how fucking arrogant can you be to think any eugenics program could ever weed out “fascist genetics”. even if the “dark triad” was a reliable precursor to fascist ideology and even if “dark triad traits” could be reliably linked to genotype (they aren’t and they can’t be), how fucking far to jupiter are you if you think you can remove it from a population of seven billion, let alone in some “anarchist” manner? how do you programmatically sterilize anyone in an “anarchist” manner?

As a Jew I wholeheartedly believe that, folks who are pretending nothing is wrong and Palestinians aren't being murdered every day would have absolutely ignored the Holocaust and let my folks get killed without blinking an eye.

Americans have a lot of heroic fantasies about what they would have done during the Holocaust or chattel slavery, and the answer for a lot of them is absolutely nothing. They would have complained about the people actually doing things for being too disruptive. We Jews did the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, and they would have called this terrorism. They would have also complained about MLK and Malcolm X, the former of which took the economies of entire cities hostage. Modern day disruptions don't hold a candle to historical disruptions.

In a two of more decades, people are going to use excuses like "I didn't know!" or pretend they were supportive all along, making tear jerking films about the Palestinian plight. We need to not let them do this.

Thinking about when CG was used exactly one time in the entirety of spongebobs pre-movie 3 season run

Like, they could’ve easily just had him instantaneously burst through the wall and get roughly the same joke across, but the fact the writers wanted him to slowly push through the wall like that SO BADLY that they went out of their way to implement the cg effect to do so is so fucking funny to me fndmmsmsms

"Not beating the ___ allegations" is such a 'now' turn of phrase, implying as it does a world where everyone's behavior is always on literal trial by a guilt-presuming judge and jury that consists of anyone who happens to be paying attention.

there is no 'base accent' so like all of this is entirely subjective tbc, just based on what people around you say and how you think you sound

pick whichever language you want to answer in if you're multi-lingual

#I dont know what to judge the thickness of my accent in comparison to #I have a thick american accent with a slight southern drawl #is. that a normal level of accent??? I dont understand.

the stuffed crust industry is unduly dominated by cheese. we NEED pizza crusts stuffed with other substances (eg ranch, pesto, hot choculate, warm water, etc) NOW

A lot of people have taken Caine's "if I start losing track of who's a human and who's an NPC, who knows... what could happen..." line as a hint that a member of the core cast might actually be an NPC, but I kind of think it might imply the opposite?

Like, Caine doesn't seem to care at all about the NPCs or their well-being, but he does seem to, in a weird roundabout way, care about the humans. (Unless they've abstracted, in which case he basically loses all consideration for them, but...)

At the beginning of episode two, he's practically desperate for Zooble's approval, and in episode one he says he built the fake exit specifically because he thought the humans would want one. He's generally affectionate and polite to everyone, even if he's oblivious to all the horrors he creates.

And, when Caine says "who knows what could happen," he looks and sounds afraid, in a way that he just wouldn't be if he might've lost track of an NPC. No, I think he might have lost a human at some point. They didn't abstract, they were just forgotten, and that actually bothers him.

So as it turns out James Somerton did in fact fake his suicide note, and did a bunch of other stuff in the meantime

🔥🔥🔥 tell me eevehtnjgn

(concerning the "send me an ask for an unpopular opinion" post)

"Rawr Xd" is not cringe, Awesome Face and Trollface are not cringe, lolcats are not cringe. Is it cringe for a child to play with toys? Is it cringe to make mudpies or throw snowballs? We don't have to pretend everything we don't do anymore was just so embarassing. Sometimes, it was fun.

[pingwen]

Send me a “ 🔥 “ for an unpopular opinion.

Bonus points if you include a topic. ( IE. shipping, roleplaying, ect. )

Yeah you'd think that, but it actually turns out God just looks like Dory from Finding Nemo. Completely harmless little fish thing. It's... massively underwhelming

So many good text posts ruined by the unnecessary inclusion of some stupid quip about fighting/killing God
