This is what Ive been saying to everybody.crying about Trump... We needed our own crazy guy to win this. People thought Hillary was the 'pragmatic' choice. Wrong!
Should have stuck with Bernie... Oh friggin well, at least people have a reason to be interested in politics the next few years
But it's very entertaining. Instead of video games or Adult Swim, kids could stay up late trying to troll the POTUS on twitter. That's a level of public engagement not offered by other candidates
I have no such place in your Reddit lore. Is it not interesting to use '3am lucidity' as an insult to a one candidate, when the other one is a drinker who can't keep her shoes on?
Interesting how we're hearing "awake at 3 in the morning" paired with "nuclear codes" so often. Dudes ready to spit fire 24/7. And, unlike Swillary, won't be drunk any of those 24
I knew youd think of it fondly ... I was very nice about it
"more violets in the media" This is clever. I could see this becoming a graffiti meme
Alright. I'm sorry for using the slur. I won't bring that stuff here.
Yeah, I thought I was being funny by emulating 4chanisms. Like last time I said an offensive word on hubski. I resolved to lose the ironic edge after that. But I messed up here, because, "Oh, replies on hubski, the place full of understanding humans. Engage tryhard mode." Apparently it's worse than last time, because b_b actually blocked me as opposed to just saying my shit's lame. He should block me if I bother him, but being on the bad end of a "WTF is wrong with people?"...argh. I'd have apologized to him in reply to that if he didn't block me.
Well maybe I will. The Ass-Hole will be the /b/ hubski always wanted. We will be characterized by extreme saltiness towards the kleinj00.
god damn some of these are funnyHi Zachary, Hope your week is going horribly slow, i want this to end.
a regimen of piracetam 800mg daily combined with our technology creates a unique opportunity for you.
32.5% masculine, 76.3% feminine, 73% neutral Kinda weird, a lot of the masculine traits on there are things people tell me I should be if I want to improve my life. So every time I got to one, I was like, "Oh...been meaning to do that." Next time I'll do better.
I haven't tried it, but I've read a lot about it. I wondered if it might help 'the grog'. That kinda general cognitive dysfunction that makes you seem sleepy and non-alert all day. Everything I read seems to be pointing at it pretty excitedly. One headline even said "Why you are suffering from a Modafinil deficit." There hasn't been much study into the long term effects though. Gotta be careful when it comes to pharmaceuticals. I have shift-work sleep disorder and might be able to get a prescription, though, so I'll report back if I ever decide to.
I'm ready for the marshmallows, too. I'm also ready for tiny spy drones and global surveillance, as long as AI keeps up the adorable antics.
So TNR's web traffic had been falling dramatically, when it was bought by one of the co-founders of Facebook. Then a couple years later it's set to serve a public interest through digital media. I don't know how close that interest is going to be with TNR's former interest, but it sounds profitable.
i never considered the effect racial tension had on the sports industries. Cons of living under a rock no. 186
this Oswald von Wolkenstein tune reminds me of Disney villain anthems despite being from the 16th century
I don't know what it is I feel like crying every time I come here
this made my tongue go numb. all the visual-mashup reminds me of how things remind me of other things. Like how words and sounds trigger hormones that are familiar , connected to other memories and shit. Too much for me right now.
Similar things happen to me. People tend to have a harsh reaction when I undermine their emotionally-charged beliefs with an effort to understand a situation. To me, it seems like two different ways of dealing with the negative emotions from a frustrating situation are at odds with each other. I've caught myself doing both. Fuming, "that guy is just a dumbass"-type rationalizations quickly patch me up and let me move on. Hatred is kind of cathartic. Maybe in your mom's case it was something positive, having faith in a system and emotional attachment to that faith. Like learning to love something after living with it so long. On the opposite side is trying to fit the situation into a bigger picture, really trying to understand why it's happened, and using that information to calm yourself somewhat. Understanding that people have habits, and aren't totally 100% in control of what they do. Or that an imperfect system that our society is based around could stand for improvement. I feel a great sense of calm when I rationalize things this way (or at least feel like I have). Almost...a smugness. I don't think you're an asshole. I do think the way you rationalized those situations brought you closer to the truth. But also to a disagreement with your people. Perhaps their reactions made you feel like an asshole because you brought a conflict where they thought there wouldn't be one.
True that. I just stick to the old 'hidden camera in the backpack' and send it to NSA when I get home.
That'd be a pretty dangerous hoax to pull off. What happens if the rock hit the parachute? A better hoax, i guess. "Skydiver killed by meteorite"
Last time I tried that, I ended up holding my two fingers to my friend's cat and said "look, i'm giving your pussy the two-finger test." For me it's more like a social laxative.
clever dulcimerist. Never heard this song before, i kinda like it
Could trends like cutting be fueled by similar principles as this Facebook mass hysteria? My impression is that it's kind of like a meme, but a poisonous one, that would nest itself only where it was welcome (ie people who are already predisposed to acts of self harm).
I vaguely remember a study about an Asian country where they mainly sleep on floor mats, and they have less back problems there. Can't seem to find it now though. I'm mostly just seeing a lot of anecdotes. Maybe it's one of those things where that varies between people. Can't find any real studies on it though. For me, though, it definitely helped my posture and back problems. I don't know much about barefootedness, aside from that you shouldn't run barefoot. I'm sure the story's different if you're in some remote village in Kenya though. Or in that one African country, where they'd just keep pace with gazelles until the gazelles collapsed of exhaustion. Persistence hunting is extreme.
I get that, too. Last night I listened to 'Why Shit So Crazy' for the first time and got pretty sucked into it.
dude's real cerebral. the way he treats his audience is awesome, they're basically his guinea pigs. In a good way, though. not unlike Stravinsky or someone like that.
"It’s important that the archives remain here with the foundation, because not only are we best suited to care for them, but we’re best suited to interpret them." I can't find a generous way to interpret this. They're being pretty selfish by trying to keep these private. I'd love to get a hold of Moog's notes and papers. He's an insightful dude, both from a technical synthesis perspective, and a more conceptual one- relating to how synthesizers fit into music as a whole.
