Given what brought this space into being, I wouldn’t rule out anything on the grounds of hypocrisy. He’s already leaning towards us being damaging to his brand. In a space where he can’t bring out the ban hammer?
Besides, is he really the anti-SLAPP guy, or is that more Rob and Corey?

That remind me. I have used Rabbit with an anime group to have a weekly movie night. Once the dust settles down that could be a fun activity.
For those that haven’t used it. Everyone that signs up (free) gets a room? In a room you have a virtual web browser and a chat window. Invite people to room, use the browser to load a movie from any web based source and chat away while the movie plays. Control can be passed from the room owner to any of the guests.

The other thing about it being a Stonecutter’s lodge is that that lends itself really well to a subscription-based model where members divvy up the costs of maintenance (and maybe a buck or two?) instead of resorting to banner ads and native advertising. For a Stonecutter’s lodge, it’s easy to say “Congratulations, you’ve found us, but if you want to be in on this, you have to be interested enough to support the site.”
If that doesn’t scale, then so be it. The purpose is just for us to have a gathering place where the members are in the driver’s seat.

The board I modded had a chat feature and that always got weirdly flirty for any M-F interaction. There was one woman who had 4 men who independently revealed to me that she was their “true love.” No idea what was going on when they got on the Chat. But I think video kind of adds a layer of reality to it that makes it less prone to the oddness. I use Zoom a lot in my startup business. Just adds so much fun to a long distance talk to be on camera.

I do, but I’m not sure how I’m going to handle that yet. We’re having some discussions about that. I’ll keep you posted.

Do internal links not work right, or is that a trust level thing?

Ask me about the time my brother fell deeply, madly in love with a “lingerie model” who then “died tragically” while he was trying to take a trip cross country, missing our sister’s wedding, to say farewell to his one true love on her death bed.
TLDR: married, “lingerie” as in “Big Boobs Magazine”, not dead
