I suspect what you’re finding is that the kind of men who make amorous advances aren’t the kind of men you’re interested in, and the kind of men you’re interested in don’t make amorous advances. Have you tried amorously approaching a man who you’re interested in?
I definitely think your own instance is the right move here, and you can post whatever you want to your own instance. I don’t want you to hear me saying “you shouldn’t do this,” but instead hear me saying “please don’t be offended when you find your efforts are not well received.”
I’ll just post a link to the Wikipedia article on soaking and leave it at that.
I tried setting up a bot to auto-post from an rss feed for sports stuff a few years back, and it made a lot of people very unhappy and got my bot banned pretty quick. Nocturne is right— there honestly just isn’t demand for bot-posted content; people would rather nothing than automated posting 🤷♂️

I’m also aphantasiac and similarly have no idea what this question could possibly mean.
I would miss you if you were gone.
Mostly enforcement. Many repositories have put anti-AI licenses on their code, but much like LLM companies violations of copyright law, it’s really difficult to prove they’re pulling the repositories and using them for training. Notoriously, FOSS projects don’t have a lot of money lying around to hire legal teams to go on fishing expeditions in a lengthy discovery process on the hopes someone was dumb enough to admit it in writing.
Not very. There are a lot more “this could turn into a pandemic” incidents that don’t turn into pandemics than those that do.
We’ve made it a decade, I think you’ll find us more resilient than you expect.
I think you’ll find most instance owners unwilling to pay for bot armies to swarm their instances.
Mastodon, Misskey, Loops, Pixelfed, Bookwyrm, Funkwhale, Peertube, Friendica, Hubzilla, Pleroma, and obviously PieFed
even though it’s rare in my location…Is there real support for those couples?
It’s kinda lame how few black folks there are in the pnw generally. I support the hell outta y’all; do whatever makes you happy.
“The Jews could have prevented the holocaust if they’d just played devil’s advocate a little harder” is one of the most morally reprehensible takes I’ve ever seen in an online space, and one I simply cannot believe anyone can make in good faith.
Oh no, sorry, I didn’t mean to claim credit. I meant you and I are posting here on fedi so we should promote their fedi account. I edited my comment to clarify; thanks!
Then you know better than most that there is enough darkness in this world, and no need for you to write more of it
Tromboner got more usage in my jr high/high school/college marching band, but trombinist was more common in my orchestra and jazz ensembles. Do with that information what you will.
edit: Also! We’re in the fediverse, so you gotta link to their fedi account: @rikergoogling@mas.to
I don’t mind people moving content from Reddit to the threadiverse. I do mind posting titles that claim authorship of a post when you are reposting someone else’s content. I am mildly opposed to including links to the original reddit post when reposting from reddit, but I wouldn’t ask a mod to enforce that preference cuz you’ve got stuff to do. Just my two cents; it’s whatever the community wants and you’re willing to do.
For those of you outside the Seattle area, this is a reaction to an ongoing feud between the residents of Laurelhurst, and Seattle Children’s Hospital, who claim that residents’ noise complaints about children being helicoptered in to the hospital are adversely impacting health outcomes: https://www.king5.com/article/news/local/seattle-childrens-laurelhurst-noise-concerns-burdens-lifesaving-care/281-6137dafc-308c-4cbe-9722-dc1a0ef6b4c2
It’s just how far the actual neighborhood of Laurelhurst is from Lake Washington – it borders the lake and is about a mile across. The neighborhood is known for housing super rich people who can afford lakefront property in Seattle.
