Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Touch grass, dude.
Open your fucking eyes, dude. Everything's dying. There won't be any grass to touch, in our lifetimes.
Touch grass.
Get off the fucking Internet, stop immersing yourself in anxiety and misery, and exist in the real world for a while.
Shit's okay.
Lmao, tell that to the millions of families in Northern Africa and India that had children and grandparents die of heatstroke and thirst in the last few years (obviously you don't give a fuck about them). Or the hundreds of people that died in a wildfire in Hawaii (no fucks given, again). Shit is not okay. But it finally makes sense now, I'm such a fucking idiot. You're a climate change denialist. The destruction of civilization is partly caused by people like you; simply by being ignorant, selfish and so goddamn stupid. Block me so you can continue believing you're a good person and existing in the real world, or rather: living in a bubble and ignoring everything that's happening right now simply because it's not directly effecting you. Well, this conversation will likely only serve to as a reminder of how shitty of a person you are when you starve, die of thirst, burn to death or drown in flash flood. Or maybe some desperate person murders you for your whatever scraps of food you have and eats your dog, if you hadn't eaten them already by that point. Then you will know I was right (unless you're just that good at ignoring things that make you feel bad), but it will be far too late and already is in many ways. Again, not that it matters to you. I beileve you would much rather Live a Bubble and ignore the millions of climate change related deaths that don't effect you. Which it will, eventually. Not that you can think that far ahead, or beyond your next Wal-Mart trip.
I'm so glad you're still able to get to Wal-Mart in comfort though.
Fucking block me.
