@meso It was absolutely insane. Every movie that contained a shot of the Twin Towers was blacklisted, entire movies were delayed to rewrite/reshoot, like Spiderman had put a web between the Twin Towers to catch a helicopter and that was scrapped. MGS2 had the Big Shell crashing into New York and Konami made them move it. I'd never seen anything like the reaction to 9/11.
:kissingercalling: Bill? :billgoops: Yes, my dark liege. :kissingercalling: They stopped being afraid of plane crashes. We need someone to fuck a bat. :billgoops: Yes, lord.
@lucy@grillchen@sun I guess I can't see posts from brotka.st, but it is P2P fedi and designed to avoid the problems of servers being heavyweight and difficult to maintain, the handshake problem of post distribution, the liability/moderation problems, the imbalance between users and admins (specifically things like users having less control than admins about what sort of thing they see and some of the privacy issues), the bandwidth problems for content distribution, the reliance on DNS.
It is also a thing that I just avoided putting "PissDB" into and decided to call it "PiDB".
@lucy@grillchen@sun No, it is not like either of those. It'd probably be closer to SSB if you removed a lot of the brain damage and came up with a clever way to bridge to fedi and you didn't hate the clearnet.
@colonelj I said everything I've got to say to the guy, and it's more or less the same thing I said in the thread yesterday. Sorry to disappoint but since he's been gone, it's been fine; someone's causing trouble and it's better if they stop, he left about a year ago, so there's not much to say besides "Don't come back starting shit." I don't have anything new to say about Gleason except that I called it and that I wish he wouldn't.

You ought to know that's not the deal; after I saw him blow up at me out of nowhere (all I'd posted was "Did Soapbox remove the tags from the body of the post? I hate that.") and then saw that he'd done that to everyone that had so much as mentioned the change, I concluded that he's a liability and said as much. He has, since then, burned every team that let him on. I was friends with graf when he disagreed on that point, and I am still friends with graf after he came to the same conclusion. done_told_everyone_about_gleason.png
@vriska@J@NonPlayableClown@colonelj Well, you're supposed to root for the home team, I guess, but you know, the Dodgers are *also* the money team but with less money than the Yankees plus it's hard to care about baseball and also that if the United States submits to a Division now it will not stop, but will go on until we reap the fate of Mexico, which is Eternal War. shermandidnothingwrong.jpe
@get@0@DiamondMind@Doll@Folklore@styx That's just because you're eating them wrong. When you eat Cool Ranch Dorito's, you're supposed to open the bag, light up a Newport, and ash into the bag before eating the chips.
@graf@alex@zucchini He can say what he wants, but he's making his big exit and trying to farm the last of the screenshots of his "persecution", so it won't make a difference to me what he says.
