Make sure to save it. Might be handy or old hardware that has weird SD card size limits.

I saw a guy saying he didn't see how it was political because we didn't know the empire's opinions on "social issues" i.e. gay people.

When the Low Mods Rise
Postelaire

When the heavy moderation weighs like a
lid on my spirit, yearning to post
And when the modlog stretches to the horizon,
sadly removing more comments than any sad silence,
When the replies stretch down as prison bars,
And new alts are created, hurting their timid pride
And bitterness behind the signup self-flagellation
And the dripping digital gulag walls...

When the rain of notifications streak down,
A silent swarm of removed come to weave
into the site their smug callout threads
Then suddenly the Admin pins a post.
Casting their hideous new rules to the front page--
Like wailing wraiths shrieking "problematic!" across the site
With woke posts upbeared high.

My account is banned as slow processions of accusations
And misinfo pierce my soul
My defeated account bursts into cri
Long chains of locked threads stretch endlessly...
And the woke tyrant, IDPOL,
plants neo-pronouns on my abandoned account

I kept searching for "My Little Pony" in users' posts who said Star Wars was for babies and the mods had to ruin search to prevent this from continuing to occur on a regular basis.

Guy who refers to just taking entire tracks and selling them as your own as "sampling"

 

There is no inherently superior number of sides for a shape to have. Be it 4 or 6 or even (shudders) 8.

I shouldn't have tried to start a 6-sided shape war. I will not keep asking the admin for a squarebear sister site for rectanglers such as myself. I will no longer refer to moderators as "hex maniacs, and not the cute kind". All sides are valid. I will not sign my posts with "get rect".

I'm sorry.

With posts like

"My nephew says he's going to rip out my throat with the back of a claw hammer if I don't stop defending Israel because "hamas uses human shields" doesn't justify cooking entire families with missiles apparently"

We need to be infiltrating and driving them to infighting.

I'm make sure to periodically shake my head when watching John Q. to let people know I don't approve of Denzel's character's actions in the film.

 

The union tried to help, but hit a number of barriers. Normally, the union uses public records to find out who owns a tenant’s home and then identifies what other properties the landlord owns. But public records only list if a person owns a unit in a condo building, not how many units they own. That means they couldn’t identify other tenants with the same landlord.

“A lot of the tenants end up not wanting to do a bigger fight because they feel so alone,” she said.

The union is brainstorming new tactics. One idea, which hasn’t yet been tested, is to organize around common issues instead of common landlords.

M.H. tried to do that when her water was shut off. But she found that each renter, because they had different landlords, had a different experience.

The soundtrack's pretty good too. I downloaded that and listen to it before I've even played it.

Looking at pictures of the restaurants online because I think I've maybe been in one once in my life and I can't even remember that. They range from really normal-looking bar-restaurants tomore dude-bar-y so I don't know.

I'm trying to tell you that when you're ready, you won't have to.

 

Good thing I was recording it.

This town racial-profiles and the cops wouldn't let me leave. The lady at the Inn wouldn't let me get a room, I saw someone with the same name as me on the sign-in sheet so I tried to lie my way into a room, but she wasn't fooled. I ended up hanging out with some kids who thought we were the same age. Nothing weird happened and there are absolutely zero power dynamic issues here. They told me about a secret passage if I played tag with them, which took hours. The passage didn't lead out of the town, but it did lead to this old guy's telescope and he told me about the Gamer Kid who's been terrorizing the town with various hamas-antifa-style intimidation tactics and violence. He might have killed some royal-relative dude on that forest path but I was too busy chasing after him to notice.

Also I hear coughs everywhere I sometimes asked people about it but they'd change the subject or sometimes even out-right deny that they coughed or that there was any problem.

Ended up finally getting out of town and heading south to some disgusting swamp that I think might be literally toxic. I thought maybe I went so far south to like Louisiana or something, but they just call it the Southern Swamp here or something. There was some kinda' tourist trap location on the edge of the swamp and some fellow 'scrubs' like me deep inside the swamp. Anyway, this place sucks ass too. Seems to be an actual authoritarian hermit kingdom. But it had a missing princess, so this was a chance to get a princess GF. Met a giant fucking owl that could talk and he taught me a song that he said would help me, although to be honest it kinda' sucked. Eventually found a hidden temple with the princess inside and a giant native guy who I couldn't tell if I should take his side or not. He kept saying the same like 3 short sentences over and over and kept attacking me and the bugs were so bad in there. So I killed him and he in the commotion I could tell if he turned into a mask or maybe he ran away and left the mask there but I got it and met a giant (like at least 6' 1") who said he'd help me combat the masked Gamer Kid. Took the little princess back and everyone was happy and at least the swamp healed.

Anyway, don't buy a Switch 2 in 2 days.

 
 

I'm wearing a t-shirt explaining why but no one can read it because she obscures most of it. And I'm sick of people asking about it.

 

Good, funny video on the different forms of creative envy Dan Olson has.
