There’s a well-known quote about how capitalism seems inescapable, but so did the divine right of kings. The problem I have with it is that we didn’t get rid of kings. If anything, men like Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Jeff Bezos, they have more wealth and power than kings could ever even dream of. All that’s really happened is that royalty has been obfuscated; they no longer need to be the face of the kingdom. They can buy elected leaders to achieve their goals, purchase media companies in order to control the narrative of the peasantry, and they never need to step in the spotlight. It makes me think that humanity will ultimately never be able to rid ourselves of these parasites; there will always be dragons.

the arm censorship is like something you’d see out of a cartoon lol

even if it’s not immediately used in a coercive manner, who’s to say it will remain that way? It’s the kinda thing that fascists would immediately abuse the second they got power. Leftists gaining a majority and implementing UBI doesn’t mean they’d be able to hold a majority.

At this point I think democracy as a concept is just broken, and I’m not sure how to solve it. Too many people are easily duped into voting against their own interests.

World of Warcraft, I’m making the Legion no longer all aliens, they’re demons from Hell again. Also the Draenei look exclusively like the Broken, no pretty goats allowed.

Yes I am retconning a retcon, it’s been ~20 years and it still bothers me! also ig Shadowlands never happened, just for good measure.

sorry do you mean II or XI year olds?

On the left, Throat-GOAT champion of the White House circa 1981-1989, Nancy Reagan. On the right, the current holder of the title, Donald Trump.

getting passed around by alternative women like a blunt

new fantasy unlocked

it was chased down by AI on the internet lol, by suggesting it’s a reference to that it kinda proves you don’t know anyone with kids. It’s from a viral basketball TikTok

I’ll agree that there are more sequels now because studios are even more adverse to new ideas than before, but let’s not pretend shit like the slasher franchises of the 80s aren’t examples of needless sequels becoming the trend. Studios have been on the search for money since Hollywood became a cultural force. Hell, look up some of the beach party franchises of the 60s, do you think any of those sequels were necessary?

it doesn’t come from the rap video lol, it’s literally just from a viral TikTok. and does what are those or Damn Daniel really convey information? As I remember it, people would just say it as a vocal tic because it was popular to say. If an adult asked what I meant by it, I’d also probably say nothing.

You’re old man yelling at kids to get off your lawn levels. Let the kids have their stupid vocal tics, they’ll move onto something else in a few months anyway.

crab claw

No, because they’ve been doing them since before I was born. Are you over 60 years old? because if not, they’ve been doing them since before you were born too.

6-7 is the same as Damn Daniel or What Are Those, it’s just repetition of a viral meme

fuck I don’t know why but “literally every man in history” just fuckin sends me

p sure that’s one of the bigass thundercubes, it’s used for krangling.

you have 12 fingers?!

I did! The outcome has been that I go to the gym now lol, these days about 2-4 times a month depending on how I feel. I was trying to chase the dragon of a tight tummy for the first six months and was regularly going 3 times a week, but slowed down once I realized that my bloating probably has other causes.

there is Dota though, proving once again that it’s the superior MOBA

perspective is hard

haha, jokes on you, it’s not that I don’t eat because I have depression! I don’t eat because I have unresolved digestive tract issues that cause my stomach to only produce pain signals, and the stress and discomfort that causes me has made me depressed!
