Well with the west and the south splitting most of the nuke supply and the Midwest being capable of thriving in nuclear winter, it’s really anyone’s game. The northeast is no longer the manufactory hub it once was. Ultimately though, I think the west is set up to take home the victory with critical support and materials from China. Can’t really get that anywhere else too readily.

Bringing us back to Tucker Carlson’s “legacy Americans” screed. Why are those Irish people in Ireland so bad when I can’t do race science and also Irish Americans are chuds like me too? Well because they just aren’t respectable legacy Americans of course!

I’ve been with family all week experiencing this godforsaken heatwave and all I can think about is needing a Luffy style straw hat.

Waow

calling this an infographic is a bit of a stretch honestly

cake or death?

oh yeah, i don’t mean to give the impression i think he’s not personally wealthy or not personally implicated in human rights violations. obviously he’s both those things. i’m more just getting at that he doesn’t even seem to care about enjoying it, he’s just the high priest of the god of the Youtube algo

you’re goddamn right comrade. except in the comms i moderate

One of the things I really liked about the year I smoked cigarettes was being generous with people who wanted to bum one. Just a little bit of human kindness I could afford to share with people I wouldn’t have talked to otherwise.

I wish every reactionary a free helicopter ride honestly

Oh I remember that shit. I didn’t post in that because I’ve learned to shut the fuck up when the going gets stupid. Probably why I’ve never caught a ban despite being stupid. Remember folks, you can always choose not to post.

He’s like a singular human embodiment of modern capitalism. He doesn’t even have the motivation of profit, he has apparently operated near, below, or at cost for a long time. A modern Mr Beast video costs something like $1m to produce apparently. It’s literally just growth for growth sake and nothing else. Absolutely demonic, no way he knows what happiness is.

for miles

oh ok, i don’t think i missed that really then. i just didn’t conceptualize it as political directly (although obviously the political implications are there, especially the historical development of the world). thanks!

yeah, that’s a good thing for me to keep in mind. i don’t think i made the point i wanted to all that well. there’s a certain almost unbelievable historical credulity in most writing that appears in the Atlantic that often prompts me to question whether they’re aware of history occurring at all. but my diminishing the important unique burdens instituted under capitalism does not help either.

Like I understand that this is probably moreso about the specific mechanisms by which this happens currently in amerikkka, but the historical material point of diminishing women is to force them to being object to violence and bondage. Always has been.

Can you elaborate a bit (or just point me in a direction) about Frieren having a very specific political message? I really enjoyed the first anime series of it, and I don’t think I could succinctly describe its political messaging. Would love to hear your thoughts on it.

Honestly just do Debian again. It’s one of the most stable distros for a reason. If anything, it’d make more sense to use Debian for a backup computer.

I genuinely am, and you can only try to stop me (i’m white non-cishet people with a softspot for mr brightside, plz don’t come at me)

there are like three songs that every single person in a straight, white club of any variety will know the words to: “All the Small Things,” “Mr Brightside,” and “Sweet Caroline.” ok there are more than that, but watching a lot of hammered undergrads screaming along to all three in a row at the end of a night was formative.
