  1. Prikvačeni tweet

    I got some pushback to the idea of replacing The Fish Tweet (my only good tweet) with a pitch for my eventually-to-launch-newsletter about conflicts between social-justice activism and science and how to cool them, so this pinned quote-RT is a compromise.

    Twitter, or at least my corner of it, is BAD. While occasionally funny or informative, overall it has a strong net-negative effect on my thinking, writing, and even mood. I'm going to try to stay off as long as I can. Won't be able to check DMs so email (now and always) is best.

    I guess one argument is that if you hear the word 'savage,' even in a benign contxt, that trips a web of association sthat will cause you to be more bigoted toward indigeneous people. But if that's true, how can you possibly justify games drenched in guns and violence?

    I would actually like a psychologist or philosopher of language to explain these takes to me. I genuinely cannot understand what argument they are attempting to make. Or is it just a moral contagion thing? It makes no linguistic sense.

    Reconciling my belief in the nobility and necessity of journalism as a calling and a profession becomes harder and harder every day to reconcile with the behavior and mores of many of the people currently doing journalism.

    For a good chuckle check out the GoodReads reviews for this book. Just on the first page you see multiple people who called it one of the greatest books they've ever read and then solely because of the controversy gone back and changed their review to 1 star. lol

    If Biden pulls off the right ratio of poking voters and massaging voters, I think he can hold on to this thing

    Took a break from a busy work patch to begin Subnautica a few nights ago, and it reminded me that whenever I play a survival game, I always start by going "Hmmm, this 'Useless Scrap Of Wood (Has Literally No Use)' resource is probably important, better harvest it for two hours"

    It's weird to me that anyone is skeptical that this actually generated credible threats. Half the ghouls doubting this out loud were on-the-other-handing a literal massacre of French satirists just five years ago. People are insanely censorious and evil during these outrages.

    It's weird that people are mad at this tweet when the publisher said she cancelled the events because of "specific threats." Online shaming isn't the issue here.

    I gotta think about this. My general stance had been "understandable, but not perfectly executed and obviously morally fraught." But I can't come up, off the top of my head, with a simple argument for the net-good position.

    It would be the easiest fucking thing in the world for any of these ghouls to say "I think the book was bad, but obviously she shouldn't be threatened physically for having written it." Watching Twitter incentives radicalize people into insanity is something else.

    Checked the thread again. You got Emily Gould, Saeed Jones, and a bunch of other famous writers who are mad at Michael Barbaro for saying physical threats against a writer are bad. They disagree. This is unreal. People's brains are just melting left and right. It's disgraceful.
