Waking Life is an excellent movie that every coming of age adolescent should watch.

Alex Jones got drunk on investigative journalism success. It is not a stretch to say that he and Michael Moore were very similar and on similar paths at one point in history (circa Waking Life, 1999-2001.). . Turns out one of them is both batshit crazy and great at mass manipulation, while the other is still righteous but struggles to get noticed.

I’m not the person you replied to, but I was taught to write very formally in school and while writing legal position papers at work and llms mimic a style that was drilled into me. It’s really frustrating, but other than swearing or making a dumb joke, I don’t know how to make it clear that I’m a person (and tbh, the former won’t work for long and the latter is already outdated).

i’ve done the same, and old markup formatting makes shit look stupid unless you take time to comb over it in preview. it’s kinda part of the reason i don’t like it that lemmy won’t let you do ninja edits.

I don’t know if I just blocked the troublemakers early, but I haven’t seen any of the sniping over edits that was occasionally there on Reddit, at least. But yeah, I get annoyed when I have to edit a whole comment just because of formatting or a typo.

Oh shit, I never realised that was Jones in A Scanner Darkly.
But yes, it’s such a good film. Definitely in my top 10 of all time.
