As we witness more and more corporations buying big platforms and mistreating them and their userbases, I think it's save to say that websites could completely vanish from one day to the next.
One of the absolute worst offenders of that is Yahoo/Verizon (who also own Tumblr and killed Geocities, Polyvore, parts of Flickr, all their Yahoo! sub websites like Yahoo Answers,-Blog,-Video, del.icio.us and many more) who now actively tried to prevent archival of their latest victim "Yahoo Groups" (if you want to read about it, here's a summary: https://www.extremetech.com/internet/303208-verizon-bans-archivists-trying-to-save-yahoo-groups-data-from-deletion).

Even Twitter startet to delete accounts who haven't logged in for 6 months, starting on December 11th this year.

Are there any websites or blogs you achived or you think are important and worth to be saved as a part of internet history?
Are you salty about a website that got nuked in an unfair way?
Any other thoughts regarding Internet History? Are you worried?
Discuss and Vent.

Ask for something you want, nonnies may deliver it - or not.

>How it differs from the "help me find" thread?
You're not necessarily asking for something you have seen/had before. It's more about asking for something that you want that may or may not exist, and be on anyone's possessions be made by anons.

Examples:
>Requesting a retro game file instead of just asking what is that obscure game you vaguely remember from your childhood
>Asking for more tech savvy and bored anons to do a gif or WebM for you
>Asking for a trustworthy pirating site for any media
>Etc etc

I'm curious about how "the gaze" affects art, because I did not realize most of the art that I consumed and internalized was drawn with the male gaze until recently. I was curious to see if it extended into academic settings, since I noticed a good portion of the women Loomis has drawn are wearing heels. I'm not saying his work hasn't been very helpful to me, I just want to look around.

So when I was around 11-12 my parents forced me to go to this charter school I hated going to and I despised everyone there. I had no friends, and I didn’t really have anyone supportive around me so I would lash out in anger by doing stupid shit like clogging all the toilets in the bathroom with toilet paper and paper towels so no one could use the bathroom. Eventually I started doing it so the toilet would flood the bathroom and it would be out of order all day. I did this to several of the girls bathrooms at a time, and I never got caught.

It didn’t make the cut because they said it wasn’t different enough from PTSD so doctors should just diagnose people with that. It seemed like it would be added for a while there. The definition of PTSD has changed a lot in the DSM over the years and I believe they even changed the category it was under (moved from an anxiety disorder to a trauma related [no shit] disorder or something.) Everything I’ve read says the DSM kinda sucks and doesn’t get used the way the creators intended and in some ways it’s used to gatekeep services so insurance doesn’t have to pay for it but that’s kind of a whole thing to get into.

Are you sure? It definitely seems like it's the mental illness du jour at the moment. It only is under-diagnosed because they can't officially diagnose it if they use the DSM.

No. 1592177

>>1592039
The health and longer life thing are kind of a myth. With mutts you never know what you're going to get, and they tend to have a lot of issues as well and the owners are going to be unprepared for it. With a breed you know which ones are more likely to have certain health issues and breeders will actively try to breed them out. Also the oldest dogs in the world were/are all of breed.

I have noticed that mutts are way more retarded than other type of dogs that were bred (pitbulls being an exception - they are the most retarded and inbred of them all). Whenever I see people with mutts, they are never well-trained, and always have other issues. I wonder if it's because breeds have been bred for a specific purpose and mutts then get confused because of all the different DNA they have. That, and the fact so many 'mixed breeds' are just pit mixes now.

It takes longer to become a train conductor than a pilot. Reason being you have one course for train driving to become professional but for flight you can become licensed to fly people in less time. Only being head pilot for an airline likely takes the same if not more time.

>Train conductor 3 years
>Private pilot 6 months to 1 year (in my research it takes 6 months)
>Commercial pilot 2 years (including private pilot license which is always the first step)
>Airline transport pilot 3 to 5 years

Do you believe in it?
Are you a "witch"?
Do you collect crystals, do spells, and believe tarot, or any of those neo-pagan stuff?
Or do you think witchcraft is something to take more seriously?
Do you have any stories about witchcraft, brujas, rithuals, shamans, and the like?
Is "witch" a female-only term? What do you think about the story of witchcraft and women?

Nonas, is there a communication / messaging (for the lack of a better word) spell proven to work?
Like if there is a specific person, and we don’t really stay in touch atm (no beef, just busy hectic lives, living in different countries etc), but I really wish to communicate a thought / message to them, perhaps in their sleep, and make sure it reaches them and they know it’s me.

Generations of people have been, and continue to be, inspired by pervasive violence: namely anorectal violence. Many perpetrators of this violence against one or more others especially in public pornography have not faced severe criminal punishment despite both 1) the high likelihood of anorectal injury to a receptive person due to anorectal fragility, and 2) the significance and potential severity (even lethality) of resultant traumatic consequences. What should easily be considered incriminating evidence worldwide not only proliferates unchecked, but also serves as an example to be copied in far too many cases. This situation is both one of the greatest injustices and one of the greatest contributors to societal decadence in the modern era. Facilitating factors include prevalent (willful) ignorance, apathy, and misinformation about anorectal topics, which are enabling people with (self-)destructive tendencies to have a field day with anorectal violence and to spread disinformation quite effectively.(USER HAS BEEN PUT OUT TO ANORECTAL VIOLENCE)

>Reddit /r/painal
Other subreddits which obviously violate Reddit's policy* regarding violent content yet strangely still [as of 2023/05/27] persist nonetheless: /r/Roughanal /r/DegradingHoles /r/analfisting

* "Do not post content that encourages, glorifies, incites, or calls for violence or physical harm against an individual (including oneself) or a group of people"
https://web.archive.org/web/20230509093300/https://support.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043513151

(Also relevant: "Note that health misinformation, namely falsifiable health information that encourages or poses a significant risk of physical harm to the reader, also violates the Rule.")

For far too many years now the subreddits mentioned above have been encouraging, glorifying, and inciting some violent behaviors—particularly anorectal violence—that should easily constitute severely criminal behavior when more than one person is involved (at the very least for potentially-lethal outcomes/sequelae). People at high levels of Reddit must be held accountable: not only for failing to uphold their own site's policies, but also for enabling the spread of violent crime along with dangerously false information facilitating it on subreddits such as /r/sex.

Statutes of limitations may apply in some locales that have applicable laws, meaning criminal prosecution by governments is no longer possible after so much time has passed; some perpetrators of significant* anorectal violence against one or more others might relocate as well. Of course, such violent perpetrators—particularly ones who inspire countless others—MUST NOT escape justice in _any_ case (especially in the absence of ESSENTIAL laws). Sometimes justice must originate from other sources by any means necessary when governments fail — and governments might be part of the problem due to bribery/lobbying/corruption.

In other words, as people and governments worldwide continue failing year after year (or even decade after decade) to take serious and effective action to address rampant anorectal violence, the larger the number grows of perpetrators of significant* anorectal violence against one or more others who can no longer be criminally prosecuted by a government in some locales. Day by day, more and more of such criminals can be severely punished only by violent justice (meaning bloody slaughter, to put it bluntly: justice by _any_ means necessary) — especially when considering relocation.

* "Significant" in this case means an activity posing a risk of causing, or actually resulting in, death or great bodily harm/injury.
