Community Rules
You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).
Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.
Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.
Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".
Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.
Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.
Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.
Avoid AI generated content.
Avoid misinformation.
Avoid incomprehensible posts.
No threats or personal attacks.
No spam.
Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

Protip: pimp your pizza.
Slap on some nice cheeses, some nice cold cuts (if you're into meat), sprinkle some basil and oregano, can even dump a more consistent pizza sauce over it of you're feeling frisky! Turns a 5/10 slab of whatever into a 7/10 slab of whatever with custom rims and a body kit!
Pizza sauce is so easy to make yourself - fry a clove of garlic in a teaspoon of oil, add a can a chopped tomatoes, a pinch of salt, a pinch of sugar, a pinch of oregano - let that simmer on the stove, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes or until all the water has boiled off and you have a thick puree then spread that on your chosen base and add some cheese. Voila! If you learn how to make your own dough then a homemade cheese pizza will cost pennies and taste better than anything you will get in the supermarket.
You lost me at making my own dough.
Just buy a pre-made one then
The only real problem with making your own dough is the rise time when you just want to slap it together and eat.
Pre-made pizza bases will save you time, making your own is super cheap but I appreciate it takes time. I'll usually make a big batch on a weekend and then just freeze balls of dough which I can use later.
cheddar and chicken slices, take it or leave it :3
Protip: Follow the instructions. Lotta people yolo it and then complain frozen pizza sucks
get some nduja, hot sauce, and fresh basil on that motherfucker. Delivery pizza is obsolete.
Dice up a bit of fresh garlic. Put some Sriracha on there. Get creative and indulgent! The frozen pizza is the beginning of wisdom, not the end of it.
