What are moderators supposed to see? I was added as a moderator on m/stinkbadgers and I can’t see any panel with tools. The only thing that’s different since I was made a moderator is that I have a “moderate” option in the “more” menu on any thread or comment
This was exactly my experience. Worked as a sub while considering going into teaching… everyone told me to get out, do anything else.
Take on me is a great one! but gotta get the voice really warmed up to have a chance at it
My #1 karaoke song is Rehab by Amy Winehouse
Making things more vertical is always good. Find ways to hang things on walls or put up shelves. Accessory items (necklaces, scarves, sunglasses) are good candidates for hanging up. You could even hang up some commonly used cables for easy access. You can buy things to mount with lots of hooks, or just hang stuff on pushpins or jumbo pushpins… or hang up some sort of rope-y thing and hang stuff off of that.
You could consider IKEA cube storage units (KALLAX)… there can also be versions of these at other stores. You can even stack one on top of your dresser. (be careful it won’t fall over and crush anyone). IKEA has inserts that fit perfectly into their cubes to add drawers or subdivide into two smaller shelves. You can also get cube shaped storage basket things that fit in this style of furniture.
Check out storage containers geared towards people who do arts & crafts, you can find some interesting storage options there ,particularly if you have a lot of small items to sort
My ideal system would have two things to vote on… whether you like/agree with a comment and whether you think it contributes to the discussion. So you could upvote an entertaining quippy comment but also vote that it doesn’t really contribute anything meaningful, and you could downvote something you disagree with while still indicating it adds to the discussion.
I doubt people would use it correctly, but I think its a nice idea in theory.
I used to enjoy this series of VHS tapes in the late 80s called “Terrific Trips” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrhVMYKOhvQ
Wow Furcadia is still a thing? I remember it being around like… idk… 20 years ago. If its still going, that’s pretty cool. I love when old parts of the internet are still there, just chugging away in their own little corner.
That’s a good question. Some anime styles, definitely not. Other anime styles, maybe. But it definitely doesn’t feel “childish” to me in the same way anthropomorphic animals do. It may be my personal experience. I associate anthropomorphic animals, and the particular art style of furries, to media I consumed between the ages of like 2 and 8. I wasn’t exposed to anime until I was a young teenager, so it doesn’t really have that association with childhood for me.
I really do find it fascinating to analyze these biases, because I do consider it an irrational bias that I have. I can analyze the reasons for it, but it isn’t really a logic, just a feeling.
I find the anthropomorphic children’s cartoon aesthetic of furries to be extremely cringe. Its juvenile and ugly, and then when its sexualized or people are making fursuits, it becomes exponentially more cringe.
I think if furries had a better art style and less weirdly anthropomorphized, I might even be on board.

"Mephitidae is a family of mammals comprising the skunks and stink badgers. " I propose our goal is broadening the name stink badgers to include the entire family Mephitidae and we can still proceed as planned.
You can create it and we co-moderate.
I’m thinking plural, one word, and either all lowercase or just the first letter capital. stinkbadgers or Stinkbadgers
Friendship always comes before the stink badger agenda.
I will begin collecting and producing stink badger content immediately
Okay here are my ideas.
Let’s make it happen. The name “trash pandas” has caught on for raccoons. We can do the same for skunks, which will henceforth be known as stink badgers
So do you think infinite monkeys using infinite typewriters over infinite time, wouldn’t necessarily produce the works of Shakespeare? I’ve always been suspicious of that idea.
Thigh highs don’t enslave, they support and embrace the legs
Pants enslave your legs. Free yourself.
I used to dream about my teeth falling out pretty often, and then those dreams stopped. I think its because as I’ve gotten older, the idea of losing my teeth doesn’t freak me out anymore. My subconscious has removed that nightmare from the regular rotation since its no longer effective.
I never considered starting from the bottom as a possibility. How did I never consider this?
It’s spoons because the person originated the idea was at a restaurant and trying to come up with a way to explain her situation to a friend, and just grabbed whatever was nearby which happened to be a bunch of spoons. Then the story went viral and it stuck.
I’d like to call them “action points”
