Basically a tagline for Awful dot Systems except honestly the despair isn't that much more worse or especially less worse elsewhere so I might as well have the peer support.

Investigating a user for a sus body shaming post, banning them for a programming drama post. Truly a self at awful dot systems moment. Never change (meaning this sincerely, thanks for the good mod work).

My prediction begins with a confession, for I have sinned. Seven years ago a younger, more foolish me purchased a small sum of Bitcoin out of curiosity. I had forgotten about this until just recently, when I found an old notebook where I had recorded the keys to access the accursed asset. The news about the price peaking after the election made me decide to take at least some advantage out of the result, so I cashed out, earning a tidy profit, which I dutifully reported to the state revenue service.

My prediction for the rest of the year is that as a penance for my transgression, I will spend the ill-gotten gains from my destructive action to poison my body and mind with concoctions of ethanol.

What the hell do people think they're adding to the conversation with quips like this? We were talking about how social media personalities should be better role models. Should parents be good role models? Yes, but that's only relevant to the discussion, if you mean to imply it's not a problem that social media entertainers are bad ones, and that parents being good ones just solves any issues.

The name and face of the most subscribed man on YouTube keeps changing every few years but my perpetual dislike of him keeps being validated.

Complaining that people are just ripping off better known NFTs is pretty funny when the chain is named Ape of all things.

I should get in the habit of Googling "how to renew expiring fed mitm certificate" every few weeks for the microscopic chance the joke might some day pay off big time.

What mystery creator? The guy's name is right there in the paper: Satoshi Nakamoto. Isn't he the Pokémon guy or something?
