That cat looks overweight.

Literally no one was there when France landed there, so you can either a) ask France and Spain for their thoughts, b) resurrect the Fuegians who visited and let them have it, forcibly deporting the people who’ve lived there for centuries, or c) disregard pragmatism and say they aren’t part of any country – either way, you can stop obnoxiously trying to defend Argentina’s baseless colonialist claim under the guise of “anticolonialism”.

To the extent it belongs to anyone, it obviously belongs to the UK far more than it does to the asshurt losers who flaccidly tried and utterly failed to assert sovereignty over it.

Ah, yes, the fact that prehistoric Fuegians may have visited the Falklands surely means they’re the birthright of Argentina. Airtight anti-colonialist explanation.

May the ladybugs rest in peace. 🪦

(Anyway, in case anyone wasn’t aware, Graham died of aortic dissection.)

Sorry, I should’ve clarified that I meant “unfalsifiable” not in the sense that it’s impossible to evaluate statistically but in the sense that it’s weasel wording, where regardless of the evidence, you can always retreat and declare what you said isn’t false because you never made a specific enough claim compared to what you’re implying.

“Doctors believe vaccines cause autism.” is true in the sense that there are doctors who exist who believe that, even if the overwhelming consensus of the medical community is that the claim is fraudulent nonsense.

(Yes, I recognize the irony in retreating to a clarification of what I said; it wasn’t intentional.)

“history books:”

Which ones? My high school US history textbook talked about the Coal Wars with a mention of Blair Mountain. Which isn’t necessarily representative, but then “history books:” is an unfalsifiable claim.

This man looks like he was engineered in a lab to be the villain of an iCarly special.

Bethesda is hit particularly hard by the layoffs, IGN understands, with staff across its many development studios

It’s talking about the publisher.

This just reads like a press release from Sun-Ways laundered through Euronews. The title reads “Italy could be the next country” but never mentions Italy a single time in the body of the article. The entire idea seems comically inefficient compared to easier, higher-yield places to put solar panels.

“Oh, we have to specially design these so they resist cracking and setting on fire, we can’t nearly angle them properly for optimal efficiency, they sit on top of critical infrastructure, and they’re as low to the ground as humanly possible? Perfect!”

Edit: Whoops. My brain straight-up skipped a paragraph.

If you’re looking for a biography, I highly recommend this one – if only because of the increasingly ludicrous ways he gets roped into positions of responsibility despite just wanting to grill for god’s sake and because his relationship with his second cousin Thomas Jefferson epitomizes this meme.

Meanwhile, a moribund John Marshall got up from his deathbed on July 4th, inexplicably lucid, and wrote his own epitaph. He died two days later. (Source: Without Precedent by Joel Richard Paul.)

No, I’m not going to come on. They are insurgents; that’s a good thing; I don’t believe NBC News is using that accurate descriptor to editorialize; and if they are: good, fucking let them. If they want to make the DSA candidates look like they’re bringing radical change against the party by force: good, fucking let them. People are clearly sick and fucking tired of the “well it’s this or fascism I guess” wing of the Democratic Party.

I mean that’s literally what they’re doing, though: they’re opposing the “moderate” authority that controls the party. They literally are insurgents in their own party.

How is it burying the lede when anyone with basic reading comprehension knows that’s what the headline’s obviously suggesting? Like sorry your reading comprehension is apparently trash, but that doesn’t mean GamesRadar did something wrong.

It’s not even the style on its own*; it’s that you wrote a frankly bloviating short essay about an obvious concept that can be summarized as “most people who watch the weather don’t know what a public key is or how to use one”. I’m disgustingly long-winded, and even I wouldn’t expend that much effort. The style is what escalates that from “padding a high school essay” to “Oh, yup, a GPT wrote this.”

* “It’s not X, it’s Y” yeah, yeah, I know.

Dude, I’m sorry for saying this (because I get this a lot for my often overly formal writing, and I get it’s ironic on this post), but…

Your writing reads like it’s LLM-generated. Like, really heavily reads like an LLM wrote it. Long scrawls for pretty simple concepts, I don’t know how to describe why the cadence feels LLM-y other than “vibes”, flawless grammar, needless lists of nouns and adjectives, “it’s not X; it’s Y”, and this weird fucking lifeless demeanor that feels like it has no voice.

… I guess as opposed to the Elon kind of African American?
