Sylence

I use JS and TS semi-regularly and got 5/28 🤡

Regular psylocibin usage helps me maintain perspective a lot.

FYI it's called Czechia now :)

I dunno, I think there's an argument to be made that a life without some challenge, striving, and failure isn't a well lived life, but I also absolutely think that societally mandated toil for 1/3 of one's waking hours in order to survive is not the way to build a healthy relationship to that idea.

Hard work for its own sake or for self-fulfilment is not a scam and can be very rewarding. Hard work as a means to escape systemic inequality and poverty cycles absolutely is.

Time Enough for Love was my favourite book as a young man. Tried re-reading it recently and really struggled. I feel like the last 20 years of social progress has really dated Heinlein's language especially (less so his ideas). Was a shame.

Joker 2 Electric Boogaloo. I thought it was well made, thought provoking, and a good critique of all the chuds who idolised the first film for the wrong reasons.

The Alters just released, is AA, weird, and very good! Indies are definitely the home for weird experimental shit but I feel like there are going to be more strange, niche games being made for larger budgets as the AAA space splinters and devours itself.

This was going to be my counterexample too. Millions protested in the US, UK, Australia, and elsewhere before any troops were committed and it still didn't help. I dont have solid numbers but I'd be shocked if less than 3.5% of people were involved. They were the biggest protests ever at the time.

The overt commodification of literally everything coupled with a general population struggling to make ends meet.

I tried to watch it again recently and it looks like absolute trash. I appreciate directors being experimental but at least with old analog formats they scale pretty well with modern resolutions.

He's sucking, not blowing.
