And people still attempt to "reclaim" totalitarianism as an idea for the left to use lmao.

Extremely funny that Man with a Movie Camera has orchestral score snobs among it's fans when the film actually just is edited like a modern amateur(positive) music video.

Like if you go between the different uploads on youtube with the "cinematic orchestra" score(modern) and a trad score, the trad score comment section is full of people being smug as hell.

People on twitter are acting pleasantly surprised that the Silent Hill 2 remake is getting good reviews as if its not blatant that every single creative decision made for the game is in service of review scores lol.

The most attempted crowd pleaser game design I've seen in a while.

What deadlines lol, every year they don't deliver anything important.

DE has mostly snappy dialogue lol, big blocks of text are used pretty strategically for overwhelming situations or monologues.

I think strictly speaking while Pontius Pilate orders the crucifixion, there's also supposed to be several points where Jesus could have been saved, like when Barabbas a violent criminal is pardoned instead of him at the request of the people.

My gut feeling on the whole reasoning is that partially it's the attitude of like, Jesus is supposed to be of their people but they betray him, while the Romans are acting as occupiers naturally would. And also the Romans are forgiven by reason of adopting and spreading Christianity, while Jewish people remain Jewish.

That's basically the logic that is used for this strain of antisemitism.

Amazing that the grievances have receded into "telling straight women to log off."

Literally milder than telling someone to touch grass.

Idk, kind of phoned in.

All the jokes are references to transfem meme culture but the actual inclusivity is transmasc top scars.

There's variety within any profession like this, at many points in history it hasn't been the norm for normal people in urban settings to cook their own food or have cooking facilities at home, instead they purchased food from people whos job it was to cook.

But there would still be a difference between a business serving everyday people and personal chefs/cooking staff.

You've probably already gone through a night by now but I found that after getting pain and/or tingles in my lower back from doing double heavy shifts in my internship, putting an extra pillow either under the arch of my back, or between my knees if sleeping on my side, did a lot to make it hurt less both while trying to sleep and when waking up.

The public view is essentially that any of the terms for this is basically a stamp that either says these people should be put down ASAP, or if you are liberal minded, it says that they should be locked in a secure facility until non-direct causes kills them.

I would say it's probably not very good to spread the idea of basically ontologically harmful people roaming amongst us.

Imagining a guy who finds a back route into veganism purely by interpreting the refrigeration in grocery stores as cold spots from farm animals endlessly haunting the place.

Finishing up Blowback S5 I'm really struck by how borderline criminally bad the common education is on what the Khmer Rouge ideology was actually based in and how the motives for the genocide was a sort of ethnic renaissance combining clearing foreign influence from the Khmer people with revolutionary ideals grabbed from various places, with the latter part being vague due to not progressing out of the "clearing" stage, so to speak.

Also how underexplained the simmering nationalist resentments between Cambodia and Vietnam are, as well as the dynamic between the communist movements of each fueling the conflict. And I don't mean criminal just because the popularly propagated view is anticommunist, but obscuring how historical events and tendencies developed towards genocide should be criminal within any publicly admissible worldview.

But it is of course most convenient to frame it all as leftist infighting and natural d*generation of revolutions.

Sriracha mayo for the peons and "dijonnaise" for the booug

It's easy to agree in principle, but various traditions as well as the logic of the system of capitalism weigh extremely heavily on us, so intergenerational abuse like this keeps surviving if left alone.

I think sriracha is supposed to be cringe now, sorry.

There was obviously attempts internally as well as the fundamental splits of the PRC and Albania from the USSR on the matter, and the split of the general international movement.

But ultimately you can't just bully the men with power out of power, and the resistance from the people was scattered and able to be dealt with individually in turn, and there were plenty of opportunists prepared to take positions with Khruschev for personal gain or perceived stability.

Criminals and crooks usually find any large scale attention unwanted.

It literally doesn't even seem like it would be a challenge to implement a basic system to handle this, there's a lot of different people/organizations who would be interested in antique valuables and who might even send you out on quests to retrieve them given that it's already supposed to be one of your main occupations and sources of income, and its natural player behavior to automatically go to shops to exchange trash loot for fungible currency.

Just have 1-2 diegetic pach*nko prize exchanges per significant settlement where you can put in all those piles of antique gold coins and crappy armor and get real money for it.

Green bell pepper in chili gang.
