WTF is with Nextdoor: Yes, I am a pissed off American

I got an email maybe 2 days ago asking me to be a mod or something.

I've posted on Nextdoor maybe twice in a few years. I did not accept the honor.

They sent me a survey asking what I thought of the site and I said it was a swirling vortex of misery and racism.

:lol: They made me a mod a few years ago without even asking!

I think it’s because I reported some Trumper threatening to kill liberals, so the powers that be were like, “yeah he has what it takes to be a mod.”

I think it’s whoever is designated as “Lead” for your neighborhood, usually just the first person to register an account. Although I think some people basically invent new neighborhoods to be the Lead of.

If your Lead is normal, then their standards will be normal. If your Lead is a chud, well… then you’re going to see a lot of racist poo poo allowed.

We had a thread where one of the leads was like "we're not supposed to talk about it but I always vote against removing posts because I don't believe in censorship" so you can guess how well reports work for me. I HAVE had some duchess at reporting the particularly egregious people to actual nextdoor admins and getting them removed though. You just have to report them from their profile page rather than from a post.

That is a good fuckin' question. I suspect it's because I just updated my phone so poo poo is all wonky, but also no matter how much I try to tune the keyboard to not suck it will inevitably pick uncommon words over words I use constantly so who knows.

Predictive text sucks. I work on trains. I've worked on trains for years. I have multiple reasons every week to type out the word "locomotive". My phone does not understand this need at all and tries to change it to another lengthy word that begins with the same letter. At least once a month, I'll send a text to my boss that says something like "our licorice is running like poo poo today".

This is the train god's sign to exalt them by calling it your prime mover.

Might not be 100% accurate since you are probably using a diesel generator and maybe your traction motors are running like poo poo. But calling it licorice isn't 100% either.

Nah they're right that actually is a thing, tiktok taught a bunch of people who didn't otherwise know how easy it is and now the theft of those cars specifically is way way up from where it previously was

Someone straight up posted an entire pic gallery of dp porn stills recently, with the caption "let's bang some sluts! Anybody interested?"

I noticed it's the husband of my insurance agent, and I thought he was hacked. I had to call her anyway about insurance stuff on my house I'm getting ready to sell, so I said "hey, you're husband's account was hacked. Might wanna check that out."

No. He's not hacked. He's just, uh, what was the word she used. "Unconventional." Okay, well. Alright. Okay then.

So I got to ban my insurance agent's husband from nextdoor for posting about 600 still photos of dp and that's never going to be not weird.

Ah man, ghosts, yeah, like whenever I go out I see more and more Shadow People walking around. They've even started looking at me and I thought they were malevolent at first, but now I'm not sure. One of them let me know in my mind that my neighbor is releasing poison gases into my home through the nail-holes in the wall, so I got that fixed up. Stopped taking those pills my psychiatrist gave me just in case that was another avenue for the poisons.

So what's with all the ghosts? Anyone else know?

When you ban people from Nextdoor, they gradually become shadow people because they are no longer being acknowledged and heard.

What I'm saying is that Edward Fingerhands is directly responsible for this and someone should do something.

Those people probably complain about this generation not wanting to work yet they learn a skill from TikTok and now they complain about them actually getting out there and making a little money. Just can't please 'em.

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

There was someone in our neighborhood this weekend doing a survey on the upcoming elections. Very basic stuff, just asking who you'd vote for if the election was held today, what your registered party is, etc. Completely apolitical. Which led to this post on facebook:

"I've been praying so hard that we can turn things around on November 8th, our country is in dire straits! But a survey worker showed up in the neighborhood looking to create a "list" of who we vote for. DO NOT ANSWER THEM THIS IS HOW THEY CANCEL VOTES. You say you are a registered Republican and they cancel it, they prevent your vote from being counted so do not tell them anything. When I shut the door the poll worker wrote something down on her list, but did not get my information.

We need to get this done, Doug Mastriano will be victorious, and what a birthday "present" it will be. I will never understand being persecuted endlessly by The Left, gimme a break. "

I find it so bizarre when people add quotes for no reason except to maybe emphasize words. It's pretty much constantly used by old people and especially old conservative people on facebook.

Why did she put quotes around list? It's literally a list, it's not like you came up with that word or are using it in some other context here.
