      I am starting to suspect that Yud never learned to compartmentalize knowledge and put it in different epistemic categories. To him, AD&D alignments, Large Language Models, and race pseudoscience are all nerdy ideas he read about on the Internet, all equally real and true. He does not seem to file a carpenter telling him how to frame a roof, a rabbi teaching theology, and a random twitter account in different categories like most of us would.

        Also, because he never took a writers’ workshop, he never learned that collaborative writing games make for “you had to be there” comedy and the occasional brainstorm, not deathless prose.
