Not saying that the word Strawman can't be used well, but usually its just some obnoxious brat spewing logic psychobabble, just work the argument where it is, play the ball where it lies and stop being a little bitch
I'm watching him speak and I'm realizing he has the trait of a real philosopher. The trait is that his mind thinks entirely in logical processes. You can hear it in his speak.
Once you break the barrier into actual philosophy your mind will basically only ever think in logical processes, think like mathematical proofs. The exceptions mostly being when you are day-dreaming.
hopefully the guy recovers
I recently had to stay in the hospital for a few days and was forced to watch cable TV. I really forgot how common it was to see ultra high calorie meals on commercials. I was constantly being bombarded with fast-food like ultra high calorie meal commercials. Boy did I have cravings for something akin to a Baconator when I got out.
There is no way this had no effect on people
How is it that Confucius never had a parable like
It is VERY clear that left and right only ever make sense within the confines of the center. Anytime you move too far left or right you will break the system of controls. The ONLY way you can ever get communism/socialism to work is through a authoritarian government. Meanwhile the left's biggest nightmare is an authoritarian government?
If people honestly wanted a sort of left and right framework it would have to be "masculine" vs "feminine"
I'm seeing more and more posts from people getting fired for social media posts, but I think this extends much further. I think companies are all starting to check people's social media and are absolutely starting to refuse to hire obnoxious people. I think this tend is going to become more prevalent. I also think this absolutely has no limit on people's radical opinions, but rather if you are annoying/ratchet/obnoxious online they are absolutely going to find someone else. Work place morale is a thing and no one wants to hire someone who is obnoxious; a lot of people can be very civil at first but once they become comfortable will start to become incredibly obnoxious.
**EDIT: I forgot to add that with incoming AI advances and standards, it is going to become incredibly easy to comb through someone's digital history.
I found it much easier to just item world stack Killia's items and just let him solo the rest of the campaign, was somewhat disappointing honestly. I beat D1 D2 and D4 and didn't run into this problem on these games, anyone else have a similar experience?
From my experience fentanyl really rots the brain more so than other popular drug of the past; it could easily take over a decade to rehabilitate a fentanyl user's brain back to useful to society status, assuming you can get them clean. It all seems rather hopeless as far as how we are actually going to tackle the homeless crisis
--Maybe AI really will free up so much labor that we really can just ignore all of these problems
To this day this will still drive me crazy, nothing worse than a noizy fly dive bombing near my ears, pretty self explanatory
In this order
1.Dredd
2.Starship Troopers
3.Sicario
Dredd is amazing, probably the best realistic but bleak example of a western civilization future (minus the psychic stuff) this film really makes me feel that we are 38 trillion dollars in debt, the giant mega concrete structures, the return to tribal gang culture? whats not to love.
Starship Troopers is a bit of a guilty pleasure, I have watched it so many times while grinding exp on mmorpgs, Carmen is so ungodly hot, Rico is so suave, and Izzy is so innocent. The teacher/sergeant has one of the best quotes in all of existence "Never pass up a good opportunity" probably the wisest words I have ever heard. Izzy's death grips me everytime.
Sicario is a film where you actually feel the consequences. It really feels like a first person perspective into an American operator taking on the cartels. You really feel the excitement and it feels so relevant to modern USA/Mexico existence. Benecio Del Toro basically oozes charisma and machismo.
If you can't play 3 seconds of a jingle without it being flagged on youtube, its probably time to start policing these click bait titles on youtube. I'm so sick of clicking on a clip that is promising the complete destruction of a person or institution and it turns out its a 30 minute filler piece where nothing even really happens.
The epic space scene up to the point of Anakin cutting off Dooku's head is one of the greatest opening acts in all of cinema point blank. You can criticize the prequels all you want but this act gets my blood pumping every time I see it. When Anakin finally gets his revenge on Dooku by almost man handling him in a 1v1 duel you can really feel him becoming the chosen one; then the look of fear on Dooku's face when he realizes how powerful Anakin has become so quickly and that Palpatine was just using him as a temporary apprentice before Anakin, masterpiece.
I thought it was great and never understood why people hated it. Its a ton of fun and has lots of character development and character arcs, you not only get Han Solo's character arc but you get his girlfriend and his mentor. Its a classic story of how a love that seems promised not being fulfilled can lead someone down the path of rogue.
--It wasn't the most profound movie, but it was a ton of fun, very entertaining, and an incredibly clean story
I don't get outside the house alot so I can't tell the effect so much in real life, but over the internet and social media I swear I hardly see any very overweight people anymore.
It just seems to be a phenomenon that a great series always has to have a crappy ending, must be the illuminati imo
mostly an internet thing, but as soon as someone asks for help or does anything off people respond with "you should seek therapy"
--I honestly I think most people just say this because they want to sound smart.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the word is meant to convey something that is sort of "actually" beautiful? like not something that is beautiful in the eye of the beholder, but something that has a universal beauty
-anyone want to weigh in?
(tiktok and other similar things) Everytime I log off tiktok (im 40m) I literally thank God I never had this a child; I'm nearly 100% certain that this would've screwed my development
