Maybe SA will become the epicenter of internet posting for everyone again, but I'm not holding my breath. Forums are definitely the best form of posting, with the possible exception of Discord, which is basically forums.

also some optometrists have this thing called Optomap which gives you a better interior view of your eye and doesn't require dilation

Discord is like... private twitter. Sucks for referencing anything after more than a few minutes

Tension within loyalist communities is greater than at any point since the ceasefires of 1994, the Progressive Unionist Party (PUP) leader has said.

Billy Hutchinson said political developments, including Brexit protocol arrangements, had caused rising anger.

His comments echo views expressed in a letter to unionist party leaders by the Loyalist Communities Council (LCC).

It warned of "dire consequences" if joint London-Dublin rule of Northern Ireland was imposed in the continued absence of Stormont.

The Northern Ireland Office has said that joint authority is not under consideration.

Speaking on BBC Radio Ulster's Stephen Nolan programme, Mr Hutchinson, whose party is linked to the UVF, said: "I do not want to see violence.

"We need to make politics work. I want the British government to listen that there is tension. "This is real. People should not be poo-pooing it.
"We cannot ignore loyalism. We are part of this society and we need to move forward together."

Mr Hutchinson denied that his remarks and the LCC letter made public last week amounted to a threat of violence.

It has previously been acknowledged that the so-called Irish Sea border arrangements on trade flows between Great Britain and Northern Ireland have created discontent within loyalism and unionism.
It was one of the factors at play in successive nights of street disorder in April 2021.

Vote! (but not for catholics this time, or else protestants will burn the whole thing down)

It seems shocking to me that with as lovely as our current social media sites are no one has come along with the next big thing. I guess it's TikTok, but I just keep waiting for someone to make the next post based friendster/myspace/facebook/twitter/etc.

At this point maybe the big guys are too entrenched not to buy and drown any possible competition.

also I thought I was "boymoding" for the appointment because my insurance is still under my old name but the examiner kept calling me "young lady" so I guess I just radiate girl energy or some poo poo (I also have an effeminate sounding voice and the sort of hair dye job that sends chuds into apoplexy)

Lol very carefully.

Just like you I had an eye exam about two months ago. The first since 2004. I knew about the eyedrops making me sensitive to light but not that it hosed with my near-sighted vision. I couldn't really see the gauges when driving but my house was only a 5 minute drive from the office.
