“I ever tell you about the time my buddy Keith and I were on the top of a burnin’ building, and we had to fight our way down like five floors of zombies and― Hey, wait a second…I guess that was you guys. Oh, shit, man, I can’t wait to tell Keith about that one!”

Bummer - looks like your post did show on lemmy.blahaj.zone, and I see that you got one up on @gothindustrial. Leads me to think it might be a community ban on @spookymemes for why your toy post didn’t show up there. blahaj.zone was probably just slow.

Let the games begin…

Saw your post and I got curious, as it’s clear your new threads aren’t appearing on the instances you’re posting to.

Test run shows that posting to lemmy.world is working for my account: https://lemmy.world/post/6641504 .

There’s a couple things that could be happening, but I’m gonna go with my gut and ask do you have any domains blocked? There’s been repeated issues with domain blocking affecting your ability to post (in fact, I had to clear all my domain blocking to properly post to kbin). This is the first thing I’d check.

The next thing would be to see if those instances or communities banned you. This seems unlikely, as it’s affecting you on both lemmy.world and lemmy.blahaj.zone. The last thing could be that these communities have defederated or blocked kbin users due to past spam issues (@Technology is still blocked on lemmy.world due to this), but I haven’t seen it implemented in this way before.

But I’d start with the domain blocking - 90% of the time when people have problems posting on kbin, that’s the cause.

I rewatched this recently, and yeah, all the cliches are there (some rather clumsily filmed even by 40s standards) - but fuck me if Bogie still doesn’t blow it out of the water with that performance. I can’t think of a single film noir protagonist that matches what he pulled off in that film. He’s better here than he is in Casablanca by a long shot imho.

I christened this guy Ratfucker Kennedy when he started his campaign, and today, beyond all doubt, he’s earned the right to bear that name.

If someone continues to harass you after you’ve blocked them, it’s because they’re lonely and want your attention. I’ve found that offering comforting and condescending words while reverse spamming them with Eleanor Rigby seems to end the harassment quickly… especially when they realize that they can’t block you properly either.

You see, according to Cocteau’s plan I’m the enemy, 'cause I like to think; I like to read. I’m into freedom of speech and freedom of choice. I’m the kind of guy likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder - “Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecued ribs with the side order of gravy fries?” I WANT high cholesterol. I wanna eat bacon and butter and BUCKETS of cheese, okay? I want to smoke Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section. I want to run through the streets naked with green jello all over my body reading playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly might feel the need to, okay, pal? I’ve SEEN the future. Do you know what it is? It’s a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, singing “I’m an Oscar Meyer Wiener”.

Agreed. I’d also like to add that intelligence != wisdom != experience, and you need all three to achieve real understanding.

It’s been depreciating at a pretty constant rate. I’d wait to invest until it’s under $1.

@jcrm Lol - I figured out how to do this accidentally. You may have noticed that Jailbait doesn’t appear in the top bar anymore.

It’s because I posted this to it (sfw and 18+ by a long shot, but you’ll still want eyebleach). Apparently that top bar of communities prioritizes those that have no posts. Take a look - you’ll see every suggested community is empty. Posting to one removes it from the selection algorithm.

Pinging @ernest as it looks like the sorting on that top bar algorithm is achieving the opposite of its intended purpose.

I avoid this by not watching porn that makes me sad. There’s plenty of consensual, happy, joyful sex-positive porn out there.

While your point is valid about this particular situation (which is horrible and criminal on multiple levels), your overbroad generalization of porn and the implied assumption of guilt in the viewers is what’s led folks to react negatively to your statement.

On a larger level, this kind of statement plays into the puritanical doctrines towards sex that paint it as a negative force, and subsequently leads to the twisting of a positive, creative act into a negative expression of power and rape in those that accept those doctrines.

Porn is not at fault here, nor are its viewers. Those at fault in this crime are the producers and publishers, who were well aware of the abuses happening under their watch, and deceived their viewers into believing they were observing consensual performance acts. I hope that these women get every cent and more, and it would be excellent to see a class action suit from Pornhub’s subscribers arise in tandem to and in support of their complaint.

抱歉 - 這可能是我的錯

@Virginicus - the Freedom Caucus certainly will. However, the realpolitik of the situation is that any Speaker will need Democratic support to get elected at this point.

There are three possible outcomes here:

1. The Republicans are able to control their caucus and elect a new speaker entirely with GOP votes (highly unlikely, and if they do, a new leader will be just as vulnerable as McCarthy was until 2024)

2. The Republicans are able to peel off enough Democratic votes to get a new speaker in by advancing a moderate and granting concessions (possible, but this effort would likely lose as many GOP votes as it would gain Dem ones unless they convince Jeffries to rally his caucus in support of a moderate)

3. The Democrats are able to peel off enough GOP votes to elect Jeffries (slightly less likely than 2, above) - this is the worst possible scenario for the GOP

Jeffries has them over a barrel as long as he maintains caucus discipline. Thus far he’s doing a far better job at it than the GOP, plus he’s still got Pelosi’s connections in his back pocket (and she’s definitely not about concessions to the GOP at this point). This opinion piece is both an olive branch and a subtle threat to those on the GOP side who can still do basic math - it’s “work with us, or watch us take the Speakership before 2024”.

Oh boy. Just stopped by to warn you that linking to the bad place is likely not to be too popular around here. That being said, your profile there does have some cool links and you seem like a chill dude, so I wanted to give you a heads up before the downvotes started. You’d probably be better served by posting this link in your profile description if you’re really looking to drive cross-traffic.

@inkican Rockin’ - I figure I’ll never get around to writing out the idea, and certainly not well, so why not toss it back to the guy who inspired it.
