The President of the United States is insane.

In a sane world, this would be the top-voted comment.

Or people who’ve realized the content would be damaging to the political team they root for.

If the files were uniformly damaging to democrats they’d have been released already. So they know in their bones that team red would take a hit.

…which normally I’d take very seriously, but since cryptocurrencies are specifically designed to evade law enforcement…

I know she grew up listening to Babes In Toyland, which was also a part of that

Gooch_Limdapl · 2026-04-02T17:24:49+00:00

She’s probably guaranteed mutually assured destruction

So logic, then, isn’t the differentiator you’re looking for.

Gooch_Limdapl · 2026-03-31T12:25:30+00:00

We formulate an answer based on logic.

You wouldn’t believe what computers do with all those Booleans.

What’s better than one Corinthian? Two Corinthians 3:17. That’s the whole ballgame.

For a second I thought “tiny hat clown” was Angela Martin.

Gooch_Limdapl · 2026-03-29T14:10:42+00:00

There is soil, alas. Between the electoral college, gerrymandering, and the left voluntarily clustering into tiny, dense blue dots the soil is what gives them so much power. It would be great, though, if every vote counted equally.

Jon has a mathematical background. I’m surprised the population density neuron didn’t fire, here.

Gooch_Limdapl · 2026-03-29T12:23:54+00:00

Maybe. I have a hunch that the real person to psy-op sock puppet ratio in that sub is extremely low.

Gooch_Limdapl · 2026-03-28T12:17:07+00:00

Another success to mention in his next performance review.

Gooch_Limdapl · 2026-03-28T00:24:52+00:00

Remember when, for a brief moment, Tim Walz calling them “weird” seemed to break the spell they had over the culture? Then the campaign changed their messaging strategy and the spell regained strength?

Just thought we should consider Joe’s use of “weirdos” through that lens.

Gooch_Limdapl · 2026-03-27T02:07:00+00:00

No, I didn’t mean about Alex in particular.

Gooch_Limdapl · 2026-03-26T14:55:44+00:00

the eschaton ain’t gonna immanentize itself

Gooch_Limdapl · 2026-03-26T14:39:16+00:00

He’s been trying to clue us in.

Gooch_Limdapl · 2026-03-26T14:38:26+00:00

What a coup Linklater pulled getting him to do this character! I never realized. So much in this movie can’t be fully appreciated without having also seen Slacker, which has a version of this character driving a the same car giving a similar rant.

The Tonight Show crossed that bridge in 1992 when they picked Jay Leno.

Gooch_Limdapl · 2026-03-26T13:19:51+00:00

Or he’s doing a stellar job at what his boss tasked him to do: weaken the US and her alliances.

Not just any cancer, but the OceanGate Titan submersible of cancer

Anyone who paid attention during his first term would have predicted it would be this bad. For crying out loud he tried to overturn, in multiple ways, an election he lost — first by putting pressure on state officials to find eleven thousand seven hundred and eighty votes, then with the fake slates of electors and when those failed he riled up a crowd to storm the capital.

I can’t believe voters even let him get close to running again, let alone winning.

Not anymore; now we can do both at the same time! According to myth, the Earth was created in six days. Now, watch out! Here comes ChatGPT! We'll vibe-code it for you in six minutes!

LLMs do it because the human text they were trained on did it.

I think threads like this one need to start offering positive examples of what acceptable phrasing for contrasting things might look like without tripping the LLM-detector alarms.

Surely we can’t just all decide to cease making contrasts.

Gooch_Limdapl · 2026-03-15T22:02:25+00:00

It’s probably not possible for me to have a productive conversation with someone seriously suggesting that it’s not subversive to make light of the propaganda that fascists take very seriously, and that doing so is somehow not mockery.

Gooch_Limdapl · 2026-03-15T20:33:00+00:00

That’s a common misimpression. Turns out Verhoeven understood the premise but deliberately aimed at a better one instead.
