  • Its still a shame that I will never recommend this place to anyone I know until the community changes here.

    Its a bit chicken and the egg cause we likely need one for the other. But with the users proclivity for bans, and blocks you end up with a user base even smaller and discussion that more feels like a battle to be right most of the time because intellectual superiority is looked up to rather than conversation.

    I still think a community of people competing to be the most right in every comment section does not lead to actual community and doesn’t even help provide facts or info to most communities when there are not many niches to which people in here can participate in. Objective facts work best not in fandoms but in crafts. Like what glue doesn’t melt Styrofoam when doing prop building not which show or game is best.

    I may be alone in this but I yearn for “the normies”.

    Its also the birthday and death day of Akira Yoshizawa, the grandmaster of Origami who rose the craft to an art form.

    Also if you manage to die on the day of your birth by natural causes at 94 I think you deserve extra credit.

    The art is honored for his incredible work standardizing it, he really was a treasure







  • It boils down to a collection of reasonable thoughts and requests for a good protest and while I am participating through the sheer audacity that I purchase something every day like the people doing shein hauls makes me cringe it does not change my normal economic activity and therefore doesn’t change the companies you hope to take notice bottom line.

    It’s about having people actually take some time to have critical thoughts about their actions and the ones we want to do to make changes.

    Your dismissal is exactly how this fails to enact change.
