To be clear, the examined life is not worth living either

AI art circumvents the actual meaning of art at its core. It merely positions it as ‘some good to be sold’ rather than ‘an endeavor into making’.

Upset that books and libraries and working hard are cool now and tv and being lazy are for lames.

Once again tapping the “complicit not incompetent” sign

I want that little freak Curtis Sliwa to get so many of the remaining votes in this election. I actually have a weird soft spot for him and I want him to walk away from this with some credit to the aspects of him that seem genuine and good.

Old ultra-right wing writing loved to paint Nietzsche as a ‘socialist infecting the morals of the populace’ which makes it nuts that he is now often decried for the exact opposite in German history?

God it must be so annoying to learn English as a second language and find native speakers cannot spell anything properly. Like imagine learning words for the first time and you can’t hold conversation because other people can’t spell in their native tongue.

The argument needs to shift in the US to calling out bad policy as ‘embarrassing’ in relation to the world. It’s embarrassing to lack good healthcare versus the rest of the world. Literacy rates, infrastructure, media bias, standards of living, wages: all embarrassing on a relative scale.

I’m gonna be real the thing that I have seen NONE of in the discussion surrounding that one killing in Utah is that he was a muckraking agitator that was useful to bad faith actors. He was not a person worthy of consideration outside of his ability to debase open discussion.

Guy who thinks we’re all complaining about a guy named Al

Lightning hot take but I don’t tolerate Florida slander. Arizona and Utah are WAY worse states and have way shittier people and drivers and music and food. They have awful fucking food versus Florida and no theme parks or culture or anything of value. Florida isn’t even a bottom 10 state.

We need to collectively shed the quiet shame that causes us to deny ourselves and greater truth: frosted tips kinda go hard and we have to bring them back.

Guten Morgen! (Blick von der Bastei auf die Elbe)

Happy birthday Mexico you’re the only country in this hemisphere that I consistently respect :)

Tesla owners don’t have guns so you can just spit on them through their open windows if you want

Denver sucks because half the buildings are brand new but nobody has a/c in their old ass apartment

Nobody ever talks about how it took like one decade for every middle aged American to go from ‘I just think we would support the police’ to completely unmasked ghouls who cheer the suffering of others.

Me watching old WWE matches: “actually it’s Latinx Heat now”

Heard a friend of a friend called a girl his ‘Ramona Flowers’ and I didn’t realize guys actually did that.

Lenny Bruce got arrested 8 times for making jokes about racists in the 60s, but ‘comedy is suddenly illegal in america’.

Quiche but pronounced like ‘cliche’

Slowly correcting US/China relations by forcibly integrating baijiu into every cocktail menu I contribute to
