MODERATORS
 

I left /c/Risa because the moderator there was letting his own personal feelings color rules, removing posts that violated no clearly written rules, and creating new rules without even running it past the community or asking how they feel about it.

The moderator of this community is guilty of that same behavior.

I'll be over on [email protected].

Wait really? Because I'll move over to BC in a fucking heartbeat. Fuck Ontario.

Wait. That article talks about Newfie lighthouse keepers. I'm newfie. GIMME!

A couple years ago they were looking for a new lighthouse keeper in the SF bay https://ebls.org/about/keepers-search-innkeeper/ but it looks like they filled the position.

However this lighthouse includes a B&B and is in the bay surrounded by millions of people so maybe not quite what you were looking for.

If you don't follow-through and become a lighthouse keeper, I'm going to be pissed.

I mean I have literally nothing else to do with my life, no marketable skills, and if I disappear in a wash from the ocean then no ones gonna really miss me so fuck it. I'm signing up.

I think they try to avoid sending the chronically depressed to run the lighthouses. Maybe you should try air traffic control.
