How do I make a community for memes that add nothing to the existing joke? Like /c/yourjokebutheresafuckingmeme

I have a handful of redundant accounts because instances keep fucking up or disappearing completely.

One that disappeared (vlemmy, which seems to have lost its DNS registration).

Rawls’ A Theory of Justice is extraordinary. He does not contend that there is a means to avoid inequality or disproportionate assets. He effectively acknowledges that in any system, there will be those who hold more resources than they deserve and those who hold fewer.

Instead, Rawls sets forth a standard for measuring any political and economic system: how well off is the person in the worst situation within it? If you assume any of us could be born into any role within society, maximizing the life of the most unfortunate is in our best interest. We may be lucky enough to be born into more fortunate circumstances, which will be individually great. But we want to make certain that, if we draw the shortest straw, it is not a position of torture and slavery.

Rawls’ “maximize the minimum” ideology set up my worldview since I read it a few decades ago.

Or the flip side, for the hacking of Lemmy world to expose the data of every user of every other instance.

St Jude’s is a charity hospital that does not charge patients or their families. They accept insurance payments only and the rest is covered as charity.

The fact that it says “Close in 3590s” - or an hour long popup - suggests it is fake.

I don’t see it mentioned in the release notes, but I can confirm Memmy now downloads images to share them directly instead of sending a link.

Fuck yeah, thank you!
