Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!  

We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!

Always Anti-fascist!

I'm torn, because he got on my nerves a lot, but this is a "win" I can't relish.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

As far as I'm concerned, I haven't had any problems with him. But I don't feel like those who've had should feel obligated to post any details they don't want to. As a society, I hope we're getting past the point of seeing woman after woman say "This happened to me," and disbelieving them.

Dana speaks for me. I've no need for testimony, you have my consent to ban.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

What Hil said. I've never had any problems with him myself, at all, but it's deeply upsetting to know that other long-time Buffistas have come to feel so uncomfortable around him that they have chosen to exclude themselves from the community. And it's important because, as a community, we make it such a priority to connect F2F as well as on the board; if multiple people are opting out of engaging at all in order to avoid one person, that's a problem for the whole community.

I just wanted to make it clear that I'm not, like, licking my chops over this...I wouldn't even consider our twice-yearly blow-outs anything to be concerned about...however, I'm not astounded about what I've been hearing so I guess I'd support the ban.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm sure no one is happy to be doing this. I'm certainly not.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I searched on his real name and his Twitter handle @ghostwritingcow and am turning up nothing. Can someone please link to evidence?

Punishingly Intricate

I agree 100%.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Following stuff chronologically on Twitter is tough, but there's a lot of discussion at [link] and [link]

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Also, I'm not proposing this on the basis of what hasn't or hasn't happened on Twitter, but because of stuff that's happened here (or to people here).
