RULES (updated 01/22/25)

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling. To be concise, disrespect is defined by escalation.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible. You won't be punished for trying.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (politics or societal debates come to mind, though we are not saying not to talk about anything that resembles these). There's a guide in the protocol book offered as a mod model that can be used for that; it's vague until you realize it was made for things like the rule in question. At least four purple answers must apply to a "controversial" message for it to be allowed.
  4. Keep it clean and SFW: No illegal content or anything gross and inappropriate. A rule of thumb is if a recording of a conversation put on another platform would get someone a COPPA violation response, that exact exchange should be avoided when possible.
  5. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc. The chart redirected to above applies to spam material as well, which is one of the reasons its wording is vague, as it applies to a few things. Again, a "spammy" message must be applicable to four purple answers before it's allowed.
  6. Respect privacy as well as truth: Don’t ask for or share any personal information or slander anyone. A rule of thumb is if something is enough info to go by that it "would be a copyright violation if the info was art" as another group put it, or that it alone can be used to narrow someone down to 150 physical humans (Dunbar's Number) or less, it's considered an excess breach of privacy. Slander is defined by intentional utilitarian misguidance at the expense (positive or negative) of a sentient entity. This often links back to or mixes with rule one, which implies, for example, that even something that is true can still amount to what slander is trying to achieve, and that will be looked down upon.

Ear worm? Pink Pony Club - Chappell Roan. Do I like it? No, but I hear on the radio and that damn song is caught in my head for an hour or more. But I guess that’s the definition of an ear worm.

I've been reading some news on Gen-Z types not taking any shit anymore and as a result I've got The Who's "The Kids Are Alright" echoing in my head.

Gypsy Woman (She’s Homeless) - Crystal Waters This song is so dumb and so amazing at the same time, I love it. Great dance song. Homeless - Mr. belt & Wezol is a solid remix too

Across Dimming Asterisms. My brain seems to have developed an addiction to it.

My friends were all saying how the tiger and cow always turned out evil, and I didn't dare tell them about my fluffy white tiger...

Watched Emilia Pérez lately and didn't really like it but the song Para has stuck with me since then.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

This song came on in the morning and its still rumbling around my brain

Dead inside (Shiv-r remix)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Whatever Daisuke Ishiwatari comes up with next. Right now it's Radiant Dawn , Dizzy's theme from Guilty Gear Strive. Thought it was cool at first, nothing mind blowing. Now I can't stop hearing it in my head.

Volbeat - Shotgun Blues

This is a couple years old but I only discovered it last week. It is some heavy metal with riffs that remind me of the golden era
