@AbstractFairy i BEEN here
i know i'm the villain *because* things are going so well
the fall is surely coming soon
i know i'm the hero in this story because things always work out in my favor
i can feel the plot armor on me
i have a confession to make: i've only watched one of his previous specials for like 10 minutes and quit because it was too much cringe
this one is pretty good tho
so maybe giving better tools/"solutions" to everyone can actually have the opposite of an equalizing/democratizing effect, despite intentions to accomplish otherwise
"twitter is a dating site" says person for whom the entirety of life is workable as a dating site
in any case people who are able to comfortably navigate these things become winners in both games, online & offline
there are good reasons for those rules which are obvious to some but not others & we will not get into them
from what i can tell this is maybe the biggest hurdle in dating for many because the rules are that you are not allowed to explicitly communicate certain intentions without the appropriate context
doing something else
