What kind of music do you like?

Who are your guys?

Fuck, marry, kill: happiness, financial wealth, and self respect.

It went from punk/alt rock/grunge to hip hop to synth pop for me, with speckles of all sorts of folk and electronic throughout. MagBay is my current favorite, and my first was Nirvana.

It’s a joke. They are pretending they can’t remember the very obvious/absurd/silly/etc thing, so they have to check their notes before finishing the thought.

I think it might have its origin in courtroom dramas having prosecutors being catty with the defense but that’s just a barely informed guess tbh

I know it’s true and yet he keeps getting me with it every gd time lol

Ummm…no it isn’t. Sorry

So…is Yoru the big bad now? Should we be cheering for fakesaw and “Fami”? Wtf is going on??

I hate you fr fr

Edit: and your parents are disappointed

I have autism and the word is deeply offensive to me. For all of my young life, it was used as a cudgel to single me out and beat me into social submission. It was used to remind me of my place in the social hierarchy (lower than non-retards, obviously) and as a reason for excluding me or treating me differently from everyone else. It’s just as anecdotal as anything else, but I have many neurodivergent friends and family members with similar histories with the word.

Not seeing the problem with something does not mean there isn’t a problem. In this case, it just means that the problem is not particularly relevant to your own life.

And I don’t know why “idiot” doesn’t have the same sting or modern context around it, but despite its historical use, it simply doesn’t hit the same. I guess it could be that it’s not used so explicitly to identify neurodivegence, so much as it is a way of saying someone didn’t/doesn’t think things through, whereas using “retard” is more like insulting someone’s genetic pull. One label can be unlearned, while the other is a life-sentence. Once retarded; forever a retard.

If the n-word was used to describe people acting stupid would you feel comfortable with that? What if no black people complained about it? Would that make it okay? The degree of severity is clearly different because of the historical context, but it is basically the same thing for a different community. A community that, oftentimes, has far less ability to advocate for themselves and far less ability to mobilize en masse. It’s a word that inherently punches down, and using it does shape the perception of our community as well as just hurt our feelings because we are people that can feel and understand when we are being treated differently.

My b for that rant. It’s just fucked up that people act like getting punched in the kidney doesn’t hurt just because they’ve never been punched in the kidney before. That’s not how it works, and if there was a specific word for denigrating you (“you” as in whoever is reading this tbc) I’m sure many people like you would not like being reminded of what negative bullshit the world at large assumes about them based on something they had no control over. Shit fucking sucks, fullstop.

Ugh. Any recs on good and ffre vpns?

This is the track that introduced me to triphop (and psychedelic music more broadly, too). I was visiting my grandma as a wee one and flipping through her satellite TV channels at 3am and this was playing on one of the countless music channels. It got its claws in deep, I tell ya!

In a big way, it helped set me on a path in life and so holds a special place in my heart and memories. Thanks for posting, dude! I needed the nostalgia-bomb today :)

This is such a fun and clever way to strengthen inter-generational community. I would love to see something like this where I live!

As a great and nameless character on Cowboy Bebop once said; “seems that way”.

As an ungrateful little urchin, I would have been pissed ngl. As an adult tho, I can see that this is so freaking sweet and cool.

Remember that one bot that had a saw that spun so fast that it almost beheaded a judge when it was forcefully detached, and then they had to change regulations to make sure it didn’t happen again? They were simpler times back then…

Judging by how things work in our irl 20XX, I’m gonna guess that he has mad stacks if he can produce sentient fighting robots at the scale and speed he does. People with money like that don’t go to jail. They’re not the poors, duh. That would just be silly!

Given his deep interest in sparking a race war and his prolific lying/endless nonsense jabbering, I’m gonna guess that’s something he has said, but that wouldn’t necessarily make it true. He has said a lot of things, many of which are just as garbage as everything else we know to be in his heart.

Buy, hey! Every cloud has its silver lining! He might be a racist, cult leading, serial killer by proxy, but did you know that he was also almost a Beach Boy? They even recorded some of his songs and I am100% not joking. Rely meks u thenk 🤔

Edit: it only occurred to me you may have been talking about Brand after commenting. And I-oops!

Same on that last sentiment, dude. The difference in my own temperament has been surprisingly noteworthy since leaving. It took being banned for me to realize how emotionally dependant I had bec9me on their algorithm.

I’m still pissed about why I was banned, but I am ultimately glad to have left. The bump in my productivity has also been noteworthy. My home hasn’t been this clean in a long while lol

I was banned from a sub for explaining that “globalist” is an anantisemetic dogwhistle. They said my comment was hate speech but left up the one I responded to, dogwhistle and all.

When I asked the sub’s mods about the ruling, I was given a 3-day sitewide ban. I brought it to admins, and instead of any explanation, they responded by making that ban permanent.

I dont think there is any way they don’t know what they’re doing. Reddit is complicit.

I am so dumb x.x

Who is Alice?
