it used to be actual whalewatching but apparently a bunch of people from fph moved there and were posting and upvoting fat people pictures there. admins reversed the ban and the moderators made it private until the storm blows over.

i'm oddly curious to see how long the tantrum will go on for. it is also really funny how the awful people are providing all the evidence in the world of just much they needed to be banned. if anything it is a good lesson to the reddit admins (and admins everywhere) that you need to be quick with the banhammer before things start to get entrenched.

can't be that long right, it's not like there's a precedent for stupid nerd vendettas stretching out for months on end, in the name of high principles that sadly simply must include the possibility of doxxing and harassment if our rights as cybercitizens in the web 2.0 are to mean anything

well there is probably a contingent of nerds still mad about the pew pew guns in a star trek movie being the wrong color or something, but they keep to whatever corner of the internet so normal people don't have to interact with them.

i just wonder how long the before the "gently caress you dad! you can't tell me how to live!" rage becomes impotent and unable to push anything into visibility on reddit. every hour that passes it loses novelty and every new subreddit/username banned just demotivates more because it shows just how futile the whole thing is.

I am Neil deGrasse Tyson. an Astrophysicist. But I think about Art often. (self.Art)

I’m perennially intrigued when the universe serves as the artist’s muse. I wrote the foreword to Exploring the Invisible: Art, Science, and the Spiritual, by Lynn Gamwell (Princeton Press, 2005). And to her sequel of that work Mathematics and Art: A Cultural History (Princeton Press, Fall 2015). And I was also honored to write the Foreword to Peter Max’s memoir The Universe of Peter Max (Harper 2013).
