- Comment on YSK Joseph Stalin created the Great Terror. He started killing people randomly including artists, generals, doctors, diplomats, government officials. Everyone was terrified. 2 days ago:
And why not? It worked out so well for Robespierre!
- Comment on Humans BY DEFAULT do not want to commit violence towards other humans, otherwise things like Killer's Remorse and PTSD would not exist. 2 weeks ago:
In fact, if you kill or severely maim someone, you’ll always feel conflicted about it if you are a good human
If someone you thought was a good person killed someone else - in self defence let’s say - and didn’t feel bad about it at all, would you then categorise that person as a bad person?
- Comment on Mathematics disproves Matrix theory, says reality isn’t simulation 2 weeks ago:
Um, why? As a general rule, the point of running a simulation is to find out what happens under some circumstances where you don’t know what happens. If you’re imposing conditions like that, then you aren’t so much running a simulation as you are running some kind of procedural generation.
- Comment on ‘It’s about redemption’: Peter Molyneux says Masters of Albion will make up for decades of ‘overpromising on things’ 3 weeks ago:
Scamming a bunch of NFT idiots is an arguably better funding model than promising a bunch of stuff to Kickstarter backers that you aren’t going to deliver on.

- Comment on Japanese Government Calls on Sora 2 Maker OpenAI to Refrain From Copyright Infringement, Says Characters From Manga and Anime Are 'Irreplaceable Treasures' That Japan Boasts to the World 5 weeks ago:
I know people who are still calling Snickers bars Marathons. Telling people to let it go isn’t going to do you any good, either.

I don’t mind most marine mammals, but sea lions? I could do without sea lions.
- Comment on Texas National Guard arriving in Chicago 1 month ago:
The Posse Comitatus Act makes using troops to enforce federal law illegal, it’s true, and the UCMJ does say violating the law is an illegal order. But it’s not unconstitutional, and given the order came directly from the president and given the “unitary executive” bullshit that the supreme court has been on recently, I think it might be dubious that the LA ruling would survive an appeal that made it to the supreme court.
- Comment on Texas National Guard arriving in Chicago 1 month ago:
I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.
The supreme court seems to bear out that Trump’s orders are constitutional and legal, and therefore they are following legitimate orders.
The problem isn’t that they are traitors, the problem is that they aren’t, but they should be.
- Comment on Amazon is making it impossible to remove the DRM from Kindle Books 1 month ago:
In general I agree, but I am going to have to ask you for a source on that last one.
- Comment on Lead 1 month ago:
Advocating for a thing to be banned is to advocate for violence against the people who do that thing; the fact that the state does the violent acts doesn’t change that.
Charlie Kirk spent a good chunk of his life advocating for the abortion ban which has harmed and killed people. In my book Charlie Kirk is, at least in part, responsible for all that harm. He deserved what he got at least as much as any healthcare CEO.
FWIW I’m not advocating for either Christo-fascist podcasters or healthcare CEOs to be killed. That doesn’t mean it can’t be funny when it happens, though.
- Comment on If my first kiss was pre-transition and i am now a guy but i always had a guy brain, does that make my first kiss with a "straight" guy gay ? 1 month ago:
This is a shitpost community, my dude.
- Comment on What is the difference between pansexual, bisexual, and omnisexual? How do I know which one I am? 1 month ago:
Pansexuals are simply omnisexuals who don’t understand that it is wrong to use Greek prefixes with Latin root words. /hj

Hmm. It looks like some kind of quagga, only less stripey.

Does that also include the urge to make woop woop woop noises while doing so?

This will surely come in handy next time I have to do this.
- Comment on Why It's OK to Block Ads (2015) 2 months ago:
Isn’t ad blocking, as the industry magazine AdAge has called it, “robbery, plain and simple”?
Robbing corporations is based, though, actually.
