Well you’d be the expert on the best punishment for that cunt for sure

Yup. Granted it was after I begged for money because I was going to be homeless and pants shittingly terrifying. And not something I ever want to do again because I felt so so so guilty. I used every cent to everything necessary. Hell someone was like “Get a treat!” and I was like “Fuck that. Bills.” but also mostly because I couldn’t stomach the idea of spending the money on anything other than what was strictly necessary because I hated myself as is

So paid but… with fine print I should have read lol

Posting to Lemmy lol

And proud of it <3

Well get ready to start laughing…

I do want to clarify, I did not request this and the only way I saw this was via that screenshot. I am so sorry lol

(It should be undone by the way)

Nah I get it and can relate to that too actually. Still just wanted to apologize for my part in making you feel that way. I love you man <3

If therapy were an option, I would have taken it by now. Unfortunately, such things are not available to me. At least, not therapists that are willing to take me on. Primarily due to the fact that I have had therapists in the past openly say that they are not qualified to handle my case. So I’ve just given up. Some people just aren’t meant to be happy. So now I guide others to a treasure I may never possess.

Anyway, time for WILTY and sleep. Have a good night.

I wanted to be a journalist as a kid and then wanted to be a news anchor. Might explain a whole lot about my voice and writing style now, huh? lol

But thank you <3

Brilliant. Thanks very much for the confirmation. I was just about to start searching the matrix just in case.

Sorry, my comment was very unclear if that’s how you’re taking that.

When I said one of the many reasons I meant that I have a literal laundry list of reasons that I’ve permanently sworn off romantic entanglements so that I don’t cause emotional grief for other people as well as causing the emotional grief for myself. Like I don’t want to get into a relationship because I have so much baggage that I’m having a difficulty dealing with on my own. I don’t want to put that on someone else.

The ADHD portion is just that I am dealing with my ADHD very badly. If I’m dealing with it that badly on the surface then it will only compound further issues down the line for me.

I was speaking from a personal perspective, not as a universal truth or that it applies to anyone else but me. Genuinely sorry it came off other than how I intended.

Huh. That’s fucking odd. I just tested it on Piefed.world as well and same issue but on lemmy.world they do redirect correctly. Looks like Piefed might have some issue with that.

At any rate, I’ve updated the list in the post. A set of extra links that are using a thing called Lemmyverse which should allow you to set a home instance on the first click and it’ll redirect to your instances version of that post/user/community. Only need to set the home instance once and you can change it easily anytime.

One of the many reasons I have permanently sworn off any sort of romantic entanglement with anyone. I will die alone. Not everyone gets to be happy anyway so meh, I’m just accepting it early.

Its supposed to. Try this link.

And as sexy as he looks

I meant more Star Trek but fair enough lol

I need me some ample nacelles…

I really hope that didn’t come off like I was actively criticizing you or anything. That is not the thing that I was trying to do. I was more just making a terrible joke at my own expense. I am extremely glad that you were able to get out of that though. Considering I have also been in extremely similar circumstances, if not the same circumstances at the moment, then yeah, I can really appreciate actually being able to get out of that situation because it’s what I want to be able to do. So I have nothing but all of the love for you, my friend, that you were able to get there. No jealousy. I hope you have a great day.

Hey, you asked <3

but it sounds like they at least require a fairly high bar for gross violations, although this may qualify.

By the bars they laid out? He already has violated all of them. He clearly meets the standards needed for removal of a community moderator. They said that he needs to have commited gross violations of the TOS but he has and they’ve been documented for months.

but I would think it’s not an admin’s job to judge a mod as unworthy of running their community unless they do something egregious enough to warrant an instance ban.~~

He has literally been instance banned from other instances because he violates their TOS. LW won’t apply the same enforcement despite the fact that he violates their own TOS.

So in Canada we use different political terms than the Americans do. One of these is usage of the word ‘Government’. In the US, Government applies to the whole general moving structure of the United States. In Canada the word Government applies to the ruling party specifically in much the same way that Americans use the word ‘Administration’. Jordan was not aware of this.

A user commented that a particular person was not a Member of Government, referring to the fact that they were not in the party that currently forms the Government of Canada. Jordan Lund removed this as ‘Misinformation’, claiming that the particular person was an elected member of parliament so calling them not a member of government was flat out misinformation. Important point to note is this was on the World News community. An American with incomplete information about something removed a comment under the guise of misinformation that was about another country. Personally? This is kind of annoying. But it dropped into rage inducing territory when he repeatedly doubled down.

The comment removed:

Unfortunately, this guy isn’t even a member of the government. He’s a backbencher in our third biggest political party. OK enough guy as far as I know, people in the NDP usually are, but he’s basically a nobody. Calling him a “lawmaker” is about as generous as they could get.

Even through context alone it should have been made clear how the word government was being used but Jordan was either incapable of grasping that or refused to. He was called out on it and doubled down on his stance. Multiple users educated him on the subject but he refused to engage with anything that proved him wrong (this is a continuous problem of his). Months later he said the same thing again. Again, multiple users proved him wrong. Once again, he refused to engage.

A couple of weeks ago, I made a rather large post that detailed numerous things that he has done. Like a ton. In the comments, someone brought up the Canadian thing again to an admin of LW named MrKaplan. Kaplan said

[…] we have already discussed topics like the Canadian politics one with him in the past, as we also don’t consider it acceptable what he did back then. Source

3 hours later, Jordan again doubled down.

They doubled down, with the idea that even though they are elected and can vote, they don’t count as a member of government because they aren’t part of the ruling party. Which is utter and complete nonsense. They are getting a government paycheck, they are a “member of government.” Source

Small sidebar but the Wikipedia page for the Government of Canada says this:

Under Canada’s Westminster-style parliamentary democracy, the terms government and Government of Canada refer specifically to the prime minister, Cabinet, and other members of the governing party inside the House of Commons, but typically includes the federal public service and federal departments and agencies when used elsewhere.[7] This differs from the United States, where the executive branch is referred to as an administration and the federal government encompasses executive, legislative, and judicial powers, similar to the Canadian Crown. Source

In that moment Jordan proved one of two things. Either that the admins had never actually talked about the issue to him or (more likely) that he did not believe that he did anything wrong so he ignored anything that was told to him.

He does not accept differing information than that of what he believes, he moderates through an American lens and refuses to take the differences of other countries into account and he repeatedly doubles down on an inaccurate retelling of events as well as an inaccurate definition of the term Government inside of Canada. Doubling down even when an admin publicly says he’s wrong.

This single event alone proves that he is incapable of impartial moderation of /c/World and needs to be immediately removed. Months of this going on and months of this insisting he’s correct while admins publicly say he isn’t. It was this specific inaction by the Admins of Lemmy.world that caused me to move off of the instance. I couldn’t tolerate them willfully accepting American misinformation about Canadian politics being pushed on a WorldNews community. This entire release saying that they’re going to look into things and then decide is, frankly, a joke. He was publicly contradicting something the Admins privately told him and doing the thing they told him not to. They have the ammo they need to from just this one moment stretched over the course of months.

He won’t listen to them and follow the basic rules they laid out yet they will not remove him while he actively violates the TOS of Lemmy.world. At that point there is no justification for the inaction of Admins. Absolutely none. I grant time needed to review, sure, but it’s been essentially 2 weeks since I made that post public in which they said they were already reviewing his behavior for days. Half of a month is not needed for this decision and I can’t stomach this any longer.

Accurate. As I routinely make 10 asses of myself, I have some to spare
