PS Cavanaugh @pscavanaugh.com · 29/09/2026I really don’t think this angle is working for the AI dudes, but too many of them have drunk the Rationalist Kool-Aid. They can’t help themselves.

PS Cavanaugh @pscavanaugh.com · 26/09/2026I think things would be better if instead of displacing anger at the bad dad/husband/whatever in our lives and projecting those qualities onto internet strangers, we confronted the bad people in our lives directly and left the strangers, who we know nothing about, alone. 043
