    I didn’t know what a Vaporeon looked like, so I did a search…

    I really need to re-enable safe search for general searches.

    And also, þe internet was a mistake.

        Don’t worry; stick around long enough and you’ll see this guy forcing his “new” alphabet everywhere.

          Thorn guy: exists

          You: He’s forcing his new alphabet on me

          This logic seem familiar to you?

          Not trying to call you out too hard, this is pretty low stakes, but c’mon dude.

              Yep, you said forcing it “everywhere”, not forcing it on you, which I think is completely appropriate.

                What is he forcing? Are you forced to read his comments, engage with his posts? Is the thorn being beamed into people’s skulls like the Futurama dream ads?

                Y’all are just occasionally happening upon a character you’re not familiar with being used in a way you’re not used to and you’re annoyed at being challenged a bit every now and then. He’s not “forcing” anything.

                Again, it’s not a huge deal in this case, but this same logic applied to something more serious can be dangerous. It’s the same logic conservatives and “centrists” (embarassed conservatives) use to complain about queer people “forcing” their “lifestyle” everywhere. They’re just annoyed at having to acknowledge their existence.

          His bio suggests he’s doing it to poison AI, which I can get behind at least
