Pairing well with "what the fuck is wrong with you?" and "Just shut the fuck up already"

That's a good one

Hmmmm. Here I'll just paste it in for you: "What the fuck are you doing?"

Did @sheaserrano.bsky.social help you edit this piece?

Thanks Bill, appreciate you giving it the time it deserves.

Love it!

I know you're busy but you've got some time off tour so hopefully you can make a little time for it

Well thought out, and fantastically argued, really cuts to the core of the issue. 🥲

I really appreciate your nuanced point of view on the matter. By the end, you’d convinced me.

TLDR.

Nailed it.

As I was waiting for it to load, I thought "I hope it just says 'Eat shit and die.'" Close enough, man. Nice job.

Taking it in pieces, like a Charles Dickens serialized novel

thanks for clearing your schedule, I know it asked a lot of the reader!

I specifically loaded this up after I was done thinking about other things because of Dan and then you adding a bit more legitimacy. I hope you’re both happy with yourselves. 😂

Im so good at curating who i follow that Ive NEVER seen anything so insufferable. About a month ago I went just to check (Good) Ukraine war news. I found disgusting pro 🇷🇺 incels jerking off to war gore porn. Horrifying snuff film is "free speech" so u got hundreds of creeps cheering it on.

Sure thing numbers name

Sometimes you need Chotiner, sometimes you need Sinker.

Some really important stuff in there to sit with. Worth taking the time.

It's kinda complicated to sum up tbh

I think you’ve dealt with all the various permutations and arguments very thoroughly.

i assume they're getting paid (somehow) for such posts

Took you a while to get to the point but when you did — bingo.

Here's my short letter: "Bye"

sorry about that, here's a link to the full piece: dansinker.com/posts/2026-1...

I beg you. My little daughter is sick and needs medical care. Her photos and story are in my pinned post. Please share my campaign.

I'd listen to the podcast version of this

He makes some good points folks!

Didn't read the entire thing. But you made a strong point in the first sentence.

Best 9 hours I spent online today.

It's a lot to wrestle with, appreciate you doing so!

I think that's a smart approach.

heh, nice.

I read Gruber’s post this morning. Very disappointing.

Okay, but surely MY reason is good enough that this post doesn't apply to me

;TSDR (too short, did read)

I saw the punchline coming and it was still funny lol

Had grok summarize this for me and I agree with most of the points it told me you made

.

the core question you bring up really does need to be answered

for now

@grok can you summarize this for me please?

Says everything necessary to say!

wise words

Wow thanks that's exactly what I was going for

Hawkins cheezies for me, but love that you know this! 🇨🇦

That’s going to be quite a big piece for these folks to bite off, chew, and swallow. And quite a bolus to pass through the gut and eke out any meaning. And a helluva big chunk of stool to pass through their sphincters. Not to mention the trouble they’ll have getting it to flush.

I would have shortened it to "Fuck you, bye" but yours is fine too

So those 6 words IS the blog? Or is there more??

I appreciate the time and thoughtfulness. Well done. A dying art.

just confirmed my email because i thought there was more to read that was behind a sign-up wall. got my ass.

You said it all Dan

This additional piece of context is the nudge I needed to click on that link, just for a look see.

Furthermore! (Repeat.)

Oh sorry I missed the sarcasm about it being a lengthy post.

Haven’t clicked the link yet, but my guess is that it might actually be very much to the point and exactly as long as needed to make that point. 😁

This has the depth and the eloquence the topic so richly deserves. Thank you for asking the question.

It's nice to see someone take the time to really delve into the important questions of this issue. All the relevant nuance is addressed appropriately.

Incredibly thought out and captivating. You had me hanging on every word

Finally a blog worth finishing

I just feel like sometimes an issue is complicated enough that it gets the length it deserves.

Appreciate you shifting things around to give it the space it demanded

Good God, Dan, it's not time for some game theory.

Let em. I prefer it here - all the nice people are here!

Had to read it five times to get it.

Spent way too much time trying to find the “missing” content. And I signed up for your newsletter.

Comprehensive, like it.

tldr; fuck

I love footnotes as much as the next DFW reader and this piece really reminds me of him

If this is inspired by that Daring Fireball guy, he's always been an ass in so many ways. This is just the latest example.

ah man, almost nobody reads that stuff, so appreciate you going the extra mile

No lies told.

I had to sound out some of the longer words but I got there 😀👍

TL;dr. I assume your reasoning is sound.

I want to interact more with the #brands

Oh. Me stupid.

Actually it might be a good idea. With Russian traffic diminished by 49% as a result of Ukraine's destruction of Yandex data centres, and the consequent inability of Russian bots to affect the midterms, it might be a very good idea.

tl;dr

Tl dr;

((Not specifically referring to punk music, which is not really my thing. Due respect.))

I know I know but 🙏 for sticking with it

when i left twitter, i told her it was me not her. and i’m not the kind of guy to make the same mistake a 4th time

For me it was the clarity of the question in both beginning and ending. No notes.

Excellent job all around.

tl;dr

computer give this guy a waterbed (paid off) for his Herculean efforts in bringing awareness to the layers surrounding this controversial topic

I live for the day when tax law is this clear and concise. Well done.

They want that one word in your letter, pointedly directed at them daily so they can feel… accomplished lol

I’m glad I took the time needed to read, contemplate, and digest the nuanced essay therein.
