It would be stupid for them to keep it up. I don’t understand the point of this kind of thread. You don’t mix things up, and you don’t mix your illegal (though totally legitimate) activism with your day to day communication tools. It’s just a reckless thing to do and they’d be stupid to not draw the line.

Yesterday I stumbled upon a Sliders episode (probably from 98) where everybody is wearing VR goggles

🏴‍☠️🙋📜🤦

Yeah fraud is the wrong word for this as there is no original book. At least Simon’s was written by a guy who did practice ritual magic and was somewhat recognized in the NY occult scene. I don’t know about the others so they may be more obvious cash grabs.

After the big protests in France there were a million bots posting racist stuff on Reddit. They kept referring to “liberals” but none speaks like that in France. Liberal is the word you’d use to describe corpo-centrists like Macron, never to describe leftists.

It was kind of like the 3 fingers meme from inglorious bastards.

The vast majority of restaurants no longer have their own delivery capacity

Archeologist here, it’s uuuuh for ritual purposes

And you’ll never see someone being faulted for heating their house

It seems you have accidentally placed this meme somewhere where I can see it. Plz remove

So uuuuh… Bioslop?

It’s not entirely transparent though. It’s a paper loss in terms of cash but they did have to give the stock. At their crazy valuations, even 1% is a big deal.

I remember Damso’s “lithopedion” album, and there were some other rappers with vocoder which I forgot. Even Booba was unknown territory to me

Wtf you on about son?

For me it was about ten years ago, when i started working in a company with a lot of people 10 years younger than me. They all listened to new French rap, so i gave it a shot as i am a fan of the 90s stuff so i figured i’d like it. The truth is i couldn’t understand any of it… not that i hated it, but it was just so alien to me. I didn’t understand enough of it to even form an opinion.

I realized that i had missed not only that moment in music, but also all of its precursors, so i really had no point of reference to it. I guess the pop music i grew up with, even the stuff i hated, was always one or two generations away from some genre of music i could identify. But this was based on a whole chain of influences that was unknown to me. A great feeling tbh.

Yeah I’ll admit that rain didn’t deserve this gratuitous side swipe

He’s a hard-left twitch streamer who does reactions on YouTube videos and current events. I find it boring as rain but he’s one of the most popular streamers on twitch.

These people are like sleeper cells activated by any mention of this guy’s name

Oh yeah, makes sense that people who are into child abuse would idolize them. I stand corrected.

This line of thinking is crazy to me cause I don’t see what’s so admirable about Sparta. They had this whole degenerate culture that was entirely dedicated to war and it only gave them a slight inconsistent military advantage. Also this advantage was made possible mostly by their excessive use of slave labor. They still got their asses handed out to them regularly…

I remember when Harmontown existed, they invited Neumann over and most of the interview was just drunk Dan Harmon saying “ok so you wrote two of the best screenplays in history, what the fuck bro”. (Second one was Starship Troopers obviously). On a podcast that was obsessed with dissecting storytelling, this must have been the most cited movie, along with die hard.

Personally my go to is Mad Max Fury Road, as a kind of filter similar to what you have going on. It’s a movie you need to engage with on its own terms, otherwise it is completely meaningless and you will miss the whole entire point.

It seems a lot of people have a problem with clear and radical artistic choices, and will mistake them for defects. This kind of media “literacy” is utterly boring to me as they just train themselves to detect and detest any deviation from Hollywood norms.
