Ah, gotcha. I guess I'm sensitive to people using the word "misandry" from years spent in bad corners on the internet. I can't speak for others too much but it's an loaded term for me.

Was having trouble understanding this so I translated it through a couple LLMs, it just cost me a few cubic meters of water:

I am very smart. I’d like to point out one thing. Everyone other than me is stupid. Herpa derpa derpa derp.

DYK about what happens when you boil a pot of crab-frog mutant hybrids of varying degrees of crab and frog nature? The hybrids with a higher frog-nature quotient (FQ) don't notice the pot's temperature increasing. The ones with low FQ notice and try to jump out of the pot, but those with high crab-nature quotient (CQ) grab them as they try to jump out of the pot, dooming the hybrids to a their boiled fate.

You exhibit both high CQ and FQ yet are dumber than either a crab or a frog. Curious!

Folks, huge W today. I was hanging out with my parents today and my mother was scrolling her feed, commenting out loud about everything she saw when she came across some autoplag content. “This is fake!” she said, and I could not be prouder. Not just because she IDed the slop, but because it meant she at least has a better brain than my trumper family members that habitually repost trumper slop.

Cherry on top: she showed me a text chain where she was trolling a “my phone died, this is my new number” scammer.

Just a general comment on the state of things. Now that Musk has fused with the ideological flesh chimera of the next US government and is tapping others to be absorbed, any US politics will be TechTakes-adjacent. Perhaps some ground rules must be set so we aren't drowned in non-procedurally generated slop.

Either way, I'm cutting back on the musk unless it is directly sneerable.

Just trying to be helpful! I'm definitely not trying to introduce you to this cult that was called out as a cult a few comments earlier! Which you would agree with me if you read all the things I posted and realised that we are the reasonablists.

How cute, look at that wild rat trying to appear neutral and unbiased and not-at-all a rat and Just Leaving This Here for you to read where “this” refers to the entire fucking canon of rationalist writings.

Have any of the trumps been on the red scare pod yet? Feel like that’s on the timeline.

 

Didn’t see this news posted but please link previous correspondence if I missed it.

Kind of sharing this because the headline is a little sensationalist and makes it sound like MS is hard right (they are, but not like this) and anti-EU.

I mean, they probably are! Especially if it means MS is barred from monopolies and vertical integration.
