There would be absolutely nothing of substance left on X without crypto and rage politics

America and Japan have been discussing BBQ for about a week and. And the Japanese have just discovered ranch dressing. It's hilarious to watch.

Russians recently joined in and, they're fuckin' hilarious in a way that only Russians could be: https://imgur.com/GaTnQk7.jpg

The people who hate Musk/X always out themselves by flagrantly lying about it/him.

  • Is this the X marketing team or something? You’ve posted about discussing BBQ with different nations twice in the comments here

    • It completely took over twitter for like a week and it was endearing. I made this myself (with grok's help) to celebrate: https://i.imgur.com/MG9mUxW.jpeg

      If you're rejecting X out of hate for Musk, you're simply missing out on some really cool stuff happening.

      The BBQ thing a huge international thing. I learned that the Japanese have a term that translates as "food terrorism": pictures of mouthwatering food that you only get to look at, not eat.

      It was a bigger deal than even I'm conveying and honestly heartwarming.

  • So a couple of people in Japan tried ranch for the first time and it is news worthy?

    If this isn’t a paid marketing post, you should apply!

    • You can tell someone is having a very emotional response when they respond with a strawman fallacy like "a couple of people in Japan tried ranch for the first time"

      And that's when you stop engaging with the bad-faith actor:

      >Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith.
