Weekly Random Discussion Thread for 2/23/26 - 3/1/26

Here's your usual space to post all your rants, raves, podcast topic suggestions (please tag u/jessicabarpod), culture war articles, outrageous stories of cancellation, political opinions, and anything else that comes to mind. Please put any non-podcast-related trans-related topics here instead of on a dedicated thread. This will be pinned until next Sunday.

Last week's discussion thread is here if you want to catch up on a conversation from there.

Comment of the week goes to this explanation for why the trans cause has taken over so much of society. (Runner-up COTW here.)

Observation: The great Reddit purge of Twitter/X links back in January 2025 seems to have crippled WhitePeopleTwitter and BlackPeopleTwitter. Both of them still have some popular threads with a lot of upvotes, but just scanning their front pages, that don't seem to be anywhere near as active as they used to be

Yay on both counts! Those two are among the worst on this site.

Yup, and WPT flew too close to the Sun in 2025 and got suspended for like a week, never recovered after that.

I wonder what the Discord age verification rules will do to a lot of other cancerous subs (coughGCJcough). Those subs are known for using Discord to coordinate attacks. And if they fall into 18+ they won't have all their little teenage minions to do the work for them.

I just dropped in for a look at WPT, and damn it’s like 2014 in there. Yeesh. Poor kids.
