[01:24:37] <AzumaHazuki> boy, I have *really* annoyed someone. I haven't had <40 karma since the beginning
[01:24:45] <AzumaHazuki> someone appears to be blanket troll-modding me, LOL

[02:26:21] <chromas> Is it time to fork Stack Exchange?
[02:27:08] <AzumaHazuki> how come? was there a stack overflow?
[02:27:35] <chromas> https://www.theregister.co.uk
[02:27:36] <upstart> ^ 03The mod firing squad: Stack Exchange embroiled in 'he said, she said, they said' row
[02:29:09] <chromas> https://meta.stackexchange.com
[02:29:10] <upstart> ^ 03An Update to our Community and an Apology
[02:31:20] <AzumaHazuki> what the actual fuck
[02:31:35] <AzumaHazuki> so now using an explicitly genderless pronoun is "misgendering?"
[02:32:13] <chromas> I see that, even though you haven't misgenedered anyone, you're questioning that idea. You're fired
[02:32:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> told you it was about control not caring
[02:32:39] <AzumaHazuki> there's just four: he/him for male-identified, she/her for female-identified, they/them for unknown/other, and ze/ze for Kirisame Marisa. that should solve it.
[02:33:03] <AzumaHazuki> </nerrrrrrrrd>
[02:33:33] <chromas> Parse error: unexpected closing tag
[02:34:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> you're not allowed unknown anymore. you have to ask first. and then check mid-sentence to make sure it hasn't changed.
[02:35:08] <AzumaHazuki> this sounds to me like some trolls have taken over, and as usual, the people this was all intended to help protect are going to suffer for it
[02:35:23] <AzumaHazuki> ...while idiots like you will of course blame them rather than the bad-faith and trolling assholes :v
[02:35:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> seriously, they fired the mod for wanting to use non-gendered workarounds. you must think and say what they want or doom be upon you.
[02:35:40] <AzumaHazuki> something something, wharrrgarbl, muh freeze peech
[02:36:08] <chromas> huehuehue inalienable rights
[02:36:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> nope, not trolls. hard left really, genuinely is every bit that fucking insane.
[02:36:33] <chromas> but it seems like they didn't actually tell her why they were firing her
[02:37:16] <chromas> I wonder if SE's site software is open source. I've seen other sites that look like theirs
[02:37:29] * TheMightyBuzzard shurgs
[02:37:30] <chromas> Soylentsexchange
[02:37:34] <AzumaHazuki> jeez, it's almost like authoritarian assholes are authoritarian assholes wherever they fall on the economic spectrum... *thinking emoji
[02:37:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> ed zackery
[02:38:06] <AzumaHazuki> now if only every single stupid trolling dipshit would stop conflating economic left/right with the social version that would be real fuckin' neato
[02:38:12] <Bytram> If I am not mistaken they have loads of different SE's based on different topics or subjects
[02:38:19] <AzumaHazuki> `.`
[02:39:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> they largely do coincide because of herd mentality
[02:39:08] * Bytram has had too many long and full days
[02:39:33] <Bytram> heading to bed at a semi-reasonable hour tonight in hopes I can catch up somewhat on my sleep.
[02:39:41] <chromas> I think I've seen at least one Q&A scraping site use their format
[02:39:41] <Bytram> Have a great night everyone!
[02:39:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> s'why i prefer arguing issues
[02:39:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> ~gnight Bytram
[02:39:56] * exec skeptically passes a pair of EF's extensions to Bytram
[02:40:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> you lose
[02:40:08] <Bytram> ~gnight TheMightyBuzzard
[02:40:09] * exec gaily derives a LUKS volume of knowledges from TheMightyBuzzard
[02:40:14] <chromas> Should change it to used extensions
[02:40:28] <AzumaHazuki> almost seems like extremism and unthinking dogmatic stupidity are bad for society and individuals both
[02:40:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> extremism is fine. unthinking anything isn't.
[02:41:13] <AzumaHazuki> "extremism is fine." wat.
[02:41:13] <chromas> X-TREME Centrism bois
[02:41:36] <chromas> I'm more gnutral than all you y'alls
[02:41:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> think about it. if you're not an unthinking extremist, you're not going to remain one long.
[02:41:56] <AzumaHazuki> no, when ideals start getting put above people we have that moral priority inversion bug i keep going on about...happens everywhere
[02:42:50] <chromas> Perhaps society is part of the Stack Exchange network. That explains why the employees ignore your requests
[02:43:58] * AzumaHazuki is going with the idea that most people are insane nearly all the time, we're all here on accident, and it'll be a friggin' miracle if we make it off this rock
[02:44:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> i don't want off this rock. all my stuff's here.
[02:44:20] <AzumaHazuki> i may, it seems, have prematurely depleted my lifetime allotment of fucks
[02:44:52] <chromas> Gotta leave this rock to go find another
[02:45:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> AzumaHazuki, life gets a lot easier when you start running short on them and have to weigh the merit of using one on a given situation.
[02:45:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, what if there ain't catfish on it?
[02:46:05] <chromas> Check it for bait
[02:48:02] <TheMightyBuzzard> #yt peaches presidents
[02:48:03] <MrPlow> https://www.youtube.com
[02:48:21] <AzumaHazuki> at this point i need to save the remaining ones for myself
[02:48:55] <TheMightyBuzzard> welcome to the beginning of your personal conservatism
[02:49:18] <AzumaHazuki> oh no, no no no. not happening
[02:49:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, it ain't a dirty word
[02:49:34] <chromas> Yes
[02:49:36] <chromas> Conserve your fucks
[02:49:41] <AzumaHazuki> "conservatism" isn't what you get by rationing your fucks. it's what you get when you disappear up your own ass
[02:49:48] <AzumaHazuki> all this means is i'm not doing any more charity
[02:49:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> just means "look, can we please not fuck things up any worse than they already are?"
[02:50:09] <AzumaHazuki> there is an unspoken and false assumption in there, you know
[02:50:12] <AzumaHazuki> maybe more than one
[02:50:41] <chromas> Is the assumption implied or inferred though?
[02:50:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> prolly but that's the foundation of conservatism. everyone picks it up as they age to some degree.
[02:51:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> personal conservatism, mind, not political.
[02:51:43] <AzumaHazuki> that's just managing your own resources, is all
[02:51:59] <chromas> But I want someone else to manage them for me
[02:52:01] <AzumaHazuki> i'm 31. not exactly young anymore. the spirit is willing but the knees go creak
[02:52:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> social as well as fiscal
[02:52:39] <AzumaHazuki> more to the point, the world is about to go so completely ratshit insane around me that just bare survival is going to take maybe more fucks than i have left
[02:52:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> you start to recognize stupid shit as stupid shit beforehand and stop wanting to do it just because it's shiny and new.
[02:53:07] <AzumaHazuki> i never had that "shiny and new" syndrome though
[02:53:21] <AzumaHazuki> a big complaint from adults and peers was basically "why don't you try new things?"
[02:54:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> meh, folks been saying that every generation since Trog whacked Grob on the head with a piece of firewood and invented the hot new club
[02:54:47] <AzumaHazuki> Trog and Grob don't have the potential to end (multicellular) life on the planet over a political pissing match
[02:55:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> if you're worried about that, you're about 40 years too late.
[02:55:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> right now ain't just less tense than during the cold war, it's boring as shit by comparison.
[02:55:56] <AzumaHazuki> not even worried at this point. i never had a nihilist phase; i've gone right from worry into absurdism. we're just here to learn, then comes the sorting
[02:56:28] <AzumaHazuki> and somehow i know i've learned what needed to be learned. this all feels like some idiot movie now, one whose ending i know. i'm looking forward to the end
[02:57:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> i liked the ending on One Night at McCools. very douglas adams.

[15:22:20] <AndyTheAbsurd> The green new deal is about having a breathable atmosphere 50 years from now.
[15:22:32] <AndyTheAbsurd> You like breathing, right? Or at least don't like NOT breathing?
