@widget EqD's thing is basically, yeah, that it's unfiltered. You gotta filter through the content yourself, really. I stopped checking it religiously when I realized that I really _didn't_ care about all the dumb little things that someone said about the fandom.

@eqdpony Can we stop with these spoilers already for buck sake. At least not in the title and blurb.
-
@widget The writers say it's a spoiler.
-
@toksyuryel i dont see anything
-
@widget Names can be spoilers too, especially if they're descriptive names.
-
@toksyuryel @widget I'm tempted to sandbox the bot to keep disputes like this from coming up. EqD _is_ pretty bad about spoiling things without much of a care.
-
@redenchilada And bringing up that one washed-up shock-jock who shall not be named.
-
@scribus Let's just agree to delete any more of those posts without warning. All it'll ever do is cause a fight.
-
@redenchilada I can dig it. Um, if my home internet ever stays stable for more than three minutes at a go.
-
@widget ...Reading in context gave me no hint as to what you're talking about. And now I'm legitimately interested! :(
-
@redenchilada How are you still awake?
-
@toksyuryel I haven't felt the slightest bit tired since waking up this morning. Like, I tried to feel tired since I know I should be tired, but I couldn't do it.
-
@redenchilada s/this morning/yesterday morning
-
@redenchilada Distressing. Hope you will be ok.
-
@toksyuryel I'm actually starting to wind down at this point. I'll probably hit the sack soon (and not wake up until Saturday? I dunno).
-
@widget I woke up at noon.
-
@widget Stern. The whole "Ehrmehgehrd he sayed a teh mean things and now we must collectively flip our individual and collective lids!" fiasco.
-
@widget I meant noon yesterday. 37 hours ago.
-
@redenchilada You trippy mane?

@widget The problem was that [sp]Prelxrna fgnegrq gnyxvat nobhg vg, juvpu fgnegrq n pbyyrpgvir uvffl svg nobhg jurgure pybccvat vf na bx guvat gb qb.[/sp] (I'm encoding that because I know some people would rather forget.)

@redenchilada Vg jnfa'g Prehyrna, vg jnf Gniv. (to others: don't decode if you'd rather forget)

-
@widget Honestly, it seems like part of the problem is that the entire community apparently has their crappy days all at once or something. It's kinda weird, almost like we're... connected. #shiftyeyes #paranoia
-
@widget I always just phrased it as a less elegant "EqD is happy to post stupid flamebait on their front page without so much as a simple thought"
-
@redenchilada EqD is run by people who never really grew out of the old 4chan mentality.
-
@toksyuryel EqD isn't what I'd consider an unbiased news source. I consider it more of a personal blog run by someone obsessed with FiM that the community embraced as a news source for some silly reason. Call me cynical.
-
@redenchilada That's actually exactly what it is.
-
@redenchilada It's not even a news source. They just post interesting things. xD
-
@widget I use EqD, DHN, and round stable all at the same time. Why choose just one source?
-
@toksyuryel I only stuck in the "I consider"s to save my butt in case someone wanted to start an argument about something I didn't want to argue about :p
