"Mad at the Internet" - a/k/a My Psychotherapy Sessions

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
I second this, that whole article gave me such a belly laugh, and apparently this isn't the only troon to get govt help to die as pointed out by @TheGoodNamesHaveBeenTaken

Don't turn this talk with destiny into a gay debate about Troons and shit repeating the same bullshit or silly bloodsport. It would be nice to try to find common ground, even if it's hard.

And pliz try not to ask people to read the Unabomber manifesto or quote a Nazi lawyer. Quote Freud, "Civilization and it's discontents" or Plato's Republic's first chapter, for the same ideas.

What about the incoming rape of Predictitit next month? Nobody seems to be talking about that, I did a Thread on it awhile ago, but I haven't seen much talk about it anywhere including Tim Pool even though he likes to reference it every so often, the hypocrisy when it comes to online gambling or sports bets vs prediction Markets is imo notable.
 
Re: Tomlinson. The charity SFWA is a 501(c)(3), and as such they have restrictions on how much special treatment they can give their members vs the general public. We have leaks of their internal forum in which the accountant says it "keeps him awake at night" the issue of fulfilling this ratio, before he stepped down. Would they have funded it if Pat wasn't personal friends with the people in charge?

Not going to pretend I know the tax code and not discussing the reporting to the IRS bit, but it's not obvious that they didn't fuck up by spending more money on Pat's SLAPP lolsuit than they have on all other legal grants in the past decade combined. The fact they are so secretive about having funded it, even to members, doesn't look great.

And they appear to have listed it within their own legal expense in the tax forms and not a grant given out.
 
If there is ever an episode of Mad At The Internet where Nicolas Cage is not mentioned, then we will know that Josh has been renditioned to a CIA prison, and that a body double has been put in his place.

We should be taking this more seriously as a community. How do we deal with Josh's deep state doppelganger, knowing that he is in the employ of the CIA ? If he plays the role well, keeps the site running in the same spirit, and doesn't use it as front for shady ops on foreign territory, then I am all for letting it slide.

There was a mercifully short literary fad a few years ago for reworking out of copyright fiction to incorporate fantastical elements. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies popularised the trend. I also read Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters and would quite like that time back.

What I want to read now is a retooling of On the Road narrated by Ethan Ralph.
