is this forum in the worst state it's ever been in?

[hmg]

yeh because this place is full of petit-bourgeois malcontents.

And the unemployable

 

[thirdform]

I'd say it's because their thing was generating concepts. They came up with the stuff so that it would keep generating things and being plugged into other things.

no that was Al-Khwarizmi ffs.

Third's going to use ChatGPT to write this future classic.

I think it's Third using ChatGPT again.

There's some sort of deep anxiety in his fixation on me, and others here, that I've never quite got to the bottom of.

you sound like Danny now.

 

[thirdform]

but then, all liberals sooner or later end up sounding like each other, so...

& of course I'm past hazing. I do feel that I've made a couple real efforts, the past months, trying to say something useful and interesting, but it always feels wasted, it doesn't get mirrored back, it doesn't go anywhere or build into anything greater, there's very little momentum and even less camaraderie. Perhaps the plague years united us.

the sus renaissance era has been glorious though ❤️

 

[sus]

Well that's kind. Version has even humored my James Cameron talk. Everyone is being very friendly and humoring me. I feel very weak. Like an infant who just screams and cries. I will try to be better.

@Clinamenic you only shitpost anymore. Its good shitposting but tell us your story. Why did you give up on Dissensus

 

[sus]

You can't tell me you havent given up. You once wrote manifestos.

 

[sus]

Ian is making a good show of pretending he hasn't given up. Posted a whole thread. Interesting concept. Zero words.

 

[sus]

The last time he wrote a blogpost was when I watched nightmare on elm street with him. That's how easy it is to inspire ian into great bouts of eloquence, robin williams style. You just have to say six halfsmart things about a bfilm. And dissensus hasnt inspired a post from him in a year. Where Have Those Days Gone.

I don't even know where to start with you third. Can we just talk like human beings for once? Can you tell me what you want from me, like concretely?

You have posted magniciently long cryptic texts. As a posting poet you are destined for some crazy desert oasis of a valhalla, where the mad hermits go and produce beautiful halfcoherent prophetic speech.

You still produce these illegible volumes but how? By way of a machine?

And even when you write them yourself. Are you really trying to connect, or have you given up too?

 

[sus]

It's okay if to quit the board but you have to give an accounting I think. That's my moral theory. None of this soft quitting. If we ever meant anything to you. Youve got to tell us why youre breaking up with us. That's just basic etiquette. Well I've given my account, it's probably wrong I'm most certainly very confused, but I've given it I've tried to say how this hotel booking disappointed me and why I'm giving it 2.5 stars.

Just seems like most of what interests me lately isn't of much interest to the board . Even my attitude toward things seems pretty divergent a lot of the time. Maybe some literature interests overlap, e.g. I'm finishing up Don Quixote vol 2, but aside from that its mostly stuff that the likes of @luka would chide as silly "adult" matters, or nerd stuff that would prompt responses like

What the fuck is wrong with you.

 

[Clinamenic]

I'm as active, writing-wise, as I ever have been, I just don't think most of it would interest folks here aside from you and maybe a couple others:
