Been to the blood bank yesterday to donate blood. Quick test showed I could not donate this time. Iron was at 134 but must be 135 or above to donate. It's probably due to surgery I had last month, and now i've been advised to wait 6 months. Somehow It makes me feel a bit sad and guilty.

Wow, that's pretty fucking ignorant.

Doesn't change that what you are saying is ignorant.

[-] Carrots@quokk.au 1 points 20 hours ago

But your opinion of my ignorance is subjective, and from where I’m standing, you look like the ignorant one.

[-] JigglySackles@lemmy.world 1 points 19 hours ago

Your earlier opinion is factually false. You continue to assert it is true. That's objectively ignorant.

I'm going to assume it is willful ignorance because I'd like to think someone in an often maligned group, such as LGBTQ+ would know what it's like to be wrongfully lumped into a group you don't belong to, with attributes and values you do not carry.

You lumping every American as the same is no better than what racists do, what bigots do, what ICE does, what Zionists push, or what magats spew. If that's truly what you are and how you think, then you are being exactly what you accuse all Americans of being.

Yawn, angry because your country is falling apart so you yell at people who want to make the world better. Such smart amerikkkans

Midterms are less than a month away. Prove me wrong.

Do tell how you being condescending and hateful makes the world better.

[-] Carrots@quokk.au 1 points 14 hours ago

If you can’t see the message, the message isn’t for you.

[-] JigglySackles@lemmy.world 1 points 13 hours ago

Whatever you have to tell yourself.

Be sure to vote next month. Last chance.

An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.
