i've just realized - the endless prose is drug-fuelled. blog post part vii == i am doing drugs and cannot stop typing
“endless drug-fueled prose about drugs” is an entire, unfortunate subgenre of Rationalist authorship. it takes them a surprisingly long time (usually a couple years or so) to spiral out and stop posting, but the posts usually get even less coherent as they approach burnout
The story goes that Robert Louis Stevenson wrote the second draft of "Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde" in less than a week while buzzing on cocaine. The Rationalists just write obnoxious blog posts.
The famous story about a man using a drug that sets free the a-hole version of himself?
Oh, that was the drug! It was cocaine all along!
that's because they don't have coke, they have adderall and their own farts
