Reddit decided to get a lil fashy and start banning people even for just upvoting shit.

As good as can be expected after getting perma-banned on reddit for violating rules with multiple accounts just hours before my 7-day temp ban for 'encouraging violence' was lifted on appeal, despite only ever having had 1 account in my entire 14 years of using reddit.

I'm new myself, thanks for the recommendations. While you're at it, do you happen to know of any good political/religion debate .. subs? what are they called here? I'm going to call them subs for now. Maybe some Anarchist and non-tankie Communist subs?

I just arrived today myself, after being temp-banned for 7 days for some bullshit reasons that the appeal team agreed were bullshit so they unbanned me, but not before someone else perma-banned me for violating the rules on 'my other accounts' -- I've had a single reddit account for the entire 14 years I've been there, I don't even make throwaways, so, even more bullshit. I appealed that one too, but even if it's overturned I'm not sure I'm going back. They've gotten real fucking fashy all of a sudden with the censorship, banning people for upvoting shit and calling it 'inciting violence.' Fuck 'em.

That headline should read 'Capitalist enterprise unsurprisingly open to the idea of making shitloads of money, but we like money too so we wrote an article about something that shouldn't be news even to small children.'

For me it's MorningLightMountain and the Primes in general in Peter F. Hamilton's Commonwealth trilogy. It was just a really cool and unique idea for an alien species, and Hamilton succeeded in making it feel truly alien, explaining its motivations, etc. It was just a really well-realized aspect of the world.

Is.. is that building bent? Look at the very top row, the first 6 windows all extend a uniform distance below the top edge of the image, so the camera is straight-on to them (horizontally anyway), but from #7 on they get progressively lower indicating that section of the building is at an angle to the camera.

I know, it's a weird thing to fixate on, but.. ADHD brain is ADHD. :P

You know, I'm 52 years old and I don't think I've ever seen an up-close picture of yak that gave a good sense of scale. Those things are just cold-weather banthas.

lol, I got temp-banned for 'encouraging violence' for saying Luigi didn't deserve to go to jail. I appealed it, they revoked the temp ban, but several hours prior to that I got perma-banned for violating the rules on multiple accounts. Motherfucker I've had ONE account for 14 years, I don't even make throwaways like most people, so there's no way you caught me on multiple accounts, you're just making shit up at this point.

I mean, if you believe Camus, yes?
