Trigger warning: discussion of trigger warnings
Post 181944 by PhineasGage deleted for the following reason: We had a discussion about substantially the same work a few months ago, and the problems with the click-baity presentation and the actual methodology. I don't see any reason to do Round Two, Go! on this. -- cortex

California, I applaud you
Post 181837 by Yellow deleted for the following reason: Hey there, this is fine as a post link, but the standard for Metafilter news posts is not to editorialize with the poster's own personal thoughts and ideas. Please contact us, and we can work it out! -- taz

Post 181783 by Christ, what an asshole deleted for the following reason: The link itself seems fine, but it's going to need more substantial framing to work at MetaFilter. -- Eyebrows McGee

Tear down this wall!

Is Ben Shapiro A Liar Or Just Lazy And Stupid?
Post 181694 by The Whelk deleted for the following reason: A couple of problems here: To avoid overly OP editorialized framing, it's best to use direct quotes and show that they are quotes, also it seems that one of these is about a different person entirely? and finally, perhaps a more organized approach, maybe with an article about this guy might help. As is, it's several long clips addressing various positions he apparently takes, but sort of a disorganized pot luck of "ugh, this guy," that requires quite a bit of time investment -- particularly if one is not already familiar with him and his arguments, and why he matters more than any other average ugh-guy spouting his opinions. Thanks. -- taz

Inside Patriots coach Bill Belichick's coaching mastering
Post 181369 by YankeeKing6700 deleted for the following reason: Metafilter posts are supposed to be things you find online that are interesting, most people haven't seen, and will make for good discussion; this feels more like you're posting articles from ESPN to argue in all-or-nothing terms with people about their sports team being the best or worst, which isn't really the kind of discussion the site aims for. -- LobsterMitten

Red Sox legend Big Papi David Ortiz shot, wounded in Dominican Republic
Post 181346 by YankeeKing6700 deleted for the following reason: That's scary news and I hope he's okay, but there's very little to work with here as a post so far; it'd be better to wait until there's something more to talk about than the fact of a shooting in not-yet-clear circumstances. -- cortex
