Duncan @dqtbower.bsky.social · 14/01/2026When I was a kid, I had many of the Dilbert anthology books. They came with forwards that were written with a similar tone and cadence, and I enjoyed those too. I feel like it's a nicely frank, humorist style. To me it's kind of like that Justin Roiland discourse--sometimes bad people make us smile. 010
