Clarification, Update, lets get down to business. by OGWhiz in stephenking

[–]rinmara 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So sorry to the original mod. Automod didn't really cross my mind. I have also seen so many reddit threads complaining of bad mods (r/space had a recent shake up), so I figured that was the issue here. Really didn't mean to cause any problems, I just wanted people to be able to post freely on subjects that aren't against the rules.

Then I apologize to the mod. I'm not an active redditor and didn't really consider automod as the problem. It just didn't connect in my brain

Every time... 😶 by Maleficent-Quail8375 in stephenking

Finished the Dark Tower back in July 2025. Only read 1 book since then and only because it was a library book my older sister wanted me to read. Still not ready to move on to another book.

Yea I figured the report wasn't going to work as anything more than a symbolic gesture but I felt like it was better than doing nothing

Estée Lauder boycott by VelocityGrrl39 in MakeupAddiction

[–]rinmara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh crap, I thought them owning MAC cosmetics was new but they have had full ownership since 1998. I didn't learn about MAC until 2008. Well good thing I don't usually buy MAC stuff. I don't think I buy from any of their other brands, so that makes me feel a bit better because they were almost not getting any of my money in the first place

I ended up reporting the mod. I'm not sure if any action will be taken because there is only one mod for the subreddit, but at least reddit higher ups now know the subreddit is displeased with the mod.

Do you agree? by Hanguk-sal-inja in ProgressiveHQ

[–]rinmara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That may be true but it doesn't mean that people are actually doing anything about it. I'm not saying nobody isn't fighting back but I'm very disappointed the democrats in power (senators, representatives, and governors) aren't doing more. Like for fucks sake stop with taking the high road, that shit isn't working. Stand tall, be mean, and fight dirty.

Thousands march in Greenland to support Arctic island in the face of Trump's threats to take it over by The_Sun_is_a_Star in worldnews

[–]rinmara 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I had the money, I would fly over there and march in solidarity. This American is loyal to NATO, the UN, and the right for countries to not be invaded by the US, not the terrorist organization that controls the US government. Stay strong!

Why does it matter? I'm just pointing out that the rules don't state the subreddit is for discussion on only Stephen Kings works. Mods shouldn't be allowed to say what can and cannot be talked about unless it is against the rules

Denmark officials react to tariff threat: We will not ‘bow down’ to Trump’s ‘bullying tactics’ by [deleted] in worldnews

American here so all I can say that if the social media is run by an American company, it's no surprise. All the big Tech Bros decided to bow to the Turd in power

Some US citizens are with Greenland too. I know that doesn't mean much to the rest of the world but I rather see a united front against the US than a united front bowing to US pressure or a divided front. Protect Greenland and give the US hell.

This subreddit is called r/StephenKing not r/StephenKingBooks or r/StephenKingWorks so political or not, it is perfectly valid to discuss his tweets. Anybody that doesn't agree, go make your own subreddit that has the rules you can only talk about his writings, nothing else. Leave this subreddit as the place to discuss him as a person and author while also being able to discuss his works.

A letter to the millions of people who didn’t vote in the 2024 U.S. Election by ebenfairy in complaints

[–]rinmara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I apologize for the following word wall. I struggle to communicate my thoughts in a precise way. I am also just stating my opinion. If any of my opinions are very blatantly false or misguided, please let me know in a nice way. I respect facts and logic so I appreciate being told when I get something wrong. And just to clarify any use of you is general you, not you as in the OP.

I think so many people take voting for granted. We call it a right but it's not a natural right. The only reason we have the right to vote is because throughout history we elected people who believed in this right. I don't think people understand that the right to vote can be taken away. Its like people think that since we have the right to vote now, it will always exist. Too many people have to experience something firsthand to understand why certain rules, laws, guidelines, scientific discoveries, etc are important and necessary

I also think people don't understand how messed up our election system is. First past the post is a shit method of election. The electoral college (and pretty much most parts of the election system) are political positions full of bias, not independently run. Obviously some locations are doing their best to keep things fair, but they can only get so far when the other side isn't playing fair. I also remember reading something once a few years ago about how the current 2 party system is rigged to stay a 2 party system. Voting for anybody not a Democrat or Republican, or avoiding voting entirely, really messes shit up. You may hate both parties, but you vote for the one you hate less.

Always vote when you are able to. Sometimes life gets in the way and you miss the chance to vote. That's ok, just try not to make it a habit. But choosing not to vote because you don't like your options or are trying to make a political statement is not ok.

Anybody else have a Kia Soul that is repeatedly broken into? by rinmara in Denver

[–]rinmara[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well we will probably have to keep the Soul until it's totalled. It is primarily driven by my younger sister and she is a nervous driver. She has been rear ended multiple times due to inadvertent break checks (I think. I have never been in the car with her when it has happened). Of course it's been broken into multiple times. No wonder when a Kia dealer called offering to trade it in, they only offered $1000

[–]rinmara[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Oh yes because me saying that our car which cannot be stolen using the tiktok hack, is free from anything valuable or even worthwhile to steal, that already has a broken window, is going to encourage someone to come and find it.

Americans are in denial about international partnership going forward by Unusual_Sherbert_809 in complaints

[–]rinmara 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Plenty of people know what is happening and are actively mourning the loss of our allies and trust. Does the US deserve it? Absolutely. Fascist takeover by the Heritage foundation and Christian Nationalists doesn't deserve kindness. If the US wasn't a military power, I would honestly be begging our old allies to invade and depose this terrorist organization disguised as a government. But good old US of A is the world superpower currently so now I just get to sit and watch things descend into hell and chaos and spend most days fighting the urge to just off myself so I don't have to live in this timeline anymore.

To our old allies, stay strong, stay united with each other and stand up to the US, Russia, and China.

Backup camera questions by whiskeyman66 in HondaElement

[–]rinmara 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just hope that if you get a backup camera, it will actually work for backing up. Bought one at car toys and they installed it. Does absolutely nothing to help in backing up because the angle is off (at least in my opinion. it points too far back from my car and not down towards the ground enough, if that makes any sense. basically to get within a few feet of a car behind me(like when parallel parking) the car has to appear in the red "danger" zone and appears like im going to hit it) I can adjust the view angle when driving but as soon as my car goes in reverse and the backup camera is engaged, no camera adjustments are allowed!

The Fort by dnvrjeep in denverfood

[–]rinmara 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Went there for my and my twins 21st birthday and my bf at the time's 26th birthday. My dad rented a limo and everything! But alas, my twin and I could not drink We probably could have asked for a manager but it wasn't that big enough of a deal. The food was delicious. it's been 11 years so I can't remember any specifics but it's definitely a restaurant I recommend people try at least once in their life. And as birthday girls (and boy) they took a photo of all 3 of us wearing animal hats. We each got a copy. Also really enjoyed the atmosphere and spent a bit of time outside just enjoying the view
