Community Rules

You must post before you leave

Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.

Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.

Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".

Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.

Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.

Avoid AI generated content.

Avoid misinformation.

Avoid incomprehensible posts.

No threats or personal attacks.

No spam.

Edit: Oh and totally unrelated, but make sure you avoid the website brandalism.ch. It hosts totally unethical content like this: Subvertising Manual. Just a PSA, definitely don't visit the site if you have any bus stops with ads near you, and especially avoid it if you have a poster that you think would be nicer to display there.

The way the 2020s are going, we are not about to get any legislation to rid us of the scourge that are billboards, so for the most part, I have to agree.

There's a billboard on my way to work that says this and it just makes me think of all the different ways to deface a billboard.

I don't even know what it's supposed to be advertising because it pisses me off so much.

You know some sad act will take it off though.

The tape might just be there to hold it while the glue sets. At least that's what I woulda done.

And then they can try, but it'll be a bit.

This is the most polite way to block an ad at a bus stop.

Eh, it will probably be someone that's paid to do it. Most won't care enough.
