I prefer my meat to be all carbs.

Honestly more than the kool aid glaze my biggest concern is that the second piece he fries is just way too thick, shit's probably uneven

What's the meal where I just eat things like a Skyrim character? Sometimes I'll just eat a chicken breast and a head of romaine lettuce and be done with it.

I like this eating method. Sometimes I've vaguely thought about making some specific thing, but then I realize I'm hungry. I see something edible. Like an apple or a head of cabbage. And instead of actually making anything, I just eat whatever the fuck is in sight.

This is what humans are supposed to do. It is our genetic programming. Is it edible? Can you see it? Can you get it? Are you hungry? EAT THAT SHIT!

Those cretins who use terms like "cock snot" or "pump piggies". "Uuuunf I'm gurgling nonny's nutslop". I literary used to ERP on MSN with weebs as a teenager and we weren't this cringe.

What other terms were used? I'm curious.

Email from RapeApe to the jannies just dropped. 100% REAL.

Hey,

I'm sending this to everyone, just in case there are people who weren't in Discord or IRC, haven't been paying attention to the news, and are completely unaware of the events that have transpired, but are still checking their email. On the afternoon of April 14th, one of our servers was breached. The attacker managed to exfiltrate quite a bit of data before going public with a brief shitposting spree, at which point I became aware of what had happened and shut the servers down. Over the next ~24 hours the hacker released some of the data he had taken.

Relevant to you are that he released mod and janitor usernames, password hashes, email addresses, and the IP address last used to log in. With this information made public, people were able to find additional information from public sources, including major data breaches on other websites, to partially or fully dox some 4chan mods and janitors. Even if you have not been doxxed, please check your email address against https://haveibeenpwned.com/ to see if there may be leaks of data from other websites that may be associated with you.

Unfortunately there's no way for us to take this back and undo the harm that you've suffered due to this hack, but you can take steps to mitigate further harm. I'd recommend that everyone change the password of the email account you used when applying to be a janitor, and any other email accounts you have used thereafter in association with 4chan. You should also add two-factor authentication if at all possible, ideally via an authenticator app, such as Google Authenticator or Authy.

I would also recommend using a password manager of some sort, such that you can use strong passwords easily. Keepass or KeepassXC are good examples, but there are other popular password managers such as Bitwarden, 1Password, or those integrated into popular browsers like Firefox. Generate random passwords of at least 16 characters using upper case, lower case, numbers, and symbols. Do not re-use any passwords. If you had used the password associated with your mod or janitor account elsewhere for some other account(s), you should change that password for those other accounts as soon as you can. We will be doing a forced password reset when the site is back up, and 2FA via an authenticator app will be mandatory for both mods and janitors.

Most IPs are dynamic, but if your IP address is static, you can usually just unplug your modem or router overnight to get a new one. Failing that, you should consider calling your ISP to have it changed. In either case, you should also consider using a VPN such as NordVPN, Surfshark, or Private Internet Access (there are plenty of options here).

A lot of you will want to change your login names, discord names, or email addresses. I will contact each of you individually on Discord to discuss these changes, so please wait until I do so. Much easier keep things organized that way, contacting each person in turn rather than having to get blasted with hundreds of emails or Discord messages of people asking to change info.

As for when the site will be back (and it will be back), "We get there when we get there". Obviously we have a lot of work ahead of us with respect to patching holes and updating software, so please bear with us. Maybe catch up on your backlog, watch some anime, play some vidya, and enjoy this extended break from reports and shitposting.

For those of you who have had personal information exposed, I'm sorry this happened. We had bought new servers a few months ago and were working to transfer 4chan's functionality to them as quickly as we could, but obviously we weren't fast enough, and all of you have suffered due to our failure. I know you've placed your trust in us to keep your personal information safe, and we have let you down. I can't undo what happened, but we're going to do everything we can as fast as we can to secure 4chan's servers and codebase, and get the site back online. All I can do is hope that, despite what you've suffered, that you'll continue to help keep this community alive. There's nothing else quite like it on the internet, and without you, there might never be anything like it ever again.

Regardless of your personal decisions in the coming days and weeks, I want to thank you for all the time and effort you've put in to this website and this community. 4chan's users might not show it openly, but I know they appreciate what you do as well. I think they'll appreciate you even more when 4chan returns, as now they've had time to feel 4chan's absence, and absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Odds are the contents of this email will be posted on Sharty and Kiwifarms shortly after I send it, but I don't much care. If they want to make fun of me for appreciating the 4chan Team, they can go right ahead. I think you are all wonderful and I don't care who knows.

I will be in touch with each of you via Discord in the coming days, but if there's something that can't wait, please reach out.

Sometimes if I don't wanna cook I just slice an apple and eat it with whatever scraps of leftover meat I have. If I'm really lazy I don't even slice it and just munch apple then take bite of meat. It's good with turkey and chicken.

let's mix it up and say something on-topic

I just learned on fedi that one of the global jannies banned one of the fedi coomers for posting loli in /b/ (where loli is explicitly allowed)

I went looking for the janny who was most likely to be cruising /b/ looking for lolicon and what did I find but https://baraag.net/@HereticHesh (warning: loli/shota content)

apparently the tranny janny banning people for posting lolicon in /b/ is, in fact, a pedophile himself

 

[Demented SchizoGOD]

I will say that the concept of "gooning" and being a "gooner" has done wonders to help break my porn addiction. I mean sometimes I'll go online to jerk off, and I'll see how disgusting and repulsive all the comments are, and I'll realize I want to be as close to the opposite of this kind of person as possible. When I see these people, it's the only time I feel like I am simply superior to other people. Like they are subhuman compared to me, and my life is more valuable than theirs. I spent so much time in /b/ porn threads, but now they're all "ughhhhh, I want her to control me, I've been pumping my goonstick for ten hours fuuuuuuuuuck". Now there's nothing I'd enjoy less. I hate these people.

I agree but dark jelqing with flicker gooning are insane strats that you can only learn through months on discord goon dungeons, it does wonders for your orgone levels

Irony aside people that engage with those communities are too far gone, dopamine farming with zero prospects in life

"I think you are all wonderful and I don't care who knows." That's pretty wholesome if you forget a lot of the dudes he's addressing are pedos and at least one is seeding CP on torrent.

I've been playing my old guitar again and spending more time whittling. 4chan doomscrolling is no better than doomscrolling on Insta.

anons can multitask.

Anyone who pays $200 for a 6oz steak should be thrown in a gulag.

It's worse than that. Sometimes they don't even finish the steak. I've seen it.

Stop calling my posts Islamic content.

Steakniggers into the camps.

 

[JellyMaggot]

the "chicken jockey" post wasn't the final post on 4chan, /pol/, /int/, /vg/, and /tv/ have it beat
22:09:14 for /qa/poster vs 22:09:33 for each of those 4

chicken jockey still wins by a technicality

 

[Rapesputin]

Is there a specific reason why the 4chan admins aren’t giving a timeline as to when the site will be so back lol

They don't know

 

[Unlicensed Shitposter]

They don't know

I wonder if Hiro will just give up and pass the torch lol

 

[john goldfish]

I wonder if Hiro will just give up and pass the torch lol

He makes too much dosh pimping out user info to corpos and selling passes to BOT farms

 

[DonScion7]

Babatro

I wonder if Hiro will just give up and pass the torch lol

hopefully he gives it to someone who can actually moderate that hellsite, or better yet, give support for multiple images per post.

All I can do is hope that, despite what you've suffered, that you'll continue to help keep this community alive.

What an abusive toxic work relationship. I hope none of them comeback. This jerk sounds like such a narcissist and a cult leader who puts 4chan above everything else.
