I have to admit, for a brief moment i thought he was correctly expressing displeasure at twitter.
Same here. I think that it also works as a defense of Twitter - reframing the trauma that you experienced by reading Nazi tweets as "learning the wrong thing" from them.
When I see "pica" I think of a typeface, but from context, the author is using a different definition. Do men who want to fight find themselves craving the taste of dirt?
You cannot understand much of modern culture until you've recognized that the state's blunt suppression of the male instinct for glory has caused widespread symptoms of pica that dominate our politics, media, and online interactions.
*pica (usually uncountable, plural picas) (pathology) A disorder characterized by appetite and craving for non-edible substances, such as chalk, clay, dirt, ice, or sand. *
So very many words.
This makes total sense to me. The program lines are the really important stuff, and baseball stats and vestigial organs are like REM in BASIC.

20 My name is Pico Paco, e/Lambda
30 Never more than 2 martinis unless I'm at home
REM What my appendix does is ...
40 Heartbeat = ml/beat x VO2 exerted or whatever
REM Rod Carew batted .388 in 1977
50 Use right hand first if possible
Indeed, super casual. Disturbingly so.
