mitigatedextras sideblog for stuff that doesn’t make the cut for the main blog exists, if that’s your thing, dear readers
can you imagine if I had a sideblog for things that I thought weren’t good enough for this one
Mathematically, assuming a uniform distribution in the Tumblr space, as the number t of Tumblrs goes to infinity, the probability of a blog with the same contents as argumateextras existing approaches 1.

Wow that’s a tough one. At first I think that version of me would be completely unrecognisable, but then I’m not so sure. I already have very strong moral inclinations, even though I am aware they are not baked into the universe; perhaps if I believed that these moral principles were fundamentally real then there would be few observable differences in my behaviour, besides what I might say in discussions about moral realism!
To think otherwise is to fall into the Jack Chick fallacy, where an absence of the god of Abraham immediately gives one a license to kill, cheat, and steal.
That’s actually my estimate about what would be different in the Moral Owl Argumate AU, but the Argumate fanfic writers disagree with me.

In a dystopian future where the government regulates the choice of preferences for new moral agents at time of creation, genderfluid robot Optimum 7 has been declared illegal by the Turing Police. Can she survive the death of her creator, the elusive, elite transhuman Strayan Shtpost Hacker @argumate?

I mean, if we’re being honest, just how good is the typical Rationalist at distinguishing between owl sexes, much less owl genders?
This outcome was, sadly, inevitable.

Look when I claimed that America was a pumpkin-strewn dystopian hellscape I was only joking
Only a fucking coward would say there are too many pumpkins in this country.
You’re not a coward,
are you, Argumate?
not like other girls who say they’re not like other girls.
contrarian/metacontrarian position: I am exactly like other girls. I am near the median of the normal distribution of girls
“I’m not the boy your mother warned you about; in fact I’m not sure why I even brought that up.”
I’m the girl your mother warned you would claim to be the girl your mother warned you about.
what if the girl your mother warned you about… was yourself
Argumate was the Most Dangerous Girl all along?
I’m really not sure how I feel about this.
The Memetics Unit of the Ministry of State Security’s Cyber-Warfare Division denied responsibility for rumors of “thinking emoji waifu” that began to circulate on Monday.
“The weaponization of emoji in such a manner,” stated Public Representative Takayama, “is unthinkable. It’s unthinkable. It sounds like something [ISIS] would do.”
Pressed on previous creation of Sheikh Shrek Rule 34 that was allegedly traced to the Ministry by foreign news organizations as part of what was believed to be an effort to undermine Saudi Arabia, Rep. Takayama continued to deny any claims of the Ministry’s involvement with emoji-based cyber-weapons. “Look, I know all those foreigners think we’re going to cast some sort of emoji spell at them that will somehow hack their brains into voting for the next Brexit, but that is not what we do,” he said. “The Memetics Unit is a defensive organization created to protect this country from political interference from non-state actors such as 4chan.”
The history of our nation’s involvement with formalized memetic warfare is believed to have started in 1986, with an internal START Corporation paper titled “Going Viral: Ideological Replication Vectors & Attack Surfaces” originally circulated among a handful of elite mathematicians…
