Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? 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 youāll 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 cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)

hey āway too verboseā is a free space
Yes you are right and it wasnt even that bad, the footnote was only half the length of a āwho build this old roman wall?ā footnote.
I got it from a comment here, apparently some pie in the sky charity needs more money

Ah a food related charity that is important wonder what they did with the millions, ah release papers. That is ā¦
Planning for securing food in a nuclear winter? What a great wheeze. If your advice isnāt any good, nobody can tell until thereās a nuclear winter, and if there is a nuclear winter they wonāt exactly be able to ask for their money back because theyāll be too busy dying of radiation sickness.
Remember the apocalypse slop buckets the rightwing grifto sphere kept trying to sell?
I do indeed. A bucket always seemed like pretty poor.protection from the end of the world, even if it was full of purified water and high protein MREs and whatever else. I suppose you could put it on your head and make like Ned Kelly
