It’s not where I obtained this PR but how.

the inability to follow a through b through c here is….something

oof

thanks for linking that hyuna, I’d run across it once but lost the link/name

it sucks when they can’t even be funny :(

you probably missed the stop where they would’ve told you

tell me why 29 gerbils would be funny

chatgpt is that you

feel like I’ve seen variations on that in a few places myself. would be interested in seeing a source, if anyone has. could be an interesting piece by itself

I snorted a bit of my drink

I unfollowed masnick but haven’t muted yet. been close tho

relatedly, Josh Johnson’s video about this is pretty great. I’m afk rn but I’ll get a link soon and update

e: link

slightly OT veering to the point: I try to maintain a relatively diverse set of feeds on muh socials, including finding people from other cultures and backgrounds in that. and yet I’d ended up muting this person some months ago for constantly being very Thotleader with borderline populist “edgy” takes that always have some pernicious shit wrong with it

this skeet is a perfect example of it.

yup

Yep, he’s been saying bad shit for a while (18~24mo I’m aware of), glad more people are seeing it though

can we print this on shirts and send it to their office(s)?

I guess the main problem is getting reaction shots with the recipients…

sorry my brain’s already clocked out for the day (/week?), so [insert sneer here]

context is this

Meanwhile, the $800 million Kraken raised across its two recent rounds of financing further solidifies the company’s balance sheet before its planned IPO next year… Prior to the two rounds, Kraken had raised only $27 million in venture capital.

simply a mere 29.6x amplification. perfectly normal. 12000000% in line with the economic market shift between checks notes Less Than A Decade Ago and now

politely: while I understand the impulse behind this discursive angle, it’s probably not the greatest idea to have it here

it sucks when you learn a thing like that about a person. it’s like blowing an efuse: generally one way, not easy to go back without a lot of work, and you may not want to bother

I’m sure specifics and timing don’t matter. can always tune that efficient later, amirite?!

(although once again a very I am the scream at how rapidly this toxic waste is becoming rampant in the commons :|)
