Hello community, this thread is going in places a community shouldn't go. Remember to hate the argument, not the user. There are also people that said things on the fence that seemed to be making up arguments or trying to start arguments. I temp banned you.

I didn't catch them all, feel free to report if it bugs you. I'll take a look.

I appreciate the work you put into this. Thanks.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 day ago

This is a great community, so it's easy. You guys usually self-police, and in a funny way. The sculpture guy further down cracked my shit up while softening the conversation.

Insert pokemon catch them all joke here

How dare you compliment your host? What are you a "gracious guest"? How disgusting.

Seriously, what does she think she is accomplishing here besides broadcasting her misandry?

3.5 million views? Why? Is this person supposed to be famous or something? And for what and absolute unnecessarly condescending nasty tweet? What am I missing here?!

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago

I'm so used to Lemmy viewcounts that I sometimes forget how big X/Twitter is.

Thanks for helping trump get elected.

Oh you like waffles? So you hate pancakes and support cakecide?

This is why people just don’t compliment strangers anymore or engage in any sort of polite conversation.

Everyone is looking for irl or online gatcha moments for that sweet hit of online dopamine.

It’s sick.

[–] texture@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago

i dont complement strangers bc im too shy and they are strangers

[–] quips@slrpnk.net 5 points 1 day ago

100% due to chronic internet use. You use that shit too much it warps your perspective

I thought "wow, she's worth avoiding".

Then I thought "oh no, people are going to overgeneralise the heck outta both this person and her nasty comments and the comments are gonna be a shitshow of stereotypes and crap gender war shit". I was not even a little bit wrong. There are definitely exceptions, but I think the most noise is being made by that stuff.

Consider that the original tweeter is a shitlord and that their entire anecdote is made up to generate "engagement", and don't worry about it ever again.

Most people are single issue voters and demographics don't change that. Race/sexuality/gender does not imply some deep overarching ideological alignment to the degree that people treat those as. It's just some single issues and/or social group tribalism and then outside of that, they're often all about themselves and everyone else is lazy/entitled/whatever. Spend enough years regularly doing political/community/social outreach/work, town halls, etc. Things that put you regularly in contact with people in need or saying they have unmet needs and listening to them. Also spend enough time in art communities. Surface level people may sound like they're really about some humanistic standard. Doesn't take long until you unravel to find someone that's just really about getting there's

Watch out of people that make aesthetics, popularity, a major part of the their personality and how they judge people. Social justice as top care on their socials and verbally, but racist as hell in practice with how they date and treat people and talk behind their social group members backs. Social justice peacocking but in practice finds poor people uncultured and disgusting before ever talking to them. If they dress the part, they're an artist. If they're an artist that wears worn down clothing, they're uncultured and likely problematic.

Away from that, I don't know anyone that brags about buying a knife set that's a fundamentally good cook. Someone getting started trying to get good may get one but they usually want to get rid of it not long after trying to fundamentally do well in a kitchen. Social status home cooks may know a small set of recipes but just change the size of their pots and pans and they fall apart. They can't scale with portions and don't know ingredients independent of a complete dish. Knife blocks, people regularly just drop a knife in the slot and dull their knives. Knife blocks also have so many redundant knives where they're like 1cm different in size. Same with pan/pot sets. Also non stick stuff. Have like one for fish and eggs and a silicon spatula to flip. It'll last a super long time. A non stick pot to boil noodles in, fresh noodles are in and out. Dried noodles don't even take that long. If you're cooking some chunky noodles and you can't manage stirring it occasionally for 10 minutes, come on. Other stuff, learn temp control and your ingredients. Stop burning stuff. It's practice. And when you mess up, learn to clean your encrusted pans. You'll get there

Gardening. Develop and maintain your soil. Your aesthetics won't make up for poorly maintained soil. And if you're starting with rocky dead clay, no till gardening doesn't apply to you yet. You can till at least once here to quickly deal with compaction and introduce life to your soil. If it's your first year, be patient and don't be shaming people. At least make it a few years instead of being a first year asshole and then quitting because gardening takes a lot of maintenance. A lot of repetitive busy work

Decor, if you newly own the place, consider how old the pipes, insulation, electrical is. You may want to handle that before piling in new furniture, decorations, painting walls. Also what happened to the whole environmentalism stuff. In my experience people that place a major emphasis on decorations to express their individuality and/or aesthetics are often vocal environmentalist but mostly fail because of their need to show off.

Aesthetics hide a lot of mediocrity. Don't be fooled by aesthetics

Maybe the dude was just... you know.

Poor.

Came from an environment that was usually a mess, chaotic, disordered, and he was genuienly impressed by how simple things, in order, can give a significant sense of safety and stability.

Maybe he'd never seen that before, maybe he had no model of a tidy and peaceful living space.

The same scenario could happen with anyone, of any sex or gender.

Man, broad societal levels of narcissism are just off the fucking charts these days... its the literal opposite of solidarity, of empathy.

I keep seeing this content that’s “men are so stupid and inferior and awful” and it’s grating on me.

Like, yes, there’s definitely a strong toxic subset of men, but most of use are just… normal?

I’m in my mid 30s, when the women aren’t around we’re mostly talking about kids (those who have them), hockey, finances, house stuff, and weird health issues. Depending on the group, how stupid politics/government shit is lately.

I don’t know. It feels like the toxicity that came for incels is coming at women hard these last few years. Reddit really pushes this stuff lately.

That's because it's troll bait. Just like all generations have a bigger than wanted set of shitty people. I don't feel like I can take this shit down because it's not breaking any rules. You all can help by not falling for the bait though.
