I’m proud of myself for not spending the next two hours listening to companion banter
Oh shit. I was gonna say Fenris…
Sidebar, should I watch She-Ra? How’s the politics?
Because they’ll still largely be liberals that think the system can be reformed, material conditions haven’t deteriorated enough for anything else. They’re also far less white and way more LGBT, so they won’t be Republicans unless a sea change happens in that party. If you’re not a Republican in the US, you’re a Democrat, at least socially.
Joe biden is millennial and gen x nostalgia, they just need their own Obama and they’ll go back to brunch, just like the millenials and gen xers that stood against Bush went back to brunch while Obama continued the wars and drone struck US citizens.
E: also the American firewall and tik tok ban will prevent the narrative from spinning out of control again as it did with Palestine
Nah. Who would fight it? Aging white Republicans vs. multiethnic pacifist zoomer and gen alpha Democrats? The Dems are more than happy to roll over for whatever the Republicans want and their base will only hold signs and engage in disorganized civil disobedience. I can see full-on transgender genocide, as our existence can be legislated away with relative ease, but Democrats won’t care any more than they cared about the gay genocide in the 80s, and the incarceration of those that illegally seek meds will be bipartisan
All the Trump shit will do is rile his base and make the dems more complacent, right?
Regardless it’s funny. And it’ll be great watching the dem meltdown when he serves exactly 0 days behind bars. They’ll still proclaim it a symbolic victory ofc
Communism couldn’t happen in a world with capitalism, or at least socialism would need to be as entrenched as capitalism is nowadays. I agree that it would be achieved through reform, not revolution. Late stage socialism will just bleed into communism, there won’t be some indelible line separating the two
I mean, you can find jokes about the US healthcare system in season 1 Simpsons way back in the 1800s.
Reject modernity, return to dial-up and 90s usenet groups
How do you feel after finishing the Chinese course?
Do you experience false awakenings or sleepwalk? Is your dreamscape consistent? And do you have chronic pain? Just curious, don’t meet people with similar experiences often
CW abuse
My girlfriend has night terrors like yours; feeling extreme pain from torture, like being buried upside down in a metal tube filled with ants in the middle of a blazing hot desert, having to relive seeing her loved ones being tied and beaten in front of her and ofc the same happening to her and worse, just really fucked up shit in general. She wakes up several times a night crying, although I sleep heavy, so that only occasionally wakes me. I have nightmares too also related to PTSD, but I’ve thankfully never once experienced pain or anything like that, just the feeling of extreme terror and reliving a similar experience, like having to go down into the basement with my dad, people kicking my teeth in, etc. We both use cannabis, as it’s proven to help PTSD night terrors; I highly recommend it.
We “joke” about an entity like you describe, actually, and call them dream wasps or soul bees, because, well, they appear as wasps in her dreams that eat her brain and generally just destroy her body in ways I can’t describe without getting very NSFW. After learning about this I had a dream about a wasp randomly flying up my nose and have had similar dreams ever since lol, although it’s rare, because cannabis stops my ability to even have dreams
They’re out to brunch when the dems have power
How much more useful is it? I’m paying for chatgpt, because it filled the role old search engines used too, but that’s garbage nowadays as well.
Thank you, what an interesting movie! Wasn’t expecting Pepe to just start capping coppers. Really good politics, too. I initially side-eyed how black people were drawn, but then a ton of black people weren’t drawn that way, none were caricatures, and a villain was depicted as being racist against black people. Do you know of any other Cuban movies with a similar feel? Or just Cuban horrors worth watching?
