Well, if anyone wants to include images in threads, that's their idea. I'm narrowing the focus of my request to an image thread, and I'm getting a bit confused by which objections belong to what.
Ah, I was seeing it as an open discussion of possibly making an image thread and also of, at times, being able to post images more widely.
I think I was confused by the example of, say Tep got engaged and there could be squee pictures allowed for a while and then disallowed. Which, if there was an image thread, I would assume it would allow images all of the time. So that sounded like allowing images in already established threads.
My objection is to images in already established threads. Linking to and talking about images, I have no issue with but posting them? No, thank you.
I don't really like the idea of an image thread on b.org either but that's easy to avoid if we go to Bureaucracy and hash it out and vote one into being.
Our IT mandate is to make people fans of our service.
What does your company think this means? Because I don't think they are doing it right.
I couldn't find the toilet in my room in the Denver Four Seasons. I actually had to call the front desk.
Wait, what? How did they hide the toilet from you?
After my recent experience with bed bugs, I think that is going to be the first thing I check next time I'm in a hotel. (We are assuming our infestation came from K-Bug's trip to Las Vegas).
Wait, what? How did they hide the toilet from you?
It was behind this door, which didn't look like a door. I think it was a pocket door, in fact, but there were not a lot of indications it was anything but a wall.
Sadly, the woman at reception said I was far from the first person to call about it.
No social capital blown at all, amych. I'm confident that your feelings are shared by many. We are talky meat!
amych's feelings are my feelings.
I suppose a separate thread for images would be fine, and I understand wanting to have a place for stuff that others (facetwittumbl, etc.)don't see.
Still, since I already have three domain names, posting images here wouldn't be much different than adding them to my wordpress account and linking to a comment in-thread, would it?
If we do have images- can Dana be Elijah Wood again?
I think if we do have images, Dana is
required
to be Elijah Wood again. Or a lamppost.

Not sadly! That means it's a design flaw.
Hey, speaking of hotels, since I'm going to be gone for a bit, I'm not sure how good I'll be at keeping the Good Stuff coming. So if anyone wants to submit stuff to reblog between tomorrow and Wednesday, that would be awesome. I don't think I can make new posts from my phone, what with the switching between tabs and saving pictures and everything else.
The Loneliest Unicorn
An awesome short comic story.
I guess it sucks to be a unicorn. Or this particular unicorn, anyway.
News from Chicago:
School buses scrapped - chicagotribune.com
Eight school buses were stolen from the Far South Side overnight and driven to a salvage yard, where they were cut apart and shredded into a two-story pile of scrap, police said.
...
The buses were all equipped with GPS tracking devices, and police were able to track "their entire movement" to the scrap yard on the West Side, police said.
When officers arrived, several people who apparently worked in the scrap yard ran into a building, police said. Officers initially apprehended one person and later took two others into custody.
"There was a pile of shredded school buses about two-stories high," one police official said. Some pieces were large enough that police could see the "Sunrise bus logo," the official said.
Engines and transmissions from the buses had already been cut in half, and the seats tossed in a "big pile of scrap."
wtf?
