I am suffering from an abusive relationship with determinism. It isn't even actively imprisoning me, but it makes me feel like I shouldn't expect more

It all boils down to the stubbornness / shameless / ignorance ratio. A lot of people will be trying to pretend they didn't support this nonsense, but a lot of young people got duped by this shit and are taking the wrong lesson from it

Anyone already worried about England being a dystopic surveilance state is probably thrilled to hear this

Whenever I watch a movie, I often get really curious about the artistic vision driving people to tell the story I've dedicated valuable time and attention to watching. I'm grateful for any movie that does an obvious name drop that lets me know I've already seen everything and can check out

Ten years is a long time. The total dissolution of entire nation states could happen in that time, let alone mergers and dissolutions of the corporate entities that own the Nemesis system. It may be 1000 years before someone finds the Nemesis system left at the bottom of a rive after a WB takeover

More people should be sickened that the elites can dollar-cost-average their degenerate gambling indefinitely until they make a profit. They will never enjoy the same kind of thrill a regular man could make by staking their child's college fund on black with a negative expected value

If you really believe in something, the phrase "people can change" is more like a mantra you use to remind yourself to be patient with people who might still be capable of seeing the world in the way you do

Believe in like you're rooting for and supporting his general philosophy, or believing in like Big Foot or the Chupacabra?

People have a hard time comprehending the difference between a billion dollars and a million dollars, but maybe if we tell people that the length of the ladder they're pulling up after they climb it is getting longer, they'll feel lazy enough to build class consciousness

Even early in his first term, Trump coining and weaponizing "fake news" should have thrown up fascism red flags for anyone that actually took any meaningful lessons away from how fascism actually develops

My sister died in a Context Collapse disaster, so I'd appreciate it if you didn't make insensitive comments that will reach a broad audience of people that will tell me my sister should have worn proper PPE when joining tumblr

I'm about to replace a router that I've stubbornly held on to for a decade. After so long, I don't know if I owe it a viking funeral or if I should put it down like Old Yeller

The only way is to answer the call to adventure and traverse The Mandelaverse, battling many other named phenomena like Murphy's Law. Only once you wield Occam's razor can you strike down the Streisand Effect

If you have written and maintained a code base by hand for long enough, you start to form resolute ideas on code hygiene, architecture and maintainability. Even if a prompt can achieve a facsimile the artform you've been mastering, you are now deprived of the joy of creating it

I almost misread that as "car stereo" like you got your car broken into in the 90's buy a guy with a mullet and a screwdriver. Who steals a speaker?

The perennial urge to turn one of your game concepts into a solo project and drop everything for the next 2-3 years to develop it

I don't really like collecting stuff, but having a display case or shrine to show off something you care about must feel awesome. I want to dedicate an elaborate shrine with framed photos of Robin Williams and Anthony Bourdain and refuse to entertain questions to guests that ask about it

Someone with a monkey paw made a wish to proliferate broad awareness that men can suffer from body dysmorphia, and this is what we got

The keyboard is exacting revenge by finding out what the actuation force is on your digits and the latency between toe press and profanity

I am mortified when I hear about people having conversations in social media DM's or large centralized platforms like it's totally private. Gmail included.

Even if you integrate well enough into hobbit society that your neighbors overcome their unexamined height bigotry, your biggest hurdle will be the Scouring of the Shire. You'd stick out like a sore thumb trying to hide behind those little fences.

Looking through comments on that video is a fun way to hear people describe a feeling that is the opposite of arousal
