When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

As someone who has had many disagreements with Jeffrey, he is infinitely better than lowtax. He talks to people, explains himself and is frequently available.

He also has, to my knowledge, never commited spousal abuse.

I've been here for 16 years and Lowtax has never posted a single thing at me or my friends even though I was a part of a group of 15 people he blamed for all the forums problems and labeled with the F and R word (a group where nearly everyone is queer or/and different-abled people, cool thing to do that most of the forum was on board with). Never told us exactly what we were doing wrong (other than being Fs), and how we were ruining GBS and PYF even though we never posted in them and how we were bothering people we never interacted with on a subforum that only 14-15 people ever looked at, which were probably all us.

Jeff has actually gone out of his way to come to us at least make some offers of making things right. Low bar but it's something I guess.

Fine. There's an insult I'd hear at Ross County games from the auld fans. Mewch. I have no idea how it's spelled, I think it's a Gaelic word. Just angry old men yelling "YA MEWCH" (Mew like the Pokemon, Ch like in Loch) at players they decided they thought were useless despite being our top scorer.

Obviously cant speak of this specific situation because I wasn't involved but I can tell you that my only direct interaction with lowtax was when he barged into the mod forum during the FYAD shitstorm yelling at us to make the problem go away so he could go back to buying gourmet cookies

The BYOBXP previous to this current. After they ended the moderation, labeled it a "Forum for R___" and gave out forum cancer for posting there, it trickled down to just a small number of people. But he would still go on rants about how we were a bunch of Fs ruining the forums, even though just about no one but us read BYOB, and only a small number of us ever left the bubble (basically like me and a few other people).

Our plight is not as bad as being a woman he abused for sure, not even close, but it still loving sucked. Especially since most of us were already marginalized people outside of here.

The best thing that ever happened to us honestly was him finally closing it, we're all in a much better spot of our own.

This must have been around the ”de-tumblrfication” where he chased off the “cat lady mods.” I’m amazed so much leftism was born out of this place despite his frequent attempts to do the opposite.

I’m sorry that happened to your group, and I’m glad you made your own place.

Yes it was the precursor to that period. You're absolutely right about the leftist thing--I worry that I would have become a chud had I not met all those cool people and I'm grateful that him smushing all of the leftists into a room with me helped me see how differently things could be than what I had heard growing up.

I really appreciate the acknowledgement.

I've had Goldbelly cookies before, they're fine. When it comes to bougie New York cookies I'm a Levain or Milk Bar loyalist. Honestly, you can make cookies just as good or honestly better than them from the comfort of your own kitchen. Even if you wanted to only use high quality ingredients it would still probably only run you <$40, with enough material to make much more than 10 cookies a pop. Do not spend $100 for ten okay cookies like a loving psycho.

This has been a good cookie recipe for me recently. You can switch out the chocolate chips for a lot of things like mini Reece's cups or whites chocolate macadamia nuts, very adaptable recipe:

Not watching it because gently caress giving him any views, but a lot of the goons in the thread that began all this are saying it alternates between him having an online pity party for himself, him giving off serious Budd Dwyer vibes, and him shilling those goddamn fancy rich person cookies.
