I too, carry sarcasm like house keys.

Which is to say I left it at home.

I accidentally locked myself out of sarcasm.

you know how mathematicians have the journal of recreational mathematics, right? where they publish stuff like, ‘oh i found this cool property of this one seemingly boring number’, or, ‘this is literally nonsense but it sounds ~scientific~’ and it’s all great fun to read?

well

behold, the journal of recreational linguistics

with such delightful papers as ‘tennis puns’, ‘animals in different languages’, and ‘gifts from a homonymous benefactor’

excuse me while i go read all 50 volumes in one sitting

This deep into his disaster of a time running Twitter and people are still reporting "Elon Musk said he'd give Wikipedia a billion dollars to change their name to DICKipedia xDDDDD" as a wacky story, Which first of all implies the sad possibility that there are people who still find his "let that sink in" shtick funny, but his questioning of Wikipedia is uh. Actually p. sinister

Like, it's easy to go "haha, he doesn't know about hosting costs!" But he. Clearly does know that hosting one of the world's top ten most visited websites costs a lot of money. He wants to sow doubt and conspiracies, and it's working, judging by his replies

Also, he's a rich guy who loves spreading misinformation, mad that Wikipedia doesn't allow it. He also is baffled by the idea he can't buy it, that it's not trying to make money

He doesn't even have any specific criticisms of Wikipedia. Jimmy Wales called him out for removing verification with very specific criticisms, and he just responded "please fix Wokipedia". Ladies and gentlemen...got 'em!!!!!1!

This… this can’t be real. Somebody tell me I’m getting Goncharoved

I love opening up this website first thing like the morning paper and immediately seeing multiple posts like "how to get rid of the evil clown on the dashboard". like oh is this what we're doing today
