Or, as they say in Arkansas, energetic new workforce members.

Maybe you F'dU, but I think you were the stars of the party.
So I'm looking for a magazine that I know is on kbin, that I want to subscribe from here. I've tried typing in the magazine name in the address bar (lemmy.world/c/Utah@kbin.social), I've tried searching in the "communities" search, and I'm just not finding it and getting errors. Direct linking works, but I then I can only subscribe if I have an account on kbin. Help?
SBC also voted to affirm the explusions of two churches, including Saddleback Church, which was founded by highly respected author Rick Warren and is one of the largest baptist churches in the country. They claim nearly 25,000 people in weekly attendance. And Warren's books, including "The Purpose-Driven Life," are used all over, including in my then-relatively liberal Lutheran church. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saddleback_Church
They were expelled because a woman acted as a youth pastor.
Wow. That's like kicking the Yankees out of MLB because the league thinks that players should be able to have long hair.
The social media provider must "verify, using a commercially reasonable method" the person's identity and the relationship to the minor.
You cam do that through credit card probably.
However for them, it’s not a big deal as the get the following benefits
All ~~undesirable~~ sane and productive users leave for fidiverse or other reddit alternatives. The remaining users will be ~~tame~~ batshit crazy like the users of FB, Instagram, posting conspiracy theories, lies, flames and other content that gets people riled up, but results in more eyes and more clicks. Which destroys Reddit as we know it, but still generates the income that will appeal to investors in an IPO
FTFY.
There's a joke about attracting people who like working pipes and experiencing organs that I'm sure you've told a thousand times.... Though I don't know a ton about pipe organ-only music outside of the common Bach stuff, my favorite classical piece is Saint-Saens' Third Symphony, and I really like Percy Grainger's "The Power of Rome and the Christian Heart" (though the more I learn about him, the more I'm not sure I can like Percy Grainger...). I'll subscribe! Good luck with your community!
So interesting, because we tried an air fryer (not a dedicated one, but a toaster oven with air fryer capability) and found that we just got stale food that took forever to cool. The Instant Pot is great for cooking beans, caseroles, soups, yogurt, boiling eggs, and creating other awesome, gloppy foods that my Midwestern sensibilities liked. We don't use ours a ton, but I'm glad we have it.
Instant Brands will continue operating as usual during the bankruptcy process with help from $132.5 million in new financing.
It's Chapter 11 reorganization, not a liquidation. I think they're big enough that they're not going to go anywhere, but they have to adopt a new, much smaller, business model, since pressure cookers aren't as cool as they were 5 years ago.
I'm glad you're coming clean. I kinda hope that you go back and delete the fake stories, or at least make clear they're works of fiction.
Why?
Because people are stupid. They hear an urban legend about a psycopath putting razor blades in apples and all of a sudden no one can have anything but individually wrapped candy during halloween. People overemphasize anectodes to establish political views or actually make policy changes. Academics troll reddit for evidence to support theories. And "news" "reporters" pull stuff from Reddit and report it, often as fact. If it implicates criminal activity or child abuse, that might cause authorities to get involved needlessly.
Maybe your stories aren't such that they would impact policies, or change political views, or impact lives. I'm sure some of it is just harmless fun (though, when I'd participate in forums like AITA with fake posts, it sure did annoyme), and to some extent, people should be smarter about responding to shitposts. "Throwaway because my friends know my main account" should be a big, red flag. And I'm glad you got to work on your writing skill and voice. I hope you can use it productively in the future, and I wish you the best of luck. (But think about deleting or editing your posts!)
Same happened to me. Then when posting I chose "unknown" or whatever language (not English) and it worked.
