Advancing civilization one eliminated stupidity at a time.
Humans are astonishingly clever creatures who periodically do unbelievably stupid shit. This publication exists to identify it, document it precisely, score it, and keep the file open until it stops.
Newly opened files and cases revised in the last thirty days.
Signing up takes eleven seconds. Leaving takes twenty-six minutes, four screens of retention offers, and a spoken sentence to a human who is instructed to ask why.
The coin slots were removed in March. The app requires registration, a verification email, and mobile data at a location engineered to exclude it.
Guests are given a chrome cylinder, a pictogram of what may be a butterfly, and the expectation that they will work it out before the water reaches 54°C.
Ranked by the standing measurement. Scores are living and may rise or fall.
10 is fuckery. 11 is when fuckery becomes institutional philosophy.
An 11 cannot be awarded at publication. It must be earned: the responsible party knew, had ample opportunity, and the fuckery continued anyway.
Cases are never deleted. When something is fixed, the file stays open as a record of the fix.
Humanity +3 · Score reduced to 2.1

Report it. Submissions are read by an editor, not a scoring algorithm. We need what happened, why it was avoidable, and anything you can show us. No account required.
One dispatch a week: what opened, what moved, what got fixed. Or take every case as it opens, only AF 11 rulings, only resolutions, or only the classifications that concern you. Email, no account, unsubscribe in one click.
