anyone

@DollyT222027 this use of italics is very common. i have found it useful as a reader. don't be embarrassed by it.

I have a confession to make: my fantasy novel series uses italics to convey unspoken thoughts. I'm sorry! In my defense, I didn't know that was a controversial thing, and I'd read other fantasy books where it's used.

@thedrarna thanks for boosting it so i can watch it on twitter before watching the movie 👍

I left the movie theater in disbelief cuz I understood even less of why they released this at all. It should have been kept under lock and key.

@arbysismyuncle @Ohboycjs @GianmarcoSoresi i'm responding because i care about you, and i'm waiting to be called up for my bloodwork anyway. i'm not responding with vitriol.

@tJacquesG1 @Ohboycjs @GianmarcoSoresi your life is more pleasant which is why you keep responding to every single one of my replies. look inwards buddy. youre talking up to me

I swear to god I have no problem saying when someone I dislike interpersonally or politically is funny. This is one of the worst specials I’ve ever seen in my entire life

@arbysismyuncle @Ohboycjs @GianmarcoSoresi i think you should go on a walk and notice little things that make you feel pleasant, like an insect or an cool leaf or the feeling of humid air on your skin. i think you should call someone you love and tell them something you admire about them. this website is poisoning you.

@tJacquesG1 @Ohboycjs @GianmarcoSoresi "umm actually Whether objective good exists is an open philosophical question. There is no consensus, but there are serious arguments on both sides." stupid fucking bitch

@arbysismyuncle @Ohboycjs @GianmarcoSoresi there is objective goodness and it is missing in your life. i hope you find it.

@tJacquesG1 @Ohboycjs @GianmarcoSoresi "life is more pleasant" and "as a general positivist who believes in objective truth, I cannot agree that there is such thing as objectively funny. funny depends on context, comedian, and audience. funny doesn't exist a priori. there's not a platonic form of funny." mmhmm

@arbysismyuncle @Ohboycjs @GianmarcoSoresi buddy I seriously hope your life improves. you express so much negativity in your life. i hope you get to a place where you can express positivity. life's just more pleasant when you get there.

@tJacquesG1 @Ohboycjs @GianmarcoSoresi right but thats because youre a fucking faggot and thats not who comedies for. Sorry bud.

@arbysismyuncle @Ohboycjs @GianmarcoSoresi as a general positivist who believes in objective truth, I cannot agree that there is such thing as objectively funny. funny depends on context, comedian, and audience. funny doesn't exist a priori. there's not a platonic form of funny.

@Ohboycjs @GianmarcoSoresi i mean there is "objectively funny" i know it hurts your world view but there just is. And where exactly in my reply do i say "Tony Hinchcliffe is funny." Look real hard i might have hidden it somewhere. get back to me when you find where i claimed "Tony Hinchcliffe is funny".

@Blaz3dH4z3420X @PotatoMcWhiskey the speed limit is the limit of how fast to go, not the target speed

@PotatoMcWhiskey Well, first of all fuck face if you’re going to drive on the road, you need to be going the speed limit. Secondly, there’s literal fucking lanes on the side for them. Also, there’s a sidewalk so fuck you and your fucking bike riders

Car drivers when they have to go 25km/hr for a minute or two so as not to kill another person with their giant metal brick on wheels

@dieworkwear that was an interesting read, thank you for the advice

I think "fun socks" should be used judiciously, as a lot of what's worn today feels more childish than whimsical. IMO, most men should avoid them entirely. But if you insist on wearing them, here are some suggestions on how to make them look less bad. 🧵

@H0ldingPattern @banterrealism this is as inane as a red-button advocate telling me that not putting shopping carts back is blue-button behavior. this does not meaningfully map to the buttons scenario because it lacks the central tension

@tJacquesG1 @banterrealism You’re just thinking too rigidly regarding what the button experiment is meant to represent, I think

Red button pushers

@H0ldingPattern @banterrealism What part of the red/blue buttons makes everyone suffer at all if 50% votes blue? The premise is that everyone is totally okay if 50% hit blue. And there's no cap to red button pushing. Theoretically all participants could hit red. Not possible for all cars to park under bridge.

@tJacquesG1 @banterrealism If you hit 51% hit red, all blues die. If 5 cars park under the overpass to avoid the weather,(Red) all other cars must now suffer the weather (Die) even though the parked cars do not. If all cars drive (Blue), all cars suffer, but all cars also make it to garages faster

@H0ldingPattern @banterrealism this situation lacks the central logical tension that makes the blue/red buttons thought experiment so compelling

@H0ldingPattern @banterrealism I'm confused--with the buttons, it's possible for everyone to hit red. Here, it's not possible for everyone to get under the bridge. With the buttons, everyone is okay if 50% hit blue. Here, there is no clear 50% threshold to make everyone okay

@H0ldingPattern @banterrealism It's been represented as people jumping on a train track with pressure-sensitive brakes (or already on the train track and deciding whether to jump off) or as nuclear bunkers and nuclear missiles. Here, is the red button stop the car? And is the blue button keep driving?

@H0ldingPattern @banterrealism yes. I've seen so many ways to concretely represent the thought experiment, but this does not map onto the experiment at all

@banterrealism bud you could have just replied to me lol

Guys if anyone comes into the comments trying to ask (seriously) how on earth this is analogous to the red/blue button thought experiment, literally don't explain how. They don't deserve, nor actually want to know.

@caryatis @AmanTGeorge buddy do you need someone explain the etymology of sideWALK and PEDEstrian to you

I think i just don’t agree with your premise that a sidewalk is pedestrian space. It’s shared space, just like streets. And if i can’t get around the ped, i’d have to go into the street which is more dangerous! Ultimately everybody has an incentive to avoid collisions so everybody should put in reasonable effort. You just can’t be completely oblivious in public space

While it is legal to ride a bike on the sidewalk in much of DC, when you are on the sidewalk, you are a *guest* in pedestrians' space, and you need to act like it. Slow speeds and total deference to pedestrians sharing the space.

@shane1step why would you go stand down there

Фанаты красной кнопки: нет, вы сами выбираете умереть, мы просто стоим в сторонке. Как они стоят в сторонке:

@jacksinkyarm i don't think importance is defined by proportional size in comparison to the entire observable universe

"If the entire observable universe were the size of Earth, our home planet would be smaller than a grain of sand." Tell me again how important you are. *slurps coffee*
