  • Hi Everyone!

    I thought I’d stop by and share a bit. I’m one of those slower adopters who slouched over after reddit’s api crash (i still use old.reddit to check in on my old.country), and am part of the wave that found their way here from lemm.ee. From my time on that instance my main take-away was that dialogue is more sincere on the lemmiverse than reddit, and I guess I’m not a tankie. Hex, eh?

    I am really happy to have spotted this community in the wild. Just in the past hour I read up on new methods for reaching consensus, just by taking a cursory glance at guidelines and lore. This feels right.

    I already wanted to argue how can anyone just pick one character, when I realized I already did as well. Maybe I can add more color in the next census. What’s up with the ‘other’ catagory? Everything made emotional sense and then comes Elon Musk! How spicy.

    Anywho, thanks for having me.

    P.s.: I haven’t really linked the lemm.ee account (not even sure if it’s possible or worth it), but I have found some threads I was commenting on and followed up with the new account. If you go deep enough, you can see how I need to read up on my communistic script. Looking forward to figuring out how deep this rabbit hole goes.


  • I think I was able to bring the ‘at’ closer to the time, but I’m not sure it’s correct:

    ‘This can’t possibly be the same 9pm I used to start getting ready at for a night out’

    I’m tempted to remove the ‘used to’ and just put it in simple past for brevity, but that would hold back half the punch.

    This is one of my favorite types of discourse. Polishing jokes and grammar in the gravitas it deserves.
