Something tells me you’re making little effort to escape your virtual life, Jay and the Monkeys.

it keeps going between that and a thing for starcraft (which is definitely epimer’s fault)

exactly why the new system is so much better

tbh, it’s the worst thing about the new boards. I loved the nesting. So much easier to follow.

Just saw this come up on Twitter:

Among 18-24 year olds, only 18 per cent voted Tory, while 67 per cent supported Labour.

I mean DiS is still a fairly young demographic. I think it’s not surprising that there aren’t going to be many right-wing voices coming on here with that voting record.

I agree. Not sure hounding people out is a good vibe, though.

Hunting them down?

Well I think the point is they will be hounded out by the fact that it’ll just be a massive hassle for them to hang out here? I wasn’t really expecting them to be rooted out by some kind of Spanish Inquisition.

“Hounded out” does have overtones of being forced out rather than just leaving voluntarily.

Sure but this is like the difference between constructive dismissal and actively handing someone their P45. The former would be what I’d call ‘hounded out’.

Hence my point about inclusivity.

Inclusivity is about forcing reactionary people to be more progressive not progressives to accept reactionary views, though.

Hmmm

Go back to the old font.

This new font doesn’t really suit DiS. The old font had a dated textbook feel to it but I liked it, gave the place more character.

Oh and also bring back inside-outside

Get rid of the thread title header always showing at the top of the screen as you scroll down the page.

Actually this is quite annoying when you’re in ‘Porn Polls’ or something similar.

Same in the “How’s Your Depresison” thread - don;t want to advertise to the office that I may be suffering form depression.
I’ve tried blocking this element with Adblocker but it doesn’t work either.

Yes I was going to say the same, but then it occurred to me you could just be reading it as a happy person.
