Want to wade into the sandy surf of the abyss? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid.
Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
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 cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned so many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

The newest addition to her polycule āgot my attention by radiating Dark Lord energy while actually trying to save the world. Heās ruthlessly excellent.ā
When he funded Manifold, Scott Alexander said that it was āChaotic Evil.ā These people keep switching between cutesy language and rawr I am the dark lord language, and their examples of evil are often bathetic while their serious plans are things like āexpel brown people so they donāt pollute our bloodā and ābetter nuclear war than giving sand anxiety.ā They reject history, and they reject real-life adventures and contact with people with diverse experience, so evil is a very abstract concept to them.
I think this means we need a moratorium on fantasy TTRPGs until we figure out whatās going on
This is exactly what a white MtG main would say.

Looks more like āPUA energyā to me.
Isnāt this mostly a pretentious way of saying someone I recently fucked?
There is a difference between āsleeps or plays aroundā and āhas extended physical and emotional relationships outside of cohabitation and shared bank accounts.ā It sounds like she has four ongoing long-term relationships and attends kink events, and that her partners know she has other partners and attends kink events.
Polycule implies some level of ongoing relationship that probably involves more than just meeting up for sex.
