I also think that some mods genuinely believe that the permabanned aren't people lol. Larry, CKF, Smarxist, Numbers GUy, etc. say whatever you want to them. THey can't post and therefore the Rules Based Posting Order does not apply to them

yeah, i kind of interpreted it that way which is why i made the sad thread. but maybe they were just protecting one of their freak celebrities. i didnt know that poster was already famous for being lovely.

idk if they were even protecting anyone. they got mad at being told they were very stupid and bad and decided not to listen to anyone who doesn't post in gbs a while ago

I think only reason fluff didn't permaban chinatown when he saw the sad thread was that the chain probe took up the first page and a half of chinatown's rap sheet so fluff didn't see their own permaban ultimatum lol

i dont think it's that devious, most of the admins simply don't spend enough time on the site to get deeply embedded in the rich and nuanced fabric of day to day drama. and the exception is fluff, who is consistent, but also seems pretty tired of dealing with insane crap he doesnt personally care about (a not unreasonable position).

whenever we tried to have a "politics admin" that ended horribly with vyelkin signing off his tenure by saying "he doesn't think anyone should try to be a politics admin, but just think of themselves as a site admin in general" which is a nice sentiment but based on historic patterns makes me feel like we probably won't ever have a long term admin who is particularly "engaged" with the politics parts of the site, even if they don't view themselves as a "politics admin."

I also PMed Jeffrey about it five days ago lol he didn't reply so maybe he just didn't read it or didn't care, but I figured the post was beyond the pale enough that if I were an admin I would've wanted to know about it...

Fuckin' $400 for a month's supply of the only brand of insulin my pretend insurance will pretend to cover. (My long-acting insulin was $70, which is at least manageable.) And another $450 if I want to keep taking Jardiance, but down from $600 so I guess that's progress.

Got a manufacturer's discount thing that will allegedly bring that down to the $35 we've apparently decide is what insulin should actually cost (instead of the Much Less Than That that it actually costs to manufacture) but the last time I tried that with this brand they rejected it because gently caress me and my high-deductible pretend insurance I guess.

I don't really need my kidneys to work, right?

New year, new $5,000 deductibles. It's the only system imaginable.

like ive previously advised, find someone who will bill you for the deductible, then dont pay that bill and youve technically met your deductible for the year. a pointless er visit should do nicely
