Nope. It’s a bad prescient. Society would be a worse place if life had no inherent value.

I would drop off the face of the earth only to stash porn mags all over the woods.

Hey. I’m terrified of living under a fascist regime! Twinsies.

The tankies have been notified. I expect you will receive a proper welcoming in the not so distant future.

Personally, I loved the idea of new media. Cable was shit.

After experiencing new media… there’s some good stuff in there, guys. I promise. Just gotta wade through mountains of shit.

There should be some rule like; if you have a preference it can’t exist all by itself unless it’s watered down or mixed in with every other preference.

Thank all that is good for genres. At least there is some media that can define itself clearly enough and still build enough of a following to self fund.

Ow

It’s OK, we can abandon mccdonalds as a concept. No loss there.

It’s fun how the algorithm has flipped it to musk makes don lemon cry. Crazy times we live in.

Must not be an anime fan.

Imagine if we gave hoarders the same status we give wealthy people.

Like you’re invited over for dinner.

You get to the door and ring the bell. They yell, “come in.” You push the door open against 10000 stacked news papers pushing back at you. You’re instantly hit with the smell of animal feces and urine. You unironically say, “wow, so decadent.” You climb over a pile of furniture and to get to a small clearing in with a couch and a coffee table covered in clutter. You tell your host, “So much stuff, I’m so jealous, you truly possess all the worlds material goods.” They heat up some discount canned ravioli on a hot plate because the only place in the entire house you can habitate is that small clearing with the couch.

After you finish your fine dining experience you leave and you realize you never once saw any animals.

Hoarding is a disease. Doesn’t matter if it’s useless garbage or the idea of a pile of money you’ll never use.

What are you accusing me of?

Well, fucking stop him or something. It’s been 8 years, I think we showed we can hold the fuck out. Show you can dominate the media narrative, maybe.

Me: Trump is absolute clown shoes

My Dad: you just dont understand his brilliance

Trump:

Let’s ne honest though, that’s not the real issue. The real issue is low info voters aren’t going to have a nuanced opinion like. It will be 0 or 10. All of the votes coming in like this will invalidate any consideration you spent some time working out to decide a 7.5 is the perfect representation of how you feel.

Even more big picture. We are wasting our efforts arguing over the details of a voting system when voting reform isn’t even on the table.

Every candidate should be campaigning on it. Not until the Republicans are brazenly defending the broken system, or alternatively join the move for reformation because they think they can capitalize on it, is the country moving in the right direction.

When the pollsters call you your answer to every question should be, “I don’t care we need vote reform.”

When the media focus groups you,“I don’t care we need vote reform.”

When the NAZIs try to bait you, “I don’t care we need vote reform.”

I know, this isn’t a fully fleshed out strategy but it is a stance that will elevate the discussion.

This is the only issue worth campaigning on. Fuck everyone for not realizing it. We will never get this system under control if it continues to misrepresent what the majority wants. There is no amount of bargaining and compromise that will ever bring forth the change we need to stop global climate change. Ranked choice - for its simplicity. Star - for its utility. Etc. Etc. Make the debate strictly about how we will reform voting and push everything else to the end of the list.

BTW, I’m not asking politicians to do this. I’m ask you, the people, if you will make your voice heard and enshrine it with a government that truly represents you.
