@bandie good, even managing the extreme heat with a box fan

@zaun hi! how are you? >:3

@bandie how are you? :>

good evening 👀

@absturztaube @papush

https://github.com/pixeldesu/fediverse-friendly-moderation-covenant 👀

decided to give them a free pass to harass each other (only those 3 users pretty much) and also told them that as soon as they start harassing people outside of the circle, they get banhammered.

guess what happened next.

(banned someone lol)

the banned person then complained about getting banned, even tho I obviously laid down the rules for them.

they even threatened me and I extended their temp ban to a permanent one 🤔

some people really don't notice that they act wrong.

in case people didn't know, I'm one of the admins of https://retrospring.net

so, we had a certain trifecta of users constantly bashing in their heads, we even gave them temp suspensions a few times, didn't help.

funnily enough, it often derailed from a snarky comment to godawful racism. when the other party then replied to that with something equal, it suddenly was reported to be against the ToS.

good morning!

@robin oi, how are you?

@absturztaube ganz gut, dir auch? :>

@roxy THIS

looking at the US, every instance of power, no matter democratic/republican etc. is abusing it as soon as their is the smallest opening

latest instance "delaying bills to keep poll station count low, sign me the fuck up"

not only single institutions in the US need a reform, the whole country does.

@absturztaube good morning!

For Reddit's 15th anniversary, the whole site is now down

good morning!

@MochiWaifu circle_shadow.tga always stuck to your ground plane

@MochiWaifu imagine running around irl without a shadow

or a baked shadow texture

another thing is the fact that Twitter became unbearable in the past few weeks, as BLM and a lot of other important problems also brought upon...other people.

I mostly kept shut about those events because people are super quick to open fire on every opinion they deem wrong.

Even worse was that "everyone who keeps shut is part of the problem" mentality, which didn't make me feel much better etc.

so eventually, I've been a bit absent from fedi because it's hard to maintain a social presence on multiple sites (and no, crossposting is not an option for me, I tried twice)

I'm now coming back because the social circles I've gone back for kinda shattered on me and because people are stupid.

@zaun aaaaa, missed you as well!! hope you are doing fine! :>
