I remember that. Dude wasn’t coddled by some skittish wannabe journalist.

Jeff Goldblum’s Jurassic Park monologue feels appropriate here.

“You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could and before you even knew it you had it. You patented it and packaged it and slapped it on a plastic lunch box, and now your selling it!”

I wouldn’t say you “shamefully invested” time into finding sources for your arguments. I see it as educating yourself. Don’t do it for them; do it for you.

I have my own instance of this, and it’s become my only front end for YouTube content. The last political shooting (and subsequent firings of commenters of said shooting) made sure of that. I imported my subscriptions, scrubbed all my data, and haven’t looked back since.

I knew this was a shit timeline, but not “Street Trash IRL” bad.

Edit: Street Trash is a movie where a mysterious liquor starts “dissolving” the homeless when they drink it.
