#moderator openings

[bobacupcake]

i think whatever the next "social media" is in howeverr many years after all the current ones finally fall apart i think every person should have a dedicated timeline for like, posts your friends want you to see. like you know how youll see a post and be like "i have GOT to send this to greg" so you send it to greg or tag it #greg but what if there was like. a dedicated greg timeline that all of gregs friends could add posts to. and then greg wakes up in the morning and gets a timeline full or good or maybe bad posts tailored specifically to him. anyways that's what i think ^_^

was thinking about your post about erik being a whimpering mess when he's about to come and first of all you're SO right also i love this dynamic of bossy bottom charles and service top erik bc i think erik (based on looks/first impressions/personality cause i think it works for both comics!cherik and movieverse!cherik) would think charles is shy/submissive and then he's baffled (in the best possible way) to know that charles is actually a freaky freak in bed, and the opposite goes to charles, he'd think erik super dominant in bed when in reality he's extremely attentive and in tune with his partner's needs, almost shy in the way he's so careful and polite (i mean have you seen canon erik that man is built like a refrigerator) and just erik "i destroy everything i touch" mindset in general, he'd be very very careful with charles. ANYWAY what i was thinking is: charles bossing erik around on the bed and being such a massive dirty talker and it turns erik on SO MUCH he starts to lose focus on what's he's doing!!!!!!!! like charles being super vocal in bed and not being able to shut the fuck up because he cant stop babbling about how erik makes him feel so good and how big he is or how good erik is for him or how he wants to have erik inside him all the time and since erik is so dedicated to charles' pleasure he wants charles to come first but but charles keeps clenching so tight around him and moaning non stop and it feels so good !!!!! he's trying so hard !!!!!! all the metal in the room is also screaming with charles and erik is not even aware of losing control of his powers until they're done and the scent of melted metal makes him jump a little

asks like these are so dangerous for me cause when i say i just sat here for like twenty minutes thinkina these two suckin and fuckin like crazy...... PEAK !!!!!

Extending Mod applications!

Hello everyone! We had very few applicants for mod positions, so we are extending Mod applications until the 14th of this month!

If we cannot reach our minimum mod requirement, we will--unfortunately--not be continuing the project. This was a very hard decision to make, and we are attempting to find alternative avenues to continue the project; but we are currently very very limited.

If we cannot continue the current project, rest assured! We will be opening the project again in October for round 2!

Thank you so much for your current support, and we hope to see you soon! form below the break!

I gotta be completely honest with you, I'm a little frustrated with the people who interact with this blog. I don't want to be rude, especially not to you the mod, but seeing how popular the added "unsure" and "haven't heard of this" options can be for some polls, I feel like it takes from the poll entirely. For example, the recent one about Sonic Omens. I think that anyone who doesn't have a leg in the race just shouldn't vote, and the poll isn't for them. I feel like including options for people who can't even answer the question sort of messes with the data. I only mean this as constructive criticism, not to cause harm or hate, and I hope to hear your side of it, as well as submitters who make the polls. What do you think?

This, too, is data I must learn. My thoughts are under the cut, thank you for your feedback.

Joking aside, I understand the point, but I moderately disagree.

For the past month or so this blog has been running completely on user submissions. I only edit options to add something I think is missing and will result in unnecessary distress (see: the lack of chill on the first Sonic Voice Actor Poll. Lest we forget.). I do not currently remove options; I presume people meant what they said unless they tell me otherwise.

I do understand that some polls may have a lot of people choosing the opt out option, and that could pose specific problems. I don't think I agree with your example for this: I for one had never heard of that project, so would have voted the opt out option. And while I could and possibly would just ignore that poll, there's a chance someone might just pick or guess any answer if their response is not encapsulated in the options. People are nosy. They want to know the results even if they don't know anything about the topic.

Also, you can always calculate the proportion of the votes that went to each without the cop-out option with some simple percentage calculations. So the data isn't invalidated, the sample is just smaller. That is also data: it tells you many people aren't aware of or engaged with that topic. I think that is interesting too.

Where I could see your point is on more general but difficult things. If I listed a poll like 'Who's better: Shadow or Sonic?' I expect many people would want to click the cop-out option because they really like both, and there I would lose data. Because if they were really pushed, they could probably manage an opinion, but it would be easier (and give the gratification of button pressing) if they can not think about it and choose a 'I refuse!' button.

However, even in such cases I still think it's important that I do not edit people's polls to remove catch-all options if they have listed them. For all I know, the submitter was actually interested in capturing data on how many people would refuse to answer, and would be dissappointed to have that option removed.

My final note is I have found myself feeling quite protective of my submitters, especially those I suspect are regulars. This is not a massive blog being overwhelmed with asks. I would have given up already without them, I used nearly all of my ideas to get to past the first 100 polls. So if the polls are mislisted, contain errors, or you have grievances with them: raise those with me, that's my job. Give the submitters the kudos for providing the entertainment. I am not the last person you should be rude to but the first.

I don't want to ask voters to do anything except vote honestly, even if the answer is they don't know, and share questions they like. If they could continue to refrain from starting barfights on my posts that would also be swell. But I guess enthusiasm is appreciated.

Those who've read my essay here, please do leave your thoughts on the subject in the replies - I will be reading with interest and will let it impact my own polls, if not alter the submissions. Genuinely, thank you for the ask and your interest in the data we're making here, I am pleased that you are invested and like me want good data!

something that still baffles me looking back is when me and some of the other guys at the escape room i worked at decided to all get lockpicking gear and learn how to pick locks, partly because that was a skill that really came in handy in an escape room for reasons you can imagine, but partly also because it just sounded like a fun thing to learn and do with your hands. and whenever we would talk about it, everyone else at that job would always be like..... "but is that legal? are you really sure thats legal? can you just buy those tools? legally? youre not telling anyone youre getting these, right? youre not telling anyone youre learning this? this illegal activity?" and its still so..... theyre just tools. its just knowledge. no you fucking pussy bootlicker its not illegal and even if it were, then it shouldnt be. its a skill not a crime. what are you talking about

i love franklydear as much as the next guy, but i have to admit i’m always a little thrown off by how much fanwork portrays them as married from the get-go, because part of the appeal of franklydear for me is the prospect of someone having their gay awakening while also experiencing the muppets’ adaptation of silent hill.

[baddybaddyadardaddy]

omg covid shot and the flu shot on the same day was a BIG MISTAKE. 🥴🥴

who has comforting Adar headcanons to share??? how would our dear baddydaddy care for a sick/injured partner?? (or a sick child??)

[unopenablebox]

the georgia o'keefe + henry moore exhibit at the mfa is in fact really well curated to give the viewer a couple of really intense RESONATING FORMS moments due to juxtaposed painting and sculpture. also i think it made me understand and therefore like georgia o'keefe more

🐓 LOOKING FOR MODS! 🐍 Our Dungeon Meshi zine moderator applications will remain open until April 25th. We’d especially love to see more art, production, and formatting applications, as these are the areas we’ve seen the least apps in! We are also looking for a social media and a writing moderator.

APPLY TO BE A MOD HERE!

Make sure you’ve filled out our INTEREST CHECK!

We’ll be opening up our contributor (artist and writer) applications in just a month or two. Make sure you don’t miss it by signing up for our mailing list.

I sure would love if people stopped looking at all that’s wrong with my body that clearly matches up with POTS and EDS and saying “oh! You’re just anxious and fat! Here take a vitamin and your none stop pain of at least 5 years will go away :)”

Fuck off. Vitamins aren’t going to get rid of my chronic back and knee pain or constantly high resting heart rate bitch. Maybe listen to what I’m actually saying for once instead of looking at my anxiety and weight and ignoring my actual lives experience.
