Content Creators are Toxic for the parasocial aspect it sends mixed signals to people who probably don’t know better, but it really isn’t the creators fault but like it isn’t said enough I feel like. But I also think sex work is real work. Big brain.
BigBallBellyGirl:
Agreed! I'd say that content creation is absolutely valid entrepreneurship, and I certainly respect people who are able to make it profitable. I think the danger is when people assume everyone on the site wants to put out content and is somehow not participating appropriately in the community if they are not doing so. As fat people, we don't exist for others' gratification. We exist as whole humans, all by ourselves, with the right to be active here and in any other space we choose in whatever way we choose.
I think people, especially in America but in other places too, are much more selfish and much more... stupid, than that (i have a theory of stupidity but its gonna be too much to write it here), and i mean that litteraly. Not to offend, these are just the words that describe what im trying to say. From their point of view they see they cant find a partner the way they expect or desire to. They then indentify this as a problem. Instantly, the ideological narative of individualism kicks in and puts it as "Its either my fault or their fault" which might already be false, and of course entitled people almost always automatically assume that "its not my fault" without ever giving it proper thought. And then they are angry at other individuals, like being mad at someone will fix any problem.
Also, one question i have about what you write, what is "valid enterprenuership"? Is there a kind of enterprenuership that is not valid?

I think it’s crazy how many weak willed followers exist today to jump on a train and condemn a man you don’t even know because someone else dislikes what he says.
You also go on to make assumptions and categorize the man based on what you believe. You don’t know me.
But you will defend a group of people exploiting others for money in this community.
This is the state of the world today. Too many sheeple.
I didnt condem you. Im just saying youre wrong. If you accept that, you can then start trying to figure out how to become a better person. I wish for that.
Look, for example an other mistake i see you do, you communicate your points (weak willed followers exist today, i make assumtions about a person i dont now, and so on) but you dont provide, either an explenation of what you're talking about down to the specific, instead of generalizing, and you also provide no argumentation. Yes, i made assumtions about a person i dont know. That doesnt automatically mean that my assumtions are wrong! In your reply you didnt even said that im wrong! Which would be the usefull thing to do, because i would then know if i am right or wrong on my assumption. With what youve said so far i dont!

Yeah, these money whores usually end up with a lot of regrets. I’m honestly tired of encountering them.
Thats a bit like being mad at the minimum wage cashier for not doing his job fast enough, instead of the milionare who owns the store and employs only 1 cashier...
My point is... Youre barking up the wrong tree. You hate comodification but you dumb shit, not on the capitalist dynamics that are the cause of it, but some people who may simply try to survive.
Yes, its annoying to find what you need (and after that, what you desire) behind a pay wall. But thats the "free market capitalism" people like you (Im guessing) often cheerlead for!
Have some understanding for your fellow human beings, dont be such an egotistic person!

If you look through the threads what happens is pretty obvious, and it’s not hard to figure out what occurs. Someone goes off the goop and says something insensitive they get called on it then rather than owning up to it and saying I messed up they double down and it spirals from there.
I just like to clown people I made a sarcastic mocking statement and a dude took that to go on a little dark age tik tok edit about how the west was falling nonsense. asking people to be decent human beings is to much sometimes
That, ironically, is a self fulfilling prophecy!! O.o

It seems that on many, if not most ocasions, the site fails to display comments on pictures, videos (and maybe stories, i will assume).
For example, many of the comments i do, i cannot see them. (that happens more often than not) and also, i can see a few comments on my pictures for example, when im scrolling through my activity, but if i click on the pictures themselves, the comment section apears empty! (with the typical *no comments* message)
Also, second idea that came to mind... Could there be a way to make code contributions, but for this to be fair, in a way that FF as a company operates as a democratic worker-owned cooperative? I really think that there would be lots of imorovements, and very quickly, if that was the case! Because its a really big thing to be just one person's side project.
Letters And Numbers:
Users can hide individual comments made on their pics/stories. Do you think people don’t want your comments on their stuff and they’re hiding them?
When this happens its immediate, even when the user is inactive, so that possibility, for the most part at least, can be ruled out! (i also never delete comments from my content yet still cant see comments often!)

So, the most fattening Jewish holiday has started and it’s time for me to eat as much as possible doughnuts with clear goal to become bigger and fatter, like a doughnut.
There is so much fattening food that will help gain so much weight in only eight days — what do you say?
No wonder people are gaining weight mostly in winter with all these holidays like Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas and New Year celebrations…
Munchies:
Happy Festival of Lights!
Enas:
Also what is this festival of lights? Would you like to describe it? Im curious! O.o
Munchies:
Hanukkah. Hanukkah is the Festival of Lights.
Enas:
And what is Hanukkah? What happens during it?
Munchies:
Google is there, and it is free.
Why did you post on a Happy Hanukkah thread if you don't even know what it is?
You're looking at it from the wrong way! I didnt comment on a post about Hanukkah! (even tho thats exactly the title) I commented on a post about the gaining that happens in it!
And i certainly know something about gaining!
