Are we so certain that it is not a toilet paper roll? :-P

Let’s see what is left to cover…

You guys have whole entire inches from the wall to spare?

Indeed, I find that if we don’t take care of ourselves, we become a burden to others and can’t help anyone, so that’s so important to remember (that if we want to help “others”, it has to start with ourselves).

Wait… you guys have bathrooms?!

*I* do not, and if there’s one, then surely there’s more like me? :-P

Moreover, I think it’s impressive that you have dedicated so much of your efforts to improving people’s experiences here on the Fediverse. Even if people disagree with you on some point - which for myself I am aware of nothing but even if there were - that would still be true. You probably don’t get thanked often, so I offer it, and I hope that you will accept.

But also, I hope that you find a way to show kindness to yourself too:-). Our families may have royally fucked us up for life, but we can do different, for ourselves! Or at least, I very much (desperately) hope that can be true.

Oh man, some written phrases you can just hear!

Reminds me of this one:

Is this the new “Honey Badger Don’t Care” meme?

he wouldn’t get this concept

Emphasis on the would not, as distinguished from can not, it is refuses to.

Some people listen, others exclusively talk. Thank you for being part of the former:-).

iirc, we did legislate it. Surprise: Trump un-legislated it, and even before that Congress de-funded it.

Google’s response:

I feel like you will appreciate it when I say that this song was crap-tastic!:-)

Listen here young’un, back in my day the only thing that would randomly fall from the sky was bird poop - and we liked it that way!

What I replied to though said this:

That’s not really a tag though, you’d have the same search result just searching for “school”, right?

So it seems relevant to me that the search results are not identical?

Beyond that, it would find many more instances if people started using it, ofc, but the manner in which people use it may still facilitate easier searching - e.g. instead of casually bantering around with “school”, “college”, “education”, “edumacashiun”, if you knew that a specific term was used like “#school”, then you could still find it easier.

Anyway, I am not here to defend using hashtags - I have no skin in that game and truly don’t care one way or another. I just did not want OP to feel attacked like we are a bunch of Karens asking to speak to the manager about their choice of language:-P. Lemmy has little enough content as it is - we want moar content creators, not to turn away people offering us free stuff to distract us from the pain of existence enjoy!?:-)

I normally despise animated gifs - bc THEY NEVER F-ING STOP!! (seriously, how difficult would it be for the browser to allow it to play 3-5 times and then auto-pause it!?) - but in this one case I will make an exception:

Having just tried it, no. There are many instances of the word “school”, but I only saw a single one with “#school”.

I often want to use the search to find things, but cannot due to the deluge of irrelevant crap. Also the terms seem broken in that while some work 100% of the time, others 100% of the time fail to function as stated - e.g. asking for “all” results from the last “top 6 hours” ago returns MANY comments from 10 months in the past, though no posts prior to 6 hours ago, so it functions only halfway i.e. it does not work at all if my aim was to find a particular thing.

So if OP wants to use hashtags, and they help, why try to restrict them? We are supposed to be the welcoming Fediverse here!!? :-)

Those eyes though…

We can do more! Maybe… significantly lower the resolution, while keeping the image the same size?

Also, image search found this completely unrelated gem: link

While not automated, typing those terms into the search bar does function to retrieve posts with those hashtag terms. So OP is not confused - rather, they are taking us all #backtoschool:-).
