“Digital media” is a hell of a weird way of saying “capitalism”

Oonga boonga brain says “survive” in majority circumstances ¯\(ツ)/¯
If you’re starving and have a melon in front of you, brain probably says find a way to open and eat it.
If you’re starving, have a melon, and a person with better survival skills nearby, you’re probably going to want to befriend them.
To try to determine/posit the individual moral “nature” of a social species is silly. (◕‿◕✿)
McCarthyism, Southern Strategy, three letter agencies spending decades actively targeting/murdering activists; yeah it’s been rough.
It starts with dissociation and eventually evolves into derealization and depersonalization before you know it ♪~ ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ
For me personally, anything times 5 can be reached by halving the number, then multiplying that number by 10.
Example: 66 x 5 = Y
-
(66/2) x (5x2) = Y
-
cancel out the division by creating equal multiplication in the other number
-
66/2 = 33
-
5x2 = 10
-
-
33 x 10 = Y
-
33 x 10 = 330
-
Y = 330
I’m going to hold onto the spark of your optimism until I can light my own; your perspective does help and I hadn’t considered it. Thank you /gen /pos
One can only hope, but knowing how fucking stupid my right-wing, sycophantic, fellow countrymen are I doubt much will change.
Pretty sure everyone who voted against him already hates him though.
“Gagged”: restrained from speaking; with a cloth or special device to block one’s mouth.
“Sub”: submissive person, used in a sexual context here.
Autistic people are stereotypically intensely invested in certain topics, called “special interests.” The “famous” one is trains but mine are cats, video game history, and Pixar movies to give broader examples.
Due to this intense investment/focus/etc. in the special interest, autistic people tend to know a lot of facts about them and care about factual correctness (stereotypically).
Someone spouting knowingly made up facts about an autistic person’s special interest, and the autistic person can’t respond/correct the other because they’re gagged would probably cause some pretty intense frustration.
Some find that frustration to elevate sexual arousal ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Original Broadway casting is a black man so that makes sense.
When I saw it live they cast an Asian man as Washington and he was also quite good for the role so I’d wager it depends on the production.
It’s those fucking illegals who came over on the mayflower that caused this

There’s an American comedian, Gary Gulman, who has a joke something along the lines of “Pop Tarts were invented as a way to say ‘fuck you’ to poor people.”
They are objectively terrible; given mainly to the children whose parents did not have the time to make them breakfast, or could not afford a better meal. Fondness for them comes from nostalgia, most likely.
