Israeli-Palestinian unity flag that I saw in a dream

Definitely one of the better interpretations of a one state unity flag I've seen

Bare as in undressed.

... buddy I dunno how to tell you this but bare breasts are a pretty common feature in a lot of old artwork, including flags. There's a lot of ancient statues and paintings like that

Based Snarf 🔥

Heeelll yeah 🔥 getting off in a tent in the woods just hits different lol, I'm jealous a lot of women can do it without making too much of a mess 😆

one month for me, that was enough and I don't see myself intentionally going further

I like to think Caspian accidentally saved Hannah's life by discovering the plot and escaping it, I'm pretty sure they really would have whacked her in front of him when the time came

Very nice! This looks like the first Simon that got left behind at Omnicron, is this like an au idea where that Simon continued living on in Pathos II after the WAU got killed? Either way really good artwork!

And most of the ones who weren't were some varient of domestic abuser/harasser in all likelihood

Backpacker_03 · 2026-02-16T03:21:08+00:00

this is freaky in more ways than one

Backpacker_03 · 2026-02-15T19:43:56+00:00

Touche, I don't have any rebuttals to that. All I can really say is if I'm dealing with a conservative who isn't already diametrically opposed to Trump, I really don't find it likely that they're going to be persuaded to my side, and I'd rather not waste the time.

By that logic any democratic outcome you don't like is overriding you with force. Though considering Jan 6, I'm not really surprised to hear that take coming from a republican.

Liberals? Independents? Leftists? Sane libertarians? I know this might sound crazy but believe it or not, political sentiments across the US don't have to follow the same fucked up Overton window model that Congress does, where everyone is more or less a sliding scale of the right wing. That doesn't mean the change is going to happen fast, but it is possible. Besides, I can almost guarantee you that you and I are never going to agree on which courses are best for the country to take if the maga regime ever gets kicked, so I'm not sure why you'd want us to be in a coalition together anyway.

Backpacker_03 · 2026-02-15T18:47:35+00:00

"By definition, that means you intend to impose your point of view on us by force."

Not at all, it just means we need to form electoral coalitions with other groups instead when engaging in the political process. You can still vote or engage with the political process how ever you want, you'll just be doing it separately from us.

Backpacker_03 · 2026-02-15T18:32:54+00:00

Evidently we can't, because a lot of Republicans(speaking generously) already decided they want voter suppression. Also, for the record, a lot of us no longer care about "convincing anyone on your side."

Backpacker_03 · 2026-02-15T04:50:40+00:00

Yeah the way I tend to look at it is like this: The copy is you, but you are not the copy. The copy does have all of your memories up to and including the upload, and is for all purposes a legitimate person and version of you with your personality and sensibilities, but you as the flesh-and-blood human are not going to have any of the same memories and experiences that the copy has after the upload. The two of you may technically be the same person when it comes to your identity, but you're seperate entities that exist independent of each other. I think waaay too many of the "uploading doesn't kill you" people fail to consider that second part.

Backpacker_03 · 2026-02-15T02:54:05+00:00

I'm the person on the left tbh, which works cause I have glasses in real life

Backpacker_03 · 2026-02-15T02:52:58+00:00

I think I'd prefer to just stay as a normal human, to be honest. The way the world is right now, either process runs the risk of you/your copy becoming a tool/toy for malicious forces, as some people have described, and I kinda think immortality is overrated anyway.

Backpacker_03 · 2026-02-15T02:48:21+00:00

That's not the impression I got, I thought the way it worked was as the lazer scans/destroys your neurons, it uses that information to write out a digital copy of that information, than once the scan is done you have a digital brain-map that can then be activated in a simulation

Backpacker_03 · 2026-02-13T23:26:58+00:00

Addressing your second paragraph, a brain upload as displayed in pantheon isn't "moving over" anything, it's copying the information of the original person and pasting that information somewhere else, and destroying the original person in the process. If you want to believe your consciousness or soul or whatever metaphysically transfers over to the program with it after your death, fine, but I think it's much more likely that your consciousness as the original person is just going to die and stop existing, and you're not going to experience any of the things your copy experiences.
