Godspeed You! Woke Moralists

no need, already way ahead of you

"Finally, money, but with no government!" says the guy who is about to find out what wildcat banks were like back before the FDIC

I'm kinda negative on "slop" as a suffix but I do love "founder" being the key to it. Maybe "founder signaling", it feels meaner and more obviously fraudulent and performed.

We need a name for this, something like vice-signalling, where people, usually in or around tech or finance, claim to do some quirky bullshit that patently doesn't work just so they can post about it to build their personal brand.

They fired the experts because they were woke and gay and disloyal and now they're stuck in a war they can't get out of wondering why no one told them this would happen. Surprised pikachu.

"YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE WHIPLASH!!!"

For being futurists these guys sure don't seem to grasp that someone might develop contingency plans and structures so that "decapitation strikes" don't work, given that Art of War was written 1500 years ago modern leadership sure has a head start

Tech guys who only read self help books struggling to understand Shii'ism and glorious martyrdom

Earlier tonight my TV failed to display 30 Rock in a way that I felt put me in Alec Baldwin’s headspace for the first time

figuratively *and* literally

huh!

Remember "babies in ovens, I saw it myself" and then he just left and the WH had to scramble to pretend what he said made any sense?

you literally don't get Trump II and this war without Biden.

This is what the Biden administration did with Israel's genocide of Gaza. Kept claiming to not know enough the situation. To be investigating, evaluating. But somehow never quite having enough info to determine a genocide was happening.

Leaned forward as in, "no. they're not actually" and then they do it?

this should ideally be the Democrat's sword leading the battle

oooh this sounds right up my alley for absolute mystifying trash

They are a small little publisher getting started by finding talent who they can work with, you should be nicer to them. It's not like they're an established decades long juggernaut from the NES.

I've got GREAT news

The Bride might be a fun irony watch if it wasn't painfully overwritten and Gen X "empowering feminist retelling", which is what's keeping me from getting high as shit and going to the theater

To chase high returns for like three quarters before shamefully trudging back to video games and just hiring outside talent because they fired everyone else.

Niche online nazi talking points a decade ago have become mainstream republican sound bites. It's fucking horrifying.

Ayup. The only exception to this rule is MGSV, which is an incredible game that fixes all the problems of 4, but got booted out the door because Konami was running away from video games and going hard on pachinko. They essentially locked Kojima out of the office so he'd stop spending money.

Definitely if you're a writer, the best career move you can do is discourage people from reading

I love to gatekeep people from sports by telling them they should enjoy the game and playing it.

Or best.

Absolutely a phrase I recall as well. The implication of not paying attention in the slightest is deeply hilarious.
