Overall its probably a good idea. If we cant create new posts then anonymization is probably for the best.
I had no idea there were nazi bars in subsās bldg, and given the $h!t Iām going thru trying to log in, post, and view othersā replies, my optimism is departing.
I donāt want my name associated with Substack. Anonymising should remove me from being Topic author, too.
Fuck 'em.
I havenāt gotten a reply to my request to anonymize it makes sense, Iām sure Orenwolf is busy. But I would like to know heās got a list going
There were a few people who really showed their true colors in the misogyny kerfluffle last year. They might already be members here so Iām not sure Iāll name names, but I wouldnāt be comfortable with a general invite.
Just my $0.02.
ETA: Did a quick search and didnāt find the ones I was worried about. Still, probably better to keep the invites to known good actors.
I just requested anonymization over there too. I want no part of supporting substack. Itās bad enough some of the content I am interested in is over there (e.g. erininthemorning) but I refuse to support it if I can help it.
And since most of the reason Iām even still on BB are among the people in this thread, I no longer want to be associated. Iāve been reading BB since 2003, and I mourn its loss. But if Iām honest, I havenāt even really read the blog in a few years.The AI posts and authors of dubious reality and unknown motives posting increasingly reactionary stuff has definitely not helped my thoughts on the place either.
Iām so glad this place exists so I donāt lose touch with yāall!
(I was known as AnnaTheWeird over there in case anyeone is wondering who I am)
Like many others, no doubt, I was thrilled and grateful! youād created those, and immediately applied 'em.
Is subextraordinaire on here?
ETA: Iād normally offer to go thru the invitation list & PM everyone I love, but my head is sooooooooooooo fucked right now
ETA: ā¦and I feel really guilty about it.
ETA: Is 1000YearBan on here?
Just DMād subextra.
Would be great to have them here.
Not remotely
Iām going with āBuck Bo Bucketā.
Maybe āAntler Derek Pumpkinā.
WTF kind of shit quiz is this?
How much buck would Bo Derek chuck if a buck could bucketā¦I dont know.
No, really, minutes later I canāt stop guffaswing
Glad U like them tooā¦hell, I love them. Still, Iāll wait to see if any objections are lodged, and I hope to fuck there arenāt.
Iām having a hard time tracking who is and isnāt here too. Yup, FGD is cool.
Is 10000 year ban here yet?
eta
shit. 1000yearban, the younger one.
I have messaged them privately. I already thought they were here
It would be so much easier for me were my brains not so damned scrambled. Iām efficient AF at shit like that when Iām OK. I could get thru that list of 100 in a matter of minutes. āYes. Yes. Yes! Yes. No.ā
Oh, and I better not get in trouble for my Detroit accent here. I saw a local punk bandās singer checking a mic at a show by repeating, āFuck, shit; fuck, shit;ā and no one even looked up.
Hell, Iām from and in Detroit, so itās fine with me. We know when to speak properly, and when to call a motherfucker a motherfucker, so we should be good.
