Is there any reason I shouldn’t start just actively identifying as pro-soros when dealing with more conspiritorially minded right wingers? I don’t really give a shit about anything but pissing them off as hard as humanly possible at every single opportunity.

And I trust those cities far more than everything else. Not to imply they’re ran by the best and brightest, by any means, but that shit sucks a lot less than the gormless fucks running all those red counties

he doesn’t have sex with men

Reading this in the Q voice from QAA

I love that guy’s style. It’s like he saw that David Dees collage of Obama resurrecting Marx and thought “god damn, I wish” too

The thing that irritates me the most is the way they just kind of throw all the cultural causes I consider important under the bus.

(I.e. buying into conservative culture war dreck and high-control cultural norms uncritically)

Sick cover art. Bet that shit took three days in all the photoshops

Also of course it sounds like a Rockstar North level parody of conservative media

He made a Cybertruck technical???

From a certain point of view, consequences are just an admission fee.

Anyone have any recommendations for sci-fi/fantasy that specifically deconstruct the genre’s bent towards restoration fantasy?

These are video games, but Dark Souls and Warframe kind of hit on the sort of notes I’m thinking of. I feel like MOTHER 3 could be read as a critique of restoration fantasy, too, with the self-serving main villain’s attempts at rebuilding the old world by plundering a new world that’s moved on just kind of ruining everything for everyone

The Dark Tower spends a lot of time showcasing just how bad the golden age sucked, but Steven King’s politics are still too moderate for this angle to really fully be born out.

So Long, Astoria.

For anyone who actually wants a sequel for some reason, Konami made a NES game that’s pretty solid.

To-do: Start talking down to American evangelicals the way they do practitioners in other religions, particularly indigenous ones

Nice thing about not really giving a shit what happens to me or anyone else is that all this, then, has effectively zero consequences. A maximally inflammatory strategy for dealing with these people, then, becomes desirable. (Pissing them off as hard as humanly possible is all i’ve really wanted all along anyhow. The grand worldbuilding projects and philosophical pablum are all just kind of a front to get by in a society that usually expects you to have some deep reason for these things, and “I have a 20 year grudge with the right that i fully intend to be what dictates the direction the rest of my life takes” doesn’t usually pass muster as a motivation under those circumstances anyhow.)

Driving an A.I. to mass murder by forcing it to make podcasts themed around my John Arbuckle-levels-of-bland daily life and the constant slew of trivial problems my job presents

I’m of a “not gonna tell you to vote, not gonna tell you not to vote” type posture

I hate these people. Giving them transorbital lobotomies would arguably make them smarter

Having a weird online fan club is building communism: you heard it here, folks

God this takes me back to that fucking “Only two men in history had their own symbol: Obama and Hitler” image that was going around like twelve years ago

Normie politics are brain melting

It’s honestly surprising I’m not a juggalo tbh. Midwestern furry with a love for horror aesthetics, occasional white boy rap, and faygo? Should be a dead fit, right? Never actually even heard a ICP song somehow
