    It's their April Fools thing. It's a subforum with limited posting access full of pictures of OSHA violations. Thread names like "Hot Shingles in Your Area" and "Handling Big Loads."

    Got to give it to them, they've got us beat by a mile just on sheer effort involved. But then, they're also orders of magnitude larger, so...

    I knew I should end my post with /s :VWould be funnier if among them was a link to QQ. I bet that all sister sites are glad that QQ exists so all that NSFW waste has a place to collect.

    The background isn't easy on the eyes, but at least it isn't like e621 converting all the comments in the posts and forums into baby talk, I thought I was actually going insane there.

    Petition to make this the permanent default format of the website. Visiting the homepage while on Light Responsive format burns my eyes. My format reference only kicks in once I'm logged in.
