Or, rather, I’m going to go if I actually sleep because I can’t because I’ve gone the entire day on only cookies.

There’s a cookie place next to my dorm that opened at the start of the year, and my roommates have placed bets on whether it makes it to the end of the semester.
It makes amazing cookies, but it’s also expensive, and you can get a BOGO deal if you go there after 9pm because they make the cookies fresh every day and thus need to get rid of them before closing.

This is dangerously close to a May post.
Just missing the wonky capitalization.

That’s not even really my thing… wait, hold on, I should say it’s “not really My Thing”. I always feel a bit weird about people associating it strongly with my persona, since I actually associate it with not-me, I associate it with being a really common thing on Tumblr that I hijack occasionally when I need it for communication/emphasis but which I do not particularly Enjoy. But I do do it a lot. So I guess it’s a common feature of my posts

We should open a weekly discussion on both updating discourse vs keeping the VC plugin and the Politics rule.

i like the implication that if we update discourse we HAVE to get rid of the politics rule

I was unaware that people were actively wanting FoL to be a place to avoid politics and if that’s what people want then it probably should be And It Is Not Right Now

? AFAIK barring the April Fools’ thing (which was again a communication failure) IDT people have been talking politics much at all recently? We specifically had a whole thing a little bit ago about making it clear we were still enforcing that rule

Where is the line drawn at “politics”? Because there appears to be a line which definitely exists but is invisible to me, clearly

i don’t feel like politics is talked about much here in the first place, and i also don’t think the way the april fools event handled the situation and people being averse to it is “wanting to avoid politics”

i think the rule is fine and is enforced well enough

i do think getting rid of the no politics rule is a Bad Idea. We saw how the politics thread went lmao

Are we considering the-discussion-or-voicing-of-opinions-of-political-topics-but-on-topics-which-have-viewpoints-which-are-entirely-or-near-enough-consensus-in-FoL as politics or not?

you didn’t have the intelligence to avoid making that remark to my face. into the pit of a billion snakes.

because I am under the opinion that there is actively political discussion on this forum at least every week
or at least that is what it feels like
