edit: for posterity, this was satire but i’m comfortable recognizing it wasn’t opaque enough hence the poor reception. we’ll get em next time.

for those still refusing to get it: voting is harm reduction, see my other recent posts.

    Unfortunately I can hear these arguments non-ironically with only very small changes in the wording.

      satire is woven from the same thread that composes reality 😔

          There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.

          There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

              PugJesus wants a re-roll on reality, and this is the only reliable way to do so. At least as far as I’m aware.

                  Part of me wants to create a user named Hypnotoad for the express purpose of replying to this exchange and offering his services. But it’s coming up on 4am and I’m expected to be a productive member of society in a few hours.

    i posted a meme on 196 the other day asking people to please go out and vote and promptly got 55 replies from people who unironically believed this. a solid 50% of them admitted to not reading the post i wrote.
