I was invited to become a mod on r/daystrominstitute a few years ago and within about a month realized that I didn’t have the time or emotional capital to invest in that job. It’s challenging, especially in a sub like that where there are pretty serious rules governing discussion and it burned me out really fast. The people who do it (well) have a passion for it; plucking some rando to be a head mod is going to kill a sub.

The political theater of hate continues. Abbott is a real piece of shit.

It’s amazing how inept spez has proven to be, and that’s after most people had developed a pretty negative opinion of him. The CEO of a community-driven company really cannot be an anti-social megalomaniac and have the company survive.

Anything that doesn't conform neatly to their views is bias. My parents were like that when I was growing up; Rush Limbaugh and Focus on the Family all day on the radio, then my dad would watch the evening news and bitch about how biased it was. Completely nuts.

Trump, of course, has no idea what that means; he was just getting positive feedback talking about replacing judges and so he started counting up to increase the cheering.

It’s inevitable that the subs are going to start opening again, one way or another. Best thing to do is just leave Reddit and not worry about whether the protest is still going at this point.

If someone would make an RSS reader with its own comments/threads independent of the stories themselves I could go straight to the app comments after reading only the headline to get shitty takes on stories I won’t read.

The Reddit experience really isn’t that hard to recreate.

The Georgia indictment is a big one, though.
