Cowbee might say that great man theory isn't real, but I think they're a real great person

Sometimes so much that I want to ask him this.

Nintendo character Daisy saying "Are you tired of being nice? Don't you just want to go ape shitt." to the Nintendo character Peach.

Patience is important to sway people

The others that are too far gone aren't worth trying to convince, but providing good sources is still useful for all the lurkers in the margins

You too, wish I could have your attitude when the fash get mad at you

Cowbee has answered so many of my questions and been very patient.

We all deserve to do him a favour and read his ml reading list

I think ML isn't for me but @Cowbee has been super patient in answering my questions and I'd love to consider them a friend

I actually love all chronically online weirdos. The fediverse would be nothing without those willing to sacrifice hours of their time daily to a platform like this. We owe you everything.

I'll take days or weeks off, but I know when I'll come back the same people will be hammering keys in a game of dueling pianos with infinite energy and infinite free time.

This is the big top, and the clowns never stop dancing in the rings for anyone who pays admission. In this case admission is 0, the value proposition doesn't stop.

Kind of rude to call him a "chronically online weirdo", TBH.

Was that worse than clown?

Really working towards the next apology form, aren't you?

This is just someone who thinks communists are Nazis and generally has a history of trying to insult me personally. You can ignore, nothing they say actually means anything.
