Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid!
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post, there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
My man spent 10 paragraphs failing to describe the intended vibe of the event he’s organizing. This is what happens when you only read tweets and substacks, you completely lose the ability to describe the immaterial.
dunno about you, but that absolutely informs me about the event in fullness
No, nope, nononono, nope right off, no, nope.
If the moon gets mad at us that’s why
They are a satire of themselves. You really can read only that and perfectly imagine how insufferable the event is.
There is also the ‘Creating the Fooming shoggoths after action report’ talk where they talk about how hard it was to get the AI to make the songs, and to get all the raunchy popculture references just right without it making references to Ernest Clines poetry.
I’d rather see that than the concert, but that’s a pretty low bar to meet. They are spending more time tricking the autocomplete into working than it would take to write goofy songs directly.
Clearly you are not familiar with Clines raunchy poetry.
