The ability to spray infinite amounts of magic, near frictionless lubricant out of my asshole. No, this is not a sex thing, it’s an arcane-trickster meets the worlds weirdest clown thing.

Imagine being able to have a cartoon-style banana peel. Now make it nigh invisible and give yourself an infinite supply. Now make it deployable by farting, or at least pretending to.

And it’s magic. It actually materializes like 6 inches away from my butt, so I don’t turn my pants into a goopy mess.

Colorless, odorless, tastless. The perfect pratfall. The undetectable laxative. Perfect for parties, an instant “ice” skating rink! Make money winning slip and fall cases! Stand on your head and become the sumo wrestling champ! They can’t push over what their hands slip off of. Win every bobsled race with the most unconventional form, spraying near frictionless lube in front of the sled the whole way. Create the perfect getaway from a heist by sending your pursuers slipping and sliding. Need to quit adventuring and lay low while the sumo and bobsled judges search for the guy who stole all the gold medals after being disqualified? You can make some easy side money through industrial applications! Need to stage some “accidents” to take out terrible co-workers at your industrial job? You’d be surprised how dangerous it can be to go careening off a catwalk at walking speed. Lighten up a funeral, spray lube all over the casket handles! Need to spice up some alone time with the widow? Do I really need to say more?

I’d strongly suggest Wisdom and secondarily Charisma.

You posting the edited comics as a comment response to other people posting the normally attributed ones is hilarious, and you probably could have pushed your contreversial idea about advertisement that way and just become the community’s resident weirdo (meant positively).

Instead, you lacked the wisdom to see the obvious ways your opinions about advertising don’t align with most people, and the key differences that at least most people recognize between corporate ads and individual artists signing their work.

INT is knowing a tomato is a fruit, WIS is knowing it doesn’t belong in a fruit salad.

Then you lacked the charisma to handle the disagreement in a way that didn’t make people even more upset with you.

I’d suggest that luck really only impacted how long you got to post the edited comics before the community caught on.

All that said, I agree it’s some shit that this all is spilling over on your sourced and unedited non-comic posts. You’ve been… ok outside of the edited comics and the contreversial take on attribution. I still think you’ve been interacting with the comics community intentionally in bad faith, but the rest has been pretty standard, just with shitpost-esque comments when people start coming down on you. That’s not a crime, that’s banter.

And it’s hilarious watching people fall for the most obvious trolling I’ve seen in a long time.

I mean, I enjoy the antics of the user qrstuv on the sdf lemmy instance, and they run a “news” community with vague inconsisent rules where you’re nearly guaranteed to get banned for commenting anything at all. They then opened a community called “mod abuse hotline” on the same instance and end up catching people complaining about their ban from his news community… not realizing they’re complaining to the very same guy. So qrstuv and a few others tend to cryptically tease the complainer and that’s that.

It’s weird, kinda mean, and funny. And now that you’ve slowed down to two easily downvote-able and hide-able edited comic posts a day, and usually link to the source, this qrstuv guy is doing more “bad” behavior than you. So I’m not a fan of the witch hunty shit following you to your “not bad” posts.

But a key part of qrstuv’s schtick is that it’s done in communities that qrstuv runs. They aren’t going into someone else’s community and pulling shit. That’s why I suggested that you create your own communities. You can set your own rules, ban the serial downvoters that want to punish you in unrelated contexts, and potentially grow to be just one of the slew of weird personalities on lemmy.

That’s not the community they linked to. They linked to the one on lemmy.dbzer0.com, which should be obvious from the link they used.

Totally a slow reaction to all the right wing stuff like info wars that was being debanked a number of years ago.

Wikileaks? What was that?

Better to spread those cheeks! Don’t trap those in, that’s how Elvis died.

Heads up: If you’re looking for anything more, all of Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood is on Internet Archive. My kid isn’t old enough to navigate anything like Jellyfin themselves yet, but it’s been a good calm show for when we need her to start settling down.

I did need to rename them so they’d be recognized though, which was a pain in the ass.

Should be pretty easy to figure out the mod responsible, especially since it’s across multiple instances.

Either way, I’m really not a fan of mods just banning someone from every single comm they mod. If you want to be an admin, make your own instance please.

Except data centers have already been attacked in this war.

So if I kill a giant dude causing trouble, I don’t have to pay taxes? Score!

Pretty much. A lot of Christians use it as a parable about the having courage, and that the “weak” don’t need to fear the “strong”. I think the better message is “use the right equipment for the job, and don’t miss”.

That developmental comment strikes me as more autistic, and I’m not sure if that’s even accurate for ADHD. My understanding is that it’s based off serotonin receptor issues that ultimately result in reduced executive functioning capability. Basically the brain literally doesn’t release the reward chemical as appropriate, so we hyper fixate on immediate reward.

Most people saying shit like “everyone is a little X” are just being dismissive. Maybe they don’t care, maybe they don’t want to talk about it, but you’re probably not convincing them. I’d probably keep it short with something along the lines of “Most people drink sometimes too, but some people are alcoholics. The difference is severity.”

I’ll be real, I don’t often discuss my “conditions” outside of my spouse, my immediate family, and close friends. I don’t go out of my way to hide it, but I’m not exactly volunteering it.

Anyway, the difference in a lot of these sort of things that people say everyone is a little bit of, is the severity as mentioned earlier.

Like for depression: Yeah, everyone gets sad sometimes. Most people can probably recall a time where something made them sadder than made logical sense. Most people don’t have trouble finding happiness in literally everything, truly believe the world would be better off without them in it, seriously plan suicide methods and weigh the pros and cons of technique, and have such literal and real problems getting out of bed in the morning that sometimes they just don’t.

OCD: Everyone has certain things they’re extra particular about. Most people don’t spend 6 hours in a frenzied panic scrubbing their whole body raw because they found a small hair they didn’t recognize on their shirt.

ADHD: Everyone has issues focusing sometimes. Most people don’t have a near full incapability to deal with things that only have long term effects. Most people don’t have trouble maintaining focus on things for longer than 5 minutes at a time. Most people are able to more regularly force themselves to do what they should rather than what is the most immediately gratifying.

These aren’t the best examples, but I hope I get the point across.

And don’t discount the depression and anxiety diagnoses either. Depression is pretty frequently co-morbid with ADHD, as far as I know.

Personally, I’m on some ADHD meds, anti-depressants, and anti-anxiety. ADHD meds took me probably 5 years of dedicated trying with my Dr to find the right one and dosage that worked for me (this was before quick and extended release meds were a thing). Anti-depressants have luckily been a one and done, got it right the first time. Got on them when I realized that while I had plenty of reasons to be sad, it was preventing me from being able to reliably get out of bed in the morning and do basic care things like showering on a regular basis. Had a period where I didn’t leave my room except to eat for a few months. Tried breaking from them a few times and confirmed they’re still needed. Similar with anti-anxiety. Got it right the first time. Got them when I realized I was literally unable to leave work at work and would just loop stressful shit from my workday in my head during my downtime. Was having stress nightmares about being at work. Same thing, took a break and the shit came back so… yeah.

I believe it was in preview build versions of Win 7 or 10 where researchers found it was sending the generated thumbnails of images on your PC to Redmond (MS HQ). Can’t remember if they said it was for CSAM detection or just a debugging feature in the preview builds.

I love the term terminated. Like did they fire him, or did they drag him out back and give him the ol’ yeller?

Could you share that “logo”? I thinl there’s a lot of ripe ground in Stand Alone Complex for the invesitgation of the laughing beanis case.

Man, you didn’t take the easy way out, this beanis is state of the art!

Those are the only other Gotye songs I know.

Thanks for showing us your beanis!

Modlog shows that OP’s posts have been being removed for 7 months.

Peep the modlog. Tywele at least says it wasn’t them and they want to be removed as a mod from that comm. Plus this user’s posts have been being removed for 7 months and they just now noticed nearly a month after being banned.

You absolute fucking troglodyte.

All modlogs on lemmy are public. Here’s yours you absolute waste of air.

Yeah, lemmy simply doesn’t notify you when a mod takes action against your posts or comments, and it’s not always clear in indicating what has been deleted or not to the user who posted it. It’s a pretty frustrating issue with the software/system.

If the mod doesn’t DM you, or make a comment on the post before they remove it, you won’t be notified.

But the mod logs are time stamped based off when the action was taken. You can look through the code yourself, or I can share a screenshot of multiple mod actions over the course of a few hours against a single post that all have different time stamps (based off the time each action was taken) rather than all having a single timestamp of when the post was made.

Are we certain this is first offense? The mod logs screenshotted in a few places in this thread show removals over months.

OP insists that’s because it’s showing the date the posts were made, and not the timestamp of the mod action, but that’s definitively not how the modlogs work. I can bring up some screenshots of mods taking multiple actions against a doxxing post to demonstrate if needed (long story, someone accused me of doxxing them because it happened while we were arguing and I took the time to break down the timeline of events to show it made no sense to be me).
