Welp, so much commenting for me then.

Guilty as charged! Turning 30 soon, just shed the last remnants of my prior organically grown social circle, having judged so many people for their emotional callousness, sloppy th…

Spot on.

>narcissistic idiots who are intolerable to be around >want to hang out all the time and have lots of sex and everyone will oblige you Same people.

You make valid points - but I don't think the author of the post that I was replying to would be able to appreciate the nuance. By bringing up the Karen White example, aren't you b…

Nice to see they're keeping the pronunciation ambiguity!

Each piece of content's full semantic structure (think https://xkcd.com/657/ but 10x-1000x more elaborate) should be published in a machine-readable format; then in your personal c…

What stake do you have in either of the debates that you're referencing? When was the last time a politician's family member or a trans person did anything good or bad for you, per…

Unless you go full self-hosted, your website is also under the control of your hosting provider and DNS registry. You implicitly trust those, until you don't. (See the Linode/Itch.…

By anyone who uses them as the loaded terms that they are. Oh, how I would hope that "positivity" and "negativity" would be understood as relating to position and negation, like in…

Spot on. The terms "negativity" and "positivity" are basically tools for abuse.

>What can I say that prevents you from saying something? Any syntactially correct but illogical thing, basically. The textbook example is "have you stopped beating your wife? yes o…
