  • If it’s a paper asking your opinion or ideas on something, then I used buy a 6-pack of beer, sit down to write paper with some good music on, and just drunk write for about 3 hours. You’ll suprisingly write like 17 pages of bullshit and ramblings, but after you sober up, you can typically condense it down to about a solid 3 or so pages of legitimately good ideas to build off of. I used to love writing papers as I essentially made an event out of it.

    Once I figured out my groove, I stopped the drinking and discovered that isolation was always key for me. I had to find a space without distractions. Our school library had a floor with hidden tables, rooms, and a rule that no talking was allowed. It was dead silent there…it was fantastic.









  • The issue is that they’re trying to get into the federverse, and draw it’s users away. Larger silicon valley companies like this are notorious for buddying up to smaller companies and opportunities like Lemmy, kbin, and Mastodon and then slowly squeezing them out. They want our content and our users, and they’ll kill the fediverse in the process.

    Just watch. It’ll start small with requested updates, how we handle content moderation, small requirements, the “we changed for you, you need to change a little for us” approach. And they’ll start asking for other “small” updates here and there that start benefitting Threads more and more, and start choking off the fediverse until we become reliant on them.

    100% agree. I’m one of the April Knights that team up every April Fool’s for the events. They are 4000% doing this to boost numbers. Fuck them entirely. I refuse to participate.

    That being said, we need to have our own April Fools event. I wonder if anyone would be interested in this? If there is enough of it, I’ll see if I can take on a new coding project.

    Yeah, I mean, they care about it…when it happens to someone they know.

    It’s much more important to concentrate on keeping white men, or…other color men…I guess…at the top of the food chain. Can’t have any of them uppity women thinking they can be a man now, ya hear? What happened to the good o’le Trad wife? There was respect in that there profession. No…too good for the modern woman.

    It’s tragic that all of us God fearing men have to consistently subjugate those around us because the only two things that we’ve ever accomplished in our life times is being born white, and being born a man…in America. It’s like, we have no other self redeeming qualities so we have give meaning to our lives by trying to take it from those closest to us. Makes total fucking sense right?
