- Comment on Is Roots really that controversial that it needs to be banned? Haven't watched the movie cause I quit pot and haven't read the book but isn't it like historical or something? 1 week ago:
After some research it originated in the movie “half baked” and has been referenced more than once across other stoner films. So the guy’s not completely off his rocker.

Can you name more than one movie where they do this? I’m curious.

It was immediately and obviously debunked when conservatives and their movement were most vulnerable so the reaction was to cling to the totem of Ivermectin like it could give them salvation.

Because your body naturally produces things you need to clean, it’s like 75% of the reason you do it. Eating stuff just speeds up the production of bacteria. Give your breath a smell as you wake up in the morning before you eat anything, it reeks.
You should brush your teeth in the morning whether you eat breakfast or not.

So often it’s me typing out a big old comment. Realizing I can preempt some nuance to help the conversation. Thinking of a dozen more little nitpicks that might happen and realizing it’s just not worth it and it’s really the idiocy of the argument that’s making it so hard to explain myself.

Yeah but then when I see a backwards L I don’t know what the fuck’s going on

- Comment on why does almost nobody live here? 1 month ago:
I’ve had similar thoughts. It’s ocean-side cities along America’s West coast, it’s along the same coast as some of the most desirable locations to live in the world (SF, LA, and many cities in between and beyond.) it seems strange that the population moves further inland when you look on a map.
- Comment on why does almost nobody live here? 1 month ago:
What the hell lmao. You made an argument for why people don’t live in New York because I don’t move to New York.
And implied that literally everywhere else in the world besides where I live has reasons why “nobody” lives there because I don’t live there.
The logic isn’t strictly wrong per se, it’s just something akin to a tautology, it means nothing.

I think, like valium, you have to keep yourself awake. Either artificially or somehow through willpower

If you don’t like or don’t want to explore music, that’s your prerogative. It’s a hobby and a skill you can build like anything else.
You could have the one pop, country, or metal song/artist you enjoy and not branch out, it’s perfectly valid, but if you like the sound of a particular song or genre there are many songs in other genres that will have the same vibe. It’s just up to you to explore.
I think part of the problem here is that a “genre” is a vague, idiosyncratic definition that overlaps with every other so-called genre.

Right. You don’t contradict me. You emigrate from somewhere if that’s your subject. And you immigrate to somewhere.
To put it more simply. You emigrate from America. Or you immigrate to America.
- Comment on Full circle. 1 month ago:
Right, so you’re emigrating from America and you’re immigrating to, say, Zimbabwe.

Not at all, if you have taste in music, you find great music in all genres. Great music is great, no matter what broad categories it is defined by. “Jazz” covers an astoundingly vast spread of sounds and feelings. If you enjoy music for the sensation of music, Jazz is just one of the many, many places that you will find that joy.
- Comment on Wasted potential. 1 month ago:
Anyone with a taste in music.
- Comment on Maturing 1 month ago:
It definitely depends. It’s also hard to tell. My most straight-laced friends from college did acid at least once if not more, and there is a friend or two of mine that I would swear on my life experimented with drugs if I didn’t know better.
That’s something people don’t really acknowledge about drugs. The actual rate of hard abuse or like injuries/death is relatively low. It’s like driving a car, it’s one of the most common causes of death but the actual chance is so low that you don’t really think about that every time you hop in one. Similarly, a lot more people have done drugs (at least once) than you would expect. It’s just if you only take acid once there’s an overwhelming chance that it won’t have any long-term effects (except for the epiphany that there’s a wider world out there than just our every day perception lol)
Then again, it varies wildly by region so there’s a fine chance that it really isn’t as popular around you.

Life is for having fun, it doesn’t mean it awards you fun for lying in bed for 16 hours straight. You have the opportunity to go and make your own fun.
- Comment on AI Slop 1 month ago:
No there’s a literal cult that believes if you don’t pour all your money and effort into creating an AI overlord then once it’s created it will torture everyone that didn’t help create it. This is the explicit reason why many silicon valley douches like Peter Thiel are spending all their effort on making AI. It’s as batshit stupid as it sounds.

The reason I’m not crazy worried about steam, and I don’t even think it’s a monopoly per-se (although I’m not referring to any definition, just a vibe) is that steam has a lot of the “market share” of video game purchases, sure, but if steam shut down tomorrow, or did something heinous enough to warrant a boycott, I am able to move. The epic games store and GoG both exist at the very least.
It would be a pain for me because I have a lot of money poured into steam, but not for anyone just getting into gaming who doesn’t have cache with steam. I didn’t pour it into steam because it was the only place for me to go, it was the best place for me to go. Idk, a big difference in Steam’s “monopoly” is that they don’t own a scarce physical commodity like oil or land, and they don’t have anything exclusive except maybe Valve games. Also unlike a monopoly there are many similarly functional competitors easily accessible on the Internet that offer an almost identical service.
Steam “locks you in” to their ecosystem. But only for each individual game you choose to buy on their platform. If you didn’t want to hitch all your games to Steam for fear that they shut down or break bad Steam does not mind if you install GoG and buy physical copies of games to diversify your portfolio so to speak.

From what I’ve seen. The love now is a reaction to the initial hate. When violet08 started posting I remember most of the responses were “what is this horny shit doing all over my timeline?” and when they wouldn’t let up people started to see them as an icon.
Now that they’ve deleted their account and came back of course people are going to be hyping up the prodigal son even more ironically than usual.

If you meant diplomatic then the rest of your sentence regarding veto powers makes no sense. You clearly meant democratic the first time.

You could write a cool metaphor in which it’s obvious that time travel is able to fix everything, but billionaires and their government shills insists that some bad things have to happen (only to their enemies) and they have to control it.
