@elephant_ben A 20% reduction in violent crime over 150 years would be an amazing outcome.

Still have yet to see any critics of Sasha read this graph.

@Gynephila Well, it's more critically this carefully-crafted prologue + the most obvious layup for Eggbreaker Claude of all time.

@ReonHanbaga Tbh at this point regarding AI I can barely tell fake and real stories apart anymore. I mean, there's literally a subreddit called r/MyBoyfriendIsAI with 25K members, so anything is possible.

@JohnLeFevre Also it looks like you were actually calling Brin a pussy? So I sort of feel this is fair.

@JohnLeFevre It looks like she just called you a faggot, and you, for reasons upon which one almost dare not speculate, interpolated "retarded" in the retelling.

I was in a WhatsApp group chat with some so-called tech elites. Sergey Brin's girlfriend - Gerelyn Gilbert-Soto - is in the chat. I said tech bros have blood on their hands for censorship, covid, Ukraine, Russia-gate, etc. and are now only opportunistically seeing the light because of taxes in California. She responded by calling me a retarded faggot. The group admin removed me from the chat.

@mclovenxoxo It's a moral failing — and I say this as someone who is constantly late — because it's contemptuous towards other people's time.

sorry you’ll never convince me that the “lateness is a moral failing” isn’t rooted in colonization and capitalism, it’s CONTROL!!! and I get we live in a society blah blah blah but if it’s ur friends you know is always late tell them an earlier time or whatever but acting like it’s a moral failing is so puritanical and silly sometimes you just got to accept people as they are

@33ggn0gPond @cinemaxwell Women are fat. Thank you for noticing.

@cinemaxwell It's also deeply rooted in misogyny too.

Fatphobia is so ugly (and rooted in racism and pedophilia) and yet it seems to be one of those things that everyone is pretty okay with. Someone’s weight and appearance is the least interesting thing about them. Be better, folks. I beg you.

@littlelostsunny @cinemaxwell Surely the solution here is for everyone to take GLP-1s, which, rather predictably, are now basically free?

@cinemaxwell Just gonna get worse as GLP-1s continue to become more accessible/prevalent. The already skinny will get skinnier and the ones who lost weight will get meaner. It’s gonna be a shit show.

@h4ng3dbyh4l0s The problems you people create for yourselves are unendingly fascinating. Thank you.

im finding out that sometimes when your porn addiction is bad enough u decide that its actually socially unacceptable behavior to be a trans person who doesnt want to use their natal genitals

Neopronoun theory of national nomenclature

@AnalyticaCamil1 @RufusJCrump What? That's not correct.

@RufusJCrump There’s like a dozen of them actually. That’s why you use words like ‘committee.’

No, you can call it Turkiye or Türkiye. The Turks submitted a formal political request, to American dominated global political systems and orders (that operate overwhelmingly in English) to change the ‘English spelling’ of their country’s name. They went through the correct hoops and hurdles that ‘we’ established to do that. It’s Turkiye, for the same reason you wouldn’t call Czechia the Czech Republic.

@AnalyticaCamil1 @YoshiJoshi_ @Jake24thesnake You have brain damage nigga

@YoshiJoshi_ @Jake24thesnake We can see the British government and British economy you know, that’s hardly a solid indicator of doing things the right way.

@jmrphy I would agree if the alternative weren't institutional brain damage.

The strongest argument against Great Books programming is that it inculcates a subservient and performative attitude toward reading and ultimately thinking itself (which most of the great authors would find contemptible). After a basic canonical education great readers and writers become extremely idiosyncratic, they don't read from a headmaster's list in order to accumulate cultural capital for public display (if your passion just happens to be the Great Books it can only mean that you fell in love with maximizing your publicly legible cultural capital, even if only to improve your own interior image of your own sophistication). If you ever sincerely intuit what any of the greatest thinkers are getting at, then pretty quickly you go off the beaten path, develop a distaste for some of the Great Books, and form an independent perspective of what is worth reading and thinking about. The fetishization of Great Books is now, on net, doing more harm than good.

@Chadson @GeringerAdam +1 (844) 550-5556

@GeringerAdam sometimes you think like "huh, what if oomfie choked me" but then I bury those thoughts deep down where nobody will ever find them... you know?

Quit your tech job

Well I simply disagree

@Y2K_mindset lol

@Y2K_mindset Bay Area gurus used to use LSD and millenarianism to keep a flock of lithe sun-kissed sixteen-year-olds cuddled up together in a barn. Now they use LSD and millenarianism to keep three to six autistic bitches with bird's-nest hair ready to Waymo across SoMa for worknight CNC.

Rationalist TPOT people will talk about how socialists and communists are insane fanatics but then post a massive wall of text with private message screenshots about how they fell for yet another sex cult for the 5th time in 4 years.

@Y2K_mindset YES I wrote this with my DICK in my HAND.

@narrenhut "Midwitted" is a bit generous here.

They say that obscure academic critical theory doesn’t trickle down to the masses but what else can explain this sort of midwitted commentary

@SummerWalrus @Pearl_Donut @levon_whiteguy Hey man. Don't know if you've revisited this case but it was "ethnic minority run amok." Anyway, hope you're doing well.

@ReonHanbaga @Pearl_Donut @levon_whiteguy You should actually turn this schtick around tbh like detached internet racism doesn't translate well into life happiness or success. I'd try showing a loved one this Twitter I think they would be bummed out by the way you judge others

Whenever I see one of these, I always remember this mailman I know in a group DM saying "I can always look at the name on the package and tell if the recipient is trans"
