I came over from a long-time lurker reddit account when Apollo shut down. I have really enjoyed my time here so far and I hope to contribute some fun content when I can.
That’s wild! At that point is the hobby flying or building/designing sim cockpits?
My mother started raising chickens and now I collect chicken memes to share with her. Strange days 🐓🦖

I was not excited for this show until seeing that trailer! Fingers crossed 🤞
Invincible Ignorance Fallacy maybe?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invincible_ignorance_fallacy
The invincible ignorance fallacy,[1] also known as argument by pigheadedness,[2] is a deductive fallacy of circularity where the person in question simply refuses to believe the argument, ignoring any evidence given. It is not so much a fallacious tactic in argument as it is a refusal to argue in the proper sense of the word. The method used in this fallacy is either to make assertions with no consideration of objections or to simply dismiss objections by calling them excuses, conjecture, etc. or saying that they are proof of nothing, all without actually demonstrating how the objection fit these terms. It is similar to the ad lapidem fallacy, in which the person rejects all the evidence and logic presented, without providing any evidence or logic that could lead to a different conclusion.
Red-herring refers to a deliberately misleading clue. Gish gallop might be closer, it’s when you make a bunch of claims at once to overwhelm your opponent without regard to the validity of the claims. It’s not quite willful ignorance either. Hmmm…
I love pedantic stuff like this so I’m pretty sure I will be thinking about this the rest of the day now… thanks lol

Ah man, not really out of the blue but sad to see him go. Fairytale of New York is still my favorite Xmas song. Sláinte!
I share names with a famous athlete and I used to get comments about it regularly. I would smile and just say I didn’t watch that sport. Mostly people would chuckle and move on.
Now it’s been awhile since that athlete has been pro so I hardly ever hear anyone make the connection. I’m good with it lol
I started a few communities and it’s hilarious to me which ones are doing well and which ones aren’t. I start a community about the popular tv show Survivor, zero interaction and a surprising amount of negativity and downvotes for some reason.
Then I have a joke one about doing household dishes and people seem to love it. I get interaction, other users posting content, lots of upvotes, and a few confused people wondering why the community even exists.
I generate most of the content on my communities but I keep the amount at a level I can handle daily without stress. Here’s to hoping for more original content from other community users soon :)
Same here. No regrets, loving lemmy.
