Yeah they are blanking the posts and giving people PM access if they don't have it. Seems to be the best solution for the moment.

If they come off probe and keeping talking about self-harm, give then a much longer enforced break. If they have PMs people can still talk to them while probed.

RBG is dead, Mitch already declared Trump will get to fill her seat immediately.

The Supreme Court Justice RBG died.

Probably because RBG died, so Trump gets to appoint another judge to SCOTUS.

Going into more context would take a while but basically it means the GOP gets to pack the Supreme Court in their favor and there is in theory essentially nothing anyone can do about it for the next couple decades.

As you can imagine, D&D is not taking it well. I expected some kind of shitstorm to happen, but this is something else.

I do not envy the mods right now. At least this time its not some bizarre forums conspiracy or the site owner turning out to be a serial abuser, but D&D is nightmarishly difficult to mod at the best of times and the next few days are going to be a special kind of hell for them if this last slate of probes is indicative of anything.

the conservative party in the united states get yet another lifetime appointment to the high court basically, and this theoretically puts some laws like "the right to have an abortion" up for review

for people who are doom minded this is absolutely terrible news, but it was pretty likely to happen since the court judge who died was in her late 80s and kept getting cancer. but yeah a lot of folks are having a big freakout night tonight

See, this is why it doesn't make sense to follow politics. You start getting all bent out of shape about things you literally have no control over at all. The much better mental health option is to stare at your fantasy football line up and try to decide if Parris Campbell is worth starting in your flex over Julian Edelman.

I was super into politics in my late teens and early twenties. Then I realized politics are sports teams for people that want to pretend their opinions matter.

Its a horror CD thread so there's a casual acceptance of tons of discussion of graphic violent imagery some of it sexual in nature and yet he's managed to piss off so many people he's gotten the final warning to stfu after an extremely generous grace period.

That, his weird "daddy walrus likey" posting style, and just doubling down on the sexual innuendo after repeatedly being ask to tone it down.

The point where someone goes "please stop saying all these sexually graphic things at me" and his respose was "😉 you're in for it now" wouldve been an instant permaban in most other forums.

I love horror movies but I've never wanted to hear about any goon's hog, horror or otherwise.

That dude that was positioning literal hog corpses was pretty hosed up though. 30-50 dead javelinas killed from the back of a technical and yeah he positioned them after.

e: and yeah before someone tries to explain it, I've done the exact same job of murdering feral hogs in tx and nm. it isn't fun and no one normal drags their corpses into formation

What are you talking about? AA has been going nuts in PYF and elsewhere since getting demodded and joke sixer probes have been a thing since this forum's inception. You yourself say you're an "outsider" to the forum, why are you weighing in on something while straight up saying you don't know anything about it?
