Oooooooooh, you mean like in 2001 when I was dating my first ever black girl. I was talking about how you never have breakfast foods for dinner. And she asked if I wanted chicken and waffles. I had never heard of such a dish together. I thought she was asking for two different meals, and it was weird to phrase it like that. After some back and forth, she assured me you take fried chicken, serve it WITH waffles, and cover the whole thing in maple syrup. I thought she was pranking me. So I went over, and googled it. I was suuuuure she was messing with me. Nope. It's a real thing people in the south do. I'm from Ohio. So was she, but she has family in Atlanta. I was just......why? Just why would anyone mix those foods? Still to this day I don't want it.
Then, after it had been well established that chicken and waffles was a thing, she asked "Have you ever heard of chitlins?"
I had not. Ignorance is bliss.
Yes something like the first thing popping in your mind when it comes to being blissfully unaware of the struggle of racism being tying together a black partner and fried chicken.

Yep! Took two tries as well. I got banned from one because literally my second comment pissed off the mod! Im already loving Lemmy.
-
But not .world or .ml? I got an account in both and I didn’t know those places were disliked until I started getting automatic bans only for being in those instances.
Having to read through the entire lore of lemmy and get informed on all the instances and relationships between them seems like a nightmare. You make an account on one instances then after few days you get told that your instance is literally satan and you should switch to a different one. It's like with Linux distros. No mater which one you pick, you chose wrong.
I am on .world and honestly I don't care that much.
It's defederated from the places I don't wanna see, and I mostly look through the All feed, not the local one.

Drag has a friend who got instance banned on first comment lmao
Lol!
Yeah it's a bit the wild west here, you can say fuck and post about whatever you want, but there are also some intricate rules on some servers/communities but peopke are mostly very helpful. This place IMO is absolutely fantastic.

Nicole the Polish girl from Toronto is my fediverse girlfriend, damnit. Get your own.
"The fediverse chick!"
-
My advice to newbies is to just sign up for whatever, then change later if ya need to. I think I tried 2 other instances before i found the one that fit best for me
Lemmy is very much lacking an account migration feature.
-
A lot of people are.

I see thank you
lemm.ee is a good general instance with access to c/piracy.
-
Im new to Lemmy too. Happy to be here.
Welcome!
-
Besides smaller complaints (every instance has their issues). .world has gotten too large. Many people have suggested that it close its doors for now so other instances can catch up.
-
I am very much aware

Sneeze

Congrats to all lemming pirates !
One less finger, or one extra finger?
-
Makes me smile to see people recognizing me outside of my Screenshot posts. I didn’t realize that I was known outside of the gaming community I post in though lol
-
What instance did you go to then? I don't keep up on "the best" instances, or those that defederate or block certain things. I was part of kbin.social at first, then moved to .world.

Good question. I don't know how many fingers a lemming has neither do I know how many a mouse has. I use a mouse in the prompt as @[email protected] does not know what animal is a lemming.
