Turned out it was totally fine; he chose two of the more solid submissions for the class to read over and critique, so it was flattering with a helpful dose of humility. :lol:

I am feeling much better this term; both about the 12-hour days and about my progress. The wise old neurophysiologist I wanted on my grad committee said yes, so that was really nice.

Three million people are mad enough to flood the streets. Twitter is full of alt accounts for government organizations getting gagged by the new administration. The NYC Counterterrorism people really liked our talk and want to do more stuff, same for the folks from the LA sheriff's department. I yelled at the DoD's chief engineer for being a colossal douche, and he apologized. D&D alignment chart references abounded, and I didn't have to explain the concept in detail to get folks on board. The mayor of Boston just told the administration to eat a dick.

Somebody help the world makes no sense.

Yep.  Funniest thing is, he outed himself because he couldn't resist taking a shot at me.

Here's a snippet:

QuoteDiscordianism has been hijacked. As much as the concept of the public domain of intellectual properties is worthy of support, this is one of the rare occasions in which the lack of formal control has resulted in a systematic perversion of the original idea. Discordianism was left to the public domain for a reason: if you ever suspect that anyone is dictating what Discordianism is, they are the enemy.

This has been happening for quite some time.

If you have your own idea of Discordianism and you start preaching it to other "Discordians", you will be accused of being a "Really Real Discordian". The "Really Real Discordian" accusation is a defense against any attacks towards the brand of Discordianism that has been co-opted. If someone accuses you of being a Really Real Discordian, it probably means you're onto something interesting that they don't want to hear. Or you're a complete ass. It's one of the two.

I love the self-editing -- It's not about having a new idea, it's that they have the Really Real True Idea, and we're DOING IT WRONG.

In related news, I just found out that rant got him banned, as it was obviously aimed at me after the admins told both of us to STFU.

That's hilarious, especially if he thought Scrubgenius was going to be more lenient with his bullshit than we were.
