Oh for sure. Unless the other person has lied to you about it, getting into a relationship with someone who’s married with a new baby is not ok at all. It’s just the narrative around this seems to be “Ariana the home-wrecker”, not “scumbag husband and dad destroys his entire family”. The person in a relationship who chooses to cheat will always be more liable/guilty/detestable in my book. Even if it like choosing what’s worse to step on; Lego or dog shit.

I’m no fan of adultery, but as he was the one who was married I think the blame lies primarily with him. She seems to make pretty bad life choices but she wasn’t the one with a wife and baby at home. His soon to be ex-wife has blamed Ariana for not being “a girls girl”, which again, seems to be missing the point imo. She’d been with that dude since high school and he cheated on her when their kid was less than 6 months old? What an absolute scumbag. I hope she doesn’t take him back when this relationship inevitably fizzes out.

I don’t know about the delivery driver. She was married to a guy who was a real estate agent or something like that. They got divorced in January. It was a covid relationship that didn’t last. This guy is in the theatre production of wicked that she’s staring in. He’s just filed for divorce from his high school sweetheart. They had a baby last august. Apparently Ariana and this dude were dating behind the wife’s back.

He looks like the new guy Ariana grande is dating, but surely it’s not.

I messaged the mods of two subreddits saying “hey, I’ve left this shithole and moved to lemmy. I’ve opened this community there and if you’d like to mod it I’m happy to add you. Just let me know.” No response. I don’t think you can be much fairer than that.

There’s two communities I opened that had existing but inactive communities on lemmy. Again I messaged them saying “do you plan on adding content to get this sub going? If not I’m happy take over for you. Meanwhile I’ve started an alternative. I’d prefer to combine the two communities than have competing ones, let me know what you’d prefer.” Again no response, so I created my own.

I don’t particularly want to be a mod, but the stubborn part of me doesn’t want to put all the legwork into building up a community that has an inactive/uninterested mod.

I mod a couple of communities I missed from Reddit. I’ve been stealing content from there to get the communities going (using the dystopia app so no ads and I don’t interact with Reddit at all). It’s honestly a bit jarring to read the nastiness/aggression in the comments after 5 weeks on lemmy. It’s so much nicer here, I hope we don’t lose that vibe completely as lemmy grows.

I had to make an active !confidently_incorrect community to cross post this to. It’s c/confidently_incorrect@lemmy.world if anyone’s interested.

Oh my god…

You’re commenting in a community called “Reddit”…

Is this first (sorta) rickroll in the fediverse?!

The Memmy app has been having an issue where every single comment you write has 2 upvotes as standard, not the usual 1. Not gonna lie, I thought I was mildly funny/interesting until Memmy acknowledged the error in one of their updates. 🥲

Edit: they just fixed the issue but this comment has a real upvote and I can now go to sleep feeling socially validated!
