from the estate agents' site:

This is a magical building in the Oxfordshire countryside, set high above the River Thames. There is a romance to the building, with its turreted, castle-like appearance, and uninterrupted views of the spires of Oxford.

it's not a castle! it's just got certain castle-like characteristics

from that language I'm reminded of the artist who went undercover as a billionaire, along with another article I read somewhere but lost the link to

so many of these places selling vibes and ideas. they're not residences, they're showpieces. they're "it's got an indoor cinema and 5 private bars and ...." flexing

Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]
