animals in nature have more cross-species altruism in them than the average person raised by 4chan has for /other humans/. That's not normal. Nature itself works by different laws. Humans are not inherently cruel and hate is not supposed to feel good. Making you think it does is a grift
briefly fell asleep at work and had a micro-dream that Nardwuar posted a series of videos sneaking up on musicians while they were asleep with a friendly pig who would snuffle through their hair
The news only gets worse. It's confirmed that what they were doing is actually state policy, and Benjamin Netanyahu publicly apologized for ever charging them. www.middleeasteye.net/news/i-wishe...
I wish I could perform all these disparate parts of me in a way that was somehow broadly "acceptable" in at least one of the communities I've attempted to involve myself with, but failing that, I wish they weren't a part of me at all.
You lose contact with people you thought you were cool with for no apparent reason, you see people who are absolutely not cool for a *variety* of reasons get celebrated, and you wonder what the criteria is, why it's changed, or if it's always been this way and you were too ignorant to know better.
I used to have a very "who gives a shit, I'm just gonna be myself" approach about it, but it turns out a loooot of people actually gave a shit and I was just blind to it.
Like, you'd think there's *some* community where I'd be able to slip into a comfortable place and feel like an actual part of a whole, but too many niche interests at the fringes, all seemingly at odds with one another, seen to keep me from ever feeling at home.
Man, this is the first time in a long time I actively wish I was wired differently.
My coworkers started talking about nuclear war, and I've just realized I'm stuck in a room with the 2 stupidest people on the planet
"What will you play?"
"'Ze Murder of Gonzago.'"
"Full of fine cadence and corpses?"
"Pirated from ze Italian."
"What is it about?"
"It's about a King and Queen..."
"Escapism!"
"We already have an entry here, and always have had."
"You've played for him before?"
"Yes sir."
"And what's HIS bent?"
"Classical."
"Saucy!"
"Zhey know nozhing of zhat, and you know nozhing of zhem, to your mutual survival. So give him a good clan show suitable for all ze family, or you can rest assured you'll be playing ze tavern tonight."
"Or ze night after."
"Or not."
"We are counting on you to take him out of himself. You are ze pleasures which we draw him on to.
"A-and by zhat I don't mean your usual filzh! You can't treat royalty like people wizh normal perverted desires."
"And so here you are. Wizh a vengeance.
"Zhat's a figure of speech... isn't it?
"Well, let's say we've made up for it, for you may have no doubt whom to zhank for your performance at ze court."
"Brilliantly re-created. If zhese eyes could weep!
"Razher strong on metaphor, mind you; no criticism, only a matter of taste."
"We took off our crowns and swords and clozh of gold, and moved silent on ze road to Elsinore."
"*clap... clap... clap...*"
"No one came forward. No one shouted at us. Ze silence was unbreakable. It imposed itself upon us.
"It was... obscene."
"Even zhen, habit and a stubborn trust zhat our audience spied upon us from behind ze nearest bush, forced our bodies to blunder on long after zhey had emptied of meaning, until like runaway carts zhey dragged to a halt."
"and all ze while ze murderous King addressed ze horizon wizh his dreary, interminable guilt... Our heads began to move, wary as lizards, ze corpse of unsullied Rosalinda peeped zhrough his fingers, and ze King faltered."
"It was not until ze murderer's long sililoquy zhat we were able to look around; frozen as we were in profile, our eyes searched you out, first confidently, zhen hesitantly, zhen desperately as each patch of turf, each log, every exposed corner in every direction proved uninhabited..."
"We're actors... We pledged our identities, secure in ze conventions of our trade, zhat someone would be watching. And zhen, gradually, no one was. We were caught high and dry."

And this is why you do not, under any circumstances, waste your time trying to reason with right wingers. They are not here to learn. They are here to waste your time and hope that you get angry - because the right wing have no joy and want to bring you down to their level.
Block fast, block often.
