the only one I know :(

I’ve been trying to learn C# too but object-oriented programming just slides right off my smooth brain lol.

You can just type “icon pack” into the play store search and install whichever you like. Most of them cost money though.

I did a bit of looking, it’s from coffeetears on Newgrounds/Twitter. You can see part of their watermark near the leg.
