all I’m gonna say is that I am a life-long slightly edgy poster and I’ve never caught a suspension or a ban anywhere - because it is in fact quite easy to avoid crossing the “this joke could possibly be construed as a violent threat” line on social media

I knew he'd be suspended the second I saw that, it was a really stupid thing to say.

People are going to be mad at me but it is extremely, extremely easy to not use violent language and say people should be killed. Stop posting violent fantasies everybody. Hyperbole is not going to excuse you.

I don't think any of my viewpoints are especially woke, despite how a right wing media apparatus might frame them. My "woke" opinions are basic human decency.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

The entire force of government and news media keeps trying to convince everybody in America that China is our enemy and nobody is fuckin buying it.
“The prohibited activities would include joint research, co-authorship on papers, and advising a foreign graduate student or postdoctoral fellow. The language is retroactive, meaning any interactions during the previous 5 years could make a scientist ineligible for future federal funding.”
U.S. Congress considers sweeping ban on Chinese collaborations
Researchers speak out against proposal that would bar funding for U.S. scientists working with Chinese partners or training Chinese students

Now we are going to watch a special Mortal Kombat match, Johnny Cage's 433 where he does not use his instruments for four minutes and thirty three seconds. For the purposes of mortal combat his instrument is punching people in the nuts and then decapitating them.

Wait is that why Gene Roddenerry has Klingons eat worms and rancid meat? Cause they are basically hardened sailors?
Guy who decides the way to be more masculine is to eat like an 18th century sailor, every meal is mealworms, hard tack, and rancid salted beef.

The worst thing in the already bad Mario Galaxy trailer is Mario looking at Bowser's painting and angrily saying "It's trash".

Mario is a kind hearted nice character and would never say something mean or discouraging out of a perceived threat to his masculinity or petty jealousy over a crush.

I have a social media life hack where I don't get banned from things because I don't threaten people, sincerely, facetiously or otherwise. It's actually really easy.
The account owner of @sarahkendzior.bsky.social was suspended for 72 hours for expressing a desire to shoot the author of an article. The post, made 11/10, stated: "I want to shoot the author of this article just to watch him die." 1/2

I normally just post my current weight loss progress on Fridays and in a specific thread but today is special, it's 50 days since I started.

I've lost 27.5 pounds in the last 50 days, .55 pounds a day.

I have a calorie budget per day, a step goal, closed kitchen 7pm-7am, and tai chi twice a week.

Toy Story 5 should have taken place in the post apocalyptic world of Wall-E, where Woody and a band of roving toys survive in an abandoned Earth and meet Wall-E and the newly formed returning human colony.

The colony finds itself under assault from sentient Cars that have eyes and a mouth

A policy to not comment on individual accounts is appropriate, but maybe there should be a policy to comment on EVERY account.

Surely to enforce a suspension someone has filled a reason in a form. A moderation bot account could post the reason and the time approved for every suspension.
Our policy has been not to comment on individual accounts. You end up having to litigate every case in public, and we don’t have the capacity for infinite debates in public.

Then there’s also the consequences such as the increased litigation and bad actors gaming your systems.

Frank Sinatra says
"Bada Bing,
Bada boom..."

Then raises his hands in the symbol of Diamond Dallas Page and shouts

"Bada BANG!"

delivering a perfect Diamond Cutter to Marlon Brando.

I'm seeing some of these new health care premiums and co-pays people are posting and it just simply isn't possible for people to pay. Even people making six figures can't pay that. It would be cheaper to fly to a country with universal healthcare whenever you got sick. Which you can't actually do
