    If Anyone Would Know, They're Here
    So, I'm impressed with daily_snitch and its ability to link to mostly-useful HP essays/discussions. I was wondering if something similar exists for either Lost or the Dark Tower series. Failing that, if anyone knows of a reasonably active community for either, one where people generally spell decently and post something more substantial than "OMG TEH HOTT!" it would be awesome.


    Not that there isn't vast hotness associated, but I'm more looking at places to discuss crackass theories and character analysis and so forth.

    Nazis! Now Without Godwin!
    At customers_suck, fivecentschange posts about being somewhat freaked by a customer with a swastika tattoo. People are sympathetic until unreal asks "So all he did was stare at you?" and myriadwhispers accuses fivecentschange of bigotry. Apparently swastika tattoos can mean you're Buddhist or Asatru or had a fucked up youth and we should be terribly sympathetic; plus, it's not okay to be bigoted against Nazis!


    I reply rather snippily that, first, if your religion leads you to ignore that ninety percent of the population associates a symbol with *genocidal racism,* you are not so much spiritual as fucking stupid and, second, there is a difference between "I don't like that guy because he has dark skin" and "I don't like that guy because he belongs to a group that advocates killing minorities."


    At which point ratsicle jumps in to defend her friend. Apparently she lives in Dallas, and nobody there gets at all agitated by swastika tattoos--I'm not touchin' that one--and I must be terribly small town.


    Golly, you big-city people and your worldly swastika-acceptance. It's enough to turn a girl's head.

    But the lamentations of women are one of the best things in life!
    So, White Wolf has created a game called "Pimp: the Backhanding." Very obviously humor.


    And then there's a giant hemispherical explosion in the forums.


    Highlights: a discussion of legalized prostitution, someone suggesting that WW's next game should be "Plantation: the Slavening," a whole bunch of people suggesting that those freaking out need, you know, a grip, and someone named heartwoodwolf starting a thread called "I feel the need to cry." She wishes she could bake a cake made out of rainbows and smiles, and we could all eat it and be happy.
