I just moments ago commented about this on another post – it's not just you and not just lemmy.ml

Strangely enough, this has been happening to me when visiting hexbear.net through Firefox. (I haven't tried other instances or browsers.) It hasn't annoyed me enough (yet!) to look into it, but since you mentioned it, I wanted to chime in and say it's not just you.
Edit: I saw this last night as I was falling asleep and didn't reply then, and when I went looking for the post this morning to respond, I found one by another user on another instance with the same problem.
Since I returned from my visit, I have been trying to place my experiences there into a larger context. The reality on the ground is so devastating, and the future appears so bleak, that I have allowed myself to indulge in some counter-factual history and to entertain some hopeful speculations about a different future. I ask myself, what would have happened had the newly created state of Israel fulfilled its commitment to enact a constitution based on its Declaration of Independence? That same declaration which stated that Israel “will be based on freedom, justice and peace as envisaged by the prophets of Israel; it will ensure complete equality of social and political rights to all its inhabitants irrespective of religion, race or sex; it will guarantee freedom of religion, conscience, language, education and culture; it will safeguard the Holy Places of all religions; and it will be faithful to the principles of the Charter of the United Nations”.
this was a devastating read
I have absolutely no hope for them. But, they are trying some new things - my husband and I both got text messages last week from them asking us if we'd consider running for local office.
I think anybody over 40 playing rock on stage is cringey
did you know that in addition to continuing hobbies and pastimes they did as a young person, sometimes old people fuck??
:the-more-you-know:
Behold the House of Waffles
The deathless diner nesting in dreams
Turn your back to the horrors, House, House
Turn your front to me, House, House
Yes, and you get your official golden DARE card!
For real though, prom can be an exclusionary, torturous experience, especially for kids who aren't cisgender, heterosexual, white, neurotypical, able-bodied, or financially comfortable. In very conservative areas, the rules around who can attend often include stipulations that dates must be opposite genders, and the dress code requires assigned-gender conformation. It's not unusual for prom to be held at a country club or other establishment with an exclusionary, bigoted past.
Anti-Prom is an effort to make something fun for the kids that those proms leave behind.
I did not understand orgasms or realize I wasn't having them with my partners until I finally did have one. 😂 I genuinely didn't understand that it could feel that good until it did.
Another win for abstinence-based sex ed in rural America!
That is hilarious!
lol no it can't
It's really, really, really going to suck to lose that resource when troubleshooting weird hardware and software issues, but that seems inevitable at this point. He really seems to be trying to figure out the stupidest way to kill the utility of the site in the name of profit.
I have taken responsibility already before the Colorado bar, who censured me
Is that all, or is it just a necessary step on the way to disbarment?
Sorry if it came across like I was implying that you should have commented there first – that was definitely not my intention! I actually considered making a post on my instance about it too, because I know some people primarily browse local stuff and would likely miss a post from another instance.
I just wanted to let you know it wasn't just you and maybe encourage you to comment there, too, in the hope that more of us mentioning in each post that we're having this problem might help lead to clues and a fix. 🙂
