    Tryna be active on local servers but so many of them require real names, face pics, social media before even having ACCESS to the server. Like gee, could I atleast see what I’m missing out on? Just so I don’t fall for a honey pot at the very least? I genuinely couldn’t join them because I don’t have social media, even if I did I wouldn’t post my face to them (pre-requisite are socials with face in them)

    Its very obvious they’re all made by extremely tech and privacy illiterate people.



  • Oh my god literally a day ago. No idea about it. Curious to see if they try to keep going, especially without any of the original team. It’s been over 23 years since it started, I feel like most of the audience has just grown up out of it to keep the same humour and style going. I still check in from time to time cause I loved it, I plan to binge the eddsworld beyond eddisodes, but the gags don’t hit like they used to, and can’t relate to it as much either.


  • Yeahhhh or that tord doesn’t want to be involved with the series anymore. On one hand, edd wanted the series to continue after his passing, so I’m grateful fans are still engaging with it, and Matt is keeping it going, but on the other hand it feels weird that we’re still making stories with someone who’s been dead for 14 years. Plus Tom is no longer involved, and makes me feel off that his own character, based on him, is no longer voiced, written, or has any involvement with him.

    I’m still grateful Matt is keeping it alive, but it’s sad to see it devolve to a shell of its former self, with the majority of the original crew, writers and animators gone.



  • Its weird and nasty to think about, until you think of it like a typical relationship. They have to have chemistry, they have to mesh well, and plus it feels gross to imagine 2 people you personally find unattractive banging.

    A lot of young gay men that initially think they were straight was because they imagined 2 old burly hairy dudes going at it, and got grossed out by it.

    Once you think of it as guys you’re age, similar situations, as the same “type” as women you like is usually when it starts to click for people who previously wouldn’t describe themselves as gay or bi.









  • What you mentioned was exactly what happened to me. I was literally a MINUTE walk from home and the button just WASNT doing anything, and the street was insanely busy. I was waiting for 30 MINUTES before I legit called my mom to drive like 300 feet to pick me up. It took 1 minute.

    I was scarred from walking much ever since.


  • Same. If I’m at home trying to sleep I will genuinely have a panic attack without it. It’s the only thing that strongly occupies my attention enough to prevent a panic attack from setting in (that I can do while in bed)

    Anything else is not personally engaging enough to prevent my mind from wandering (like listening to music, browsing Lemmy, or reading)


  • Anyone else feel really allienated when people act like it’s normal for women to have an anxious breakdown in the presence of, or interacting with a dude?

    I don’t want to downplay what some go through, or the trauma that people relive, but it’s not normal or healthy to be living in constant fear of the opposite sex.

    For all the guys who feel like their presence is an active threat to the women around them: just be normal. Be courteous, but don’t treat them higher, or lower, than anyone else you meet. Feels weird I have to say that
