Yud would jump on a couch.

Before if I understand the beef here correctly.

I remember those machines (in general)!

Thats Eigan’s wife he’s talking about btw.

The Palladium guys are shilling.

ABSOLUTELY CURSED

Happy birthday!

SDB-II can do moving targets I think.

She’s like the vicar of dibley so this is really quite funny when you think about it.

There are a couple 19th century ones that fit and didn’t go lethal. The New Motive Power guys would be the best match imo.

Peoples Temple?

Actually the Mormon thing might work given its a priest I’m talking with. Thank you!

OT: whats the best way to explain rationalism et all to complete normal people with no connection to tech?

The turn against tech can’t come fast enough.

O’Leary is a huge fraudulent piece of shit.

The Bismarck Analysis crew were sneering at Sagan being a filthy peace activist so I would hazard that the era of ‘survivable nuclear war’ rides again.

Sometimes I feel blessed to be beneath this all.

The whole space scene really depresses me now. The Musk cult and TESCREAL and more overt ideologies (I’ve seen claimed old time L5 people throw around ‘spiteful mutant’ and other stuff). The whole thing just seems to be going nasty.

Astronomy thankfully is still chill.

Oh man I need to up my caloric intake (ozempic makes this really hard).

In which TPOT unites to yell at scooter because he isn’t down with mental health apartheid schemes.

Holy shit.

Well the FFVII house was kinda like a rationalist grouphouse…

It really is unwarranted self importance. t humanities major

Quick, throw a grey tribe pride parade!

Theres a specific word for that phenomena I believe, I just can’t remember at the moment. It certainly is a thing with all the high control group cults, say ex-JW’s.

Ex-evangelical spotted!

They really do believe everyone here is a raging sociopath bent on oppressing innocent nerds.

I doubt you had to do square dancing lessons in school over there but apparently that was a RW thing too.

Ran across this a few weeks back and boy howdy it explained some things…

Hanson is already weeping about this.

I kinda want to go read the old Singularity fic and enjoy any Zeerust that pops up.

Everything Maxis did is remake worthy.
