I'll chime in for History.
But if the world doesn't end, I'm gonna need a note.

Our wings are not tired.
Don't know if my vote counts, but: History.

We're all out of Bitches.
Can we start a new one with the History title?
I must say, getting a raspberry in the 10,000th post is both insulting and oddly exhilirating.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh dang, now there's no free Stompies. Oh well. See, that's the problem with closing down a thread.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
It's up.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Hey, so, I was thinking--in the Tech thread, it might be useful to index some of our more helpful topics. Like, we've had some good discussions about Ubuntu, and iPods, and the relative merits of different phones, etc. Since we get asked some questions repeatedly, or for future reference for ourselves, I thought it might be a good idea.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
That's a really good idea, SA. I'm sure every time I ask something in Tech that I'm repeating a question that's been asked a zillion times.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Index how?

Nothing too fancy, just one or two people going through the most recent thread, maybe even the last two, and grabbing links to good discussion on topics we've handled in the past, then listing them in the tech thread to double check that they're still relevant or useful, then listing them in the slug, probably alphabetically. I don't anticipate it being more than about an hour's rifling, and the topics would be less than five things, which could be handled pretty easily in the thread slug as one single comma-abbreviated line.
