I remember when just ‘browsing’ the internet (google) was a pass time. Like you could just search random things into google and find something interesting or novel. The earliest iterations of google basically functioned exactly how you’d want a search engine to and needed zero improvement. we really do live in a fucked world where a technology or service can be perfected but inevitably made worse over time to the benefit of no one but the top

there are some construction projects that instill awe, make you reflect on the hard work it takes to build and the defiance to the natural world it represents. like it really makes you reflect on how the pyramids must have been built versus how we can build things now, and the inherent majesty with our collective talents

anyway those sorts of construction projects are just on every other corner of china lol they really do not give a fuck, if they want a road there by god the road is going there

nah, if you’re weird enough to be you, someone else is weird enough to be for you.

I find myself on Quora more than I would think based off its layout. I think the website is very messy and sometimes makes the information hard to parse. But I do agree in general that I think it has a bad reputation for what it is.

I love BE, I’m in that sweet spot of having never engaged with his online presence but occasionally watched his scripted videos. It makes everyone seem absolutely unhinged when they auto-nope out of any conversation involving him, when the takes usually in question is something like ‘genocide bad’

Hypersexuality can be destructive for the self and online spaces see high rates of hypersexuality that are seen as sex-positivity instead. This leaks out into the real world eventually.

I think it’s direly important to understand where sexuality ends and the real world begins. lots of functional adults cannot do this and it leads to things like bioessessentialist thinking (women just want to get RAILED by HARD STRONG ALPHA MEN WHO ARE BLACK) or obsessive shipping (x and y would be so good together! imagine how they would have sex?!). It makes conversations uncomfortable and makes whatever space they are inhabiting inherently adult-only.

There is so much to this world other than sex. There’s so much to just human relations other than sex. Really, sex takes up such a small part of our lives but disproportionately motivates much of it for most people. It’s a sad state of affairs and I can definitely see where you’re coming from, OP.

He said this. His statements on America were famously negative and analytical of the police

in my experience clothes are a little hit or miss, they vary from generally pretty good to good for the (extremely cheap) price. Even with the misses though they are like a 6 pack of underwear having the pattern be printed a little wonky but they cost me ~1.5 usd equivalent for the lot

Temu is king for clothes imo, even though they’ll wear out quickly, their affordability makes just filling your closet with Temu crap more sustainable than shopping locally. That being said, Temu clothes have the funniest fuckin’ prints I’ve ever seen. Below is a list of some of the nonsense phrases I’ve had printed on Temu clothes I’ve ordered:

• Tree Grandpa
• SheleVele
• WEEDMAN
• Treasutes Mapleleaves Diweige
• Cloud Kissing
• The Meek One - 7

welcome to [western RPG], where you can forge your own path with dynamic choices. This will all culminate with a big battle involving any of these four factions you can choose. We have:

• Fascism
• Libertarianism
• Corrupted liberal democracy
• Independent

these four factions allow a deep exploration of different ideological convictions. which one will you choose? beware! they’re all ~equally flawed~ to keep you discussing for years and years. huh? wassat? a faction that represents the workers? huh? productive forces? class disparity? what the fuck are you talking about?

oh?

that old dusty political theory? well, no, don’t worry, we have an anarchist faction, too. :^)
