Lordwall sits at the foot of a giant glacier in a high mountain valley. The small microclimate this location enjoys has proven to be stimulating to all dwarves spirituality. Lordwall has just established an organized religion, devoted to the worship of Rîsen, the Goddess of mountains and caverns. Thikut Blowgirder has assumed the role of Sacred Shadow, Rîsen's earthly prophet. While many of our dwarves worship this deity, not everybody subscribes to Thikut's teachings. Time will tell if Lordwall's inhabitants heed the prophecies being foretold, or if division will threaten our fledgling civilization.
Hehe, the actual "old internet" resembles the fediverse of today, it's what we thought the internet was supposed to be back then. Once corporations found the internet, we got the bullshit we have today.
Reddit: You can't be private, people need to see the content, reopen or else!
TIHI: No.
Reddit: Fine, mods are gone and we've reopened the community. People who want to be mods speak up
Crickets: Cricket noises
Reddit: This sub is unmoderated, so it's now banned so nobody can see it
So... Reddit just reclosed the sub they said MUST be open.
Sound logic. Real class act.
Whenever people say "Somebody should do something!" they very rarely ever add "and the somebody is me"
"Far Right" and "Extremist" are not Christian. Christian is John 13:34
"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another."
That's what being woke is. Loving one another, regardless of how we may or may not have sinned.
Democracies work when the voting populace is educated and informed. Unfortunately, humanity willfully avoids being either in favor of opinion and bias.
I actually sent spez a private message on my way out, calling out what an arrogant hypocrite he is. He probably won't ever read it, but man it felt good writing it.
/r/ModCoord is polling subs, a lot of support still for indefinite blackout
Despite what advertising executives believe, the majority of us would gladly pay if it meant not having to deal with ads. I hate ads so much.
The only reason I keep FB around at this point is that's honestly the only way I have to contact a certain sub-section of people. The messenger app is the only real reason, that and FB is the new Classmates.com lol
ETA: I believe FB is dead in terms of what it once was. My GenZ teenagers seem to think so, and honestly so does almost everyone else I regularly actually interact with. What really killed it in my eyes is when they began targeting what showed up in your feed, instead of the old default "all, newest first". And over time it became harder and harder to find how to do "all, newest first". Once that happened, it was inevitable it would become the violently divided echo chamber it is today.
Aren't these the same people who claim that an unborn baby has every right to live, even if they're only like 4 cells and still dividing? Does like... that right to life just end once they're birthed? I really don't get how these people justify their stupidity.
Back in Reddit, I might have also have seen this in "TalesFromTheFrontDesk", which is another one I'm missing over here right now. It's one of those great "ticks the boxes of both" stories.
Or "Just google it"
