    Jack Kimble is a fake Congressman. It’s a running joke.

    Raw link because apparently I can’t figure out how to format a link in the Avelon client I’m running without typing everything out.

    Sometimes it feels like about 60% of people are in the bottom quartile.

      They are. Dolphins and octopus pack the upper 75%.

      Thats what happens when you immerse yourself in schadenfreude.

        Not sure I follow are you implying people that enjoy others’ suffering seem less intelligent?

          No, when you immerse yourself in finding joy in others suffering, you tend to view other people in general as below you to lift yourself up.

          So if you’re constantly reveling in others misfortune, you tend to view them negatively in general, so you would view people as being of lower intelligence, worse decision making, etc, making them deserving of their misfortune.

          If you just enjoy others’ suffering without attaching some sort of justification for why they deserve it then you’re just a psychopath.

            Interesting, thanks for explaining. I guess some people get their neurochemical fix from pretty messed up places, and humans always want to feel justified.

            Justifying your enjoyment in seeing others suffer is no better, you’re just deluding yourself into righteousness.

      I believe that is the effect known as the “electoral college”?

    50% of students in the lowest half. It’s truly appalling.

    He knows what this means. Don’t go “look how stupid this guy is”, always ask yourself what they’re trying to lie about.
