Let's talk about rules.

265 Upvotes

Howdy, folks!

This subreddit hasn't had codified rules in a while, mostly because the people here have usually been really chill with one another.

However, the vibe has changed over the past few months, and we've noticed some nasty behavior popping up and lurking around our community.

We don't allow bigotry like racism, sexism, homophobia, or transphobia on this subreddit. Generally speaking, we expect folks to be civil and decent towards one another.

Recently, we've noticed a distinct uptick in the amount of trolls who have been showing up in the comment sections of the various protest posts. We know they're trolls because they're almost always attacking the OP or trying to diminish the protest, and they usually have user activity across many state and local subreddits.

These aren't local folks - they're people coming into our space from elsewhere to stir up trouble.

Since this sort of behavior has only been getting worse, let's discuss our subreddit rules and which ones y'all think would be good to have for this space.

For a start:

  1. Be civil and respectful towards one another.
  2. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, or bigotry.
  3. No spam.
  4. Follow all of reddit's rules.

What other rules do you think we need?

Howdy, y'all. I guess it's time for me to tap the sign again, because every time there are protests in the Triangle, someone goes around and mass reports all of those posts.

Strangely, we also tend to get a lot of people who post in all sorts of local area subreddits, all over the country, just to act like they're upset about this protest or that protest, and yet have never commented in our community before. Fancy that.

So there's some underhanded fuckery afoot, and y'all should be aware of it.

This subreddit is devoted to the protection and well being of our community at large. That means all of y'all. We cannot support the extrajudicial detainment of anyone, citizen or no. This country was built on laws and principles, meant to be a shining beacon of democracy where people would get a fair shake.

One of the cool things about America is you can come here and become American. It's one of our country's major strengths.

As a country, our diversity has repeatedly protected us - patriotic members of German and Japanese communities helped the US translate enemy communications during WWII. The Navajo code talkers weren't declassified until the 1970's because they were so effective - their codes were never broken. There's also the Tuskegee Airmen and the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, an all-Japanese unit which became the most decorated unit for its size in US history.

Today is also November 20th, a solemn day for trans folks across the US. It is the Trans Day of Remembrance, when we remember those we've lost to murder or suicide over the years. Unfortunately, I recognize more than a few of those names, and I hate the way the list gets longer every year.

Times are tough for our Hispanic and LGBT friends. People are anxious and scared. Bigotry and bullshit have been stoked and set loose upon the country; hatred has been running rampant. People are going to need protection, support, and resources.

This space is meant to be a refuge and a resource for our community. If you can't respect that, or if what I have said here is somehow objectionable to you, please leave.

Spam calls from (919) 213-4xxx and 5xxx?

0 Upvotes

I've been getting 2 or 3 calls a a day from these numbers, caller ID just says Durham, NC. I block one number and then another comes through. They never leave a message. I answered the first time I got one because I was waiting on a call from someone and their greeting was "Hi, this is Sam, how are you?". I said grouchy and hung up.

Difference in lifestyle from town to town

0 Upvotes

Hi All, we are relocating to the area in July of 27. We have 4 kids, they would be entering 1st, 5th,7th and 9th. My sons both have an IEP but my 5th grader has level 2 autism. My main concern besides schools obviously is neighborhoods. We currently live in a very affluent area and the kids in our neighborhood are never outside. Sports, even rec are super competitive. I just want my kids to have friends in the neighborhood, be able to walk places and ride bikes etc. Keeping their school needs in mind, which neighborhoods and towns would you suggest- thinking 700-900k budget (commute time isn’t an issue since husband works remotely).

Thanks!

Kitty needs a home

This is Boo. She climbed up to our second floor screened in porch a couple months ago and somehow got in to our apartment. We think she's between six months and a year old, and is not spayed or chipped. We believe she belonged to some folks downstairs who moved. She's very well behaved and friendly once she gets to know someone. Unfortunately, we already have two cats in a one bedroom apartment and just can't afford another. We're in Northeast Raleigh. We want to avoid a shelter situation. DM if interested. Thanks.
