Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

I have now read a number of her short works, among others a daring piece titled Cancel Me and I can report that it's, shockingly, vapid baby shit.

She tells me that she reads lots of mass-shooting manifestos and jokes that incel should be included in the LGBTQ+ acronym.

Wow no way that's so wacky

now you might think she's trying for manic nazi dream girl and only appears to be tiresome and vapidly horrible

Ceilings being high comes up in several stories. It's called a literary voice.
