Bureaucracy 1: Like Kafka, Only Funnier  

A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

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

Got it, Sumi. Thanks.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Anyone want to go over the links page with a fine-toothed comb? I just cleaned up a little, but I'm sure stuff is outdated.

I will. I actually have time to breathe tonight.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I'm fine with politics in Natter, but if it were in its own thread I would be there.

Laura is me.

Thanks for all the fish.

I noticed that the thread lists in the FAQ need to be updated. It doesn't list all of the WX threads, and has some long closed threads as still being up and running.

That thing is so big now it might deserve it's own page off the FAQ.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Since we have the Old Threads Home (and no longer have to defend our thread-proliferation to other TTers) do we even need it at all?

Thanks for all the fish.

We probably don't need it... But I do like having the start and finish dates and, because I don't like to work these things out for myself, how long the threads lasted.

The current Archives have the start-finish dates. I don't think it would be too difficult to add the running times, but I also don't want to volunteer DX for more work, so I should probably let him answer.

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

Running times shouldn't be a problem. I have a drenload of threadsucks that I have to zip and put up, so I'll be working on the archive anyway.
