This is Conan. Gets into too much trouble on his own so he has to wear a leash out on walks.

  • It’s about participation in a group conversation, and one where we recognize that it’s not generally okay to continue to shout at each other when there’s other folks trying to have a nice time. I’m willing to presume that you keep your cats monitored, and nothing you’ve said here would suggest that’s not the case. You could, given the circumstances, suggest people take an active role in monitoring a species many of us love that is also notably dangerous for other animals.

      • That’s a different space, with a different set of expectations. There will obviously be some overlap in online behaviors, but escalation-as-conversation on the internet is nothing unique to reddit. It’s just not a necessary comparison here, or at least not germane to our interaction here. You’re not the only one I’ve reminded to be accountable in this thread, and I intentionally tagged you to show that. You can see @communist@beehaw.org responded to my reminder, and I think if it can’t be hashed out I’ll have to.

        You’re both free to disengage here too.
