Fun prank.

“How do you know they’re all booked? Maybe someone didn’t show up. Can you go check?”

Hehe, you could say that reply was done with much… celerity.

Linux machines don’t crash unexpectedly, because if they do, it’s your fault for configuring it wrong and you should have expected it.

Sir! Excuse me, sir!

Actually I was just being passive aggressive at you for the bit. But it’s totally understandable that you didn’t notice.

I like how you needed to demonstrate that you know what passive aggression is.

Fast food social media. Nice term there.

Anyways, I don’t see why this has to be a matter of high privilege vs. low privilege. There’s definitely a correlation, but depressed rich people and happy poor people aren’t uncommon. Also, not all questions of positivity vs. negativity are in contexts that relate to privilege. It could be about the direction of a media series, for example, which is where I’ve heard it misused.

Actually I would call that aggressive passive, because it’s very upfront and aggressive, but in a not actually very aggressive way.

Not tone deaf, just… doesn’t really make sense in context.

Every time I see the phrase “toxic positivity” my first instinct to contest it, because my first experiences with the phrase were a misapplication (that being positive is somehow toxic,) but so far on Lemmy, I’ve only seen it used in ways that make sense (the toxic expectation that others will be exclusively positive.)

Well, to be fair, “Why can’t websites just remember that I said no to cookies?”

Exactly as ordered. Good job, private.

I’ve been blocking political communities, so I don’t get so much of this. I would recommend you also block communities that annoy you. We’re in the same boat of browsing by top X hours.

Solarpunk doesn’t really bug me though because it’s (supposed to be) more about the good that could be rather than complaining about what is. (Don’t get me wrong, complaints can be valid, but that’s not what I come to Lemmy for.)

Way to ruin that guy’s Plague Inc run, man.

Yeah, I know. But “what does greek mythology say about using windows” would have been less funny.

If by that you mean connected my computer account to a Microsoft account, nope, I did no such thing.
