doesn't look like you can be messaged, but I'm definitely planning on getting more involved as we see more of these people push into our neighborhood!

most eight year olds LOVE super limit break abilities being one-upped a hype cycle later by double ultra limit break abilities, so much that they'll study it like a textbook, it's grown-ups who acknowledge it's calvinball and check out

it hardly bears saying considering it's the premise of the article, but amazingly it does seem like a significant number of people were just that confident in option 1.

I feel like the types of difficult skyrim mods are "pack the right thing for every occasion", "learn to navigate five menus to build a fire", and "lol idk enemy numbers are just really high" and in theory I like those fine but they get tedious to me in less time than it takes to install them

for what it's worth I also think this dynamic heavily disadvantages subjects like government in favor of STEM—it's easy to (mis!)judge readings and papers as possible to wing later, whereas math is hieroglyphs if you fall behind at all, plus more problem sets are graded more often.

it's nice to get a perspective on the snare of perverse incentives from that miserable stretch of high school from the teaching side, because while of course I thought about it as a student, there's not enough room for mutual candor on the subject.

I dunno man, we have the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy in our pockets nowadays. ignorance is voluntary, unless they're completely disabled or stuck on some linguistic barrier, people are stupid BECAUSE they're evil

I sincerely do hope we have the wherewithal to hunt filth like this to the ends of the earth soon, on top of the mountains of punishment we have to dole out domestically, but in the scheme of things yeah it really can't be a priority.

the more effectively our preferences are revealed, the more I think we as a public need to not be granted them in at least a few key ways.

it kinda needs to stop mattering what those people think once we actually hold power, though, ICE became a domestic gestapo. we fully punish that when we have power or we have nothing. we can pay lip service to the idea of keeping it on the way there, fine, but heads roll when we can make them.

I'm not sure in what sense I'm supposed to consider someone normal if they're like "hell yeah" to this. that on its own is much more than a slight difference between them and I, and it's more than a slight similarity between them and Nazis. they're numerous, sure, but stunted and evil regardless.

the potential this SHOULD create for an incoming democratic government to crush and remake the judicial branch into something we own for generations is intoxicating. with no legitimacy left for it to lose, why not? I hope it keeps its authority as long as it's our authority

hey, I was that student! one time in chemistry I honestly felt like I was having a heart attack. they should absolutely stop doing that but also the time budget of student life there is messed up, school starts really early, and classes mean you can't afford the digestive impact of coffee. sucks!

but the things we pretend are true today become the common sense of the midwits of the next generation. you accept their bullshit apologies (for some reason?) in this way, and pretty soon a consequential number of people will ACTUALLY believe them

yeah I think we can (and need to) contest fascism's presence in american christianity while being honest about it, and while admitting that is a battle that can be lost. semantics don't matter, they make the rules about the label once they outnumber you enough.

this is how people give themselves the idea that hitlerville kentucky needs to be begged to do the right thing for the thousandth time in slightly different language, rather than marginalized into irrelevance. it's nice to not want to hate your countrymen, but be serious for a second.

the problem here is that people don't (just) want to win, they want to win in particular ways that affirm things about the electorate that they want to believe, which are almost never true. e.g. "deep red voters are waiting for socialism", or "fox news viewers are waiting for real journalism". nope!

I also think that Dark Souls itself had enough "wrong" with it (alongside its brilliance) that it came together into a likeably idiosyncratic package. some of those quirks widely lost their charm by the fourth time they were replicated, and stuck out more as others were removed.

I really do think once higher education is high-quality and equitably-accessible enough in a state, it needs to start diligently rearranging its voting criteria to require proof of understanding of government. it COULD exacerbate inequalities, sure, but what has having no standards done exactly?

yeah, part of the vicious, nigh-sadistic edge of my hatred for these people comes from the fact that they could make me hate them. I wanted to be above that on principle! now basically my only principles hinge entirely on the word "unprovoked", and that's a long fall.
