Fair enough

Heaven forbid those woke ass blind people be able to enjoy life the same as people with full vision!

Also, it’s a text description of a video. How tf does that help blind people more than just watching the video?

He still technically holds the title of president. You never lose the title, just the powers. Carter’s still President Carter. JFK is still President Kennedy. Trump is, extremely unfortunately, still President Trump. None of them get powers, but the title is forever.

Which, fair imo. It’s a position only 45 or 46 people out of millions of Americans have ever achieved (idk how they count the one dude who skipped a term). Keeping that title for life sounds fair to me.

Alabama is way worse than Mississippi or Florida in just about every way, they’re just quieter about it.

Even the weather’s worse. I’ve been in actual jungles that were less miserably humid than rural Alabama. And I’m jungles you get cool jungle noises. I’m Alabama you get tractor noises and the worst Lynyrd Skynyrd song on repeat

Hell, the unofficial mottos of Florida and Georgia are “at least we’re not Alabama”.

Florida and Mississippi just get more media coverage cause everyone’s given up on that entire state at this point

All Cops Are Bassmurderers

From my understanding, the title of president is permanent. The powers are (supposed to be) temporary

Almost anything you see coming out of this God forsaken state is intended to hurt someone or to benefit the rich and powerful.

The last good thing that I can remember is when Tennessee Promise got passed and made college “free”. Except you had to go to either a 2 year community college or one of a handful of specific colleges (which conveniently didn’t include any HBCUs). And then you had to be enrolled in a 2 year program. And if you ever dared to declare a major (which was really easy to do accidentally), you immediately lost it for every future semester with no hope of an appeal.

Basically, there were a million ways to lose it and never get it back. This isn’t evidence of anything, but I don’t know a single person who managed to keep it for the full 2 years at a regular university.

Don’t know what else to say but boohoo

It’s TN. They’ll win every seat except Nashville, Memphis, and that one West TN area I always forget the name of but they always vote Democrat. The first KKK was founded here, and the second and third were founded a stones throw away. I should know, I’ve been to Stone Mountain and witnessed Even-More-Racist-Mount-Rushmore.

That mentality has never really left rural Tennessee. Hell, even suburban Tennessee is wildly racist. My parents home town has outright stated they’ll never allow public transportation because it’d bring in more Black and Mexican people to their 85% white city.

Also last time I heard this from the city’s attorney, he didn’t say “Black” or “Mexican”. Instead it was an outright slur.

Again, this is from the city’s attorney. And he’s probably the least racist high level official.

They live 20 minutes from Nashville.

Wait, wtf does that song actually say? I thought it was Starbucks Lovers

Wait, I can remotely control the snakes?

Wait, the Chicken Soup people own Redbox? Has that always been true?

More of a vas deferens I think

I’d bet the wrong one got posted, then it got updated but the update hasn’t propagated to your instance

Maybe a forced pop-up whenever you submit content. I know people are gonna hate it, but putting the option right in front of their face makes them far more aware of it.

If you wanted to make it optional, you could allow users to filter untagged posts. I think that with a combo of the popup could work to make it a thing people actually used.

Basically what were discussing is a less crap version of reddit tags, hashtags, forum tags, etc. The big problem with those, especially on reddit, is getting people to use them and use them properly. Every sub handled them differently (hell, on the 2 subs I modded, both used them differently and I ran both of them). Some subs let users apply, some were mods only, some were bots, etc. The other problem is getting people to use them properly. Hashtags aren’t a bad system, but easily abused (look at Tumblr tags. They’re essentially useless half the time).

Maybe community assigned tags could work. Have the poster tag from the start, then allow users to report if it should have a different level. It seems like a good idea, but I’d want to have something like a trust score behind it to filter errant reports and trolls, which I don’t think is currently something lemmy supports, but idk.

Anyways, just throwing out ideas

I like the idea, but getting everyone to add the tags would be a nightmare unless the culture majorly shifts in favor of adding them

I vote for “NEP” to be the tag in between SFW and NSFW. It stands for “Not Exactly Porn”

It’s for things you could still get off to and would likely get you in trouble at work, but hopefully wouldn’t get you fired

China and Russia don’t have collective ownership over the means of production. They’re not socialist. It’s like the main thing.

Ah, right, I forgot about Mastodon existing!

So, unrelated to the thread, but your server shows up like this for me! on Sync. I’m just curious if you configured the setting “wrong” (or intentionally like that) or if I should file a bug report for Sync
