"And then this lady left a gun in my room and very pointedly told me I'm right where I need to be."

It was an odd shot too, like the camera focused on her putting the gun down. It felt like it was meant to, or is meant to in the future, come back, but maybe it's just a dangling thread.

Pavel Chekhov's gun?

Addiction.

Probably a terminally online user who has to have their subreddits

Just look at the majority of the comments at r/soccer when they went private in protest

Froyn , to RedditMigration in What is purpleorxis7 smoking?

Sounds pretty much on-point for the average Reddit user. You can see content creator comments surrounding it.

Maybe they're just unaware.

That is just sad. Some subs were the only safe place to chat with others with similar issues.

jerrimu ,

/r/bigdickproblems was never private

FuccDiss ,

Never heard of this sub :/

axtualdave ,

At inception I think it was legitimately a place for guys with oversized stuff to talk. Like, there are actual issues guys with giant dongs have to deal with.

But it quickly devolved into lulz my girl says my dick is too biiiggg!!!

FuccDiss ,

Yeah I’ve heard stories. Not as fun and one thinks.

If it's big enough, you can't even maintain an erection because it requires too much blood. Or wear several types of pants or underwear, or sit comfortably in certain kinds of seats, or sometimes even get the simple feeling that you're done peeing when you are. But "lol I hurt women with my massive 50-inch pecker" gets more upvotes.

Hyperreality ,

From what I've heard, a big issue is condoms. Length isn't an issue, girth is. Too large or too small and it rolls up and/or is more likely to tear. Like a too small latex glove, except a dick there's nothing to stop the condom rolling up. Cleaning a toilet and the glove tears? Shit happens. Condom tears? Baby or STD happens. Not funny.

But from what I can tell, a lot of people who post in forums like that are roleplaying having a large dick or gay guys who want to creep on guys with large dicks. People are weird.

Creeps and weirdos? What the hell are they doing there?

carteblanche OP ,

Breastfeeding fetish….

Thorned_Rose ,

I had to stop posting photos of me feeding my baby on FB (even when you couldn't see shit or only a tiny bit of skin) because I would ALWAYS get random creeps PMing me.

I'm also an admin in a pregnancy/birth group and I constantly have to block scody arseholes from trying to join. It gets depressing sometimes. I can only imagine what r/breastfeeding mods have to endure to keep the community safe.

Hyperreality ,

The reality is that creeps harassing pregnant women is the least of reddit's problems.

I mean, not so long ago reddit hired a paedophile apologist and IRC diaper play furry fetishist as an admin. They claim they forgot to vet them, but this is the site that tolerated a subreddit with pictures of underage girls for years and gave the mod a custom award.

Expecting reddit to be a safe space for this kind of thing, is like worrying about Epstein stealing beer from the fridge, after you've asked him to baby sit.

Honestly, you might as well burn the whole thing down to the ground. That's the only way to make that site safe for women.

It will never be a safe space as long as spez is around

PM_ME_VINTAGE_30S ,

It will never be a safe space as long as spez is around

period. Centralized systems like Reddit are inherently beholden to the views of the people who own the central hub. Even if the people at Reddit now were “cool”, eventually a piece of shit would end up in a position of power and compromise the site. As we have seen time and time again, both recently and throughout history, we cannot allow our systems to be contingent on the assumed goodwill of the people who run it. Said differently, we need to assume that bastards will take control at some point in the future, and intentionally design our systems to be robust in the face of disturbances caused by bad actors.

Bits or bribes or sycophanty or a combination thereof.

arditty , to Home Improvement in Stripped Screw Hole in Ceiling Advice

Definitely don’t use JB weld, and I think you should be able to do it without replacing the box.

Regular electrical boxes are usually 6-32 size screws, ceiling fan boxes usually 8-32. If the holes are stripped, especially with plastic boxes, a lot of times you can get away with using the next size up (either 8-32 or 10-32) and forcibly screwing them in. They will cut new threads in the soft plastic/metal of the box, and you’ll be good to go. This is how most electricians would handle it without replacing the box.

If you want to do a cleaner, less hacky job, you can get a set of drill-taps, like this:

www.homedepot.com/p/…/304401087

Or the hand tool: a.co/d/6fr9d4Z

You can usually find them in the electrical section of your big-box home improvement store of choice. Just use the next size up and get some appropriate screws.
