Weird Internet Communities

[dubsartur]

An Old Media article on Curtis Yarvin mentions that after his wife died suddenly, in 2021 and 2022 he dated people including Caroline Ellison.  People involved in the community say that while Scott Alexander was writing a Neo-Reactionary FAQ he attended events with Curtis Yarvin who does not have a day job so had lots of time to hang around blathering. Yarvin also dated a feminist sex blogger who went by the handle Clarisse Thorn (RationalWiki has an article on a similar type of person called Ozy Brennan). My Early Social Media community was mostly people 1000 km or more away so this merging of meatspace and IRL (and different communities) feels alien.

According to the article Yarvin knows Razib Khan, Steve Sailer, and many other cranks well.
