oh hey, possibly interesting new social space, let's see what's going on here!
*starts reading*
*immediately has instinctive urge to make popcorn*
*closes screen, backs away slowly*
ooooooooookay then. :D
@literorrery there was talk about a Certain Discord Server/Channel/whatever those things are called a few days ago... I can DM you in Birdspace if you really want to go look. XD
@green I'm trying to wean myself off of birbhell, but I appreciate the offer. I don't really need to go touring anybody else's cultural zones like that. it's bad form.
Honestly, I'm just still rolling from last night being high on empathy (and XJ13) watching Worst Cooks in America, and this morning trying to resume that sober and realizing just how exploitative it is.
@literorrery yeah, I'm pretty much just using Birdspace for 1. DMs (do DMs work here?? if so howwwww) 2. newsglimpses 3. occasional doses of "I need something to read, OKAY THAT'S ENOUGH".
there's one online space I now visit solely and exclusively when I want to feel schadenfreude. it's a painfully rich vein to mine, so I rarely go there these days. :P
@green DMs here are "click the world icon" and look for "direct: post to listed members only."
@Oneironott pretty sure I was just getting an... unflattering first impression of that community, but I'm still going to back off and watch it carefully for a while before jumping in. I pay attention to the "popcorn instinct"--it's usually a pretty good guide. XD
@green yeah, okay i gotcha. I havn't been paying much mind, so i dont have a strong opinion yet
@Oneironott *nod* I'll be keeping an eye on it--if it was just a one-time thing, that's fine. if it's an ongoing thing... not my bag. <3
@green Where is this? I haven't had my dose of atrocity tourism yet today.
