For the unaware, some people use “map” as an acronym for “minor-attracted person”. Which is an extremely weird thing to build your identity upon imho. Just get therapy or whatever, I won’t judge you if you don’t abuse another person, but why would anyone grow attached to a personal leaning that will only bring pain upon themselves or others?

Already mentioned below, but for better visibility: !world@lemmy.world has better moderation.

The Simpsons started as a parody of the (back then) dominant family sitcom that reinforced traditional values, where the family is led by a wise man who maintains the family and everyone else follows along in a traditional patriarchal hierarchy. Once that era got buried and they swallowed the thing they were mocking, The Simpsons slowly became self-referential, which made it a much harder show to write.

Realistically? The EU set up their own Mastodon server two years ago. Of course it’s realistic for the White House to do the same.

POTUS puts the ‘fed’ in ‘fediverse.’

Thanks I hate it.

Also too bad that the White House has joined Meta, specifically, rather than the decentralized Fediverse, but libs gonna lib.

That’s disgusting.
