  • Famous enough that there’s a steady fan base listening to my music (a thousand people internationally sounds great to me) but nothing more than that. I want that genuine fandom, where people actually enjoy being in a niche and no one stalks you and generally people don’t know you wherever you go.

    Not even for the money, but just to feel appreciated and to know I have a positive impact on people, that’s all I want.

    If it’s only the two extremes? Yeah I’m totally cool with a quiet life.

    There’s plenty of people who want that sort of discussion on Lemmy.

    Btw there’s legit uses for the “dark web”. Getting crucial drugs that are illegal (e.g. opioids against PTSD, maybe even abortion drugs soon), communication channels for politically targeted people and more.

    And obviously especially when it is so co controversial, that is even more of a reason for a public discussion forum about it. Lemmy is all about different perspectives, so that fits perfectly.













  • Some additional information on that:

    Generally, depending on the country there’s laws for that.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_protocol

    Violating these laws can lead to varying degrees of fines and or prosecution, depending on the country and the type of country flag desecration (burning a flag is worse than getting the height of the flag on the pole wrong).

    Half mast is the more famous distress signal internationally.

    That said, Alito, even if not doing something illegal, is definitely signalling something very ominous. I agree with the experts that such an extreme degree of the appearance of impropriety is definitely gonna run afoul of supreme court ethics rules.

    But: no check of power means no executive power and that means a rule might as well be unwritten.
