Me, descendant of pogrom victims, just before clicking on this: "Despite the dunks, surely she didn't seriously, unironically, directly compare being called 'Eve Fartlow' on Twitter to the pogroms."The article: "Oh buddy, not just pogroms. Also lynching and waterboarding." pic.twitter.com/wBLD043j5T— Trevor (@trevorjtweets) May 26, 2021

it's a good dunk but in no way worth amplifying her
i mean, hooray 2.8K people are now aware of her when no one should be

anyone else still waiting for their cheque from chapo? can't seem to find mine.
they're aligned and / or unofficially associated with the chapotraphouse podcast, by the looks of it. in time, i wouldn't be surprised to find the chapotraphouse podcast hosts pay their followers for engaging in these attacks— enough ao6ix6ix.9ine9ine (WS), already (@21_7_b) May 27, 2021

Yeah Eve Fartlow is absolutely a person I'd never heard of outside of twitter and I resent the damn app for informing me.
― Daniel_Rf, Thursday, 27 May 2021 11:13 (two years ago) link

it’s not the first self-aggrandizing thing Fartlow has written or tweeted about, apparently
― mh, Thursday, 27 May 2021 13:05 (two years ago) link
there’s some “these music artists who are anti-israel wouldn’t have been as popular as they are if I hadn’t written about them” tweet that blew my mind in her feed! good stuff

Sure you can. In fact, people unavoidably do it all the time. It may not be a particularly robust estimate. But this is the whole basis of Bayesian thinking. https://t.co/4jMgty2z24— Nate Silver (@NateSilver538) May 27, 2021

something about being a pundit in the social media era, the simultaneous hit and boost your ego takes when a million people tell you to eat shit, fragile psyches arent equipped to handle it

It’s even more egregious when someone like Nate Silver assigns a percentage to something like this, because millions will believe it must be data-based instead of ass-based.— John Smith (@GOP_U) May 27, 2021

the e*e b*rl*w instagram, which I clicked on for reasons I will not delve into, is wacky. she uses it as a… platform for screenshots of her tweets, and to manually image-retweet things and comment on them off of twitter?
this is some kind of weird strategy I am unfamiliar with
― mh, Thursday, 27 May 2021 17:10 (two years ago) link
so is Nate Silver's position basically "I can't tell the difference between true things and false things, so I'll just say it's 50/50 but tilted in favor of the side that isn't currently yelling at me?" dude's got a bad case of Dilbertbrain

If life has taught me nothing else, it's that when there's an unusually long delay for your order at the coffee shop/restaurant/whatever, there probably was some snafu ("they forgot to put it in") and you're not being a jerk for politely inquiring about it.— Nate Silver (@NateSilver538) May 26, 2021

Chiles is cancelled I'm afraid. He had some shit-talking QC on his 5live show doing a hideously pro-cop account of the Hillsborough disaster and didn't once challenge him. twat.
