Some fuckin' guy or another. Rollercoaster enjoyer, polytheistic weird fiction cultist, mediocre talent for self-deprecation.
Oh! I see. Disappointing, but still useful.

We already got a preview of this with the Palworld stuff last year. It wasn't pretty.

Thanks, wish I'd seen it before a week and a half of angsting over getting the flu vaccine, as well as the day I lost lol

Good to know for the future

The thing about behaving this way, even as a cynical opportunitist, is that you alienate all the people in your life who have principles, or even just standards.

So, uh, who does that leave you to socialize with?

Does this work if you don't have a disgnosable immune condition
December 22, 2025 at 5:02 AM
Yeah, toxic parasociality is bad enough in fandoms

Then there's hatedoms

They could at least come up with a cool new name for it, like the American version of Erik the Red Land. Can't respect the laziness, you know?

If only they could make her former colleagues at the NYT find her likable

'Ratio me please' should be their maxim

Joke's on you, there's nothing of use in there. He's become the embodied emanation of Content itself, transcending the need for consciousness or agency. He simply IS.

Do we need to talk about the shape of Bari Weiss's Zionism (seemingly one of her few actual principles)? I don't think it tells us anything we didn't already know.

Could do without a 60 Minutes WaPo arc

Man, I can't wait for the lengthy longforms on the 'hours before the decision'. Not at all exhausted with those being depressingly relevant to contemporary politics.
December 22, 2025 at 3:27 AM
I struggle to imagine why I'd give Bari Weiss the benefit of the doubt on any subject, ever. She's repeatedly proven herself to be a shameless careerist and networker with very limited principles.
December 22, 2025 at 3:19 AM
Yeah, it's almost always some version of this with her lol
December 22, 2025 at 3:16 AM
Bari is fundamentally a very transactional person; it's why she's been so successful IMO. My guess is that someone asked her to do it. Whatever rationale she might offer (to herself or to anyone else) is usually cooked up after the fact in service of that.

That is a guess, to be clear.

Yeah I mean I've seen a lot of people approvingly cite the salvageable parts of Schmitt recently and like

You're gonna have a hard time with Schmitt both as a person and as a theorist, trust me, but there are still some real insights there.

Also frankly if you're drawing a straight line between that strain of classical conservatism and conservatism today you've made a huge mistake
December 22, 2025 at 2:13 AM
Just because Burke and people like him made some very stupid arguments about the illegitimacy of French grievances doesn't mean everything they wrote is motivated bullshit. That's just silly.
December 22, 2025 at 2:12 AM
Reminds me of the time I got checked for saying pogChamp out loud a few years ago
December 22, 2025 at 2:06 AM
Ooo they gave you a certificate and everything

To pass any potential excellence audits most likely
