Want to wade into the snowy surf of the abyss? 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.

(December's finally arrived, and the run-up to Christmas has begun. Credit and/or blame to David Gerard for starting this.)

From Lila Byock:

A 4th grader was assigned to design a book cover for Pippi Longstocking using Adobe for Education.

The result is, in technical terms, four pictures of a schoolgirl waifu in fetishwear.

I try to avoid having to even see the outputs of these fucking systems, but you just made me realize that there's going to be more than a few of them that will "leak" (read: preferentially deliver, by way of training focus) the kinks of its particular owner. I mean it's already happening for the textual replies on twitter, soothing felon's ever so bruised ego. the chance of it not Shipping beyond that is pretty damn zero :|

god I hate all of this

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.
