Omg this is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I do a lot of media monitoring for work and have been using MBFC to try to measure how reliable my current Google Alerts are, because it throws up some weird and wild news sources.

Isn’t that essentially what Patreon is for though? How is it different (other than I assume no ‘bonus content’ for your sub)?

Do vegans generally accept that figs are okay to eat?

I grew up with a crazy vegan mother who dragged me to the outings of her crazy vegan club and they were all vehemently against eating figs. We don’t even live in a place where figs are common import, but they were so mad about it.

Your front pockets are actually pockets?! On most of my jeans/pants they’re just illusionary!

We don’t even have front pockets, just seams to give the illusion of a pocket!

I have photophobia (and photosensitivity!) so dark mode is the only tolerable way to look at things for me.

Since dark mode has become a lot more prevalent/accessibile there’s been a notable reduction in headaches/migraines for me, especially in conjunction with ‘night light’ settings, and an anti-glare glasses coating.

I’m just annoyed about the lack of consistency in what products do and do not support a dark mode, especially when other products in the same suite do.

I’m limited to using MS Office at work and love that Word, Outlook, OneNote and Drive all have dark themes and a quick toggle button to check accessibility/accommodate light-lovers if I’m screen sharing… But why was Excel left out ☹️? And a bunch of other apps, like Planner and Forms.

So I think “kill” is fine for the Tiktok censors as it can be used in various contacts that don’t necessarily mean death. Murder, suicide, and rape are definitely words that will get your content or comments removed, hence “grape” (or r@pe), “unalived”. Which is a bit frustrating when educational creators can’t actually talk about their specialist subjects but oh well.

They already threatened to stop this.

After the blackout, it seems the Admin sent out a generic message to mods of every private sub giving them a deadline to reopen, regardless of whether that sub had already been private prior to any talk of a blackout. Examples give in this post.

Easy: leave all emails that might be important as unread. That way, you know they’re important because they’re unread. Continue to never read them until you’ve got over 400 unread emails in your inbox. Then just mass delete any more than a month old, because they can’t still be important or relevant. Continue to feel guilty and not read emails.

Absolutely flawless system for me so far.

Honestly I love this idea for Orkney. If they actually managed to get a mandate from some sort of island referendum then good for them.

Sunak already commented on it saying the usual Better Together lines. I’m waiting for a proper Scottish Government response, will be extremely interesting to see the SNP position on this…
