Or maybe a couple of lexicons merged (e.g. "pwned electorSlates") with a couple of contemporary news items (e.g. marLago). I'm not sure if the SenatorsCreed reference involved a recombination inside the AssassinCreed domain or if it was a mashup in the moment? Is this kind of hallucinagenic stream-of-consciousness a PoMo thing or a Po PoMo? or more likely an (n*Po) Mo... ?

Grand Theft Anointment 2020 was so addictive. @BigDailyBeastMode and @CarlsonTucksAssTart stream great first person views with psyTwinks wares for the blue and red teams. Amazing to watch mad twitch skillz of OG Twink. Top circuit court bender in years hacking a bunch of NPCs to Swarm the Rotunda Base Station and stacking the Grand Council. almost pulled off a 51% attack to rewrite the blockchain with pwned electorSlates! Blue team loaded some great twink wares yesterday to get the honeypot docs at the OGTwink's marLago lair. Can't wait for GTA2024 SenatorsCreed release - already watching some early alpha play.

The classification of twinking as cheating is so over. This point still qualifies for both the general content of the list and the VR/AR discussion. The difference between a bug and a feature depends on the perspective of the "user". E.g. the Log4Shell bug isn't a bug. It's a feature if you're a black hat looking to "move fast and break things" or if you're a white hat looking for some street cred. Circuit benders, gamers, rave attendees, microdosers, etc. are all properly classified as psychonauts. Twinking is yet another form of it. Of course, it's irritating when the butthurttryhard just wants to defeat the stupid boss to make progress in the game and some twink keeps killin' 'em on the run to the boss. The victim thinks it's cheating. But game theory and coevolution tell other stories. Git Gud or Go Home. Do what thou wilt is the whole of the Law.
