Amazing. I choked with laughter at the update.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Pex Lives!

Call it a hunch but I've always got the impression Ben might not be the sharpest tool in the box.

This my first time seeing him. Every time someone says Ben Shapiro I conjure up an image of Ben Stein.

Anytime the likes of Shapiro or Peterson crop up, I can never stop wondering is it some big grift with them or would they always score the perfect 10 on the Dunning-Kruger scale. Inclined to think it's edging more towards the latter.

Oh yeah, they fully reside up their own ass because it smells like violets. But they’re also drunk on the validation of others who confirm their own brilliance.

I read a little piece yesterday from a medical person (not sure whether they were a researcher or practitioner) who was surprised by the effect of the pandemic on their community. Some found social media good for getting out information to a wide group of people, some didn’t care for it because of all the misinformation. But what was surprising was how many got addicted to the feedback, so they posted more and more and pushed the ethical boundaries because of that, for better or worse, validation. As with so many things, when provoking a reaction is the aim, it becomes an escalating campaign to get that reaction.

That was something that definitely caught my attention during the pandemic, how suddenly this whole new world of attention and publicity was open to a group of people who, for the most part, did their thing off broadway, well out of the spotlight. There's no crime in it, but I can see how a discipline so closely associated with academic and scientific rigour would sit uncomfortably in a medium where truth can be a very tricky concept to pin down.
