What would you like to see for the future of this sub / community?
Unfortunately, the listed mod here is *long gone*, and there's no one contributing Nathan's comics here, anymore. Which is a damn shame IMO, because they're pretty great, and are also like a... self-examination of what it means to be human, via seeing ourselves via alien eyes? Haha, something like that, anyway.
Unfortunately, my hands are full with my own project, and I'm modding a couple more, and yes, contributing to a dozen others (most of them history-related). So I'm sorry folks, but I personally can't take on this sublemmy on top of everything else. I really wish I could, I'm sincerely sorry, and... bah. Godammit.
Still, should we just let this place die out, though? I feel like that's not something we should collectively want.
Any ideas, folks?

Blocking domains is something I can do at the general user level, but seemingly I can't do it from the community I run. So in the past, I've had to block malicious bots by hand when they bother us. Fortunately that's happened only... once so far, I want to say.
Not sure what you mean by different file format.

Unfortunately, it seems that I can't add risqué domains to my communities block list via current PF software. Perhaps in future?

One of the things that truly infuriated me upon this kind of mindset was when my late mom (and certified master gardener) replaced our traditional grass, backyard lawn with a clover lawn, and then after she'd passed, my stepdad immediately deciding to tear it all down because it wasn't 'lawnmower-friendly.' (meaning in his mind, it might kick up hidden rocks, etc)
IIRC though, the *whole point* of the clover lawn was that it never needed mowing, and was a far more natural-arrangement of plant species in meadows, etc.
Dammit... the landslide of stoopid shit that we naked apes normalise ourselves upon is just... head-shaking, at times.

(as seen at the evil empire, but I just had to liberate it)
So, uh... what's your pizza-disaster story, y'all? I'll go first.
Me, I used to deliver for Domino's, and it was *tonnes* more fun than I'd imagined. First order of business was getting myself this freakin' awesome powered-spotlight that plugged in to the cigarette lighter in my car, nominally so as to throw a spotlight on street addresses, at need. But hoh-my-god, that sucker was fun to play around with in general.
Also, like Ed Grimley, "I must say" that the tips were unusually good, to supplement the standard shit-wages of a delivery-boy. This was in 1990 btw, so wow... 36yrs ago, now. Tempus fugit, nonne?
Anyway, my most awkward encounter ever was the time I made a delivery, placed the pizza directly in to the man's hands, and... for whatever reason(s) he dropped it. Right in front of me. Right between us. Probably one of the earliest scammers I ever dealt with, but it was hella embarrassing and awkward, dammit. I sure as heck didn't know what to do or say...
How about you. Got anything..?

A good number of strips will be pre-cropped, or the equivalent. So what you'd really want when the signature's missing is to have the poster do reverse-image as necessary so as to identify the creator, making sure to include that information.
There's also the fact that doubtless there will be posters ignoring such a rule / guideline, ideally necessitating mod intervention. Meanwhile, the one and only mod looks like they haven't been active in a month.
¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

And... that's what got him fired from SNL.

Absolutely amazing photo, from almost every direction imaginable.
Btw, what was that Sherlock Holmes' story again, in which most of the main characters lived fairly upright lives, but there was this specific brat (seen here on the right), who didn't give a shizzle 'pon any such stuff.
This photo is both amazing and hilarious.

Keeping in mind that I didn't use Digg much back in the day, I don't really understand the idea of re-launching a service that fell out of use in the first place.
Or if MySpace (etc) was to relaunch with modern features, could it expect to succeed out of nostalgia, or something..?

Interesting. Kinda looks like TexMex lasagna.

Um, do I need to do anything in particular to see the 2nd pic?
Btw, one thing I've noticed around here is that sometimes the AQI can be pretty bad in terms of raw score, but it can be mostly down to ozone issues, in which I understand that staying above ground level will mostly keep you out of risk.
So... any idea what the specific breakdown scores are for your local AQI quotient?
