Wait, you did automate this right?
i'll have you know all our sneers are posted artisanally
each sneer is drafted and redrafted for at least thirty hours prior to exposure to the internet, but in truth, that's only the last stage of a long process. for example, master sneerers often practice their lip curls for weeks before they even begin looking at yud posts
it’s only a service account and a couple lines of bash away! but not automating for now makes it easier to evolve these threads naturally as we go, I think, and our posters being willing to help rotate and contribute to these weekly threads is a good sign that the concept’s still fun.
“I was there for the stubsack” is also definitely something you can get on some niche shirts that very few would get
