What logically follows is that I need to be as weird and eccentric as possible in order to counteract the memetic contagion of a lovecraftian averaging machine. I bet I could make a cult out of this!

Remember that!

Prometheus was punished by the gods for giving the gift of knowledge to man. He was cast into the bowels of the earth and pecked by birds.

You bet I do!

This lasts right until I learn that someone likes bugs. Then I just show them the most recent bug picture I have taken. So much less energy. So much less nerve-wracking. I want to show you my cool bug photos and I want to see your cool bug photos. We know what we’re about (we’re about sharing cool bug photos).

I will happily switch over once libinput isn’t absolute ass with my touchpad! Or if I could adjust its settings in any meaningful way!! Or if you could let me use my old touchpad driver!!!

Until then you can attempt to pry x11 from my cold undead still-animated hands

It’s in Human Nature to be violent, which I why I’ve made sure to arm my kindergarten class with knives. Because otherwise I would not be accounting for Human Nature.

(note: this is sarcastic, I did not arm a kindergarten class with knives)

Unrelated to the specific question you asked but you would probably enjoy reading They Thought They Were Free by Milton Mayer. The author befriended ten nazis after the war and writes about what he learned from that.

Clamping down on the affirmation bias right? Right??

I am of the firm opinion that if a machine is “speaking” to me then it must sound a cartoon robot. No exceptions!

I must generate a qr code. I search for sites to do this. The first result lets me do this but requires an email to download the thing. The second result lets me do this but requires an email to download the thing. The third result lets me do this but requires an email to download the thing. Each of them display the generated qr code on screen but then refuse to let me download it. Technology sure is amazing.

I can kind of see this right now. I’m in a first year course and almost everyone has a laptop in front of them. I’m in a fourth year course and most people use paper notes. It could be survivorship or a result of differences in the desks, or it could be generational.

All the girls want to talk about gay, but I just want to talk about postgres! There is nothing better than postgres, and database management systems are a great way to break the ice on the first date. But women just don’t understand it!!! All they want to talk about is gay, saying things like “you seem really nice but you’re crying in my arms at 3am telling me of your lifelong desire to date a man who would understand postgres, I’ll support you no matter what but have you considered that you may not be entirely straight?” Silly women!

I love that shirt! I have three godzilla shirts and now I’d like a fourth

Friendly! I have experience growing food and I’m pretty good at cooking it too. Someone else can teach me how to kill and eat the deer that infest this area so that we can have a balanced diet. We will do mutual aid and survive against challenges that we could not face alone. Apes together strong.

When I see people complaining about losing their hair to male pattern baldness I’m thinking “just take finasteride” or “why don’t you just take finasteride” or “just block the DHT this isn’t some inevitable thing and that’d probably help so why don’t you just do that?” But I’m not a testosterone enjoyer so I lack their perspective on things

No work experience? Obviously u just don’t want to work

“can I have your pronouns?” NO YOU CAN’T you fey thinking you’re so sly with your word games. My girlfriend asked me “can I have your hand in marriage” and I left her immediately because I only have one of those on account of my ex wife

Carbonated water + cranberry apple juice mix

Or carbonated water + a little lemon or lime juice

Yeah I think it’s going to make me go insane
