        It’s obviously the real actress. Who else would it be? Do you think someone on the internet would just pick that name to use if it isn’t theirs?

        She’s a top NSA spy. Learnt the ropes while shooting the Barbie movie, which was actually a front for a vast police operation to capture the hobbits. Apparently, they live in Barbieland.

        The account doesn’t really act like someone pretending to be an actor, and whoever runs it was mainly posting during the SAG strike when she would have had more free time. So I want to believe it’s her, because she replied to one of my posts and that was pretty cool.

          She responded to me a few times. Mostly because I was messing with her. I don’t think it’s really her. But she’s a good sport about the whole thing.

            100%. I was there from the original airing of the pilot episode through the last 22 years of multi-year breaks between seasons.

            LOL a couple years ago one of my closest friends who happens to be about the furthest away from me of any of them. Shot me a message asking me to guess who they were having lunch with. I had no idea. But it turned out that she had bumped into Lisa hammer and they had been hanging out a bit. They both live up in New York near the Bronx. I may have gotten some signed Triana swag out of the deal LOL

              I started during season 1 with my best friend at the time. It took me a bit to get into it, but once I was, I started back from the beginning and then it just got better every season.

              Trina episodes are great. The one with the double date is one of the best. The whole set of bathroom scenes are so hilarious!

                Yes would have been interesting to see if Tirana’s character got a little more development had Lisa and Doc not split. But she seems to be doing well and is enjoying her work in film out there in New York. So it’s all good.

                But yes the rogues gallery on that show was always one of my favorites personally. The Thin White Duke as the sovereign complete with a Klaus Nomi/Iggy pop cameo in the second season finale I think it was? And all the other absurd villains and heroes they just shucked out left and right. Not to mention 21 absurd story arc.

        Love you @Rolando@lemmy.world, but I spazzed out recently after a full year of pressing too hard for a ‘post per day,’ and I feel like I dishonored everyone here when I melted down recently. (I’m super-embarrassed)

        So I appreciate the mention, but regardless of how I embarrassed the community, I can’t aim for one scholarly post per day, anymore. I just can’t. Sorry about that, matey.

        Now I do plan to keep on posting as the mood seeks me, but I just CAN’T keep the community popular like this, all on my own. Even just a little bit of help would go far.

        Ugh, sorry for all the bitching and moaning. :S

          Don’t worry about it fam. Lemmy isn’t like a news broadcast, it’s more like a family dinner, it’s OK to go off on a rant every once in a while. And there’s no obligation to post every day, just post when you feel like it and where you feel like it. The fact is, you posted quality content a lot for a long time, and that’s commendable.

          2 units (in this case houses) down and 2 across (a perhaps intentional misinterpretation of the original slightly ambiguous statement). Reasonable to assume down and across are perpendicular directions. Let’s pretend space-time is Euclidean. How far away is the listener from the sneeze? Pythagoras, our faithful companion, guides our understanding…√(2²+2²)=√8=2√2

      probably not a real squid though

      I am currently visiting some friends I’ve been talking to on a forum for years but have never met. We’ve all been really close despite that. It’s sort of a three-day forum party and it’s been amazing.

      Why do I bring this up?

      I needed a shirt to wear for the first day so I didn’t have to keep telling people who I was and I found the perfect shirt. (Excuse the crease, I took the picture the day after.)

      Edit: are the downvoters disillusioned by the revelation of my false endoskeleton?

      I’ve seen them a lot as well, but personally in my interactions, I’ve found them to be abrasive, narrow minded, and eager to take things personally. Lowkey don’t mind that, it’s not the internet if everyone is some polite bland npc.

            Where exactly did you have to ban me from? Because I just looked at your post history and I’m not banned in any of the communities where you post.

            Strangely, for me being a dude with serious issues, you aren’t worried about posting regularly in the communities I moderate.

                He also uses the fact that he is a mod to bully people. He just holds it over the conversation at times to force it to go the way he wants.

                I don’t exactly make it a secret that I moderate World News or Lemmy Shitpost, where they have posted multiple times. Including in reply to me. The big red M next to my name makes it kind of hard to miss.

                And that still doesn’t tell me where they supposedly banned me from.

          No. You asked a deliberatly transphobic question, to define a REAL women (implying some women are not real). Then banned me because I refused to fall for your trick.

            This would be a lot more believable if you didn’t make a post earlier today suggesting Biden is a pedophile and didn’t have a bunch of deleted antivaxxer posts in the modlogs (and one suggesting the live broadcast of the moon landing was fake).

              I thought the charge was being transphobic?

              All the other examples listed are highlight faulty logic, not expressing an opinion.

              Saying A does not imply B.

              In our particular case, saying a governing body should clarifying it’s classification rules to avoid future incidents does not imply hate towards any particular person or group of people.

                  You are being overly antagonistic and seem unreasonably attached to labeling me as right wing.

                  You post too often and inaccurately for conversations like this not to occur again. I’ve already corrected your posts twice today and further interactions could be mistaken for a grudge.

                  I don’t like blocking people because I’m here to hear a variety of opinions, but it’s probably better for everyone if I do so.

                  As a parting thought, I’ll leave you with the definition of a bigot and let you reflect.

                  A person who is obstinately or unreasonably attached to a belief, opinion, or faction, especially one who is prejudiced against or antagonistic towards a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular group.

        I’ve had good and bad interactions with them, so I just think “hey they are flawed (hopefully) human beings that have good days and bad days”. Chances are if I treat them (or anyone) kindly, the interaction will be positive.

        My goal online is to try and be a wholesome user, although that doesn’t always happen. I usually delete my comments when I don’t like how I acted with someone else as I want to remind myself to take a kinder approach to Lemmy. There’s enough toxicity online.
