All tweets are fictional, but some tweets are more fictional than others. Don't ruin the joke.

I'm not. But I like reading to interesting but wrong stuff and chatting to interesting nerds, and they've got plenty of both, so...

Like basically if you like talking about maths, feelings, and philosophy on the internet, you're going to end up knowing a fair bunch of rationalists.

All that being said, I do routinely engage in the core defining practice of rationalism: Arguing with rationalists.

TBH there are probably people who believe roughly what I do and would still self-describe as rationalists - it's a more heterogeneous bunch than the caricatures would suggest - I just never got into the community proper.

There's a lot of things I think of as core tenets of the rationalists that I flat out reject, but I'm pretty sure that's not a disqualification for being a rationalist.
