Looking for some peace during the calm before the storm.
Buscando algo de paz durante la calma antes de la tormenta.
PC operating systems obligate you to figure out how everything works, so you have a
decent idea of what to do in most situations; tablet and smartphone OSes are deceptively simple, getting you used to them doing most of your work, so when you get stuck, you have no idea. #PC #smartphones #tablets

Complete Capitalist Bullshit, Obama Bailed out Wall Street and Fucked over Main Street, they could have Bailed out Main Street too they just chose not to. And Clinton's NAFTA and Repeal of Glass Steagall set the whole Housing Market up to Crash. #2008Crash #obamaphilia youtu.be/xbiDrzTd8fE?...

Chan culture, and similar edgy congregations around the net since the turn of the millenium, has arguably played a major role in destabilizing society beyond what most people appreciate.

I can't easily reduce the evidence to an elevator pitch, but if they're not actively orchestrating it, the FIRE and tech industries still benefit from financially bleeding out the proles and petty bourgeois in Blue States, to strengthen Red State fascism and theocracy.

One of American society's curses is that exaggerated sense of individualism which hinders their comprehension of social structures and systems.

I think some of the worst mishigas from chat rooms and social media would be legally prosecuted more, if the median legislator weren't old enough to have witnessed the sinking of the Hindenburg.

Remembering Digital Foundry's coverage of games like Wipeout HD in its retrospective, or even returning to more recent titles such as Half-Life: Alyx or Doom Eternal on eighth-generation consoles, the video game industry has an ignored epiphany. #DigitalFoundry #DoomEternal #WipeoutHD

Two personalities formerly associated with furries, Baron Engel and Vulpes Rex, appear to have migrated to the brony community entirely, with the former being a guest of honor at BABSCON, and the latter sponsoring it. Internet history trivia for today.

Parasocial relationships with celebrities or fictional characters are almost inevitable in American culture, since people are not only increasingly distant psychologically, but also more agressive and on edge towards each other.

Philosophy, politics and economics are as creedal as religion- literate societies ironically seem to last less, because they pursue self-destructive decisions motivated by their ideologies. The analyses of skepticism bros are incomplete without this angle and class conflict.

Many of the "mad at the system" influencers, despite not branding as MAGAs or right wing conspiracy theorists, probably worked for the Trump campaign because they gave 90% of their criticisms during election season to Harris.

Regarding the actual economics of MAGA- it's all cutting services, shoveling money to billionaires, and deregulating industries so they can violate safety, health and environmental standards freely. You need fetal alcohol syndrome to believe it's "populist".

Medium charges a hard paywall for relatively more responsible content (in my estimation), while Substack lets creeps and fruitcakes either set their own subscription fees, or even make their newsletters free.

Outside of HBO or Netflix shows, it seems like the more "adventurous" kinds of adult relationships can end very badly if you aren't sure of what you are doing. Both romance and hooking up require alot of responsibility. #lifeadvice

Cultural horseshoe theory: Sports fandom and geek culture turn out to neatly mirror each other in their predilection for immature, sometimes outright antisocial fratboy-like humor, and a propensity to go bananas when their favorite groups lose in whatever context. #Sports #Geek

The YouTube algorithm has its parameters deliberately set so you always obtain recomendations which could send you down the altright pipeline. No hours of Breadtube, centrist content or debunkings will ever retrain the algorithm by design. #YouTube #AltrightPipeline
