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!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I agree with JZ (and many others). I'm sorry you had to deal with that, Jessica.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

For various reasons, none related to my own experiences, which have always been pleasant, I found what was being said starting last night on Twitter impossible to dismiss, excuse, or ignore. So.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Thank you for sharing that, Jessica.

I can't seem to find the start of anything on Twitter. Just circular post-game analysis.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Jess, I'm so sorry he did that to you. I know in the past I've noticed behavior from him that bordered on creepy, but nothing that I thought rose to the level of something that the community needed to address. But it does make me inclined to believe those speaking out now, and I'm horrified to think we've lost community members because of him.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I'm sorry, Jessica. I know it isn't worth much to say so now, but had any of known back then, we would have bounced his ass. I hate that you had to deal with that discomfort alone.

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

I hate that you had to deal with that discomfort alone.

This.
