I 100% thought the thumbnail was two people arguing over Poo! or Peww! and was really confused… it’s pool, so that’s alright then.
you know where I am…

Based on the first 3-4 pages of your profile, it actually looks like you’ve had a couple of different accounts downvoting everything for a week or so at a time. If it’s all the same person, then banning one account isn’t going to fix your problem, they’ll just make a new one and continue. Why not just make a new account for yourself?
Also, this isn’t Reddit. Don’t upvote your own comments.
Do you live in LA? Of all the issues this area has, downtown where this tower is located isn’t the biggest concern…
oh my god you’re right. I need to go find my grouchy pants (they sit somewhere just below my chin) and get on that…
I would love to give off “old man yelling at clouds” energy. If I had a lawn, I’d yell at people to stay off it, but sometimes very quietly so I can eavesdrop on their drama.
I don’t see normie used online often, and OP was clear it was meant to be mildly insulting, along the lines of basic:
Oh, what’s a better word to describe someone who is super mainstream and only likes something if other people like it or they were told to like it?
Is it yelling at clouds to remind people to be nicer to each other?
This is a really important point people seem to be missing. SCOTUS has only temporarily blocked the deal until they hear arguments in the case. Given what we now know about some of the justices, I wouldn’t hold my breath that rich people will be held accountable.
Aglets. Can’t remember where I learned the word.
It’s fine, they’re phishing and hoping someone will bite. I got a version of this that listed a date and time they “hacked” me also. Too bad for the spammer they picked a day when the desktop was in the back of my car moving across the country! I got a few more over maybe 6 months? First in English, then Chinese, then Japanese…
Nothing will happen. Just delete it and forget about it.
You can never interact negatively with their decisions or thoughts. Downvotes disabled. Admin literally removing any opposing view while keeping positive ones.
I don’t disagree that this is concerning coming from an instance admin. But on the other hand, I can kinda understand where it might be coming from. The admin is a trans woman, and as such I’m sure she deals with enough shit IRL/online with people questioning her very right to exist. I bet anyone would get tired of making space for opposing opinions when frequently those opinions are hateful and dangerous and directed at one’s validity as a human being. I imagine she’s out of fucks all around now and acting accordingly, even in a circumstance that might call for more nuance. I can have empathy for that.
No opinion on the NSFW issue since I don’t want to interact with that content. Just wanted to gently remind that we’re all just people doing our best here.
I recommend the book Range, by David Epstein. It makes the point that people can be more successful when they bring different skills and backgrounds to a task or job than if they only narrowly focus on one area their whole career. It’s got lots of examples, discusses what kind of environments reward narrow vs broad range, etc., and overall is a strong endorsement of career hopping.
Life is short. If you’re not happy with what you’re doing, you should make a change.
