With, of course, the grand sweeping generalization of it being ALL masculinity, so you can attract the eyes of self-doubting men and critical women...

Twitter has suspended people for typing the word "rear end" in a post @ someone verified. The schadenfreude is anyone using that hell website.

(AdGuard pretends to be a VPN to intercept all traffic.) EDIT: That also allows it to block app ads too. Samizdata has a new favorite as of 07:29 on Nov 27, 2017 |

While it is totally cool to be a Nazi on Twitter they have been known to suspend accounts for uttering the dreaded f-word at times.

Nope, been there just short of three years and no one has ever said a word about my behavior and my annual evals have been sterling.

That's perfectly normal. It's called "suicidal depression". We all get that from time to time. You may want to have someone take look at that though so it doesn't get worse

Twitter has an automated filter that looks for words commonly associated with toxic behavior, and if you post toxic words it will shitlist you and hide your tweets from people who aren't following you. Besides the obvious flaws, this filter also includes a lot of LGBT terms since trolls tend to use them insultingly, effectively segregating people who aren't heteronormative.

Folks who take pride in fully completing games are mad that a very difficult playthrough in a game has an achievement tied to it, so they aren't going to buy it. (stolen from the Dragging Down thread)

How will my friends (well, the people on my friends list) know how leet I am if I can't get every cheevo? I call them cheevos because I get them so often that saying achievement takes too much time.

Ahaha, holy poo poo. This appears a couple of times on the page: quote:[Edit to remove mention of petition] Why does every minor problem with video games merit having a loving petition about it? Jesus christ, buy the game or don't for whatever childish reasons you want. Don't go demanding poo poo from a game you haven't even bought or played yet.
