Your experience is way outside the norm. Usually it's very straightforward.

The prevelance of the "murder billionaires" mindset and other generally negative attitudes and suggested violent solutions to everything - even more often and more exaggerated than reddit - is probably gonna chase me off lemmy. It's everywhere here. Even blocking all the explicitly political communities isn't enough to keep it away. This platform has a lot of growing up to do, and I'm not sure if it's gonna do it.

Mastercard doesn't give a crap about weed, and aren't trying to control anything. They don't want to be a part of federally illegal transactions. They want to follow the law, because they're a big business and it's dangerous not to. This is simple a result of the fact that weed is federally illegal - any other move on mastercard's part would be irresponsible at this time.

Man, I can't even imagine wanting to bring my phone into the shower. "Just standing" there, alone with my thoughts, hot water relaxing muscles... Nothing needs me, I need nothing, the world is on hold until further notice. It's meditative: Everything ceases mattering, ceases even existing - to resume later, of course, but in the meantime, perfect, relaxed, complete solitude. It's perfect as it is. Music or videos or reading would ruin it. That's all outside stuff, the outside should not exist.

It never even occurred to me that people would bring phones into the shower to actually do things. Never even imagined that that was a thing. Learn something new every day.
