[Discussion] Let's talk about lemmy.ml
  • Me: I WANT THE EXTINCTION OF EVERYTHING AND HATE YOU ALL, SHUT THE FUCK UP AND FIX. EVERYTHING!

    OR I WILL KILL YOU ALL.

  • The truth...
  • I did and it made it worse. Kill me.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • I WILL BURN THE GOOGLEPLEX TO THE FUCKING GROUND!

  • Top EU Court Says There’s No Right To Online Anonymity, Because Copyright Is More Important
  • No, I want to die. I fucking hate reality so much that I want KILL YOU ALL.

  • YouTube's next move might make it virtually impossible to block ads
  • What's the street address of Google again? I'm already homicidally insane, I'll start by burning them TO THE FUCKING GROUND.

  • The debate gets interesting sometimes
  • How about "if Israel and Hamas succeed in killing the last child in Gaza, I will kill all of mankind"? Because I WILL FUCKING DO IT.

  • The truth...
  • You want the fucking truth? The truth is that no, they didn't fucking side with the resistance in any of those. They decided to keep their mouth shut because they don't care about the rules unless those rules are biased towards them and they fucking know it.

    Kill yourselves. All of you. All of humanity. Or just kill me. I'm fucking done living in YOUR world.

  • The truth...
  • At this point, I alone am the fucking villain. I don't CARE what you subscribe to. You can be a vegan solarpunk eco-terrorist, you can be a gun-weilding nutjub, you can be reasonable, you can be unreasonable, fuck it. I want you dead or me dead because I fucking hate all of humanity.

  • International Criminal Court chief prosecutor seeks arrest warrants for Israeli PM and Hamas leaders
  • Thank you, it's always better for people to learn this stuff from someone who knows things they don't and you've certainly made me aware of various things I was not aware of. I just wish there was a better way to handle this, the area shouldn't have to be threatened to get them to follow the Geneva Convention but sadly it seems few with any influence in the region of Gaza even care.

  • International Criminal Court chief prosecutor seeks arrest warrants for Israeli PM and Hamas leaders
  • I hate Netanyahu because he's an asshole who has ensured the people of Palestine will never get the slightest solution to their crisis. I don't hate Israel or it's people, regardless of what anything I may have said on the fediverse in the past (it's REALLY hard not to be absolutely furious that kids are just plain being slaughtered over what was probably some fucking "BuT tHaT wOmAn WaS sHoUlD mY wIfE!!1!!1!" that happened so long ago nobody remembers it, and I am truly sorry for any past comments that could be interpreted as some sort of justification of anti-semetic violence; I do not want harm to come to anyone innocent and am just glad I have not let those poorly-chosen words inform my actions in any way) and I definitely don't hate any jews living outside of Israel because anyone who thinks an expat or second+ generation immigrant has any links to a foreign nation really is dangerously xenophobic.

    If I thought there was a better way to help the people caught between these two sides, I'd be saying it. Unfortunately, it seems this issue will likely be solved only if the US decides it has to intervene in some way, which is why I absolutely support charging that asshole with a war crime. I don't like it one bit, but I have to repeat myself: The attempted extermination of the Gaza Strip, despite the sheer irony of it being so, is industrialized genocide or "destruction of humanity" - a.k.a a Holocaust - by the very definition of the word. We truly live in the most vile timeline imaginable.

  • I'm leaving, please PM me if you want to be admin.
  • Literally every other post on this page certainly helped me out. OP may be gone (no hard feelings for taking over this one after I deleted my own account, we clearly had too many OpenTTD communities in the fediverse) but it's the reason I know I'll be taking blocking of my own free will more seriously. If OP was too impatient, that's one thing, but humanity as a whole has become so insufferable to anyone who is not on the "x-treme" fringes of politics (both right AND left) that your comment deserves every last one of the 15 downvotes (as of this writing) it got for you acting like if there was no blocklist that people don't have feelings.

    I will be banning you from the community I do still run and if feddit.de's OpenTTD community asks, I'll recommend they ban you too, as you clearly feel no empathy nor care about the topic (the game OpenTTD, not the user OpenTTD who apparently named himself after the game and claimed this community sometime after I deleted my account on lemmy.zip) and you seem to have nothing to contribute on either front.

  • "A Nerdy Dystopia" is up for grabs

    sh.itjust.works A Nerdy Dystopia - sh.itjust.works

    For showcasing memes about how cyberpunk you are and/or how cyberpunk the world has become. (Originally created by Gadg8eer; currently up for adoption!)

    It's stressing me out to leave communities that are relevant to it unblocked. The sheer cynicism is affecting my mood and I'm having to block all communities about real life news of any kind for personal health, so I am wondering if anyone considers "A Boring Dystopia, but instead of being boring, it's edgy or (at best) a cool workaround for corporate internet BS." a deserving project to continue? I plan to remain lead mod but give the first new moderator free reign; I wouldn't be asking this if I had any intention of ever pulling anything stupid like deleting it on a whim, I think I would like to see it continue but in better hands than my own.

    "A Nerdy Dystopia", the fediverse community for cyberpunk-like things/actions/people from real life, is up for adoption.

    sh.itjust.works A Nerdy Dystopia - sh.itjust.works

    For showcasing memes about how cyberpunk you are and/or how cyberpunk the world has become. (Originally created by Gadg8eer; currently up for adoption!)

    I can't take reading about how the world is collapsing every fucking day, if anyone wants a mod position and has experience, DM me and I'll give you free reign with an exception for banning me from A Nerdy Dystopia (I will keep the main moderator position to prevent this). Shouldn't be that hard to run a community like this if you're used to A Boring Dystopia's posts, it's basically this but the posts are about subverting corporate control or about how non-boringly evil some people are. I just want to relax and can't run a community like A Nerdy Dystopia without getting stressed by all potentially-relevant content.

  • If that starts happening, I literally break down the stall door, get that shit out of me, and burn down the place. I will not put up with THIS when I am about to soil myself.

  • Apparently this was missed, so for posterity I'm cross-posting it. Sadly, this is old news, not actually a new update. Still a good feature, though.

    Kerbal Space Program 2 team to be laid off in June, says senior manager
  • I'm at the point that violent revolution would not worry me, corporations and the investors who ruined capitalism with demands for 25% return on investment need to be burned out of house and home. We have no other ideas, we need capitalism to work because otherwise we get Warsaw Pact levels of Orwellian dystopia or a damn feudal society, so fuck data farming, fuck investors, fuck finding new jobs. Just do a "silent strike" and when they tell the lot of you that you're fired, say "Not unless you want that fire to spread. You hired us, you fucking pay us. We won't just walk, we'll take you down, so put up or no layoffs. Not when we've been abused for years as contractors. We're fucking done with being threatened with hardship to cover for your mistakes."

    The problem is that we're legitimately in the middle of a class war, the wealthiest 0.01% are actually trying to create a world where everyone else is expendable.

  • Families of Uvalde victims sue Activision, say Call of Duty is 'the most prolific and effective marketer of assault weapons in the United States'
  • I agree purely on a "cultural influence" level, as while I doubt CoD caused a school shooting, it seems the argument these grieving families are making is "CoD glorifies guns and gun culture, therefore this will send a message that gun culture is not acceptable and guns being admired is dangerous." On that I feel that if they have to destroy an over monetized and creatively bankrupt game franchise to send a message that guns are not toys or fashion accessories, CoD's continuation will not be missed by the majority of gamers.

    My only concern is that if they do succeed, that means anything can be censored in the US if it promotes cult-like behavior, which is too subjective to be properly defined without giving politicians another way to FUD people and thus does not solve the problem.

    That, and fuck those cops who caused the majority of the issue. At that point, grab kitchen knives, conceal them, go to a local police station, calmly say you want to report a crime, and when the cop comes out to ask, slit his throat and say "this is for the kids you killed". I would not trust an American cop ever at this point, so if anyone from my own or any other country reads this, I'm not going to kill a cop because the RCMP are actually trustworthy and have ensured everyone's safety. I'm not intending to incite actual violence, only stating that these families are targeting the wrong people and they're probably doing it because they were told justice will never come because the fucking police wanted it that way.

    With Gaza's only lifeline cut off, humanitarian catastrophe looms in Rafah - occupied Palestinian territory
  • Let me be clear. If this succeeds, you're dead. As in, humans. Homo sapiens. I won't just burn down your world. I will kill until the only one left is me and I will kill myself too.

    I already hate you all in a personal way. If this goes the way it's going, I will not fucking stop until we are extinct.

  • Are You An Anarchist? The Answer May Surprise You!
  • I literally am furious at humanity in general. I took and take a series of bad luck in my life personally and want everyone else to suffer.

    I have literally decided that if there is any sort of revolution in my lifetime, I don't care what the result is, only that I now have an opportunity to do to humanity what humanity did to me, and I will burn the resultant society to the ground because I hate you all and it's personal.

    Either prove someone like me wrong, by proving humanity is generally good and I'm the bad guy, or lose everything when I destroy everything you worked towards. I am past caring about what you want, I only care about taking everything that everyone else truly values from them. If you are right about "people are not a good thing overall" then my murderous rage is justified.

  • Opinion | Are We the Cows of the Future? (Published 2021)
  • I would rather be deluded to have escapism, I have always felt like reality is a prison to me and absolutely nothing has ever ruined my life quite like the abundance of anti-escapism in 2017. That, and I am a disabled person whose ability to socialize is further limited by a lack of nearby outlets for any sort of friendship. Screw reality, all I want is a future where my body doesn't need bread, only circuses, but I'll never have that so fuck all of you for telling me that wanting immortality is selfish even though I would make every effort to use such an advantage towards providing everyone with the same benefits and telling me I have to suffer in reality via Once Upon A Time, Twelve Forever, Gravity Falls, Inception, Undertale (or at least it's fandom), His Dark Materials, Ready Player One, the list goes on.

    I am serious, anti-escapism was a godforsaken trend for years and combined with a quack psychiatrist whose medication drove me to insanity via 24/7 depression, it ruined my life (believe me, he was bad; I have a doctor's note from my current pschatrist that the medication the previous doctor prescribed was not recommended for someone with ASD and that his professional opinion was that he considered my previous psychiatrist's behavior to be medical malpractice, because the one I had been stuck with for years was unwilling to accept fault and provide one, and I had to move a long day's drive away just to get adequate mental health coverage from the Canadian medical system in another province).

    I don't give a shit anymore. Let me escape. You can't tell me not to without going full 1984. You want the world to be better? I'm not stopping you but the moment you throw my "circus" of fiction that is unashamedly escapist out the window, I hate you all and I will have revenge. Whatever world you build next, dystopian or utopian? I will burn it to the fucking ground, and say "No. You took everything I cared about from me when I was so close to success, and my life is meaningless to me to the point I don't care whether I live or die even though I am psychiatrically stable. All I care about now is that I will take everything everyone else cares about from all of you. You will not get to say you told anyone so about a dystopia, you will not get to build a utopia, you will fucking starve to death. You can't just fix insanity with meds, it does permanent psychological damage, and so I will drive you all to insanity or death the moment you are this close to your ultimate goal. Enjoy knowing you created the Antichrist, all you fucking worthless over privileged, politically polarized, incompetent, shallowly opinionated, self-worshipping arrogant excuses for fuckwads. I will RUIN EVERYTHING FOR EVERY LAST ONE OF YOU.

  • Report: Sexual Misconduct Investigation Conducted at EA, Suspects Named and What They Did Revealed
  • You're not wrong, nothing excuses this kind of behavior. However, I can't help but feel no company can be held responsible for what an employee does outside of work without essentially giving scummy companies like and including EA an easy excuse to lay people off without paying for unemployment.

  • We Closed the Institutions That Housed the Severely Mentally Ill and We Made It Dramatically Harder to Compel Them to Receive Care
  • What do you expect to happen when you vote an accountant instead of a planner into (potential) power instead of encouraging her to remain treasurer, and then believe a conman when he says the accountant steals from you but act like the conman hasn't stolen people's livelihoods on The Apprentice?

    I'm going to be honest, you've all made it abundantly clear in the US that you don't care about this article's complaint. You know why you never see kids in wheelchairs in 1950s media? "Severely mentally ill" included spinal injury and paralysis. You've never done anything to help people like me because your fucking tax dollars are more important to you. Burn in hell, or at least read Changeling: The Lost (1e) and then assume that what it suggests is... though only in a realistic, mundane way... absolutely true. No, there's no hedge or kidnappings by the fae, but everything you read about in that fucking roleplay rulebook is directly based on reality.

    If you don't have a mental illness or care about someone who does, you are the Gentry that serve as the undefeatable and obscenely cruel demon-gods of that setting, because the real truth is that it doesn't take eldritch horrorterrors to drive someone insane. Unfairness causes insanity.

    So fuck all of you. You destroyed lives for your own selfish desires. There will be no negotiations on this, you don't get to blame the victim. Pay your fucking taxes, or personally help the mentally ill, or kindly admit how much of a monster you are and that you want people like me dead.

    And they all died and everything was horrible forever. The end. Go away.

    newatlas.com Younger generations have bigger brains – and it's impacting dementia

    Bigger brains suggest better brain health and cognitive function. And since the 1930s, our brains have been growing in size. Now, a new study shows how this is affecting our risk of developing dementia, particularly Alzheimer's disease.

    Younger generations have bigger brains – and it's impacting dementia

    Unfortunately, not every dystopian element of real life is caused by corpo-jerks. Sometimes the full truth is inescapably fucking awful even before money gets involved.

    Got confused somehow, sorry about that. I must have had this tab open and mistook it for one of my "bad news suitable for Nerdy Cyberpunk Dystopia" tabs.
