Is it a cellular peptide cake with mint frosting? Or just a cellular peptide cake with regular butter cream frosting?

It can only happen in the tropics near volcanic zones. There are only 3 lakes currently known to have the proper conditions.

Proponents, including council president Sara Nelson, have argued that the city will receive substantial non-financial benefits from the kiosks themselves, which will display art, maps, information about local events, and emergency updates.

Oh yes, billboards are commonly known for displaying art and maps. Someone should see how much she's pocketing out of this.

They were talking about watering the tree of liberty. I'm sure you can find the correct quote and infer who was being referenced.

Guilty as charged. Lol. I just prefer to read about things after I watch them.

That’d be great if it existed, but AFAIK, nothing like that is available in the Lemmy API.

Shoot dessalines a message. It might be fairly easy to implement and it seems like something people might like. I know reddit had something similar for posts.

I would say put a mute all replies button. That would make it so they aren't bombarded by 1000 comments saying the same thing but still allow people to voice their opinions.

In that case maybe just add a "mute replies for this comment" button if someone doesn't like that lots of people dislike their comment and choose to voice their disagreement.

Why post to the internet if you don't want replies? Sometimes you'll get a bunch of upvotes and people agreeing with you. Some other times (for me i've found this one to be very, very few times) you'll get a bunch of downvotes and people telling you how wrong you are and how right they are.

Just like life you have to take the bad with the good. No one has 100% perfect beliefs that everyone agrees with.

Also Democratic Socialism (Mamdani's beliefs) are not the same as Social Democracy. They are slightly different.

Why would downvotes need to be discouraged?

It honestly doesn't matter if someone downvotes you even if you're 100% factually correct and they are absolutely wrong. This is the internet and up/downvotes are made up cool points.

People are going to troll, disagree, create alts to downvote, or do any number of other things that might make people sad or angry. Just ignore them. Investing thought into it will just cause your own grief and them to feel good about their actions. If someone is being pissy and you don't like their comments just block them. We don't really need anything more than that.

If someone just doesn't want to see downvotes because it makes them sad, then they can join a server that doesn't have downvotes. That solves their problem while still letting the people who don't care about getting downvotes use their downvotes to show disagreement.
