This would be Punk Rock for me. I can't imagine all the toxicity in that community. I'm so glad I just listen to it via YTMusic and Bandcamp

[–] jezebelley3d@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 years ago

YouTube Music added comments. Oh boy.

This is precisely why I don't give a shit about "weekly episode discussions" and refuse to watch any show until it's available in its entirety.

Firefly. Only because I've never met anyone that wasn't someone I had to introduce to it. Let alone the comics, novels, board/card games, etc.

But for real, if I ever got anyone enough of a base around me becoming such fans as I; I would also happen to have enough of the old school Mage:tAs books to equate Technocracy with the Alliance and equate the Trads to Pirates.

It exists but is dormant. I've enjoyed the TV show and movie, but haven't consumed any other content. Anything you would recommend?

On Reddit I just read without logging in. It was nice. I'm trying to help build communities on Lemmy, so I'm posting and commenting.

Since doing that, I've been told I'm enjoying my hobby wrong, that my friends enjoy their hobby wrong, the links I researched for a comment thread are wrong (without references to correct info), and that I'm probably wrong about how I want to live.

I know I should have thicker skin, but the slow drip of unfriendliness is alienating.

I wanted to just upvote this and move on, but I feel like that would be a disservice to you because I feel the same way about commenting.

I would say to just ignore the negative comments and continue to post. good people should not tear each other down like you describe. you never truly know who is replying to you, it could be a kid or someone that has some issues that need to be addressed.

I understand its much easier said than done, but training yourself to have thicker skin is like a muscle, just gotta keep going out there and train it lol. good luck!

I have a motorcycle. It's a Harley-Davidson. Immediately, everyone is picturing a large and unpleasant looking bearded man riding a huge, noisy, vibrating, chrome bedazzled air cooled motorcycle without a helmet from one bar to the next.

My harley makes about as much noise as a Toyota Camry. I wear full protective gear when riding it, including a bright and attention-getting helmet. It doesn't get ridden to bars, because drinking interferes with my motorcycle addiction.

The large and unpleasant looking bearded man part is accurate, though.

I never understood the " I'm so badass I'm going to ride without the only thing that can prevent my skull from cracking like an egg" I guess live fast die young, but in the event you don't die the only way we will know where your mouth is, it will be following the feeding tube.

Anyways safe rides dude.

[–] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It has been my long-standing belief that a motorcycle helmet can prevent an accident. I've had too many things hit my visor while riding. Imagine taking a june bug in the eye with nothing but a set of oakleys for protection.

[–] Saltblue@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

The bug in the eye is a classic, I just wanted to feel the air on my face.

I mean, some dudes won't use environmentally friendly grocery bags because they're afraid to appear "gay". Some men's masculinity is oh so fragile. Like a human skull in a motorcycle accident perhaps.

[–] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Guys, is it gay to avoid filling your trash can with a bunch of plastic bags?

The Metal Gear Solid fanbase is probably the one of the few respectful and wholesome gaming fanbase I have seen. While most male gamers are drooling and oogling their eyes on any sexualised female characters, MGS fans question and reject the scantily clad female character in Metal Gear Solid V and always meme about this woman being fully clothed.

Keep classy MGS fans!
