    The internet has completely ruined my sarcasm detector. For every completely unhinged satirical opinion there’s somebody out there who will express it with complete sincerity, and it can be impossible to tell. That’s Poe’s Law for you…

      I’ve had the luxury of only seeing what hasn’t been removed by mods here, and I’ve reset my baseline for Beehaw comments accordingly. I can hit people over the head with satire if need be, but it’s neither as effective nor fun as being subtle.
