To your point, Manon Rheaume played a pre season game with the Tampa Bay Lightning in the early 90s.

Ahh good call, I hated their official app.

Thats the neat part, you don’t. Social medias value isn’t determined by it’s tech. Its value is determined by who and what you can interact with. For example, people wont leave Facebook because everyone they know is on facebook because people won’t leave Facebook. Twitter is literally run by a nazi at this point and still it’s the same story where Mastodon and Bluesky aren’t even close. Same thing for reddit and lemmy. Lemmy simply doesn’t have the content reddit does, look no further than sports subreddits where any given game has a live game thread with a hundred or more unique commentors.

If you want mode people to come here you’re going to need to do two things. One you need to post content people want to see, and two you need to get very very lucky because as it stands if you don’t care enough about decentralization to lose out of a lot of content, theres literally no reason to be here. Its a long slow road and you’re still going to need reddit to do something stupid before we see another growth spike.

Body positivity almost doesn’t exist for men. As soon as some asshole guy does something, its jokes about their body. Ive seen jokes about being short and no one cares as long as your talking about Putin or Tory Lanes, fat and small dick jokes constantly thrown at Trump. All of these are body shaming that will never be seen by the people they’re directed at but will be seen by pleny of others with those features.

If you believe the patriarchy doesn’t harm men and can’t be enforced or upheld by any gender, you have an incomplete view of what patriarchy is.

Ugh Ive heard them on 40m near me too. Even some 144Mhz nets will have someone fishing for more believers occasionally.

Courage the cowardly dog is how I describe the word Kafkaesque to people who didn’t read Kafka. At least the not bureaucratic context of that word, but im sure I could find an episide that has the bureaucratic context too.

I don’t really work CW, but good thing I can translate without trying to to keep pace. 73 friend.

Everyone says to talk about your problems but the second you do, you’re told that women either have it worse or how they have some worse problem. I’ve largely stopped talking about my problems because I’m never heard, just talked past or worse, made out to be the problem. The older I get the more reinforced my silence is because evey time I open up it’s used against me and this is just normal.

Meanwhile I’m expected to play therapist when someone else talks about their problems and I have to stop my autistic ass from telling them I really don’t want to hear about you. I can’t even get the silence I give returned to me.

This is honestly what ham radio is.

As long as you have the ability to speak, the phrase ‘Im up to 100% dead’ will be true.

I have horrible spelling skills and am very prone to typos on phone keyboards even when I can spell, so sometimes I just leave my mistakes in there just so they know I’m real, totally not becaus I’m a lazy writer.

Oh I won’t, dude woke up a bug and tried to go to work still. If I so much as stub my toe in the morning I’ll just go back to bed and try again tomorrow. Though I do relate with how it took him a dozen pages to get out of bed.

Right now im reading Kafka so im trying not to adopt too much of it into my lexicon or people may think im more autistic than I actually am.

And when Im walking, in my frame of refrence, the houses on the side of the road move behind me. Houses move.

Obviously stop the war but after that: Step one, thorough cleaning of public offices. Step two MRUSSRA hats. Step three, no profits.

Af first I somehow read Arbor Capitalism and I was like aww fuck they’re coming for the trees now.

But I’d seed an upload
