I voiced a calm opinion. Others seem to be more ‘engaged’ in trying to shout me down. Just as I thought might happen.

Yeah I hear you. TBH I think it’s because Lemmy is so quiet, sometimes 100% of the time in some communities, that I frequently don’t care what sort of engagement I get as long as it’s something.

Chasing the dopamine of social interaction I guess.

I can’t promise to only foster empathy everywhere but I’ll do my best to be cool here.

TBH I actually have a lot of empathy but I also love going off half-cocked online. Probably as a release valve for my inner demons which don’t get exercised enough in daily life.

I’m rarely actually serious (apart from my hatred of the disfunction-by-design of the RightWing) but it’s easy for that to get lost in translation.

Poe’s law etc.

I’m glad someone did this study, even if it’s not going to change my use of the slur against rabid gun owners.

Funny how people get so butthurt and rage-filled when it comes to aesthetic opinions.

Oh I’m just spouting off occasionally with hyperbole, rants and un-serious trolling.

Don’t sweat it.

I enjoy what I do, for the most part, and take pride in my work.

I’m not talking about a cup of oil, just a tsp or so. Sometimes all our kindling etc is a little damp and stuff seems reluctant to get going. The oil or even an old tea-light paraffin candle helps it marvellously!
