Duval is a very purple county that flips often. There is an active voter base here. Making generalizations about a city with a million people, let alone one of the most populous states in the country doesn't help anything and only makes you look like a dumbass

Commenting on your comment not because I expect you to have them or anything, it's just the top comment so hopefully someone sees this. I know there's a handful of links out there to browse instances. Are there any that can see who's defederated with who/ which instances are federated with the most instances? I had another account on a .ml domain instance but they got purged with a bunch of others a couple of weeks ago. I use my lemmy.world account because it has the most-ish reach for finding new communities and whatnot

Ground white pepper should do the trick if you have some. It's 99% heat and 1% pepper flavor so it would be a good stand in for horseradish. My brain first went to ground ginger but it won't really be a good sub for horseradish. Though it may taste good given the other ingredients. If you don't have white pepper, I'd just up the cayenne. It doesn't have that nostril burning quality to it but it'll be spicy nonetheless

Probably. That did not look good

Branding is key. You're not poor, you're ✨frugal✨

Fair enough! For what it's worth I think the admins statement was self righteous and pretty fucking stupid as well. But it is what it is, communities are more than their admins and I think they'd make a good addition to Lemmy. And at the end of the day, there's nothing stopping me from making a hexbear account or one on an instance that federates with them

In unrelated news; My mom says I'm the handsomest boy ever

Fair point, rock on Ms.Lion

Yep, i started out on jerboa but it got too buggy for me. Stumbled upon connect and never looked back

Look at my comment thread. I have a guy calling me a woke tankie for a simple disagreement. The shit slinging is already present in and among lemmy.world users. Having (potentially) more shit slinging is not going to change much. I've browsed hexbear a handful of times and was looking forward to their federation. By and large, conversation on there is pleasant to neutral. It's a bit cringe at times and occasionally hostile to non-leftists. You see the same from the right and centrists as well. That's just how online political discourse goes. If anything, I'd say the online right is a lot more hostile, bigoted and prone to harassment than the left. But I could be biased.

The way I see it, the admins are basically saying that political arguments are fine among our users and those from other instances, just not hexbear and lemmygrad. Which is pretty silly and a tad dramatic

Why is the lion wearing pants

 

I think lasers are pretty wack when you think about them through this lens. A small, wand-like object in your hand can make light appear from seemingly nowhere. If it's powerful enough it can set things on fire or blind people. Not to mention larger ones like laser cutters or the LLD, used to destroy missiles midflight. Thats sure to blow some feudal peasant minds
