intellectual titans over on twitter. just, wow. "this guy is obviously wrong for reasons I won't explain. If anyone else wants to watch the video and tell me what he said let me know."

jesse had a lot to say about this

and by a lot i mean this is the best criticism he could muster. at worst, a minor definitional mistake.

i take it that someone who talked so much with guyatt himself might have some perspective though. just a thought.

Just, make sure you cancel that subscription basically immediately so you don't risk giving that dude money.

...mean you just assume that there are no closeted older people or that they're better served that way or that staying closeted for long periods of time has no effect on coming out) or if he actually tries a novel tack. I'd do it, but they're not letting me free trial then hop off anymore.

...it. If anyone keeps tabs on him or wants to immediately burn a 7 day free trial and sneak a peek I'm dying to know if he just rolls out the greatest hits like the shitty littman defenses and "why don't older people transition as much" (just because they didn't transition doesn't mean...

not that i would ever, EVER ask anyone to take the dive of subscribing to jesse's substack, but right before the paywall cutoff on the "director's cut" of this article he starts to explicitly defend the contagion hypothesis after years of transparently advocating for it but not being loud about...

...he supported this. "I don't support it, but it certainly explains a lot and we can't rule it out! How dare you misrepresent my opinion."

his version on substack starts out with him saying that the economist didn't allow him to excessively editorialize about some stuff, and he ends right before the paywall by saying that the obvious explanation for this is social contagion.

mind you, he used to get pretty indignant if you thought...

just found out they have a brainiac compilation on the adult swim youtube channel because they know how awesome he is

Arkham Knight really puts John Carmack’s "Story in a game is like a story in a porn movie. It's expected to be there, but it's not that important," quote to the test.

what wrong with vodka

...he IMMEDIATELY flies off the handle. He's so ridiculously thin-skinned that the barest, most obvious assessment of his fixation combined with playground-level insults make him angrier than anything Bruce ever did. He can't take a joke, he can't deal with a single heckler. He IS pathetic.

i love how half the time Joker is barely even talking to Terry. Most of his dialogue is either dismissing him, insulting him compared to Bruce, or just talking past him because he knows Bruce can hear him.

And then when Terry completely flips the script on him by pointing out how obsessed he is...

while i think death is my least favorite part of the saga overall, there's some legit impressive theming in how doomsday parallels and contrasts with Clark and just how desperate the fight actually feels

basically none of which is in its unfortunately most famous adaptation.

is this like, blaming claremont for byrne or

as someone whose read a lot of claremont x-men

huh?
