tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 03/10/2026i'm not sure that "reintegrating into society" and "maintaining a public-facing crowdfunded program advocating and fundraising for progressive causes" are equivalent in terms of things that ought to be available to everybody regardless of having committed rape etc 010
tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 02/10/2026jacob geller writing a statement acknowledging that he did in fact rape a sleeping woman and attaching the phrase "my continued drive to make myself and the world better" is extremely repulsive to me 070

tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 22/09/2026do you think tony gilroy knew that "Revanchsim exists in star wars but its named after a guy called Revan" when he decided to make a show about insurrectionary realpolitik where the main realpolitik guy is called Luthen Rael. do you think everybody in star wars starts talking about "Rael-politics" 823935

tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 25/08/2026yeah it's well-observed that human beings show more empathy towards dogs than towards other adult human beings. i think what goku naruto's post is expressing is - if we take a step back from our intuitions here, do things look a bit strange, ethically? www.sciencedaily.com/releases/201...sciencedaily.comPeople have more empathy for battered dogs than human adult, but not child, victimsPeople have more empathy for battered puppies and full grown dogs than they do for some humans — adults, but not children, finds new research. 110
tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 23/08/2026yes i hadn't realised he was silent on an issue as important as the genocide in palestine, that's disappointing. thanks both of you for informing me of this 110
tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 23/08/2026Gusev has spent years at this point repeatedly dunking on Murray, Sailer, Yarvin et al. he's wrong about free speech absolutism but when he says "i think we should defeat pseudoscientific racism in the marketplace of ideas" he's saying what he honestly believes 110
tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 23/08/2026that said i dont think cofnas getting fired/suspended because he made a bunch of racist posts demonstrating that he got his idea of how genetics works from assassins creed or possibly mass effect is the end of the world, academic freedom-wise 020
tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 23/08/2026followed sasha gusev a while ago specifically because i find his frequent in-depth rebuttals of racist pseudoscience interesting so i think that while its fair to disagree with him about the principle of the thing "this racist is only CLAIMING to be a marketplace of ideas guy" doesnt cut the mustard 121
tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 19/08/2026it always seemed to me that cooper's willingness to attribute patriarchal violence to evil ghosts is exactly the kind of character flaw that makes it so easy for him to get possessed by an evil ghost 020

tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 15/08/2026not ideal that the two positions on Arday appear to be "its fine/good that a washed up substack racist can lead a smear suicide campaign" and "oh so you journalists think it's 'funny' when a public figure lies about running a £5m supermarathon with a broken leg and cancer of the brain and testes???" 080

tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 29/07/2026the fact that making a SS2/Deus Ex/Thief ripoff with good, satisfying gameplay often involves some combination of "the player is a mediating factor between various squabbling factions" and "if you try hard enough you can solve all your problems nonlethally" kind of plants the ideological seeds...... 140
tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 21/07/2026at risk of Blueskying too hard, i think your comedy derives not just from the application of your logical skills, but also from an underlying warmth and humanism (even if you do subvert this a lot), which is too often missing. not sure how this factors into your maths papers, not really my area 010
tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 14/07/2026the rest can be recreated in the aggregate by listening to "joe rogan guests doing HILARIOUS native american impressions supercut" in your left headphone and "Two World Wars: a podcast history of the m1911" in your right earphone 120

tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 14/07/2026i think it's relevant to a particular concern fallout 1+2, "there's a racist idea that human civilisations start here and move in a straight line to there, but ACTUALLY 🧐🧐🧐 the line is very wobbly and its also kind of a snakes and ladders board" 110
tinytachyon @tinytachyon.bsky.social · 07/07/2026i think this is true for basically any case in which the guy who turned out to be a rapist had not previously said "if my house got broken into i would rape the intruder to assert dominance" 020
