I enjoy the posts, I’ve just always assumed this is another user doing a bit though — which is fine

All the better if there is a real person behind this, it gives me some hope for the younger generation, and I hope nothing you encounter here makes you regret sharing who you are and what you’re going through.

But you’re in a community that is skewing older and more early-internet, and thus most of us find it prudent to pretty much assume every identity in a community like this is partially or largely fake. I am, for example, a 4 year old Australian Shepherd in real life and my human has no clue.

Real or fake, I enjoy my game of “Stamets or Violet” every time I see a horny or uncouth post.

I, for one, still believe Stamets and Violet are the same person. Have you ever seen them in the same room together at the same time?? Checkmate!

This is like the second or third time I’ve seen this Stamets person mentioned, as if everyone knows who they are, but I’m clueless. I figure I’d better ask now before it gets even more awkward - who is Stamets and what’s their deal?

I’ve responded to and had Stamets comment on some of my posts. Don’t know anything about Violet

Idk what his deal is officially, just that if I find a meme especially relatable on a neurospicy level, it’s him 9/10 times. And that he kinda likes Star Trek.

@Stamets - Divisions by zero

Please consider taking a look at this post as well. They’re also a friend of mine and I don’t want this to be a recurring thing from me but I just feel helpless [https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/62521843] //// Stamets Linktree [https://linktr.ee/Stamets]

Hi.

I post a lot.

I started posting about 3 years ago to another instance before moving to lemmy.world and then shifting over to lemmy.dbzer0.com. I’m gay and a massive die hard Star Trek fan. I also post a fucking lot, way more in the past that I currently do. The things that I do post to shitpost communities are pretty gay or pretty horny and have similar vibes to the stuff that Violet apparently posts.

I’ve been called a power user (which I hate), a lemmy celeb (which I hate even more) and an asshole (which is accurate). Someone also accused me of being Gallowboob (a very prominent redditor) once which was kinda funny. I’m just a known quantity.

Neat! A pleasure to make your acquaintance.

I’m straight and not much of a Trekkie, so that might be how I’ve failed to notice your posting thus far, but I do love a good shitpost! I vibe with your feelings about being a power user or lemmy celeb, and being a reddit refugee, I find it amusing that you were accused of being Gallowboob!

I see you as having no reddit parallel. You are singular and we have no need of such comparisons.
