Can not emphasise enough how much you should go to your moderation settings and turn off hiding for the 「 rude 」 label
All the moderation here sucks but this, in particular, is systematically abused by Aaron the so-called head of 「 trust and safety 」 here at BS.

Hey, as a librarian I need to tell you:
Our funding depends on usage.
So go ahead and check out that book even if you don't think you'll finish it. No one will know. Check out that DVD even though you might not like it. Get ambitious in your quest for knowledge.

i truly, deeply loathe about Toronto politics is how shamelessly politicians twist vulgar-leftist events/language into policies helping millionaire homeowners
Kandavel closes his speech by referencing last night's NYC election.
"Zohran Mamdani ran and won NOT on a YIMBY platform, but on complexity and affordability ... it was addressing the needs of all the five boroughs."
"We are risking suburban alienation with this," he says of sixplexes.
