badposting
badposting is a comm where you post badly
This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.
Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?
Rules:
- Do not post good posts.
- Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
- Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
- This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
- This rule intentionally left blank.
- If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.
Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

... is the person after whom the term "Down's syndrome" is named. It is so named because of his work Observations on an Ethnic Classification of Idiots, a work that categorises mental handicaps based on ethnic traits. What we now know as trisomy 21/Down's syndrome he classified as "Mongolian idiocy" (As opposed to Malay idiocy, Caucasian idiocy or Ethiopian idiocy)
He was also the first (Iirc) to create an asylum for the mentally ill and disabled where they were not beaten and were instead provided with activities and provided voluntary education and allowed to engage in activities like horseback riding and crafts in a structured and supposedly safe manner.
He left this asylum after the board refuses to fund wages for women and would not allow for the public exhibition of art made by his patients.
A land of contrasts.
