exactly. we get a lot of criticism for being strict on reddit and discord, and “your community would be bigger like x server/subreddit if you weren’t so strict” and i’ll be like, i have seen that community, and it sucks because its full of edgy, shitty children who have no fear of consequences. pass
Having shipped numerous MMOs over the course of the years, let me tell you that having and using the ‘fascistic’ power of moderation is crucial unless you want to have a 4chan style den of nazis and child porn instead of a viable business.
It's not linguistic loopholes. It's that power is inherently fascistic. It's impossible to be an admin of anything from a major social media platform to a tiny MUD and not turn into a enormous butt-hurt wimp. It's impossible to have the power to delete without using it.

great expectations by dickens. it was the first fiction book i started reading and couldn't finish. i think it was the first fiction book i didn't like. i was so uncritical. when i found out we were reading the abridged version in class, i went to the library and got the full book. huge mistake
performative reading, lack of reading skills, nobody's reading anymore -- NO!
tell me about a book that changed you
for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"

This is deeply misleading. The agricultural section of the bill does NOT ban hemp-derived cannabinoid products that contain less than .3% THC total. www.cannabisbusinesstimes.com/hemp/news/15...

🧵
"Hemp"-derived products that contain only CBD will continue to be legal, and any state that's legalized cannabis will still have legalized (and regulated) cannabis. This is just to close the loophole that resulted in some dangerous products being technically legal.

Had a great convo with an artist I know who’s looking for a way to help out. We talked about how there are images photogs often won’t share right now to avoid incriminating folks & talked about the possibility of trusted artists creating illustrations that don’t reveal people’s real world features.

protestants should believe this too, since jesus literally said it. their criticism of catholicism has always been that catholic ritual, iconography, etc. is extrabiblical. this is obviously not one of those extrabiblical things. it's red-letter text.

This particular scene where “someone,” real or generated, zoomed into a pixelated, low res image and hovered their stylus over the screen to somehow contribute to an animated ad really cuts deep as someone who works in design and once studied to be an animator.

If you don't understand why "challah bread" is a horror movie phrase just imagine the level of side-eye you'd give someone who said they had "baguette bread"

a while ago i was wondering if i went too far a while back when i said that toriyama's wife's role in dragon ball was "major" and she literally drew most of the first page of the manga and named DB's most iconic attack etc. on top of feeding sensei and keeping the kids out of his hair at crunch time
Per NYPost's scoop, some of the ways Mamdani's wife has "quietly steered" his campaign are weighing in on his logo design, being "a major source of support for him in private" and once posting on Instagram, "Couldn't possibly be prouder."
[the NY Post scrambling to make a last-ditch scandal:]
"umm, uhhh, his aloof wife Rama Duwaji secretly ran the campaign"
