funkless_eck,

why doesn’t my version have a launch button like the gif, btw? Genuine question. I have to launch it separately from SUPER+A every time

funkless_eck,

someone hasn’t read The Importance of Being Earnest.

funkless_eck,

oh I thought you were saying - because the meme is about regulating technology- that those things should be regulated.

funkless_eck,

Sure but also, ive then been driving the thing for nearly 20 years by that point, there are other considerations: safety developments / code, electronics, interior materials, rust, cabling/tubing that it might just be better / more comfortable / nicer to replace.

funkless_eck,

what specifically? vaccines cause autism/monkeypox, the democrats drink baby blood, trump won the last/next election, Putin is good because he’s only killing Nazis in Ukraine, forest fires are caused by Jewish space lasers, LGBTQ+ folks are grooming children and Bill Gates wants to put microchips in your brain?

Like — what are you saying, some misinformation is good?

funkless_eck,

Right, so if “gOoGLe iS reCoRdiNg yOu” is false, it makes sense to call that out, no?

funkless_eck,

how do you know it’s a He 😮‍💨

funkless_eck,

ravenous is adjectival

ravenning is the participal or gerund

funkless_eck,

it’s crazy this movie is so well constructed considering each scene was written the day before filming

It is definitely labor. And the only unpaid work I’ve done in 20 years is for showreel, I definitely don’t do unpaid theatre and haven’t since I graduated drama school.

Learning lines (which is unpaid work before rehearsals even begin), blocking (and depending on role: combat, intimacy as is being discussed, music/song, choreography, props and costume tracks) are all pretty hard work. Not to mention 5 weeks of 10 hour days 6 days a week as a standard rehearsal process (all of which is usually done standing and moving, so generally harder physical work, longer hours and fewer days off than an office job).

To say nothing of “hell week” (tech and dress).

For us semi-pros, I’m often doing my day job around roles as well.

funkless_eck,

what the fuck are you talking about? How on earth is something like playing Pozzo in Waiting for Godot, or James Sr in Long Days Journey “emotional prostitution”?

funkless_eck, (edited )

I mean are you using prostitution to mean “pro-stituere” (“ready” “to be sold”) in which case even the most ardent captialist would agree. Or are you making an insinuation that exchanging the brane of labor-time-effort for the brane of exchange-account-value-store is somehow immoral? Because even the most barter-focussed kibbutz or shetl will eventually need to trade some kind of future (e.g. fishermen need boats before they can provide fish, farmers need to survive the winter to sow seeds in spring)

Man reviews Whiskey while his wife is packing her stuff and leaving him in the background (youtu.be)

Here it is. He says “Cindy and I are breaking up” - then proceeds with the review of Laphroaig 10 Year Single Malt Scotch, which he tells us has been his go-to single malt - it’s a “no compromise” Malt, he assures us.

funkless_eck,

it depends. Those foreign to the US are likely to say “yanks” to mean all Americans, but Americans may find it slightly odd to refer to Southerners as Yankees.

In the same way as calling a Catholic from Belfast “British” - it’s true but it could feel a little awkward.
