it's ok! its really just them saying "Please don't touch me =("
but it really is a bit jarring the first time you hear it.
Tina turner popped into my head because of this comment.
what's .world when this post is on feddit.uk? what's .world got to do, got to do with it? who needs .world when you have your own instaaance?
i am so sorry for this.
you know? that's fair. but it also made me extremely nervous when I hadn't been moments before.
went from skittering around panicking to "I will mess you up >=( I'm dangerous! HISSSSS! LOOK HOW SCARY!"
its called "Stridulation" and its something a lot of centipedes can do.
scared the crap out of me the first time I heard it when I was trying to put one in a cup and take it outside. lol
it seems he had banned a user for account names that were inappropriate and is being accused of being transphobic as a result.
i didn't see any evidence in the screen shots posted that shows he did anything harmful. just a lot of accusations.

files they've downloaded off the internet. its much easier for them and they only need to do a quick frontend to make it look official.
ezpz.

good lord. that just started out bad and started spiraling into absolute chaos really REALLY fast.
i didn't know the extent. that is fucking hellish.
edit: why the downvotes? am I missing something? I'd appreciate being informed if I'm wrong.
my TV incurred my wrath by having the gall to show me a banner ad while I was in the middle of a game.
so I promptly cut its balls off. (disabled the internet entirely). now it is a dumb TV. and it behaves like a TV. and not an ad machine.
