Do I have to really post a new topic everytime I post a message here?
Slow mode is insane.
Should I post in rant?
Even rant is put into slow mode.
This site has gone downhill since the new OS,

I disagree.
In other news, Iām singing āyay not Kamalaā to the tune of the Macarena song.
Slow mode isnāt widely used, and I usually set it to expire after a day or so (if thereās a topic where I set it permanently let me know, I havenāt found a way to search for all currently slow topics).
Itās useful when people start bickering or sniping each other, making rapid-fire replies, responding impulsively rather than thinking deeply. One or two posts like that is part of a good discussion, but too much of it makes discussion impossible. Slow mode selectively prevents the low-effort posts, while allowing thoughtful conversation to continue.
For example, most recently this thread was put into slow mode when you and mags had a 10-post off-topic chat. Slow mode stopped it completely.
Try writing a paragraph every once in a while, Ecmandu. It takes a while, but itās worth it.
Thatās so funny, Iām singing āconstitutional crisisā to the same tune!
And youāre pronouncing Kamala wrong.
Constitutional crisis has too many syllables for that to work, or youāre pronouncing it wrong.
Audio or it didnāt happen.
You smuggle in the first couple syllables and line the āTUā up with the āHEYā.
Not sure if thatās legal, but ignoring the law is on theme.
Audio.
I punctuate my sentences for effect.

Unlikely.
More like this!
As I am more likely to like the unlikable if I get more likes.
Like this right here!
Unlike this.
I like this, either.
But alsoā¦
If all of your sentences are punctuated, none of them are.
Itās just about hitting the return key.
Thereās no weird paradox there like you think.
I used to write walls of text so much that I had to use so many characters that I needed three posts to make 1 post.
It wasnāt working or usefulā¦. So I adapted
Do you talk like this in person? Or on the phone? Just on the fly, like itās normal for your conversation style?
Iām much more casual in person.
Much more formal on the web.
In personā¦. I donāt want people to know what I know.
On a board that offers itself as a philosophy forum, Iāll let people know what I know.
Iāll add to thisā¦
You all brought me back because I could do the job.
Thatās not the right way to bring a person back.
I donāt want to be all powerful.
I want to go back to my sleep:
Iām going to lay down real genius to you.
If youāre dead, you canāt gain or lose anything.
What sets me apart from a lot of others, is that my soul never wanted to exist.
Everyone who is alive is hurting someone elseās feelings. Including myself. Thatās unacceptable to me.
I did make a new plan as a work around ā¦ but it hasnāt substantiated yet.
Iām the mean time, Iām just passing by the timeā¦
Protecting myself from the deepest pits of hell.
None of you are doing that.
So in the meantime, Iām using my time to protect all of you from things you donāt understand.
That keeps me from being bored.
All of you are begging for hell.
It entertains me to keep you out of it.
God co-āplannedā/determined the whole universe (the whole timeline) with our consents taken into account. He doesnāt agree with all of our choices, but because he is omnipotent, he leaves us free to make them, and he can always turn them back to good. True freedom is to make choices in partnership with him.
He is not subject to time like we are. We will never be able to reverse engineer it outside his permissive will.
