    Man, I looked at this too long, wondering who “9$$” is supposed to be and what a weirdo meme this is. Then I looked at the community this comes from and saw that it really is a weirdo meme.

      $$ refers to the PID of the current process.

        so… unsafely kill the current process, which should be the terminal?

          Yes, but extract the underlying meaning of what you’re doing and apply it to real life without linux or a computer involved.

          I don’t know what the rules are about trigger warnings here so I’ll avoid being more explicit.
