I guess it'll be evergreen, because we're never going to see court reform anyway

I'm not sure that the thesis holds. The precise mechanism for LLMs might be more recent, but the idea of artificial intelligence has been around since at least 1873 when Butler's Erewhon first got published, so you can't argue that LLMs are diagnostic of Silicon Valley's current mindrot

I'm surprisingly of the same mind.

It does seem like she could benefit by texting her friend and saying, I love you and when I get a little better, I'll call you. I still want you in my life

I will say, I have a lot of respect for Moira and her perspectives on gender. I don't think of her as a pick me. I do think, as anyone raised Catholic, and any good public intellectual with a modicum of self awareness would likely cop to at least a little self loathing, which I find relatable lol.

I enjoyed the episode!

I did think, the question of recreating the center right is nil because they still exist. It's just that they've now coalesced in the Democratic and Labor party establishment.

Sadly, unless you're saying anyone who is willfully ignorant of sex pest behavior or people who make knowing accomodations of sex pests should be considered a sex pest as well, almost all sex pests have allies

The initial impression of most readers is almost diametrically opposed to the real argument she was making
