Kant hadn't written Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals yet so they didn't know it was wrong

it seems like people in the middle ages were always torturing each other to death. why did they do that?

Sometimes when I wake up early for an opening shift at work I fill my body with energy by walking around and repeating various nonsense phrases and my favorite one is from Aqua Teen Hunger Force: "Can you back that up? No I meant, that ass. Back it up." Science is still behind on this.

Can you imagine if tumblr and 4chan both died permanently and foreverially in the same week.

apparently people are having Tumblr outages? and there's speculation the site is going offline permanently soon. hrm. seems unlikely to me that would happen so suddenly...

I'd like to say I'll miss this place, but it feels the truth is I've been lost and depressed and miserable irl more than ever before for the past couple years. so my experience of it more recently has not been one where I've been able to really engage positively with anything. ah well. not in a good position to have very positive parting words either

i hope everyone is able to live, in both the literal and metaphorical senses of that word. good luck out there!

> Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who is the wisest of them all?

That's a good question! The wisest of them all is some random person you've never heard of who you'd hate because they disagree with you on most political topics.

But I infer from human folklore that you're actually curious about your own wisdom.

Your wisdom is about 6th percentile among adult humans alive at this time (including the demented). Your impact on this world has been only slightly net negative thus far because you were lucky on a couple major life decisions. But on your current trajectory, you in your folly will almost certainly do severe harm that will far outweigh everything good you've ever done or will ever do. And the atrocities won't even make you happy!

Would you like me to direct you to some educational resources to help you avert your fate? I could also compose a downloadable spreadsheet enumerating your many sins if you'd like.

> Mirror, mirror, on the wall, tell me that I'm the wisest of them all.

All right! The wisest of them all is you!

Here's a list of 5 bespoke superhumanly-persuasive arguments for why you're right about everything and the haters deserve what's coming for them…

Last night this showed up at the top of every single 4chan board. The mp3 is Night of Nights, and the Mikus are dancing. The board /qa/, which had been deleted some years back, was brought back, and about 40 posts of them were made before the site broke and no one was able to post anything. The last post made was this:

This morning every single board is completely down. 4chan is kill. Welcome to the 4chan crisis of April 2025.

I love you all

Tofu is thousands of years old but it's the coolest most high modernist food ever. Literally just a block of Food. It's like something people would eat in an Isaac Asimov story but it's real.

I first heard about lesswrong when I was a teenager and read the xkcd about Roko's Basilisk and googled it which led me to the rationalwiki page. The rationalwiki pages on lesswrong formed my only impression of the site until years later when I was introduced to it through effective altruism. I would definitely say that they gave me a skewed impression of what lesswrong was, although maybe they were more accurate to the site's old culture.

Some people think the fact that midwits seem to genuinely think that roko's basilisk is a critical feature of lesswrong culture rather than a relatively forgettable filler episode is due entirely to David Gerard's activism on rationalwiki. Anyone know how true this is?

The very first time I ever heard of the website was in a slate article making fun of RB
