I’m imagining that as a Will and Grace gag and it’s pretty great

1. Browse new
2. First comment
3. Collect massive Internet points
4. ???
5. LEMMY

I never really did this on the bad place but if you browse new and fire off something snarky or heartfelt first it often becomes the top comment in my experience

I don’t think that’s a misconception, this exhaustive series from a real historian makes just that point

If memory serves, it’s in reference to the ancient mammal and also the metal band

Honest question, why isn’t your clubhouse over at lemmygrad enough?

1. They basically say they are, and also run explicitly tankie instance lemmygrad.ml
2. Look at the modlog for lemmy.ml. Among other things, anytime someone has an opinion about China who isn’t Chinese it’s “Orientalism”

I hear he doesn’t really think much of his father’s moderation policies and he might be looking for social media alternatives

The curse of the zombie hot posts strikes again!

I don’t agree with this in all cases.

True, parents usually have a deeply ingrained emotional need to protect and nurture their children but:

• Not all parents do. Narcissists have children all the time. When they do, they cloak their emotional vampirism in ‘love’ like they do in all relationships.
• Even parents with the best intentions have to work HARD not to pass on their generational traumas, abuses, and bad habits.
• Only the child can truly know what will fulfill them as a person. Parents often substitute what they wanted for their younger selves for the child’s best interest.

For those still thinking I have no idea what I am talking about and you and your parents are different… please look into “enmeshment” for your own sake

Homie I’m sorry that happened.

You might want to do some research on:

• verbal abuse
• narcissistic parent
• low self esteem

This is what I wish someone else told me.

Good luck on your journey
