It’s honestly terrifying how much people really don’t give a shit about what other people want (hexbear.net)

Saw a TikTok about some woman asking why men have to disturb the peace of a Saturday or Sunday morning by mowing their lawn or using a leaf blower, and you would’ve thought she went on a bigoted rant by the comment section. Like damn she was just talking about how it would be nice to enjoy a peaceful morning and random commenters took it as a personal attack. Shit you not I truly believe some suburbanites would go to war over their lawn the way they treat it like a fortress to a castle.

Is this not extremely silly when you type it all out? Time is a circle and I feel like I’m a peasant under feudalism watching kings, nobles and knights protect their land like it’s under some type of threat

People can take measures to reduce their vulnerability to loud noises from outside their home if it is a frequent problem.

Plenty of obnoxious noises are just a normal part of living, barking dogs, crying babies, people maintaining their homes at the times they can, and I'm personally tired of the petty authoritarian efforts of people to control when and where people can do things for their own convenience beyond all reason.

fuck you let me sleep

Earplugs are, like, ten dollars

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

why the fuck should i sleep with earplugs every night just in case some jackass runs a lawnmower in the morning when they could instead not run the lawn mower so fucking early in the goddamn morning?

Why should someone sweat their ass off in the midday sun so you can save ten dollars?

read my comment again, it's definitely not about the $10

I know what your point is, I just think it's silly. Have you ever worked a landscaping job? Yardwork in the midday sun is pretty much torture, so wearing earplugs needs to be worse than that for me to agree with you.

damn it's a real shame there is no time between 7 and 12 that's less hot than 1pm.

Wait, are you saying people are mowing their lawns at 6am? I thought we were talking, like, 8.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

nah 8 is too early. i could be talked into accepting loud shit at 10 am

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yeah nah 10 is a full ten degrees warmer than 8 in the summer and the sun's already high in the sky
