My bad, my bad, it's about as compelling as being dragged by your balls (or alternative anatomy broadly acceptable for the purposes of the metaphor) through broken glass, unless you happen to be into that - not that there's anything wrong with that, but to which case this metaphor doesn't necessarily extend, being aimed at a presumed consensus that being dragged by said anatomy through broken glass would generally be found a disagreeable experience.

This. Playing Far Cry and when you shoot the dogs, which you basically have to do, they make this little whine sound and it's heartbreaking. :(

I mean, they'd absolutely tear out your spleen, but still.

To be fair, anything you actually give a shit about is likely to be easier than university coursework. It's about as compelling as being dragged by your balls through broken glass.

I don't always have an earworm, and when I do the song varies. I've actually been considering logging it like a diary, because I can be stuck on the same song for days, and sometimes, weeks.

Song of the day is Vulfpeck - It Gets Funkier.

Does beer qualify as a food?

Are there any restraints with any kind of outside object your pocket dimension is anchored to? It sounds like this would be super exploitable to pull off some cleverness just as an "invisibility cloak" (although presumably you couldn't see your surroundings from the inside, or it'd really be OP), let alone if you're not tied to a physical object. If you wanted to, you could probably rob banks and overthrow countries with that shit.

I have some immediate suspicions, but that's the easy way out. I'd have to see. After all Tiktok has worthwhile content, I'm told.

Thanks, and you too. :)

Being a jerk is extremely subjective - someone could brand you much worse than that just from a polite disagreement from your side, that they don't want to deal with. Aside from anything else, this is a highly "techie-y" space with a ton of strongly held opinions and ideals, and misunderstandings when communicating/discussing them happen. A lot. It will keep happening. People will look like asses without necessarily doing so intentionally.

Now, outright trolling, spamming, shitting on discussions with obvious bad faith participation, consistently derailing unrelated threads with one's hobby horse, obvious flamebaiting and so on... great. Reporting and removing more of that should be a priority everywhere.

Banning politics from any non-political community that can be persuaded to do so also sounds like a great idea on general principle. Politics is poison (particularly what passes for it in the US), and it would be polite to not shove it down the entire fediverse's throat. Every geographical sub is politics, every news sub is politics, there are dedicated politics and politicalmemes communities, and still it's fucking everywhere else also. Asklemmy and NoStupidQuestions are full of thinly veiled soapboxing (which leads to a lot of awfully stupid questions). People who want to JAQ off to politics can easily make their own community for that (that way, the rest of us can block it, as intended), or else keeping it in their pants would've been kinda polite, idk. Seems odd to insist on posting political stuff everywhere.

Because they said so. That is it, the whole reason. If you were expecting a good reason you'll be disappointed.

Nope, not a snowball's chance in Hell. Adding even minor fees to this causes instant screeching rage, and persuading people with "the greater good" or "it's just plain necessary" or basic facts will not suddenly start working, I'm afraid.
