Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

After Caroma posted what many found to be an inflammatory post in Natter this morning, a request was posted in bureaucracy for an official action. The required ten seconds were obtained, and an official stompy warning has been issued. The discussion begins here: Wolfram "Bureaucracy 2: Like Sartre, Only Longer" Jul 25, 2003 6:47:35 am PDT

If anyone has jobma to spare, pass it on! There may be a long-term temp thing headed my way, and I kind of desperately need the money. Crossed fingers would be appreciated.

Today is System Administrator Appreciation Day.

I'd like to extend the definition of SysAdmin to our wonderfully helpful Stompy Feet and the technical folks who wrote and administer this site, and thus take a moment to thank all y'all. You Guys Rock!

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

For those who don't know what to give their sysadmin: This is better than nothing.

Previously, on we all just did a buncha drugs...

Plei announced here that LightBulb was opened to discuss a proposal Jim made, to modify the sources that make casting news casting news rather than spoilers.

Jim's original proposal is reposted by Teppy, here.

After about a thousand posts (yes) voicing concerns, looking for clarifications, voicing objections (all of which you can read for yourselves), Elena summed up some more of the recent concerns and ambiguities, here.

Kristen suggested modification to the proposal, here.

JIM - you'll want to pay attention to these posts, and I'm sure there are others in the thousand, that need your attention, too. But these seem to be the highlights.

As proposer, you are responsible for deciding how you want to word the final ballot. (I'm thinking you know that, but am not sure).

Anyone else who wants to check out the discussion might want to hit these highlights as well.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

As per last week's discussion in Bureaucracy, there was a bullshit majority agreement that UK fans of Firefly could temporarily call the Firefly Spoilers thread home, so that they could safely discuss the episodes unaired in the US without getting spoiled themselves for episodes they haven't yet seen.

"Trash" talk begins with Post 247 in the Spoiler thread. From there, going forward, there will be no talk in the Spoiler thread about "The Message" until July 28, "Heart of Gold" until Aug. 4, and "Object in Space" until Aug. 11.

I updated the thread slugs to reflect this.
