    Gross.... even Tildes cannot escape the increasing sexualization of public websites. We should maybe make the site invite only .

    Gross.... even Tildes cannot escape the increasing sexualization of public websites. We should start requiring state and federal U.S. government face recognition scans, and maybe make the site invite only too.

            While sending the children thoughts is quite respectable, I encourage you to also send prayers. This typically causes it to be twice again as convincing.

      Two gateways diverged in a reverse proxy, and tildes
      tildes took the one less traveled by,
      and that has caused all the errors.

      Or something like that.
