@stack I always took it as a short term for a pseudo-intellectual, no?

Makes sense. Just that I haven't heard the abbreviation out in the wild.

The author has discovered cynicism, a key skill in graduating from NPC to Spectator. However, a cynic is someone who has spotted the problem but doesn’t know what to do about it. To further graduate to Player, you must pivot your cynicism into positive action, else it will turn on you, and the final level will be Nihilism.

I think that’s what pseud means.

@stack I've seen it used a few times out in the wild.

I quickly progressed from Cynic to Nihilist after noticing that action generally has negative consequences.

WEIRD.

Yesterday's randomly picked Wordo word was PSEUD. As we were discussing it here.

Also, I failed to guess it, even after this exchange.

Some days it really feels like a buggy simulation.

This site looked suspiciously like morena.rip which I had stumbled upon some time last year. Yep, it's the same IP! It serves the same content on both Gopher and NEX.

A very curious person.

none.rip — I don't know who this is and I'm not necessarily on board but I admire their commitment. [nex link]
