SuddenDownpour,

Honestly this sounds like one of the most justified and creative uses of auto-generative AI.

There’s a significant Spanish political party that was created by a bunch of friends from a political sciences faculty about 10 years ago. Politics actually destroyed any sort of relationships they had with each other, and they didn’t even have considerably different political leanings.

SuddenDownpour,

The EU has politicians that manage to legislate against the interests of gigantic tech corporations because European tech corporations are far smaller, and thus have much less leverage. Even if the US political system was significantly less corrupt, they’d probably still have issues to legislate against them.

SuddenDownpour,

Jeez I wonder if the prevalence of this trope could have overreaching social consequences

SuddenDownpour,

Ok, listen. A great attitude (what the meme calls ‘confidence’) will definitely improve your chances. This doesn’t detract from the fact that if you were to randomly ask a lot of people out, the vast majority of them would still say no because either they’re not looking for a partner or you’re not their type. The hard part is accepting that fact and continue trying without getting so emotionally exhausted that you no longer even want to try. Tinder makes this even worse, because it condenses dozens of rejections in a short amount of time, in a context that makes looks far more important than other worthwhile traits of yours.

Of course, having an ugly face, being poor and even having bad genetics will make things harder. But there are plenty of fat, ugly dudes and gals in happy relationships. If you see yourself in the meme, your worst enemy is not knowing how to get out of a pit of hurt and self-doubt, but it’s an enemy you can beat.

SuddenDownpour,

Now you hit on autistic people. Comes with the pro that they’ll be more likely to find your infodumping socially acceptable or even enjoyable.

SuddenDownpour,

Yeah but taking advantage of that would require executive ghouls to be capable of appreciating art or even be willing to read drafts.

SuddenDownpour,

Reminds me of this:

There’s a Tory cabal of Communist sleeper agents set to destroy British imperialism in all their forms, including the very country of Britain. Liz Truss was too ambitious and was taken off from power as a result, but I’m glad to see Boris was up to finish the task o7

SuddenDownpour,

Except when you’re playing Victoria and the capitalists decide it’s time to build the 34th arts academy with the building capacity it took you sweat and blood to build.

SuddenDownpour,

Wait until you hear about Latin American colonizers taking inspiration in the cities of “Granada”, “Córdoba” and “Santiago” to name their cities “Granada”, “Córdoba” and “Santiago”. At least Venezuela changed a couple letters from Venezia.

SuddenDownpour,

From the creators of “Supply Side Jesus”, now comes “Texas Hold 'Em Jesus”

SuddenDownpour,

It happens to neurotypical people, but in very different degrees. It is like one guy telling another: “I hate it when a place doesn’t have elevators”, and the other replies “I know, it gets me so tired to climb all the stairs!”, quite oblivious to the fact that the first one is on a wheelchair.

SuddenDownpour,

Any similar alternative for someone who wants to eat less bread, but not lose weight?

SuddenDownpour,

For whatever it’s worth, I like to see you posting.

Do Israeli Politicians' adult children get conscripted just like the average adult Israeli citizen as part of mandatory service?

I was just reading about how a current Israeli war minister’s son died in combat and it made me wonder that if Israeli’s politicians who make these decisions know their family will be affected by it personally and directly, does that lend towards the suggestion that it is more likely they are making genuinely ethically and...

SuddenDownpour,

The nazis lost the war. Welcome to the world post-1945, you might want to take a look at it.

SuddenDownpour,

There’s a hell of a difference between calling random commenters “dickriders” and having your boss, whom you have a very unequal relationship with, berate you like this.

SuddenDownpour,

The very first thing you have to do when you start to use a new Windows or phone is to spend an hour or two disabling all the bullshit options.

SuddenDownpour,

You’re a great parent. I wish you strength.

SuddenDownpour,

The hubris you need to have to tell someone “you are not qualified to decide about life and death, unlike me”.

SuddenDownpour,

ALL of these issues are deeply important to me, but all of them arise as symptoms of Class Warfare

A society that achieves socialism might still be homophobic, transphobic, racist, ableist and sexist. These things persist in culture even if the socioeconomic system might promote them, you cannot just will them out of existence because the conditions that made them sprout no longer exist.

SuddenDownpour,

“But will the homeless be able to afford those?”

“Who?”
