Folks,
Just a little warning. I’ll be working with Watergirl to adjust some things on the site, based on others’ feedback to her.
I don’t expect anything massive, but if things go wonky for a few, I hope you’ll understand!
Otherwise – open thread.
Note: I will not be monitoring this thread for your comments; once I’m done working with her, I’ve got other fish to fry, and will finish the list of issues she provides later, over the weekend, etc.

These are the worst changes ever! They completely destroy my ability to enjoy the site! What were they, again?

This is how Comrade Vlad started with the DNC servers. It’s a brand new day here.

Is four days out from the election really the best time to do this? And yes, I am an asshole.

@Bob the site tester:
Are we also allowed to be naked now?
I’m all for nude links.

Are these links naked because they’re NSFW?
Ceci n'est pas mon nym
@hovercraft: Wait, were we supposed to be wearing pants on BJ all this time?
There is a legend told that text was briefly green during one round of fixes. I think we need to go back to that. And threaded comments of course.

@Major Major Major Major: Saw the other day that you were dealing with some unpleasant things. Hope you’re feeling better. This, while somewhat NSFW, might cheer you up.

Can we please have a like button for comments?

@Bob the site tester: being able to post links would be good. being able to post links without going into moderation every time would be gooder. (i haven’t posted in a while, maybe that’s been addressed)
Calming Influence
The site will never be the same after this. I’m voting for Jill Stein, just to show you how mad I am. (Spoiler: completely mad.)

And while we’re at it, maybe you could explain why this site’s ad algorithm thinks I’m in the market for industrial rock crushing equipment…

@Alain the site fixer: Thanks. I now feel slightly less insecure.
