@realcaseyrollins @LukeAlmighty What I love about the fediverse -- the psychos who think silencing all dissent is a sane thing to do can create their little filter bubble consisting of an ever-shrinking group of goose stepping nazis, and the rest of us can enjoy meeting all kinds of interesting and diverse people.
@sjw Where's the report button? I can handle people dropping n bombs all day long, I can handle the actual nazi shit, but this is too far!

Unless they celebrate adversity and exclusion!

Let me introduce you to this thing. They're called shelves. It's great. They're just like the floor, except stacked on top of each other so you get more floor to have stuff! I considered buying a house with 5 times the floor space, but shelves turned out to be a much more cost effective method to store my random shit.
@ThomasWic The thing that needs to happen is the next step (and I don't know if it happens in the next 3 years) -- stagflation, increasing interest rates, plummeting government services and skyrocketing taxes. My generation needs to feel the pain of the consequences of what we're asking for. Otherwise we'll keep asking for someone else to give us everything on a silver platter.
[Admin mode] Anyone on FBXL services including FBXL Social, FBXL Lotide, FBXL Video, FBXL Matrix, FBXL XMPP, or FBXL.NET have and will likely continue to experience intermittent service for the next 24 hours.
There's a known issue with the ISP that have been cutting things off, and is set to be resolved tomorrow. In the meantime services will remain intermittent. After the repair is complete, I don't expect any further issues.

@RustyCrab @dickmasterson You're not wrong. I'd obviously prefer the people I like to come over here and the people I don't like to stay over in their walled gardens with their megacorp overlords.
@KCSooner4Trump @YoungBlood If you think about it, the two impeachments for Trump were carrying water for Biden's crimes.
Trump discovered the (totally true and real we now know) horrible corruption that hunter Biden was the point-man for? Instead of going after Biden, they impeach Trump.
Trump spoke out about the (possible and at this point fairly likely) horrible corruption that occurred during the federal election? Instead of going after Biden they impeach Trump.
It would be fitting if Biden botches the withdrawal from Afghanistan and in response they impeach Trump. They'll probably impeach Trump later for the high inflation under Biden as well, and again for the upcoming stagflation.
The phrase "whipping boy" comes from royal history. Since you can't physically punish a prince who will be king someday, they'd hire a boy and when the prince was to be punished, they'd punish that boy instead. Since that boy would take the lashes of punishment, they were called the "whipping boy". It sure seems like Trump is Biden's whipping boy! Fitting for yet another person trying desperately to build themselves a dynasty.

It struck me when looking at the replies to this post that there were 4 replies at the time, and each reply was from a completely different instance! To me, that's a sign of how healthy the fediverse is.

@dickmasterson I can't wrap my head around people not making the fediverse their main social media accounts. "Hey, I want some billionaire mountain man or some android without human emotions to have the ability to immediately silence whatever I say everywhere at all times!"
I can see something like youtube where you get paid for views, but nobody's getting paid for facebook or twitter for the most part. Fuck 'em.

@saxnot My point is that it *isn't* dirt cheap in western society.
You can make hundreds of dollars a month and not have enough for water, food, and shelter. Easily. That's why there's a constant drive for first 15 dollar minimum wage and now they're talking about a 20 dollar minimum wage.
There's people who are going to be destitute if they retire in the west -- they can't afford basic water, food, and shelter -- and they move to a developing nation and they can live like a king for the rest of their lives on the exact same amount of money.

I tried out a few different Matrix Clients tonight, and there were a bunch that just didn't seem to work. I eventually settled on Neochat, which is really quick and native as opposed to the javascript clients.

I've gotten FBXL video's css looking a lot more like an fbxl site than a peertube site after a few hours!
@obihahn The worst part won't be the actual inflation, it's when interest rates reset. you'll have people who can barely afford their debts at the lowest interest rates ever who will then need to pay interest rates their grandparents would think are normal.
