a journalist at The Independent got paid to write β€œheckin cute and valid” :marseyxd: Breaking: News org actually gets the r/TransParentTransKid story right

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/reddit-conservatives-post-trans-child-fake-b2060803.html

and I get another shoutout :marseylove:

Reuters responded to my request for correction but isn't keen on fixing the story, so I might write a whingepost about them later. But hey, The Independent got things right!

Thanks King. I've a new source for the Wikipedia page [1]

:#marseynerd:


That may be a reference to RDrama's predecessor, Reddit's /r/Drama board, which was reportedly β€œquarantined” by the company for breaking its rules.

Wait, did they take that from my post in the discussion section of the article about controversial subs on Wikipedia [2]??

subreddit /r/LoveForLandlords, where the users of rDrama act as they were a caricature of a landord

Caricature? :marseystonetoss:

Nope, that's why the journo put into quotes. I wrote "self quarantine" in quotes to impress the other wikicels and the journo took it seriously lol
