@MoncureIvan @collaredshotgun it took though, effort, intent for him to do this. why did he choose a sandwich and not a dryer sheet or a tomato or a dog turd or some ranch dressing or a booger. why the extra effort of including the bread with the lunch meat except to achieve a specific visual aesthetic

@collaredshotgun The idea that art shouldn’t require things like thought, effort, intent, etc is precisely what he is making fun of here. When literally anything has artistic value, nothing really does. It’s a vacuum of taste.

GTA VI being the most-hyped media release of all time is funny. It's gonna be the missions they've had for 25 years (chase down someone who owes you money, rob somebody else, fly a helicopter) while a radio broadcast goes "I got my son vaccinated... and now he's GAY?"

@vStar925 @Nick_Newman RDR2 opens with a 30 minute unskippable cutscene and then when the gameplay starts it makes you watch your guy tediously chop wood for another 15

@Nick_Newman Yeah, Rockstar really needs to reinvent the wheel this time. RDR2 became a slog about halfway through when you realize every mission is scripted as shit and mostly involves following lines and shooting dots.

Palantir CEO Alex Karp on Zohran Mandani: “The average Ivy League grad voting for this mayor is annoyed their education is not that valuable, and that the person who knows how to drill for oil has a more valuable profession” “I think that annoys the fuck out of these people”

Palantir CEO Alex Karp on Zohran Mamdani and NYC: “We’re about to probably have a complete disaster. I was born in New York. “If you asked, ‘do these things actually work?’ Everyone’s like, ‘of course I’m not going to vote for that.’ Instead they ask, ‘does it work in theory?’

@_giacomo_volpe_ "i got mad or scared because i saw a video of a shoplifter online, in a town i don't live in" is actually not a political opinion, has nothing to do with "lefties", and gets you ostracized from conversation not because it's right-coded but because it's toddler-coded

@BarneyFlames Plenty of nations on Earth have/had large aristocracies with similar upbringing methods for their children, yet they did not "produce" geniuses of the caliber we saw from Central/NW EUrope.

One of the funniest things Marxists do is try to explain individual excellence as the result of social forces, but by definition, a social class contains hundreds if not thousands of people, and it lacks explanatory power for the question of why this one guy was excellent

i’m still not over the fact that I had to debate ~15 ophthalmologists. 10 of whom had PhDs, and one of whom was the rector of the country’s largest ophthalmology department.” "you don't know how the eye works, laws of physics(basic optics) don't apply to them" I was right btw.
(☆ ◡ ☆)@lilleethaa

i hate doctors so much you literally have to manipulate them into doing their jobs. i’ve found doctors take me seriously when i act like i am unintelligent and uninformed. they don’t like patients using medical terms. only they are allowed to know those words

@erikphoel Like, the people who were calling von Neumann superhuman had similar backgrounds. He could divide 8 digit numbers in his head by age 6, learnt calculus by 8 and spoke 6 languages. Maybe this is not not just him being privileged and tutored well?

Thinking about how Ratatouille is a film where the antagonist moves on from his close-minded views and learns to defend the new and unusual, and the film has a huge fuckin disclaimer in the credits that they didn't use any Mocap because that shit's fake and not real animation

@edtadros @bayeslord it rocks so hard that christians think CS Lewis is a serious thinker. will be insanely funny if in 100 years people straightfacedly cite Dean Koontz or JK Rowling in theological discussions

Edward Tadros@edtadros·
The answer to this is in The Problem of Pain by CS Lewis. And in on the free Choice of Will by St. Augustine. I could mangle both of these and try to sound smart (or have Grok) summarize it. But the subject isn’t a 280 char candidate. If I were to tell you it is because trials drawn us closer to God I don’t think that would resonate. I could differentiate between moral and natural evil, but it wouldn’t explain why there is a distinction. If you want to understand the Christian view of God in the face evil, those two sources are a solid start. Lewis presents a strong case for atheism (because he was prior) before countering it. I went into them already believer and assuming there was a good reason, so I’d be curious what your take is.

one place I deviate from the christian view of god is around the problem of evil/suffering/etc. either god is not omnipotent or god wants evil and suffering, and things get incoherent quickly if you go down the latter path so it seems god must not be omnipotent

genuinely one of the most evil people to exist in modern history, i cannot stress this enough. he got zero punishment for his actions. caused incalculable harm to entire regions. millions killed, tens of millions displaced and he got to pass away quietly surrounded by family.

@cappropaganda @makeupbyshaniah this doesn't look like a POD copy of the edition; that's a typeface that self-published outlets (and outlets that churn out copies of out-of-print books) use.
