A great movie.

For cusp people, it has more to do with what generation YOUR parents identify with the strictly your own birth date.

The whole song is ironic, if you imagine the singer is supposing a story tale quality to her life. It’s unexpected (and therefore ironic) if I expect my life to turn out perfectly, but then other normal and expected things occur that prevent my fantasy from materializing.

Comrade

It’s called id

Just pop a bike rack on your back plates and you are good to go.

I prefer the term “equiaxial”

Lions mane makes the best paint brushes.

I think the joke is they want to MAKE themselves single, but also that they ACT like they are single. But yes I’d bet the average cheater is in denial about both sides of this shower thought.

This is a lot of philosophy. Pointless in the day to day. But the arguments and ideas eventually lead somewhere.

I do think the discussions of free will are important because it’s a major area that people take for granted. When you ask “what does free will really mean?” you can’t just come back from that.

It’s not a “conspiracy” but rather it’s capitalism. Yes the employers have almost all the power. Without unions or laws to try to level out the power imbalance, the only solution is to keep getting new skills that will eventually make you valuable (as simply a college degree doesn’t cut it anymore). And yes it’s a race to the bottom.

Quota is in shambles

Really, any interpretation of time as a dimension already kind of has this baked in. Where and when aren’t drastically different if time and space are both physical dimensions.

You might have to learn and work slower, and spend more time learning any underlying math, but no, I would reject the idea that someone doesn’t have the mental capacity to code.

I mean a lot of fat people are old. Gain three pounds a year for thirty years and that’s sixty pounds of excess before you’re even sixty.

DARPA and your DMV are not the same thing

Somebody should reboot the Wire. But about Gaza.

ASL peeps should check in on this conversation

I mean, to the last bullet, we have good Samaritan laws. We could totally pass a law that says “grocery stores can and should provide reasonably safe, leftover food to poor people and will not be punished if those reasonable actions result in bad things happening”. You are allowed to just wail on an unconscious dudes chest for minutes until paramedics arrive and then not be sued for the three cracked ribs.

But cmon. We all know that grocery stores know that once people realize expired food is generally safe a) people will buy less food and b) people will show up to get free expired food and buy less food.

Scarcity is a necessity under capitalism. Movie theaters aren’t going to release blooper reels for free. They add them to the credits or put them in the editors cut release. A luxury clothing brand isn’t going to sell seconds, they will destroy or rework material that isn’t sellable.
