    chan threads normally expire on their own, don't they

    I honestly don't know much about how chan threats work, but I thought the PA one was a branch of a stickied thread, and the thread has past posts up to Oct. 20, and it has posts up to mid-day Sunday, then there's a huge gap where the PA posts used to be, followed by posts for today. So to me it looks like posts were deleted, but like I said I don't really know how chans work and I might have misunderstood something.

    Threads on *chan software have three reasons for ceasing to exist - deletion by a moderator, deletion by the poster of the opening post, or falling past the last page. Any new post will bump the thread to the first page until it's hit the bump limit (usually around 200ish posts), whereafter new posts don't bump it any further, leading to it falling off the back page and into the ether. It's basically like if D&D only had 9 pages, and any thread that went past page 9 was autodeleted.

    There are archives, though. 4chan has one, in which all old threads can still be viewed as read-only, including deleted posts (unless the reason for deletion was marked as illegal material, which would be such things as CP). Not sure 8chan has done.

    If a chunk of posts are missing from the middle of a thread, a moderator's deleted them.

    Edit: Raiding is also strictly against 4chan rules (and is actually enforced these days) and would lead to deletions (and bans of the user(s)). Don't know about 8chan's policy, though.

    Edit 2: It appears 8chan is more like Reddit than 4chan in terms of organisation. Rules are per-board, and anyone can make a board (unlike 4chan, where boards are set up by Moot).

    I required authentic mexican food and not thai cali-mex fusion (goddamn it california). So I went and found a food truck. So much queso blanco, so much burrito al pastor.

    I honestly don't know if "so much queso" counts as strictly authentic to like, Sonoran peasant fare or whatever but I think of it as an improvement. "Mexican Plus." Like Edward James Olmos with bionic limbs.

    By authentic I mean what they eat in mexico today, not attempting some platonic ideal of historical authenticity. I am sure your average modern working class mexican is eating a fair amount of inexpensive cheese.

    look I just want to celebrate the simple american genius of improving world cuisine by adding cheese and frying

    I'm not gonna act like this is false.

    I ate fried korean bbq chicken with cheese the other night. I assume it was the least authentic thing ever made but after an entire day without eating it was amazing.

    strangely enough the koreans love just dumping cheese on random foods

    Read a piece on how MindGeek has effectively monopolized online tube porn sites as well as porn production. The list of sites under their thumb made me feel pretty bad about myself, since I knew about pretty much all of them.

    But then some of the few sites not under MindGeek control were also listed, and I felt better about myself because I knew about them too! It made me feel like much less of a slave to the faceless megapornporation!

    All's well that ends well.
    I recognize all of the names in that article. Welp.

    I do feel bad for porn stars, but on the other hand, all pornography production could cease tomorrow and we would still have enough porn.

    Well, I also know of enough pornstars to know that many of them opt to go at it mostly alone or collaborate with an experienced photographer these days, making dedicated pay-sites for themselves. Even if the big production companies crumble, their names alone would probably be enough to give them a decent shot at "Crowdsourcing" a living wage. Then again, the fact that most of them also seem to have been forced by necessity into working double as escorts is probably not ideal.

    Alright and in this next scene all the animals have AIDS.

    I got a little excited when I saw your ship.

    oh my god

    i just lit up the vape because i had a migraine going and used it for a while

    i listened to some music which i for whatever reason rarely do anymore, some electronic, some old rock

    packed some of the apple crisp i made the other day into the bottom of a ramekin and zapped it, then topped it with a big scoop of french vanilla ice cream

    i was really enjoying myself, savouring the notes in my ears and the flavours over my tongue, vanilla and apple criss-crossing

    i take a swig of coffee and i end up going into, like, those kind of post-orgasm shakes you get when you're really into it

    In this moment, you are euphoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, you are enlightened by your apple crisp.

    Ah yes, that routine.

    2. Two hours later: ugh, I can't sleep. I might as well get up again.

    We think the cat has fleas, from god knows where, so we took it to the vet last night. Here's some flea dirt, here are some larvae we found on his bedding, here is the cat. No, apparently she still wasn't sure.

    It wasn't until we were combing through his fur ourselves in front of her and finding well what do you know a flea that she considered maybe he had fleas. Since he doesn't actually go out about the only place he might have picked them up is at the damn vets when he went a month ago.

    Raging.

    We used to have a futon. It was terrible and did my back in something rotten. Now my body baulks at anything less than a thick, luxurious King Size mattress.
