Soo, showing up in leftist reporter Mussolini’s home to debate his current thoughts about a new type of revolution, bringing a gun just in case. I don’t know if there’s any amount of distraction you could subject Benito to in order to prevent him from thinking up fascism. You’d either have to make him realize it’s stupid or kill him.

Addendum: don’t forget to practice with your handgun beforehand, and bring something to smash a windshield beforehand. This is why there were 8 failed assassination attempts on him.

Alright. Just a guess here, but the instructor put the hat on the gator. My thought is that they were attempting to use their hat as an impromptu blinder so they could wrangle it. Instead, however, the gator could still see, didn’t like what was going on, and bailed.

I appreciate the vibe, but this thing would be hilariously incompetent. It’d be like if all the sperm in a cum sock each individually gained sentience and tried to control the sock like a mech. That is to say - it would not be very effective.

I jumped over to logseq. It takes some getting used to, but overall logseq is working fine overall.

Huh, just got done watching “The Free State of Jones” and that checks all these boxes.

I doubt OP’d hold it against that film, though.

Having also been born and raised in the United States and having met a variety of people from various walks of life, I am of the opinion that he hit the nail square on the head. I’ve met kind selfless people, sure, but that is the exception to the rule most often.

He wasn’t, Charles was born and raised in Britain, but later in his career he visited the US for his journalist work.

Uhh, nah that’s not new. Charles Dickens explicitly talked mad smack about how greedy and self-enamoured Americans were, and their general worship of the wealthy. It was a severe kick in the head to his previous conceptions of America being a place of prosperity and opportunity.

It’s mostly just a way of communicating the bizarre nature of infinite series and other problems related to infinity. Just fun thought experiments.

Do you work more than 12 hours to make a basic income? I think that’d be a large difference between wherever you are and the US.

Honestly pretty aesthetic way to write the ‘t’. Bet it feels great too.

The exact line of the preamble of The United States Constitution is “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union,…”

It’s a direct allusion to the United States’ foundational document, and rephrasing that allusion does not make it less nationalist.

It’s also a document which many US citizens strongly identify with, and they are invoking that phrase explicitly to gain rapoire and support from those US citizens. Rephrasing “We the People” would only dilute that virtue signal and lower its efficacy.

Bruh, the noodles are there the whole time. I dunno what you’re on about /s

“jup” can either be “yup” or “hup” depending on which language you’re coming from. It’s definitely a fun spelling of the work though

It’s easier to understand if you say “wish into one hand, shit into the other. See which fills up first”

So you know when people Mick a butterfly with their hands? Yeah, just that one-handed.

Oh woops, flipped em. Good call. Editing

The virile black man stereotype? Not in the US. it’s apart of the myth that black men are naturally very strong and thuggish. It’s also usually paired with the concept of them being extremely sexual (think of the giant black penis stereotype and the constant fear mongering surrounding black men ‘stealing’ all the white women). These are extremely old stereotypes that harken back to when black slaves were viewed in a fashion closer to beasts of burden than to human beings.

It’s because they are in. Performing role. They are taken individuals destroying their bodies to create entertainment for the audience. It’s not different than how the south treats rodeo as some kind of beacon of equality for black individuals. It’s purely a facade to point at when denying the existence of inequality and dismiss civil rights arguments.

It’s also directly tied to the myth of the primal black man - all brain and no brawn. A racist sex symbol.

I know a certain firearms guy who’s pointed out gun culture’s hypocrisy for quite a while (most recent video regarding it).
