BlueSky being ahead of X is a real testament to how Mastodon users are insufferable and hostile. I love and use Mastodon but Jesus Christ, make some jokes and relax. Al Gore didn’t take the lead in creating the Internet for people to be insufferable. If a game is on, people might talk about it. Don’t chime in about colonialism or whatever during the game. Relax. We’ll talk about that on a weekday.
“Here’s my angry, unpopular, barely coherent diatribe apropos of nothing about this large and diverse group of people definitely being angry and hostile.”
But the thing is that here in Europe, we are more relaxed than USians because we have government mandated vacation days. It’s even better when I get sick at the same time because I can catch a free ambulance ride to the hospital near the beach since there is no “out of network” medical care (whatever that means) here. I can then take mass transit from the hospital to the beach and make university-educated friends with everyone because tuition here is free. Because I didn’t die in a mass shooting when leaving the beach, I can order a reasonably-sized meal that doesn’t cause instant cardiovascular disease and not leave a tip because our servers are paid a living wage. I can’t imagine the horror of living in such an underdeveloped country as USA. I am so glad I am in the EU.

You seem like a very relaxed person
That’s like saying all Lemmy users are hostile.
FUCK YOU!
Pass the beans when you get a chance? Thanks!
Are they the kind that make you hold in your poop? Asking for a friend.
They’re usually served with beer.

TIL Al Gore invented the internet?
It’s a misinterpretation of what he said, which then became a joke
In the same way that Elon Musk created Tesla’s cars and SpaceX’s rockets, yes.

I dunno man, it seems pretty in-character to me! 🤓
