  • I spoke with the moderation team for r/PublicFreakout, who told me: “It started with r/comics.” In late January, a cartoonist was permanently banned from the comics subreddit for “Nazi apologia,” after posting a comment dismissing the idea that Musk had made a Nazi salute at the inauguration (a gesture that, notably, had inspired a wide swath of moderators to block X links from their subreddits). Musk found that cartoonist’s tweet and called his ban “insane,” inspiring his followers to assail r/comics.

    That’s some bull shit. Well we are seeing a serge. So come on down! The fediverse will talk when reddit won’t allow you.

    I worked at a place that had crazy hours. People worked their tails off.

    Early on, I told them I was only going to do 9-5. Management was shocked that I actually kept that schdule. Unlimited vacation but no one used it…except me.

    It didn’t matter in the end. The entire company went bankrupt when the 2 founders committed bank fraud (they are now in jail). It didnt matter how much we worked, if the people in charge are dumb. I still got paid just as much as everyone else in the end, except I got to see my family/friends for that span of time.

    Work to live not live to work.
