Can US elections be over please? (self.casualconversation)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by horse_tranquilizers to c/[email protected]
 

I get it, 50% residents of one of the most influential countries on earth will be very upset, with a lot of geopolitic consequences.

But for some, we cant change the outcome in anyway, I hate the way content even on the Fediverse becomes. Yes its important but man. I was all into 2016 elections but it doesnt really change anything anyway. Americans go vote and all, though.

I just wanna talk about kernels and factorio, man

It takes two to make a conversation so to make it casual both parties must converse casually. If you are the only comment opposing this conversation's casual nature then it's not the person casually initiating conversation that is at fault but your response that is making the conversation *heated. ~~non-casual~~/~~uncasual~~/~~anti-casual~~/~~casual-less~~ ~~idk what the word for opposit of casual would be lol~~.

Cheers to a casual as fuck conversation 🍻

Edit: fuck itd be so cool if there was a way to only allow voting to reference how casual you thought a comment thread was and keeping a ranking of the chillest of the chillest casual conversations lol if not voting then maybe a button similar to reddit's gold used to be where you awarded the casual-est conversations and have the ranking based on the amount of casuawards you were given🤔
