Another meandering manifesto from Zach hoping that trans women would stop existing ~~so that we stop tempting him with the prospect of actually maybe being happy for once~~.

To clear this up once and for all 'she' is a very solid category with a fixed and unchanging logical definition which can be derived via straightforward Bayesian reasoning and should only be used to refer to the following and anyone who disagrees HATES MATH:

  1. Boats
  2. Cars
  3. A swedish chiptune artist (obligatory music link)
  4. She-Slimes from the dragon quest series of videogames (fun fact: male She-slimes have the ability to undergo slimification and form a King she-slime when eight gather together!)
  5. Ladies (a lady is of course a title that can be used by anyone who kneads bread, per etymology online)

There was a twitter or bsky post talking about how lords comes from 'person who guards the bread' and ladies from 'person who kneads the bread'. let me see if I can find it.

e: twitter sadly

Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]
