So you pretty much shed a layer of skin. Like a snake.

Gnarly.

You believe the rise in support of parties with racist ideologies is because of ... Other parties not being racist enough?

Cool take on the issue, bud.

Duuuuude, I just set up an account. This is brilliant. Thank you so much for putting me on to this!

This looks to be exactly what I was looking for.

Go have a chocolate or a beer or something; you've earnt it!

Great idea!

At first I was bemoaning the lack of content here, but honestly if I'd posted this on Reddit, either it would get lost in the noise, or there'd be 50 comments taking the piss/laced with gatekeeping and sarcasm.

Everyone's being really helpful. I'm genuinely chuffed.

I'm not really, which I guess is the problem. LinkedIn is handy to follow people in my industry (particularly locally) as they will post things of relevance. But I kinda have to sort through all the wank, and 'here's my totally original take on what chatgpt means for us - in 23 slides of empty bullshit'. Twitter was good to a degree, but it's such a negative space and many people I followed left as things started to go bad.

I think the medium in which I consume this information is the key thing for me - I'm happy to read long articles and opinion pieces, but I need something I can easily scroll through on my phone.

Memes are fun and all but I'm pretty sure my brain is atrophying.

Good tip, thanks!

Thanks! I guess I thought of them as part of a bygone era, likely because most of the sites I've worked on haven't had one.

[–] boogetyboo@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago

Oooh thank you, I'll look into this!

A looooong time ago I remember using Google reader (which I understand to be dead and gone). Do sites even use RSS anymore? How do you access them?

[–] boogetyboo@aussie.zone 1 points 2 years ago

I haven't but a cursory look tells me it's all bit too 'back end' for my comprehension! I'll keep having a look through though - thanks for the recommendation 😃

Yeah no one should be hurt, wet or out of pocket. The empty cup is an easy and anonymous (so no confrontation) way of letting the person know they're being inconsiderate.
