yt short

may shorts forever die writhing (along with the people that made it happen)

such a fucking abysmal format, coming along only because ~~twitter~~ ~~periscope~~ ~~facebook-lying-to-everyone~~ ~~quibi~~ "tiktok" popularity made every bigtech shitlord feel product fomo and decide they had to do it ritenao just in case they miss the next big thing, despite afterward still sitting on the exact same extractivist bullshit as their source of money as before

this isn’t wikipedia, and the point of this post was not in fact the thing you think it was, you utter and complete raging fuckwit

Apologies, I meant I have never disruptively edited the article

"what do you mean keep the music down? it's not that loud"

I was simply trying to improve its quality

"I merely wish you to be on my level? what's that, what level is it? it's mine of course, what a ridiculous question"

I'm not a power user of Wikipedia and don't understand all your specialist terminology so forgive me if I make the odd mistake or faux pas

don't even have a sneer for this. this "oh, oops, totes didn't mean to offend!" shit that these fuckers pull when they get caught out is so goddamn tired. facepunch material.

(it's not even particularly "good" darvo)

Please don't doxx me.

"goooootta make the other people responsible for my own actions! that's the ticket!"

but corpos can’t think long term

they can. it's just that, structurally, incentives are far more strongly geared to not do that in almost all cases.

"wikipediocracy"? fucking seriously?

for all the good and bad bits that wikipedia has (and there are notably many of the latter too), a rulership is definitely not among that list afaik. wtf.

(e: I'm going purely off the domain name there, but holy shit what a name)

not quite entirely what I had in mind, but it will be interesting to see what happens with that down the way as well

I didn't previously know I needed this in my life but "mentioned in the stubsack" needs to become a household phrase

Ooh, there’s an idea. Train a LLM on his logorrhoea, output to a variety of places (as often with his face on a profile as not), and watch the little man twist himself up as he tries to position being okay with it while also really hating that it’s happening

This reply is a truly astounding all-rounder:

Indeed, decent, down-to-earth people should unite in a time where both power hungry fascists and foreign adversaries are exploiting the extreme divides in the country.

Fractally not-even-wrong. Masterful.

(ed: okay jeez i just now s/correct/wrong/‘d this (with the latter being my original intent). That’s what day-long migraines get you, kids!)

ugh god that guy

haven't heard the name in a while (thank fuck), but the last time around (~2019 iirc?) it was when applebaum was catching bans and all ~~jake's friends~~ the sexual assaulters pulled together to "protect"
