Completely agree with this. I also like how topics are organized as one long conversation, as opposed to sometihing like Reddit.JAGzilla wrote: ↑Sun Nov 20, 2022 1:09 pm
As for the Twitter debate, I was actually referring to the character limit. It takes all the depth and nuance out of conversation and leaves people yelling simple blurbs at each other and unable to express complex ideas, just like 1984's Doublespeak. Here on TK, you can write a novel if you feel like it. Social media may be good for staying in touch with people, but traditional message boards are far and away the superior platform for actual discussion. Naturally, they're dying out.

It's just, like... ... ...what the fuck, man.
I can never comprehend how some people can be so evil.

Jason David Frank passing away really hurt. He abd the other power rangers were my first heroes even before Godzilla Spider-Man and Luke Skywalker.

Re: What ruined your day?
I missed three buses in a row after getting off work. The first one never showed up, the second one just passed me without stopping even after I waved to try and get the driver's attention, and the third was one I barely missed because my shoes were ill-equipped for running after I decided to just walk to the 2nd bus I was supposed to take to get home. I ended up getting home around 2 hours after I initially intended to as a result.

Without getting into it too much, a lot of stuff happening in my social life is driving me up a wall, and it's extra hard to handle this time of year. This is the first Thanksgiving I've had at home in years and it's bringing up a lot of grief due to family members that aren't here anymore. I had a good chat with a friend that turned my mood around, but yesterday I was more depressed than I've been in ages. Just gotta get through the rest of the day, I guess.

I feel that. I’ve been sick the past week and it’s killed my motivation to do anything, so I can only really lay around and scroll through various sites.

Re: What ruined your day?
Have you ever been a fan of a series, only for the creator be a horrible person?
I was becoming a fan of The Monument Mythos (an analog horror series) until.. yeah.

Re: What ruined your day?
Man, have I been your shoes. For me, it was Tribe Twelve (a Slenderman series; one of the major ones, in fact), and its creator turned out to be pretty much the same level of horrible. If my state (WI) hadn't already killed Slenderman, this was what put the final nail in the coffin for a lot of folks.Gigantis wrote: ↑Thu Dec 01, 2022 6:33 pm Have you ever been a fan of a series, only for the creator be a horrible person?

Re: What ruined your day?
I'll admit, hearing that some people can relate to my situation makes me feel a bit better. Thanks guys.
Well, I guess there's really nothing I can do but keep moving forward. There's probably tons of other creators worth my attention out there.

Re: What ruined your day?
It's just one of those days where nothing works, everything is stressful crap, I don't have what I need, certain people need to have their teeth punched down their throat, I can't catch a break any step of the way, I don't have time for any of this, and I have to work tonight.

It's like one of those days where you think there's a deity somewhere out there that's writing the whole thing on a script, and it all comes at your expense for their entertainment.JAGzilla wrote: ↑Fri Dec 02, 2022 9:51 am It's just one of those days where nothing works, everything is stressful crap, I don't have what I need, certain people need to have their teeth punched down their throat, I can't catch a break any step of the way, I don't have time for any of this, and I have to work tonight.
