"Yeah... but... is that REALLY worth the price of being born with... UNCONFORMING THOUGHTS?"

-some idiot, probably.

The end result of the internet's obsession with conflating negativity with realism. There is no bottom to this.

It seems that the response to MAGA conservatism taking up the habit of actively denying nuances to suit their biases is to emulate it.

Nuances in current events, yes, but also historical ones. The founders and MLK are popular subjects.

"We're in an emergency! The federal government is compromised and making attempts at elections, we can't afford to think anything could possibly go back to normal!"

Let's try voting against the guy and party doing this

"Hold on now, since I was a kid, it's always been their job to earn support!"

Universal comics law: Physics and even logic need not apply to one who does not understand them, especially in relation to what they attempt to do in the right situation.

JIM HENSON started the show “Sam and Friends” in 1955 whilst a 19yr old Freshman at the University of Maryland.

Here he is with the puppets from that show including an early version of Kermit.

Like NFTs and Gold rushes, the only money in AI is selling it and its infrastructure, not using it.

"Some of you may die but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make."

They probably think a good war is their ticket to easy approval because of their extremely limited understanding of both world wars viewed mostly through the rose-colored glasses of the propagandized media surrounding them

The double-sin of glorifying the past and denying its nuances simultaneously

Detox post:

At my local grocery store, they lobster tails at the meat counter, apparently a bargain at $25 for 2.

Finally made that impulse purchase, found a simple recipe for broiling with salt and pepper.

Didn't have any lemon and kept overcooking the butter, but really good! Nice and juicy.

‘Chikn Nuggit’ creator Kyra Kupetsky announces her departure from the show after BuzzFeed made a requirement to feed the show to AI.

“I am very anti-Al and cannot support this. Thus I am leaving to boycott this. I am so upset it's come to this and I cannot apologize enough for this happening.”

MAGA in revolt:

"Abolishing human rights, federal oversight, scientific and educational standards were supposed to bring us prosperity like the world had never seen! Not disastrous fascism! Who could have guessed this would happen? WHO?"

People who voted for Hillary and Kamala: 🙄

They've been blasting the fallacy that billionaires contribute to the economy through employment for years. This ignores a lot of basic realities like how they always downsize when they net more profits through tax breaks and the number of big-business employed Americans on food assistance.

The media has always insisted on false equivalence for the appearance of impartiality, but since he's so irredeemably awful in every way, that basically amounts to glazing him.

Because "Energy independence" means total dependence on a hoardable, increasingly scarce fuel source, for some reason.

90 million didn't vote, when fascism needed only 70 million to win makes the voters look bad.

"Republicans have no agency. Therefore, all fascism is the fault of Democrats, their opposition, for being unable to stop them."

This fallacy's played out, and you're the only one who doesn't know here.

"You don't care about the brown children blown up by Obama and Biden!"

But... there are literally... a school was targeted and blown up by Trump here and now!

Some people really did have it too good for too long, critical and even agile thinking has been eroded by years of "being right"

I would say that you only care about the murdering of brown kids when it fits your agenda, like how you make no mention the school Trump bombed,

But lets face it, you don't even have an agenda. All your grandstanding is out of habit, you justify suffering in the present for no reason. You're hollow

The anti-democrat "Leftists" are really proving that they prefer to deny realities that conflict with their biases, even as reality happens right before their eyes

Talking about Obama's drone strikes when in his first term, Trump did more in both of Obama's before classifying information on strikes

They love to ignore realities that conflict with their biases, like how in his first term, Trump did more drone strikes than in both of Obama's before making it unnecessary to report drone strikes.

Like how Biden gave the railworkers what they wanted, but they only focused on the strike breaking.

That's why he thinks it's okay to say that he wouldn't do anything different. He WAS treated as righteous and justified by popular opinion, at least on spaces like this,

...but apparently, the thing nobody can predict is current events being so blatant that even popular opinion does an about-face.

Lots of people like to mention how "some people want to watch the world burn"

But how many people are prepared to talk about the number of people who would actually stop to consider the options if they had to choose between the world burning and being wrong?

It's pretty much a given that the worst part of any body of media is it's own fanbase. Before, it didn't draw attention because it was just a bunch of freaks in their own personal hells, but with Indie Animation, the creators need to be more connected to the community, and that has risks.

To echo the sentiments of G.K. Chesterton, fairy tales do not tell children that monsters exist — because they know that already. But rather more importantly, fairy tales tell them (and us) that the monster can be killed. And such stories must never ever go out of fashion.

What an awkward position, especially in the context of current events,

On the Right, they believe Democrats are too harsh on Trump, and on the left, they think Democrats aren't harsh enough on him.

Hindsight is the only true perspective, but unfortunately, it only comes after the fact.

"Do you want this to be a nation by the people, for the people, or not?"

Apparently, they don't if it requires some kind of obligation on behalf of said people. I'm not exaggerating when I say that this is a literal Homer Simpson take.

Oh...! THAT'S why they want WB so badly, to scavenge it in an attempt to stave off their own financial desolation.
