badposting is a comm where you post badly
This is not a [email protected] alternative. This is not a [email protected] alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.
Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?
Rules:
- Do not post good posts.
- Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
- Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
- This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
- This rule intentionally left blank.
- If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.
Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

Didn't the UK try something like this over the last decade? How'd that work out? Did they get a good one at any point?
In the UK, the prime minister is selected by the ruling party by internal processes of that party, which may involve voting but usually is triggered by various power plays within that party. It doesnt normally happen because switching your leadership multiple times in a single year is a bad look.
For wider democracy, the ruling party can choose to trigger an election early. This is favours the incumbent because it means the ruling party can choose when circumstances are favourable (e.g. financial stability, popular war declared)
It's crazy how uninterested I am in British electoralism. This is the most succinct explanation of it I've seen and my eyes still just sorta brushed past it and I caught myself going to a new tab mid paragraph lmao
No offense to you or anything, just noticing my bias
I guess it matters in the context of discussing electoral options, but it's only tangentially related to OP
no what you said made sense and is good information, especially in this context. i'm just noting something
