I browse by new, so I often see the spam advertising and bad faith garbage (Logic_&_Ethics anyone?) so I just block liberally

I literally don’t know what I’m missing

ETA: I also don’t have a language set, so if I see a foreign language community with no English posts or comments I’ll just block it

I thought reading The Grapes of Wrath was like watching Requiem for a Dream - I’m glad I did it once, and I will never do it again

I love that the best example they can find is a couple who spend only 140 days a year in France, despite the rules allowing 160 days a year. They obviously only go there for particular seasons: They’re not residents, they’re tourists

They’re also not actually prevented from continuing to do it, and despite how important this is said to be to them, it was just “too much hassle”

SOHCAHTOA and a calculator have been real useful for that too
