You know the theory that Taylor Swift is gay and is sending secret encoded messages to her fans so that theylll realize the truth? Confirmity Gate is that but for Stranger Things, with the theory that the finale of Stranger Things wasn’t the real finale at all but an illusion created by the show’s villain Vecna and a secret final episode, showing what had really happened, would be released yesterday.

No secret episode was released because the conspiracy theory was as insane as Taylor Seift really being gay and hiding secret encoded messages in her songs and interviews and whatnot.

Sounds like a new generation learning that sometimes an ongoing popular tv series utterly fumbles the ending and there's nothing you can do about it

Servant: Your highness, a party of adventurers has answered your call for help.

King: Excellent. What are they like?

Servant: One of them is a dragon-lady.

King: Interesting. Those are rare around these parts.

Servant: Another is a goblin paladin.

King: Not a role you usually see goblins in.

Servant: A third is a purple-skinned tiefling.

King: I didn't even know they come in that color.

Servant: The last one is a sapient gelatinous cube.

King: What. How did these four even meet?

Servant: They met in a tavern two hours ago, apparently.

[charlesoberonn]

Queen: My love, please return to bed.

King: *pacing* Why would a gelatinous cube come to a tavern? Can it even get drunk? How did it fit through the doors?

if i ever become a showrunner i will actually do the fake series finalle followed by the true ending where the popular gay ship is confirmed just so i can forever poison fandom with the idea that it can happen for real and then they will truly never let that hope go for all other subsequent shows they watch henceforth. just for the sake of making the world a worse place

The fucking romantic terrorism.

[brazenautomaton]

If I was a showrunner i would tell everyone not to worry because I have the ending for the series already written down in the notebook, so they can rest assured the mysteries all have answers

And I would take that notebook with me everywhere so nobody could spoil it, as that would be the most valuable thing the fandom could obtain

And the only thing written inside would be "NICE TRY, ASSHOLE"

If anyone needs further evidence that you can't self-optimize your way out of or prevent disability: apparently Bryan Johnson, who spends millions on his health, has developed an incurable automimmune disease:

Bryan Johnson Spent Tens of Millions Trying Not to Die, Gets Diagnosed With Incurable Disease

Immortality obsessed tech investor Bryan Johnson reveals he was recently diagnosed with an incurable disease.

Last week, the longevity-obsessed tech investor revealed that he had been diagnosed with an incurable autoimmune disease in which his “stomach is eating itself.” But, true to his mission, Johnson believes he can biohack his way out of this gut-punch, too. “I’m going to try and solve it,” he wrote on X. “Will share all.” The disease Johnson says he was diagnosed with is autoimmune gastritis, a condition in which the immune system’s antibodies go rogue and start attacking stomach cells. It often manifests without noticeable symptoms, and can lead to cancer.

[shamebats]

This is what internalized ableism does to people. You spend all your life believing that you can't become disabled because you spend so much money & time on your health, trying every possible treatment, supplement, product you can get your hands on — and in the end, the stress from living like that is likely to actually contribute to you developing a disabling illness, and it will have all been for worse than nothing.

[str-ngeloop]

I don't think we should be taking this as a sign we shouldn't be trying to prevent illness. That doesn't seem reasonable to me. clown on bryan johnson all you want, he's rich. but you're gonna be hard pressed to convince me this is some sort of cosmic justice. preventing suffering = good

[zoobus]

I've been really confused by the response to this. By his own admission, it seems like he's been chronically ill his entire life? The article states he was diagnosed with hypothyroidism at 21, which automatically put him at a higher risk of autoimmune diseases, possibly already having one depending on what kind of hypothyroidism it is. He even says

“​​This is a diagnosis of a condition that started in my body over 20 years ago. Had I not taken care of my body during the past few years, it would be a lot worse,” he wrote in response to one critic. “Health issues will always pop up, no matter how healthy one is.”

[centrally-unplanned]

"Guy who spends his fortune on medical research to try to cure diseases & promote longevity gets dunked on for having a disease and needing medical assistance" just incredible the hoops people jump through to justify hating a target.

The actual valid criticisms of Johnson is that he hasn't spent his money all that well; this "hypermicro" approach to a macro, structural problem in human biology probably isn't gonna work. But we don't know what is gonna work before it does - props to him for trying, and we would be way better off if the average rich person spent their money on this than the median flashy consumer goods or ruthlessly ineffective nonprofit cause that is much more typical for the group.

[iteratedextras]

I'm hoping he beats the incurable stomach thing since that probably winds up making it "curable for $5,000" in 10 years, which is a win for everyone else who has it.

LMAO the Parasite in Chief in his idiot hat is back with his nonsense

hey dipshit @qin-shi-huang-di why the fuck is confucianism AND legalism both on your dni??? first of all, aren't they inherently contradictory philosophies? legalists believe all people are inherently evil and self-serving, so punitive justice is the only thing keeping society in order, but confucians believe all people are born good and the leader should set a benevolent example with minimal interference so the people "bend like grass before the wind" so like, what? do you just advocate the government does NOTHING and let things run their natural course? WELL THAT WOULD MAKE YOU A FUCKING DAOIST. WHICH IS ALSO ON THE DNI.

BY THE WAY DIDN'T YOU ADOPT LEGALISM AS THE STATE PHILOSOPHY??? you're literally following @therealhanfeizi make it make sense

[qin-shi-huang-di]

his royal highness will not waste his time bandying words with a failed assassin. if you spent less time playing with your sword all day, you'd know that @therealhanfeizi has been CANCELED for his PROBLEMATIC behavior. you can read @mod-li-si's call out post here

[qin-shi-huang-di]

actually on second thought i think i might have overacted a bit. tbh i didn't even read the whole thing, i mainly thought his taste in media was cringe. @mod-li-si go reinstate @therealhanfeizi's acccount

[qin-shi-huang-di]

uh oh

[qin-shi-huang-di]

wow, the people on this site are so toxic! i can't believe how everyone unfairly DOGPILED my best friend han feizi. you peons should all be ashamed of yourself! we've lost the brightest mind in the warring states thanks to you!

PSA

If you work any kind of industrial job, where there's lots of dust in the workplace that settles on horizontal objects and doesn't get cleaned up (beams, tops of pipes, tops of machines above eye level, even inside a drop ceiling, etc) and it's something even vaguely able to burn (sugar, flour, metal dust, plastic dust, etc)...

Run and call OSHA. Your workplace may be a giant bomb. This is one of the few things that still kills a dozen people in a single industrial accident in first-world countries.

Man, the whole conquest of advertising by vibes is so frustrating and excessive it really is kinda notable when you see an advertisement that just, like, describes with some detail and accuracy what the product is and why you should care.

As a teenager (M15) my grandmother (F71) and I attended a speech by the Prime Minister (M55). Just as it started, terrorists (M21, M28, F22) opened fire (M14) but they were quickly gunned down (MP5k) by the Prime Ministers bodyguard (M38). On the way home (M1) we were silent. The memory still makes me wake up at night (1AM) feeling too hot (100F). I need to change because I sweat all through my pajamas (1XS).
