Back in the 60s, Phil Ochs described a liberal as “10 degrees to the left of center in good times and 10 degrees to the right if it affects them personally”.

I agree that most people understand it to mean anyone left of center, but the meaning of a weak or disingenuous leftist who often sides with the enemies of the left goes back a while.

Wooo! IEC type I! Shoutout to the greatest!

North and south are fundementally different, climate and biosphere -wise, so i don’t think it would ever make sense to people to modify the same word to describe two very different things. East and west maybe less so, but dawn and dusk are pretty important differences.

Some polynesian cultures use two main direction words, which usually translate as something like mountain-ward and beach-ward.

You gotta “nor-nor-east” instead, that’s a blast.

This kind of useless performative busy-ness is one of the stupidest forms virtue signalling.

I hear that lethal projectiles are very slimming.

That outfit is straight fire though.

Overalls are always sexy AF, the knee-high rolled cuffs show off the ‘too cool to give a fuck’ combo of socks and slippers, but the shirt’s on the opposite side of the color wheel for maximum contrast, and the yellow hat adds to the cartoonishly cheerful look.

It’s an outfit that screams both “look at me!” And “lol i dgaf”. I would absolutely wear the hell out of that outfit. I wouldn’t accesorize it with a handgun though.

The catholic church would absolutely use sainthood to whitewash the legacy of a rapist, but i’m sure that position has plenty of promising internal candidates.

My favourite atm is that kirk’s wife had him killed.

In reality, an open elite controls world governments and economies.

Yes fapiao culture!

The bar i used to drink at in SW china would write fake receipts for business travellers. The one time i was there for it a dutch guy came in, bought an expensive bottle of maotai for everyone to share, then the owners wrote him a receipt for twice that much. The patrons got drunk, the bar got paid and the guy got to steal from his company.

Just your classic win/win/win.

Humans are social mammals. In many important respects, it makes no sense to even think of us as individuals.

I suspect that in the past people with higher levels of social anxiety probably just spoke a little less than average, and noticably less on the much less frequent times they met strangers.

But i think it’s its probably very inaccurate to imagine anyone who we’d recognize as an “introvert” in the much more collectivist cultures that dominate history.

It’s the I-don’t-care-who-started-it injustice.

Often people in authority will see injustice and respond as if the real problem was that everyone else disturbed them, failing to even attempt to actually understand the situation first.

This is because power has been shown to cause changes in the brain that make you less capable of empathy.

I guess we must’ve liked it.

Since we put a ring on it.

To be serious for a moment, he doesn’t believe that for a second.

He’s just bullshiting to further the false narrative that his fascist regime is pushing as they continue deploying the military against the american public and other opponents of fascism.

I blocked like that on reddit but here there’s fewer users so I have a higher block threshold.

Plus I want to give people credit for choosing to be on the fediverse - that earns almost everyone a “well maybe you just had a bad day”.

Oh! I never got that expression. But I’m a loud and proud type. With so much misery in the world it seems wrong not to revel in the joy of a good fart. Like throwing away dinner during a famine.

Wait she farts sideways? Like it comes out of her hip? That is news!

Save getting answers from the creators themselves

Is there a reason you’re not doing this? If I made income from you tube I’d want someone to draw my attention to this.

I’d think that a “hey, I noticed this weird thing, is that you delisting or is yt being shady?” type communication would be appreciated and help flesh out the picture.

I don’t put much stock in business astrology grifters myself 😆. But I definitely agree that we adapt our behaviors to the people we’re with and situations we’re in. And that how we want to be seen by others and the expectations of others both have a strong impact on the behavior we exhibit. I would strongly disagree with that last third though - we are always who we really are.

The behaviors we’re reluctant or incapable of changing around others are no more us than the behaviours that we have stronger insight into and control over.
