Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful you’ll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post — there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

lol, no, but this was good post
some inane fucking thing from bloomberg or NYT or someone’s Bad Visualisations Department. it’s at least 35 points of psychic damage
10 centibasilisk simtime units in old money
I hate how realistic the notion of enduring psychic damage as currency is, especially with the guy’s attitude towards crypto.
ikr i’ve already seen it too
it’s really fucking dumb because trump got 2 million less votes than in 2020. really great map for learning the wrongest possible lesson from this election.
If we’re gonna do the arrows thing we should at least use a meaningful 2D plane for the vector. Let the X-axis represent the left/right shift but use the Y-axis to represent overall turnout in each district.
(e: damn lemmy for posting to the wrong chain)
