It's better to miss a friend than to miss a joke

This comes from a brazilian saying. It basically means that if you're making jokes and someone gets offended ( on a personal level ), that is no reason to stop making those jokes. This, of course, isn't an excuse to just be an asshole, and must be used with nuance. The saying could also be directly translated to

"It's better to lose a friend than to lose a joke"

Guy 1 (whose wife died to stillbirth): Wow, these celebrities are crazy
Guy 2: What happened?
Guy 1: I checked the news, and it looks like the rapper DaBaby killed his wife
Guy 2: Well, "The Baby" also killed YOUR wife
Guy 1: Low blow dude
Guy 2: It's better to miss a friend than to miss a joke

Laughing at my own joke

That doesn't prove that.

Hym "Me laughing at my own jokes and talking about my own interests with people who are making a concerted effort to downplay what is happening to me so they don't have to pay or credit me doesn't prove anything. I don't need to prove damages only that it is happening and it is. Do an actual audit of the people you have harassed into either shooting your kids or killing themselves. Filter for whether or not it resembled schizophrenia and wasn't. And then you credit and pay me for the AI. No I don't 'get what I get.' You give me the money and you punish the harassment because if I don't have rights I'm not going to let your kid have them."
