1·1 天前It’s like that old adage, I only paraphrase, every story is more or less the same- man leaves on journey, or stranger arrives in town.
I do not subscribe to that bullshit because then every story in the world could be summarized with “something happens, the end”.
Our humanity may stay more or less the same (that’s why we can feel with both men and gods in the Iliad as well as be incensed about contenders on Big Brother, right?), but our circumstances change, our challenges change, our culture changes, with all their peculiarities and specifics that makes fresh voices and takes worth watching, because this particular thing has never been suggested before.
Furthermore you could say the same about music- there are no original tunes anymore because it’s already all been done, right?
Not right.
Meth and coke? Good luck with that ejaculation
DMT springs to mind.
They weren’t doing much for me anyway
Crystal meth cured my autism

8·2 天前I think Behind the Bastards did an episode on this. Basically it started out as a frat drinking event in the offices of one of the kids’ fathers at night, and they decided to do some spooky shit and fuck with people while drunk so they made these costumes and rode horses up and down the streets of the town at night whooping and hollering, pretending to be the ghosts of fallen civil war soldiers or something to that effect.
After some time they built a reputation and pivoted and started doing worse shit.
As far as I can recollect, at least, don’t quote me on it, but basically boiled down to drunk edgy teen incels in bumfuck nowhere after the civil war who decided to start a race war out of boredom and spite.
Go be with your father in his last moment and let him know you love him and always have and will be alright and take good care of yourself and your family.
I didn’t get to myself. I wish you all the love and strength, it’s very hard, my sincerest empathy, friend.

91·2 天前Buy up huge tracts of Amazon forest real estate and carpetbomb it with anti-personnel mines so that nobody can go there, it can’t be illegally logged, and poachers won’t dare go there.
Yes this plan has flaws but can be tweaked.

1·2 天前For a moment I thought I was reading one of my own comments. You’re absolutely right. The threat of AI is not close to as big a problem as the people who own and control it.

7·2 天前Oh god is it that hard to come up with something fresh?
Oh right it’s strictly about milking money, gotcha.
Only time I can remember a “reboot” working was Karate Kid/Cobra Kai but that was way different.
