I was 'permanently' suspended for around six hours this morning.

(Permanence is a non-existent concept so we can't fault Twitter for failing at it.)

If you want to know why, it was because I made a joke, which the alleged victim, @pauly0x, even liked: fredrickbrennan.medium.com/twitter-suspen…
Obviously Pauly didn't report me.

I have no clue who did but I think it's BAYC related.

Regardless—heed my d/n—I have no illusions about the impermanence of this account, and will be making more of an effort to migrate to mastodon.online/web/@copypaste as Twitter is beyond broken.
I may have had a lot of fun here over the years, but I've never thought the endless bounty of laughs and good times this account has provided were guaranteed to exist in perpetuity.

So, should it happen again, I'll respond the same way. That is: "meh, time to work on some PR's".
Also I think my suspension was #BURNBAYC related.

I emailed @ryder_ripps and @pauly0x about it but neither replied in time as they're on the West Coast and it's morning still there.

that's fucked but i feel like i know a lot about schizophrenia/schizotypy (at least much more than the average person)

i sent @kunstderfuge1 this book for example. first read 2015, year it came out!

i don't believe Stew is schizotypal, but rather narcissistic Image
i believe this because he never seems to have 'episodes'. he never seems to be having a bad day or a good day. he's just… malicious ole Stewy.

my theory about him is he is partially pilled but as an ARG dev is making his own ARG called StewAnon to "fight" Q and "end" the ARG
nevermind that Q is a prototypical political ARG and won't be the last, and that this is not a way to fight anything, analysis helps way more.

as a narcissist, he believes himself perfect and takes frequent narcissistic injuries. that's why he has permanent enemies.

i haven't posted serious analysis (just memes) about this yet but i think that "suicide trolling" is a really interesting—and troubling—addition to the Stewaverse and its lexicon

i had never heard the term before. do we know who coined it? (1/?)
i think it can be a smart term but needs to be carefully applied and probably more as a verb than as a noun descriptor.

to imply your opponent is a 'suicide troll' is to basically tell ur followers 'this person doesn't value their life or time at all so y should we'
also it mocks actual suicidal ppl—some of which engage in trolling

i think it exists. sometimes Kirt does things i see as suicide trolling. but i don't think he's a suicide troll/doesn't value his life. i just think he gets carried away w/his trolling lol and 4gets to value it.

i find ur tactics quite often harmful but seeing u do a 180° on Kiwi Farms has been beyond based

u used to even stan Metokur to me but admitted he was also conned lol

the whole Kiwiverse is a shitty little world. it didn't used to be like this but there are now 3 tiers of users
u have bakers in the threads, usually highly motivated, highly angry users with good opsec who are so obsessed for their own insane reasons

most of what they find is obviously dumb and they get told so

but sometimes their finds break into tier 2, the sub-influencers
an example of one of these is Flamenco

he's not a big streamer, but he's got a degree of clout and when he backs a theory its credibility in the Kiwiverse rises

if a few others like him (another example is PPP) back it, it can get bumped to tier 3, the influencers proper

i don't think i can quantify anymore, i do keep somewhat good records but due to various situations that have happened there are now multiple totals.

e.g. ever commissioned, same but withdrawn at own volition, same but withdrawn at artist volition (low total count), and so on.
therefore i prefer to quantify it in terms of financial outlays. the lifetime total has to be approaching $6,000.
in the above, "withdrawn" means "from circulation" not "deleted from my feed", fyi. i've never deleted previously posted art. but if i withdraw a piece it stops appearing in the rotation. since the rotation is so large, no one ever knows if that has truly happened lol.

sorry u are not a regular here & i didn't recognize ur name or parse ur handle right ("looked like maybe S. Pardō Wu" to me @ first lol)

indeed i know ur nick but dont remember beefing w/u at all during 2014–2016

i think ur engaging a lil 2 much in 'great man theory of history'
as in, one person can't ruin chan culture.

not without a bunch of users. meaning, those users pre-existed me (and came of age w/me as i wrote even tho it was on /v/ vs /g/)

i think you're analyzing a historical cycle as a fault of one person which doesn't seem fair
then again i didn't run 8chan very well (for the short time i ran it at all before Watkins captured it)

but given that Ron was looking into capturing that userbase, certainly had i said no his dad and he would have set something up
