I feel weirdly conflicted about Dabs leaving. I gathered those stats because I keep a lot about my own posting across various alts and wanted to compare. They had produced such a crazy amount of content, especially for how high quality it all was. And I guess I messaged them expecting to chat about ways to really get posting more focused and organized because that’s been a fascination of mine and instead I apparently made them have a moment of reckoning and log off.
It’s objectively a good thing that a comrade is taking time to reflect and take care of themselves. But to whatever extent I was the catalyst for them leaving, I feel like I’ve caused discomfort or done something wrong. And there’s a part of me that’s worried about the site making up for the loss in content, which makes me feel worse because that’s an awful priority to have. The site will be fine and there’s no way to avoid activity ebbing and flowing, nor is there anything wrong with not growing at a constantly increasing rate like capitalists want to.
I don’t normally discuss my emotional state on this account but I’m trying to be very transparent. I write a lot about how we relate to social media. It’s what this account is for. But I fundamentally am interested in this subject because I use social media in unhealthy ways. I’ve been a prolific enough poster to relate to Debs, though obviously not of the same quality. I was not in a good place while I was posting that much. And I think that subjective alienation can sometimes can lost in the analysis. I feel like encouraging healthier posting habits would have the opposite tradeoff that capitalist social media does: less content up front, but more ability to self-regulate and interact with the world around us.
how much of it was getting deplatformed from yt vs. your DM do you think?
I though that the initial strike was on a single video and he pulled everything down after the message. Not sure how that worked
everyone with a brain saw it coming but man is this 'we beat covid' talk bleak
fucking hell
I love that there's so many choices for what'll be the end of humanity. You've got climate disaster, COVID, or nuclear war. WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE:quagsire-pog:
this is not what I wanted when I heard “may you live in interesting times”
WHEN WILL THEY HAVE ENOUGH ???!!!??? Alternatively, BUT WHO WILL PAY FOR IT???!!!???
this is the worst state of the union in American history. a record that will only be broken by every subsequent state of the union in American history.

I just found out that my employer got $2,000,000 in PPP loans in 2020 despite not really being affected by the pandemic at all, got the entirety of the loan forgiven, then sold the business to a venture capital firm and retired.
:matt-jokerfied:
After working in care and watching some people just deteriorate for years, I can't say you made the wrong choice. One woman screamed herself to sleep every night for months before she finally passed.
I can't even imagine what it's like if you're actually related to them, or known them for years. My mum has said something similar about just wanting to go after I told her some of the things I've seen.
Hope you're holding up okay.
You did the right thing. My grandfather got lung cancer a couple years back and where we are had recently gotten some degree of right to die (I support the hell out of it). He would be either in a hospital and needing round the clock care to barely exist so he went out on his terms with family around him. You made the right call.

It's not about the size of posting, comrade; it's how you post that matters
"wait, were you guys saying 'fund the police' or 'fuck the police' "?
:I-was-saying: I was saying 'fuck the police'
Inspired by our cherished comrade dabs’ noble logging off I pledge to be online twice as much for the both of us
E: i May have gotten the wrong message
Good day so far. Had a little bit of weed, a little wine, a little sex..
Ok after 12 hours of work I can finally go home :yes-honey-left:
