My wife is the culprit in our house. Should I get her screened…?

Ha, you are very right. I’ve slightly edited the title to fix this.

I’m seeing very simple grammatical mistakes in articles more and more. It’s bizarre. Even if the author makes a mistake, where are the editors? Do we have a shortage of English majors somehow?

Maybe if you’re mostly German, you learn to avoid wild hand gestures from a young age. Just to be safe, you know?

That sounds like a pretty cool solution. I don’t have a good mental picture for how that would work on the technical side, but anything that does behind-the-scenes work like that for new users is probably worth considering.

I think it’s healthy for the fediverse to have similar communities on different instances, because if we centralize, it basically becomes reddit, which means moderation and censorship are at the whims of whoever owns the only place people go.

I’d also like to give a shout-out to sopuli.xyz/c/memes for having a popular memes community too.

Part of it seems to stem from people’s excitement to infodump about how federated social media works.

That’s relevant and interesting to learn about, but the average person just needs to hear “make and account here and start browsing memes” first.

You could do what now?

I wish I had known back in 1997!

They used a hanger to keep closed those useless curtains that are in a lot of hotels.

I don’t think I’d like it now, but back before two-thumbstick FPS games existed, I didn’t even question it.

It’s not mine, but it looks like it might be from a book called Anxious People.

/c/tenforward understands you though.

What about selective presentation of true facts?

I see that type of bias in social media circles a lot, and it also feels like people building their own “reality”. Facts that are convenient to the group’s current beliefs are loudly shared and repeated, while ones that would cause friction are barely noted, if shared at all.

I stole this meme from elsewhere, but I was able to find the template!

Here ya go:

Is it sacrilegious to say that the Enterprise D exterior looks like something designed by Apple?

MORLS

Yeah, I thought the joke in this one was weaker than usual too.

I guess Aquaman as a firefighter makes sense, and so does a Flash as a delivery man, but Superman as a doctor isn’t as clear.

The fumes make it hard for Elmo to think.

Amazing work, lol
