Yes, I understood the joke…

For the parents, I assume?

Personally I think @WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.com’s take is a bit prescriptive, but I do think that if you want a good long-term relationship, then it’s about finding what’s comfortable for both of you, not just for one of you. Boundary pushing can be OK, but usually only with prior consent or better some expression of desire… If either one of you pushes the other into doing something the other doesn’t really want, that’s probably not gonna pan out well in the long run. Listening (especially to the “why” part) and working together is important.

Is there any situation for which a fart is not a perfect metaphor?

Like, with the parents listening, or with them reciting it with you?

And/or (i suspect this is more likely) it will threaten to do so, and mastodon.social/.online will update their TOS to fix the problem identified in the bug report. Either way it’s a win for federation, in that migration is relatively painless for the user…

I’m also really appreciating the speed and depth of the response to this from the community (e.g. all the comments on the bug report). It’s cool to see!

edit: Also, Eugene’s response is reasonable and levelheaded - seems like there will be some TOS improvements eventually.

With that username, I trust this answer completely.

Hell yeah 😊

Where did it go?

The loose bit of skin on the outside of the elbow is called the weenus

Yes, you can.

Nice.

Instances are websites. Federation just means that they can automatically communicate directly between multiple intakes, and share information without requiring user interaction.

All this happens via APIs. Any website that implements ActivityPub APIs properly can federate with other sites as part of the fediverse.

Good point

I wasn’t suggesting anything was black and white. I was just giving an example of a chain of thought. OP is free to come up with their own chains of thought.

What, like backwards?

I think with some things (like reading or skydiving), there are pretty fast feedback loops that tell you if you’re doing it wrong.

Why?

I live on the east coast of Australia, so I guess I’m a pacificist and didn’t even know it.

This is good, but I’d add that you can get closer, and you can get closer faster, but truth will always be over the horizon.

Suggesting therapy (or any course of action) for someone based on a couple of lines the posted on the internet seems a bit hasty. You know barely anything about them. AND you’re making umsupported assumptions (they said nothing about their own sexuality).
