It’s not so much the animal as that I don’t really trust people with that kind of animal, just as I don’t want to see people walking around with a lion, or a machine gun

Even if our knowledge of human biology, neuroscience and consciousness were much more advanced than they are now this would be frightening and ill advised
- Comment on What do you think of the posting of easily searched questions here? 5 days ago:
Perhaps they want others opinions on the matter, or some information not heard of before, or from someone learned on the subject, or they are lonely. There’s nothing wrong with it at all
- Comment on Emergency with Tim Heidecker - ALEX JONES POPPED LIKE A BALLOON 6 days ago:
Eh. I just don’t understand why satire has to be branded, this brand should be dead and buried. It’s not like it was even a serious news program before, so I don’t know what they are making fun of, it was already ridiculous

I can’t believe how much money they wasted to bring back infowars to make fun of it

I really don’t know what would posses them to use glass instead of a metal mesh to begin with but I guess that’s beside the point here. Those look more like display cases tbh

He absolutely cheated, his campaign arranged for the hostages to be held in Iran until Reagan was elected president
- Comment on Why it is that in the USA for most people the default color for a casual sock is white but in most other places the default is black? 1 week ago:
I’m not 100% sure the reason, I suspect a lot of people just wore athletic socks as regular socks, so those are just plain white socks, they are a lot more comfortable for working class people on their feet all day. White collar folks tend to wear darker socks more with the suits and all that. I see younger people wearing darker socks more now though, like gen alpha. Personally I have a rainbow of socks and don’t like either ;)

A lot of “fight for the internet” types were just mad that they couldn’t say slurs on Twitter, well they can now, so they don’t care anymore

As an old school techno fan I dunno about this meme, I’m not a fan of all the build ups and drops in modern electronic music, just give me the same dancable BPM the whole time, I dunno how people can get lost in a groove that only lasts 30 seconds before another change up

I think it already did with the invention of the vending machine, at least the snacks are better today, people are replacing their chips and candy bars with what appear at least to be healthier options in a lot of cases, although who knows about those protein snacks, that is still ultra processed food

I guess I did one thing right and had the foresight to do that over the years lol, but yeah it’s rough now. Soulseek is still around :) then I usually use Bandcamp if I wanna buy things

- Comment on As Chinese Tech Pulls Ahead, U.S. Fears It Will Become Dependent 2 weeks ago:
I dislike headlines that don’t separate the aims of the American business owners and government and those of the American people, because they are very separate and different things these days, sadly. What is the difference if some shitty American owns a business or some shitty Chinese person if the end result is the same shit? Please let us know, show us the benefits of us caring about any of this at all

I don’t right now :( I have a small mini system that has a tape player but I don’t trust it, I’ve been meaning to buy a proper nice cassette deck like a Nakamichi, Denon, Tascam or something like that, like the old component stereo ones with decent transport mechanisms and play heads, but I keep putting it off for other things I guess. I don’t really wanna risk mangling them as some of them have recordings of music I made ages ago lol.
That makes pretty good sense to me. I think that’s part of my attraction to 80s new wave and synth pop so much, it was a time of such androgyny and gender line blurring, not needed to be defined, maybe part of it was for band image but it was still there, and a lot of the songs had more hopeful messages as well. It’s so poppy and fun to dance and sing along to as well :) So I totally get where you’re coming from, music is so powerful in that way how it can really transport you, and even choosing which medium to listen to it on makes a big difference in the mood which is a cool effect
I’ve semi-recently re-discovered my love for singing so Madonna, Tina Turner, Donna Summer, Steve Nicks, Cyndi Lauper, Blondie, Pat Benatar/the GoGos, The Bangles, Tiffany, Bjork, Siouxsie, Eurythmics/Annie Lennox, Bananarama etc. are all some go-to’s, so many amazing, talented ladies.
Haha weeeell, I don’t listen to it so much anymore, it’s a tad noisy for me these days, but that’s rad that your Dad is a fan, any fan of EN seems like they must be a pretty interesting person, it’s so visceral and raw
