I live in stark defiance of the gestalt, brochacho. Mainly here to shout into the void/heckle influential people. All posts to be read as emotional outbursts.

I'm openly admitting there's utility in what he's putting out and not everything everyone puts out is what I would describe as ideal.
I am highlighting the character of your recent tweet is tonally different but practically similar to your expressed concerns about his purity in terms of the demographics of people's associates.
I am admitting that I don't care much about either, because neither is the focal point of the content currently being produced.
English
@HughAndFree A "purity test stream" to acknowledge he doesn't call himself right wing, says he's authoritarian econ left and hangs around black trans people. That's wild.
You're openly admitting it's easy to deceive you as long as people say what you want to hear.

Make fun of me for being an atheist liberal civ nat. I'm just going to make fun of you for not raping an innocent, decent patriotic black woman. And who do you think wins that round?
Rhetorically Defective@Rhetordead
You can't complain about white birth rates if you don't support a based white man making kids with her. We used to conquer and rape. Change bloodlines forever. Change niggas names forever. Now look at you. Afraid to rape a black woman to whiten up the joint. You disgust me.

Those who *can* cite something specific-and many can-are benefited from this. You've helped bring them back down to the ground. You've helped them really understand what they want, and to articulate it.
English
You can fake your way through social media videos saying things like "we need to show up" and "it's this amazing energy," but in real life, you have to be specific, and you have to do actual activities.
I don't let clients talk this way during coaching sessions. I stop them when they use phrases like this.
"What does that mean, specifically?"
"What does it mean for your mom to 'show up'? You can't use another cliche. You have to tell me specifically what you mean."
People should do this more with each other. Insist on specificity. If your conversational partner cannot be specific, that means that she doesn't really have anything to say. It means he wants to be "in his feelings" and say things that *sound like* saying something, but are just empty emotional poses.

They're lying to seem deep.
Bepop is the jazz equivalent of 80s shred guitar jacking off during an era where amplification, band configuration, arrangement,and timbral elements were a lot more constrained by the technology of the time. Lots of people think they're "missing" something in terms of not hearing some sophisticated sonic flavor, as opposed to hearing jazz dudes on speed manifest "what can I get away with while sounding a little different" in front of people.
Charlie Parker was a very accomplished musician. Also fanatically practiced very precise sequences of transitions between chords ad nauseam to be able to fit one or two extra altered notes in a line, while technically, technically playing something that hypothetically fit the harmony. If you squinted.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a musician and I like music that is aimed at musicians, but that's because I'm a big ol' nerd.

"not true, I am talentless and dull and I like it"
Why would 100 people kamikaze themselves like this, I don't get it. Why not just take the compliment
garfieldbot@robertlasagna1
The jazz question is simple: it's very fun to play, it's not very fun to listen to. To enjoy listening to it you must have a combination of technical skill and vivid imagination and be able to imagine yourself playing. It differs in this way from other high skill genres, which can be passively enjoyed at any technical level. You can train passive musical appreciation and get more out of classical music, or other complex styles, but not so for jazz, because jazz is an inside joke

@mvaneerde @hecubian_devil It tracks that you'd think a biography counts as evidence.
English
@HughAndFree @hecubian_devil Yup.
From former Women's World Champion Susan Polgar's biography Rebel Queen:
English
Seeing people mad at this from a pro-trans perspective but sorry this is part of building solidarity—you do actually have to explain to people what “connected struggle” means! You have to explain how your oppression can hurt them, too! This is just politics!
English
@TheEuphioAnswer @PostLeftWatch He initially just leaned into it. He made the slavery joke like a month later. In no way was this a pragmatic/shrewd response to fan outrage meant to get himself fired. Which is why it's so goddamn funny.
English
@HughAndFree @PostLeftWatch He mocked Saudi Arabia AFTER he received MASSIVE backlash from his audience. Dillon realized that the $500,000 paycheck was not worth risk losing a massive chunk of his audience. Something that Bill Burr didn't realize. Though Burr gets movie deals and may be more insulated
English
Tim Dillon spent years praising Trump and kissing his ass. Now he's pretending it was always obvious Trump was a corrupt warmongering.
Fuck off.
Marco Foster@MarcoFoster_
Tim Dillon on Iran: “It’s pretty hard to argue that this isn’t a death knell for whatever that Trump coalition was trying to do. Whatever deep state nonsense they were talking about coming on the heels of the Epstein List, which they won’t release the other half of. Any idea this was a group of people committed to any type of transparency, it’s laughable”

@jonny_ques83181 @davepl1968 @Warby_bo_bandY0 This is somehow the most autistic thing said in this thread yet.
English
@davepl1968 @Warby_bo_bandY0 If you actually understand the intent of both people then you should know how to join the argument and end it withhout pissing either of them off.
English
Sometimes I will listen to two neurotypical people argue. And it will seem like they're doing very bad, because neither is saying what they mean.
Neurotypical people don't just say what they want; they spend their time trying to manipulate each other into spontaneously reaching a desired conclusion.
That's when I helpfully interject by explaining what they're ACTUALLY saying to one another. I translate.
And that's when I become the bad person.
Which is why I've (mostly) learned: not my circus, not my monkeys.

@HughAndFree @hecubian_devil Women's chess isn't necessitated by any kind of advantage.
It's necessitated by the toxicity of men in large groups
English
@mvaneerde @hecubian_devil Trans folk are not 1% of participation in women's chess.
Also, transitioning isn't going to take away the advantages that necessitate women's and men's chess competitions.
You're a dishonest weasel.
English
I have, via several comment chains, clearly indicated I understand they can happen. They can happen and also disqualify one from participation.
Once someone has been made aware of the fact that they have such an issue, if one knowingly goes on to mercilessly beat biological women into a pulp in boxing, one forfeits any sympathy I previously might have extended. The same goes for apologizing for said behavior.
No one is defacto entitled to respect.

@HughAndFree @transsexual1ty @beeofstagnancy @hecubian_devil I don't support people who are so dumb they don't understand how hormone disorders could happen
English
@transsexual1ty @beeofstagnancy @RazzleDazzle237 @hecubian_devil I don't entertain people who support male violence against women. You are below consideration.
English
@transsexual1ty @beeofstagnancy @RazzleDazzle237 @hecubian_devil I'm not entertaining unrealities. I'm not catering to your sense of entitlement.
I'm going to assume that's a yes; you are fine with a man viciously beating a woman in ring.
English
@HughAndFree @beeofstagnancy @RazzleDazzle237 @hecubian_devil so you would force your hypothetical daughter to do all of those things?
English
The question is not whether any of these things are vices or potentially harmful for people
It's whether they are acts of aggression, and if government has any right to prohibit or regulate these acts
Should we regulate food since some people eat themselves into oblivion?
Kyle@KyleMatovcik
I see this one hit a nerve. What I'd like libertarians, who I largely consider myself part of, to consider a few things: 1. People go bankrupt and completely destroy their lives due to gambling. Ever since online gambling became legal, bankruptcies have gone up about 30% per year. Is this a worthwhile benefit for clear vice? 2. Sex work is not something any serious person glorifies. Assuming you own property in a neighborhood and have kids, would you be okay with prostitutes on your street corner? 3. Is there any serious person that would debate that mass immigrating changes a country for the worst? A country is not just a place. It's a people and I believe it's wrong to change what a country is, especially against the will of the people. 4. Would you be okay with junkies on park benches and entire city blocks smelling like weed? Some questions to ponder about whether or not "freedom" is your highest good. It is not mine.

@PatrickC1995 It's like you want to live in a nightmare, Dystopian hellscape.

Unironically yes, real capitalism has never been tried.
I will even grant that "real socialism has never been tried" if it means I get to say real capitalism has never been tried without being accused of double standards.

@transsexual1ty @beeofstagnancy @RazzleDazzle237 @hecubian_devil Nah. Do you think a man should be allowed to brutalize a woman in boxing or not?

I don't necessarily think they're wrong; I think they are lying.
I also believe that the careful insertion of the word "new" into your post was intentionally disingenuous. The information we've had on deck is more than sufficient to make the overwhelmingly likely explanation lab leak. I also think you know that.
It would be absolutely insane, nigh inconceivable for it not to be a lab leak. Just so there is no ambiguity? In no world was there a proposal submitted to DARPA by ecohealth alliance for splicing the exact cleavage site into bat coronaviruses only a couple years before covid happened and it not be connected to covid-19. The spike protein was the part specifically that puzzled scientists on how it happened. It was the thing they could not explain. And look, right there, in black and white. There is the proposal. The exact explicit instructions for the sequence were contained in the proposal. I don't know why anyone is attempting to gaslight the public anymore when we have a picture of the shooter holding the smoking gun. We don't need the actual smoking gun because we know who shot it.
And Peter Daszack, wouldn't you know it, was quick to organize scientists to jump on the train and claim that there was no evidence behind the lab leak. He even discussed putting distance between him in the letter by abstaining from signing personally.
Why are you trying to gaslight people?
English
From Day 1, something about lab leak theory has inspired this smug dismissiveness, oozing unearned confidence, from the same ppl over & over. They never point to any new evidence they have and never explain why they think the CIA, FBI, Dept Energy, and German intel are all wrong
Noah Smith 🐇🇺🇸🇺🇦🇹🇼@Noahpinion
Yes, the lab leak theory turned out to almost certainly false.

@transsexual1ty @beeofstagnancy @RazzleDazzle237 @hecubian_devil Hey, that's all very interesting, compelling stuff, and good job at getting all worked up. Very passionate.
We're talking about Olympic level boxing participation. Let's keep it that way.

@HughAndFree @beeofstagnancy @RazzleDazzle237 @hecubian_devil would you pursue phalloplasty for them?
English
@mvaneerde @hecubian_devil Really? Lmao.
Do you personally have any issue with that?
English
@HughAndFree @hecubian_devil Yup, e.g. the Women's Champion of France is trans
English
@mvaneerde @hecubian_devil *shrug* close enough.
You seem familiar enough with this case to understand why Khelif shouldn't have been participating. Neat.
Can a trans woman compete in chess with biological women?
English
@HughAndFree @hecubian_devil > the reporting indicates they left it up to individual countries to provide whatever documentation they wanted for sex assessment or what have you
Not quite. The IOC deferred to countries for official gender for each athlete, but this had nothing to do with eligibility
