people like cascadebeta will never be satisfied and are a good example of why you should police your communities amd remove toxic hosed up people because they will never stop making GBS threads it up as long as they are around. i hope she got the help she needed but no one should have to deal with someone who is that aggro all the timepentyne posted:reminder that smarxist, who basically built and ran BNR from the start doing literally all the work got run out almost immediately after CB joined because he did something she didn't like lmao

Ostensibly you’re here because it’s fun, and sure, like any social interaction you’ll get pissed sometimes but when your entire persona is “kill yourself, losers”, I can’t imagine you’re actually enjoying it anymore.

I don't remember if it was specifically her but I remember someone around that time posting that SA was literally the only decent website online anymore and every single person outside of it were nazis and chuds, so they can't calm down because the revolution has to start here.

I’ve posted about how doomscrolling is basically the emotional version of self harm in the past and it’s very true. I have a degree in poli sci and the closest I come to reading political stuff on this board is the tankie thread, which is mostly just laughing about harmless idiots posturing in old military gear or engaging in multi-level Maoism. I feel like if I went into CSPAM on the regular it would be loving awful for my mental health, not even from the bad news but from the general shared outlook over there.

the most sincere advice i can give is to love and take care of yourself and do things you enjoy. live your life to the fullest and try not to worry too much because you only have one life to live and it is too short  Ugly In The Morning posted:I’ve posted about how doomscrolling is basically the emotional version of self harm in the past and it’s very true.

I used to raid with CascadeBeta and she was pretty fun to hang out with. Then she came out and things got weird. I have a lot of sympathy for trans people being out of sorts as you come out and figure out who you really are, but what she ended up doing was way too over the top.

From what I've heard even fuckin Fishmech is doing better now that they don't spend 16 waking hours a day on SA.

When tashilicious was posting in the climate thread and pre- "d&d miniatures" phase they talked early on how when they talked to their therapist they were told pretty strongly that their doomscrolling/posting was bad for them mentally and they needed to stop.

I once checked up on Bread and Roses and there was a long thread about someone complaining about CascadeBeta's moderation, which caused her to melt down and declare her intentions to quit the forums. Then someone posted this and was immediately permabanned: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2nlY5X64kE

Someone who's rage at their struggles in the world resulted in them going into the trans tread and telling people to graphically kill themselves, expecting a ban+30 as the cost before someone rightly said "no, this person needs to leave forever" and I think the covid threads have result in 4-5 permabans from people posting serious deathlust and violent intentions pentyne has a new favorite as of 07:03 on Sep 11, 2021 |
