=== How shouldn't I contribute? === | |||
<!-- Results better than aimless conversation. If you want to have conversations about the [[The Portal Podcast|Podcast]], see [[The Portal Discords]]. Bad behavior should be self-evident: it's contrary to the goals. Be respectful, be cool, exclude disruptive behavior, make beauty.
