- Comment on I'm gonna mute this one 9 months ago:
Liberalism is a political-economic ideology that gives a friendly face to capitalism. While market discipline enforces inhumane measures like a park bench that prevents homeless people from sleeping on it, simultaneously the same society produces the friendly face “solution” of a small, overburdened charity organization to help homeless people.
So the state, which has the authority to enforce public park design, or, you know, regulate housing, won’t help. The liberal solution to systemic social inequity is charity.

Since people are just going to make command line jokes and leave you confused, the spelling is “pseudo”.

The irony is that a stillsuit is designed to prevent dehydration. But in her case it was the cause of dehydration.

Usually ends in “wheep ni ni grah”. But my universal greeting is rusty. Maybe a regional dialect of universal greeting.
- Comment on If these mother fuckers are trying to make me pay for Healthcare to talk to fucking ChatGPT I swear to god ChatGPT is going to write me so many scripts for opioids its won't be funny. 1 year ago:
There can be enough work. We can build parks, fund art, literature, music. If the needs of society are met with less labour, the free hours can be put to creative work.
But that requires a government for the people.

Jeffrey Goldberg is editor of The Atlantic, a former Israeli prison guard, and very tight with the US security state. He has a history of writing DoD press releases as news.
His invitation was not a mistake.

88 is a lucky number in Vietnam. You’ll see Vietnamese restaurants use 88 in their name sometimes.
Different cultures, different meanings. Not that Nazis are a culture. They are distinctly uncultured.

- Comment on Why people consistently vote against their own interests to benefit the rich? 1 year ago:
Tariffs can be paid by the export country, indirectly. They usually have to lower the price of the commodity to make it competitive under tariffs.
Under Fordist economics the domestic industrial boost would lead to increased wages and buying power.
Under neoliberalism the domestic industrial capitalists gain a larger market share and then don’t pay their workers more. Then they are faced with the problem of what to do with products that are unaffordable.

Good film. One of the few good Lovecraft adaptations, IMHO.

Richard Stanley was hired to direct “The Island of Doctor Moreau” but was replaced by John Frankenheimer after a few days of shooting. However, Stanley considered the film to be his baby (he co-wrote the script) and didn’t want to leave. So he disguised himself as one of the mutants and secretly remained on the shoot.
You can watch the documentary about the shooting of this B-movie and it’s full of weird details like that. It’s called “Lost Soul: the doomed journey of Richard Stanley’s Island of Doctor Moreau”

Is that David Frum, speechwriter to the Bush Jr administration? Writer of speeches about the axis of evil? Writer of speeches to whip up frenzy for an invasion of Iraq? An invasion based on lies? That David Frum?

- Comment on Anon figures out how dieting works 1 year ago:
Thanks for your thoughtful answer. I agree that so much is at stake with diet. It all changed for me when I hit 40. I’m going to have to think about the manageable pieces of diet you mentioned. That appeals to me as practical.
- Comment on Anon figures out how dieting works 1 year ago:
Why do you think it is especially difficult to follow this diet now? I keep trying to implement it myself but find the high effort required difficult to sustain, given other demands on my attention and will power.

That was very amusing.
Reminds me of buying coffee at franchises in China. They won’t take cash. You have to have the app, and the banking app.
I have to hand my phone to a coffee shop worker to scroll through infinite options and then look at my banking app because… It’s more convenient!!!
