I am in no way techy, but from what I gather because the posts are federated they are also stored on the other instances as well, so posts are still visible. In the post announcing the shuttering of .ee they specifically mentioned adding a note on your profile to link to your new profile, so people can find your new profile after that shut down. That implies to me that everything not intentionally scrubbed remains open/visible long after the shut down of the original source.

Again, though, not techy, so I may be vocalizing from my posterior

I don’t have a strong opinion one way or the other. But I do have a fun story!

When my mom was pregnant with my older brother, they had a phone repair guy at the house. She was going through a book of baby names and trying to pick one, while her husband was yelling from the other room that his name would be the same as his (we’ll go with John for the example and privacy).

Husband: (yelling) his name will be John, same as me!

Mama: no! I will not do that! He’d be a junior, I’m not naming my son Junior like some redneck!

Husband: it’s not a redneck name! You don’t have to call him junior, call him john!

Mama: no, it’s trashy! It’s a white trash name and I’m not doing it! I want him to be able to read, not learn how to make moonshine out of an old radiator!*

*That one’s an actual direct quote

Phone repair guy: turns around I need something from the truck.

Mama looks up and notices his name tag. Junior.

Dude left, got in his truck, and drove away. Sent someone else out the next day to fix the phone

Which one?

This is literally how my mom met her first husband

FBI? Yep. This one right here!

Papercut enema is so fucking horrible. I genuinely regret reading that. My ass puckered so hard I could hear it snap shut

We’re in the south. Near Beaufort/Hilton Head, SC

Chonk looks so much like your puppy, I wonder if they’re related someone down the line

Don’t forget BFE. The sticks are almost always right about halfway between BFE and YouGottaPurdyMouth

She looks SO much like the dog my brother found/adopted last year, named Chonk!

That’s nothin’, can’t beat my signed first draft of the Mahabharata, before it was ever even sent to an editor!

Absolutely

The content of this is weird AF (I get what it’s referencing), but I’d like to see more bardcore comics

I should note: this NOT autobiographical lmao

Someone exploded a beached whale and then you drive home in the rain

Fucking love this

I came here to comment “moisturize me!” Glad someone beat me to it

Well… Not entirely true. It was a comment not dissimilar to the one at the top of this thread that made me realize we shouldn’t be keeping cats outdoors. We had always had the indoor/outdoor cat and never really thought anything about it. After that comment and doing a little research all of our cats became indoor cats from then on.

I think it’s just poorly written pseudo-legalese, and it’s intended to mean that he will be unable to enjoy life in the future because of the psychological damage that poor is doing to him (unrealistic expectations and mental harm, et cetera).

While porn addiction and unrealistic ideas of beauty and sex are genuinely real things that happen, the way to prevent that is with frank, open discussions about sex and pornography, not trying to prevent your 14 year old from masturbating. I was a 14 year old boy at one point, and lemme tell you, nothing could stop me from masturbating. Nothing. It’s just not going to happen. Kids will find ways to find porn, and if somehow we completely do away with it entirely (again, won’t happen), they’ll find new ways, and they’ll read and write erotica or get into hentai or whatever. This woman is insane, Kansas is insane, and so are all the other states imposing this bullshit

That’s one of the reasons I hate it so much lol
