Istanbul was Constantinople now it’s Istanbul not Constantinople​ been a long time gone, Constantinople and a Turkish delight on a moonlit night. Every gal in Constantinople lives in Istanbul not Constantinople​ so if you have a date in Constantinople she’ll be waiting in Istanbul. Even old New York was once New Amsterdam, why they changed it i can’t say, people just liked it better that way… So take me back to Constantinople no you can’t go back to Constantinople cause it’s Istanbul not Constantinople been a long time gone, Constantinople why did Constantinople get the works? That’s nobody’s business but the Turks… Dodo do do do de do do do do aaaaaaa whaaaaa (I’m just going to stop here)

Ok it’s from memory don’t sue me if I fucked it up.

I read this comment in Astarian’s voice, lol

Not necessarily about fresh snow. Old snow packs down into hard, slick ice and sometimes fresh snow gives you way more traction. Depends on the temperature.

I’ve been to two. One was very small and one was in a giant stadium. I went because I wanted to hear the local politician talk in the first one. The stadium one I was kinda dragged to but I didn’t mind, it was a Bernie rally.

Yeah … I’m sorry. It doesn’t get any easier. Over time you get beaten down and don’t have the luxury of putting energy into being angry about it. Like, your rage is on a low simmer on the back burner.

Men are blissfully unaware of what pain they cause and what privilege they enjoy and anytime you try to bring up women’s issues they scream “not all men”. Because yes it isn’t all men but we’re not talking about those men in the first place.

Talking about it here is likely to gain negative attention so I understand you’re venting but they’re not going to listen. It’s not impacting anyone. And it’s dangerous because while Lemmy is safer than reddit, you could still piss off the wrong person who might go after you. I’m sorry. There’s very little justice.

I hear and acknowledge your pain.

I was speaking to the general practice of filtering in response to the echo chamber generalization, not the original post calling out instances. Personally I filter out porn instances because that’s not what I’m here for. The nice thing about the app I use is that I don’t see any posts from those instances but I can choose to see comments because people interacting on the posts I see are generally there for random reasons and are reacting instead of posting their whatever.

The ones you listed plus Tough and War Caster

This sounded like an ominous privacy warning lol!

oh yeah for sure. Dude they orchestrated a coup and took over Hawaii in the like 1800s.

Plus I think there was fuckery in Latin America even back then.

While I’m familiar with the east coast and have visited some older structures and monuments there, it still leaves me in awe. I’m from the new new world so even our historic buildings are maybe a century and a half in age. Maybe. Indigenous structures didn’t survive for the most part.

What’s also fascinating is how people can be incredibly blasé about a 500 year old building they drive past on their way to work every day. Incredible.

Neat. Europe having so much history is bizarre to me. I can’t fathom living in and walking amongst buildings that are multiple centuries old.

Yeah CIA likes to overthrow foreign governments, some democratically elected, and destabilize nations. They say they don’t do it anymore but who knows. It’s pretty public knowledge.

Edit: I live in America and it’s like that thing where you can talk shit about your own family.

Not sure how to on desktop but I use Connect and it’s in the menu options of posts. Super easy to block individuals, communities, and instances.

Bruh. It’s not an echo chamber to filter out literal Nazis and other stuff. Ain’t nobody changing their mind from “spirited” internet debate and I don’t need their garbage in my day.

I agree, the filters here are great. I don’t mind the real world stuff but I filter your instance because I don’t want to see furry porn.

(Not trying to be snarky, your kinks are not any of my business, hence the filter. My comment is meant to be genuine.)

Cute!

Yeah … “had”… haha, I’m in danger
