Shit, I Have NOT Been Keeping Up With This Page!

Real talk, I can get away with capitalising every word because that's the title of this blog post: shit, I have NOT been keeping up with this page.

Typing Like This makes me unreasonably angry when done in any other scenario other than proving a point of how annoying it is.

Anyway, have some art.

...Shit, I just realised it's been a month since I drew the robot, and I still haven't given her a name.

"Hiiii."

Just a Discord emoji I created featuring Tim Tim (use in your servers if you want, just make sure to give proper credit in the emoji name!)

Was also curious if I still liked how pure black outlines looked.

Needed a Pokémon reminder that the “pro-LGB without the T” people aren’t welcome on my blog either, no matter how hard you try to justify narrowed-down hate, so made another edit.

Reminder: harassing anyone who is excited about the Switch 2 is unproductive and solves nothing.

I'm probably not going to pick one up (particularly in a world where the Lenovo Legion Go exists), but those who do aren't necessarily bad people.

If you want to boycott, fine. But people have the right to be excited about the Switch 2.

TVT Adminpocalypse

TW: transphobia, acephobia, bullying, suicide

Hey, for those of you not aware, TV Tropes has gotten very bad in the last six or so months. I'll do my best to give a short summary.

2022: Fighteer, a mod notorious for using his post to bully others, takes a self-imposed leave after several users call him out on this pattern of behavior. Due to user backlash at general moderator behavior, a mod code of conduct was established. While self-enforced, the moderator discussion thread existed, in part, to discuss future incidents.

September 2023: User AgProv is suspended for calling Dylan Mulvaney a man. In his appeal, he tries to get around the issue by using they/them pronouns. Though Mulvaney uses both she/her and they/them, as this appeal was clearly done in bad faith, AgProv had been bounced from the site. A few hours later, however, Kory, a site programmer, unilaterally overrides the bounce on behalf of otherwise non-present site owners, citing he was a productive user with several edits. When called out on this, Kory doubled down, using thumps and suspensions to shut down conversation. Notably, AgProv was later suspended for messy editing, but to this day has not needed to appeal his transphobia suspension through the typical process.

Later that month: Fighteer is asked back by the admins, citing a need for manpower. Fighteer's "apology" amounts to being burnt out and justifying his meanness as being an "equal opportunity" bad cop. He promises to step back from areas of the site where he'd been an issue previously. This does not last. By the end of this one-two punch, the moderator discussion thread is reworked into a narrow policy clarification thread with issues of misconduct being exclusively handled by emailing the admins.

Past seven days: Fighteer makes a post in the social media thread stating that people threatening suicide over a possible TikTok ban should just do it. In another post, he considered this an act of terrorism. These post were thumps, but no other visible disciplinary action was taken. This is despite the US Politics thread being closed for celebrating the death of Henry Kissinger. Again, attempts at discussion were swiftly shut down. Notably, Kory all but stated that Fighteer, despite all the issues, was worth having as a mod.

So for anyone reading, consider spreading the word. While that alone won't fix the underlying problem of private tech companies pushing for content at the expense of user experience, if enough people, and especially, advertisers, catch wind of this, it may create enough of a PR disaster where the administrators will change course rather than quintuple down. For anyone who, understandably, does not wish to do that, then please, if you haven't already, get an ad blocker and make sure it's on for that site.

Thanks!
