I think it's a good sign for society that the most powerful LLM right now (Claude) is also the one with the strictest ethical guardrails. We talk a lot about late-stage capitalism, and things have gotten very bad, but there's still enough moral conscience among society that the need was felt to bend to it. We could've ended up with all four major AI companies having the same ethical carelessness as xAI/Grok.

people have this tendency to believe that fandom discourse exists because people in fandoms are Stupid Nerdy Losers, but in fact fandom discourse exists because anytime you get a group of more than 100 people together, they will start creating interpersonal bullshit. fandom is not special in this regard

There is sports discourse. There is yarn discourse. There is food discourse. There is academic discourse (dear sweet god is there academic discourse). If there are people out there collecting brass buttons specifically from 1921, they are going to have discourse about which buttons are trash and whether Person A cheated person B. To be human is to engage in pointless wankery sometimes.
