Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Bureaucracy 2: Like Sartre, Only Longer  

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.

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

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Please please please, can we stop talking about her here? At least take it to natter or something.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Lance says he can't delete the threads, because he doesn't like the precedent it sets -- they are in a "free for all" section of the site, after all.

He's suggested putting a disclaimer and re-pointer in the header -- I asked him if he could put it in each "real" thread, and also if he could remove "Buffistas" from the thread names.

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

No pointers, would be my wish. I'm all from removing our name from the folder header, and if you'd like to remove your picture, could that be done?

But I don't want to leave any breadcrumbs in those threads at all.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Yeah, I can see his no-delete position, but if he can change the name, then I don't think you need either the disclaimer or the pointer, really.

What Michele said. Just ask him to drop the word "Buffista".

I'm concerned that not everyone will know where we've moved.

If she follows and re-registers to avoid our blocks, he will then take action.

ita, I know you posted this once, but could you post the new PF link again?
