This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Halm, who according to his social media profiles just graduated from Harvard, tweeted that he’s simply in the arena trying stuff.

"I just wanna buuuuuuuuilllddddd" goes the annoying little fuck even before he's asked any questions about social impact and such

Yeah I saw (1). It mostly made me almost chuckle in the “I’m actually wincing inside” way (I’m not even surprised at that kind of grift anyway, I’ve just seen too much of it from coiners)

To (2), heh. Yeah, it’s pretty wild.

(3) I saw, but didn’t see the replies because i refuse to give birdsite logged-in view metrics. My tiny part in helping nosedive Felon Tusk’s shittery. But it in turn means I can’t see replies, because they intentionally broke reply-visibility on loginless display

I more meant my post as to the person instead of the “product”, but I guess I wasn’t really clear about that, mea culpa

Oh I wasn't commenting to criticize you -- just adding more insane context for people who didn't feel like reading the full article lol

Fair enough :)

Because workthings I’m in super literal mode all day and don’t tend to read tone/subtext by default
