Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
(Credit and/or blame to David Gerard for starting this.)
Tech stonks continuing to crater š«§ š«§ š«§
Iām sorry for your 401Ks, but Iād pay any price to watch these fuckers lose.

(mods let me know if this aint it)
the only things that aināt it are my chances of retiring comfortably, but I always knew thatād be the case
itās gonna be a massive disaster across the wider economy, and - and this is key - absolutely everyone saw this coming a year ago if not two
In b4 thereās a 100k word essay on LW about how intentionally crashing the economy will dry up VC investment in āfrontier AGI labsā and thus will give the šs more time to solve āalignmentā and save us all from big š mommy. Therefore, MAGA harming every human alive is in fact the most effective altruism of all! Thank you Musky, I just couldnāt understand your 10,000 IQ play.
This kind of stuff, which seems to hit a lot harder than the anti trump stuff, makes me feel that a vance presidency would implode quite quickly due to other maga toadies trying to backstab toadkid here.
I know longer remember what this man actually looks like
I still can never tell when Charlie Kirkās face has been photoshopped to be smaller and when not.
Charlie Kirkās podcast thumbnail looks like a fake podcast making fun of Charlie Kirk
ā¦why do I get the feeling the AI bubble just popped
For me it feels like this is pre ai/cryptocurrency bubble pop. But with luck (as the maga gov infusions of both fail, and actually quicken the downfall (Musk/Trump like it so it must be iffy), if we are lucky). Sadly it will not be like the downfall of enron, as this is all very distributed, so I fear how much will be pulled under).
Mr. President, this is simply too much winning, I cannot stand the winning anymore š
