The Book Elf

If not friend, why friend-shaped?

Lemmy is starting to feel like reddit after all

It’s not all the parents fault, leaving kids unattended under all contexts has been sort of criminalised. Letting your kids play unsupervised outside or even letting them walk to school by themselves could get CPS called on you. I had a friend who had to stop letting her 10 year old walk to the bus stop to take the bus to school, because a “concerned neighbour” called CPS, it was a ten minute walk.

I love lotr, but unfortunately a lot of the fans are far right and kinda unhinged.

Try saying you find it weird and unreasonable that elves supposedly never have sex with their spouses unless they want to consummate the marriage or procreate (so an elf couple with only one child will have only had sex twice in their lives, for example), and the other fans will react as though you personally insulted their mothers.

Similar to what happened with me when I first got a site wide ban. I disagreed with a more conservative post, got a subreddit ban, then a while later I commented there on an alt account because I forgot I was banned from there, and both my accounts were permanently nuked. I tried to come back, managed to do so recently on a new device and IP and a new email, and got an account warning for saying an animal abuser should be screamed at, just screamed at, nothing more. Apparently screaming at horrible people is violence now. I voluntarily said goodbye to reddit then.

I got banned from world news for disagreeing openly (though politely) with one of the more conservative posts there a while back. It was the only time I was ever banned from a subreddit.

With the way they hand out unfair permabans like they’re candy and never actually approve any appeals, I’m surprised the bot to human ratio isn’t bigger.
