    On the second point… I remember when moss had to make one, because of exactly that issue.

    He should have told you that, it really isn’t a new thing. It’s also not an Ada thing, it’s not her fault and it’s really not unreasonable to expect mods to… actually be able to read all reports.

    I’d be willing to do some “grunt mod work” for 196. Actual decision-making and community-building would probably take too much time for me to be reliable on it, but just dealing with reports I could do.



  • It’s bad. The original question is being used as a… standard conversation piece, here (though I’ve never heard that one IRL, I’m not surprised). Like “How are you”, “good, how about you”, “good” (which is in reality pretty much just a greeting), the person in the meme is saying “i’m sorry, I don’t have an excuse for my behavior” (“sorry I’m crazy”).

    The expected response is reassurance on the second part (“no you’re not” to “I’m crazy”), but the received response is reassurance on the first (“it’s okay” to “sorry”). This implies that the other person does believe the first person is crazy, but the first person didn’t actually 100% mean the “I’m crazy” bit, so it’s an accidental insult that the first person can’t actually contest in any way and it hurts more because the other person must believe that for real. Therefore, unpleasant, but keeping it in. Hence the face.

    Hope that made some sense!













  • Ngl that link puts me slightly off. It reads exactly like what people booted for very good reasons say

    The following paragraph shows how so-called cancel culture was used weaponising […]

    And in the email, Mozilla talks about him violating their “inclusivity” policy… we also don’t know what was reported, only the reasons stated.

    Not saying that it wasn’t unjust, just that we only have 1 perspective and it’s written in a way that raises some red flags.
