Very true, I forgot about the doorbell cameras! Neighbors on FB will often post their camera footage when a “suspicious” (read: black or young) person drives by

I feel the more likely scenario is for public surveillance to reach a point where everyone outside their home (or near a window) is being recorded from multiple sources.
Seconded!

Very mild, it tasted just like a steak. I haven’t had the opportunity to have wild duck, I assume it’s an acquired taste like grass-fed lamb.
If they banned us you’d have to get rid of your top half, and you don’t want to make an ass of yourself :3
Squawk!
I never thought about powdered fruit as a topping! I’ll definitely have to try this next time I bake!
My condolences for your loss, thank you for sharing your gorgeous spread
What do you usually use your basil for? I’ve been making pesto and adding a leaf or two to sandwiches but my plants put out more leaves than I can keep up with sometimes
That looks awesome!~
I don’t think there is anything they can do to get me back anymore. I have a lot of issues with the culture that exists on that site, and that’s not something that can be fixed by walking back the API stuff or removing a few problematic individuals.
Currently I keep a handful of chickens and ducks that I’m raising for eggs and meat, my veggie garden has tomatoes, spinach, lettuce, peas, and potatoes growing, and I just put seeds down for squash and cantaloupe! The goal this year is to be as self-sustaining as possible with scraps fed to the birds and their manure fertilizing the plants
I’m dealing with this myself, and as others have said as people exit education and enter the workforce, there’s often fewer opportunities to meet new people and develop friendships. In school you had multiple classes with all new people to get to know, in the workplace you’re usually working with the same dozen or so people. I personally also have a detached workplace persona that’s very different from me outside of work, and that barrier naturally makes it harder to make genuine connections.
Local events like farmers markets or board game nights at a local game store are great ways to meet new people, it just takes some proactive effort to find them, actually show up, and be open to conversation.
I’ve been reading your comments and I see a worrying trend of false equivalency. As others have pointed out, two facts can be true without excluding each other.
I fail to see racism and orientalism present in this thread. What I do see are people linking to lists of human rights violations committed by the CCP, people complaining that unequivocally pro-CCP messaging is disingenuous, and people upset that a ban reason was not adequately explained.
I’m a card-carrying communist who sees a lot wrong with China’s handling of political dissidents and ethnic minorities. From what I’m seeing about lenny.ml, it seems like milquetoast criticisms are being met with bans and censorship, and I see prominent users defending this practice citing “imperialistic anti-China propaganda” as being the reason why the uninitiated doesn’t blindly praise the CCP. This belief is rooted in some fact - American media tends to portray eastern countries in a harshly negative light - but I hardly think that means that all criticism is made in bad faith.
I’m reminded of unequivocally capitalist sites banning mentions of communism and critiques of capitalism, and I believe that this trend does nothing besides foster the echo chambers that I, at least, have been trying to escape from.
I personally migrated because I wanted to avoid the majority
I believe this troll is referring to the transexual and bisexual pride flags on OP’s banner. Best not to engage further.
