if you’re out there and your body sort of looks like this and you aren’t Elon Musk, know that your body is valid and normal

Where I’m from we call this hypocrisy.

I thought the people on the left were against body shaming.

Jokes aside, I made that account because I wanted to try how Lemmy would be like if I cleared my 1000 users long blocklist (that you were on too) and instead try using word filters to filter out individual toxic messages rather than blocking the whole user just because one of their messages grinded my gears.

On a side note. I went thru your post history a little and saw you defending southeners against the generalizations made about them and though you were being quite reasonable there, and probably heavily downvoted for it as is the case with Lemmy. This is exactly why I wanted to try alternative methods to blocking - it’s just too blunt of a tool.

Highly dependent on where one lives I guess. My friend just rented a new apartment and his rent is over double what my mortage payments are. That’s also money he is never getting back where as in my case my house is paid in about 15 years after which I own the damn thing and the monthly mortage payment drops off entirely. Excluding mortage, the montly cost of owning my house is 275€ which includes water and electricity.
