His follow up tweet and replies are pretty bad. Bordering between weaponized incompetence and just straight up 'Im baby' levels of airhead.
I have his latest book on audio, and decided to give it a listen. That was one of the worst intro to a book ever. All I think of was Pangloss and his blind optimism, 'all is for the best'.
what does "weaponized incompetence" mean here and how could it apply to a tweet.
sounds more like an object permanence issue to me, tbh (the cabinet thing specifically)
which some people with adhd have, for example
you don't know many women, do you?
Lack of commitment is the #1 reason of divorce. I know which of my male friends are slobs and generally their partners complain.
but they;re not divorced, are they?
I fully expect them to end up splitting up, but I won't know the exact reason because as I get older I avoid these toxic couples. I don't know anyone in a ten+ year long relationship with these issues. Mid thirties is the time certain friend groups start getting filtered out.
so you admit that you self-selected out of knowing the people that do put up with this?
I'll call them up this evening to catch up and let you know the results.
The inability to visualize things could be placed in the same neuroatypical bucket as autism and ADD. Why do we accept some measurable deviations but not others?
Yeah that's uh... Not what this feels like to me.
If he followed that up with "And that's why I never step foot in the kitchen and make my wife to it for me" then yeah ok. But that's not what's being said.
In the context of the initial tweet about the inability to visualize things in ones own head, I this tweet makes perfect sense. "I have x experience. It leads to y problem".
Ngl, I think you're just reading your own unrelated grievances into a tweet, cuz you dislike the guy for being a lib.
Doesn't he actually have OCD? That feels like a "No shit Sherlock" kind of response.
I definitely think this guy is a stupid lib farting out nonsense. Reading @SerLava's take oh how this whole discussion is inevitably fucked because we can't communicate these issues effectively is what's going on here.
He literally does have OCD, though. Which is probably why he gave that response.
Just call him removed lol
