Community Rules
You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).
Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.
Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.
Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".
Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.
Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.
Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.
Avoid AI generated content.
Avoid misinformation.
Avoid incomprehensible posts.
No threats or personal attacks.
No spam.
Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

Well...
He may have had a semi-legitimate reason.
Exodus 33:17-23:
So basically, God's face is too ... glorious, for mortal minds to perceive, but his back, his rear?
Evidently safe for mortal eyes, and the only part of God that Moses ever actually directly saw.
(Well, other than his burning bush.)
The literal next verse is God instructing Moses to make two tablets, after he broke the first set due to being enraged by the Israelites constructing and worshipping a golden statue of a bull.
So yeah, God basically reveals his rear to Moses, right before the second version of the Ten Commandments are inscribed.
Oh and just if you're curious, those Ten Commandments v2.0 here are basically:
Do not make any agreements with any other people group in Canaan.
Destroy all their religious sites and idols, partake in none of their feasts or rituals, do not intermarry with them.
But why, you may ask?
Because God is a jealous God whose name is literally Jealous.
Do not make any metal idols to worship as Gods.
Keep the feast of unleavened bread (Passover).
All your firstborn children belong to me, all your firstborn livestock (sheep and donkey specifically) belong to me, as a sacrifice.
No working the fields on the 7th day of the week (Sabbath).
If all the male Israelities appear before me 3 times a year, I will drive every other Canaanite out of Canaan and no one will covet the land.
(My own interpretation of this is a tri-annual, full conscription, military campaign)
No blood/animal sacrifice is to accompany the Passover, and you must eat all the bread before the morning.
Bring the first harvest of your fields to the Temple.
Do not boil a young goat in its mother's milk.

Yeah.
I uh... swear to God that I am not making that last one up.
That's the... second version of the Ten Commandments.
Would you imagine that most Christians do not read their Bible?
Now you see that’s the kind of bible study I can get => behind <=.
So god is pap psappasy jealous bitch like "Aw hun you know I'm too dapng hot pans outta your league but I'll show you a lil booty papi you know what you're missing, and don't be seeing any other ho."
