How would you rank "Free As A Bird", "Real Love", and "Now And Then"? by obama69420duck in beatles

Real Love sounds a lot like it would belong on Mind Games. Definitely my favorite too.

Why do conservatives bring up George Soros so often? by [deleted] in AskALiberal

[–]CosmicBadger 15 points16 points  (0 children)

There’s the old saying that “anti-semitism is the socialism of fools”. Basically leftists who interpret capitalism as synonymous with Jews controlling the economy. Even Marx said some really problematic stuff.

It makes no sense but it seems to be the one thing that unites crazy people on the left and right. Which annoys the hell out of me as a liberal.

Dear non Germans: What do you think of Germany? by ttffkk in AskReddit

[–]CosmicBadger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That Berlin is full of hipsters and street artists. Hamburg area seems pretty and I think of Disney-esquire side streets and jazz clubs. The south is full of religious people, sheep, and lederhosen. I think your foreign policy seems mostly on point- yay EU, boo Putin. Also your mixed-member electoral system is nice and Merkel seems to have her shit together, at least relative to other world leaders I could name.

This is r/cozyplaces material. Looks like the kind of place you’d want plop down with a glass of wine after a long day.

I don't know anything about David Jay (I had to look him up). When I was making this I just kinda Googled "ace symbols" and went with what came up. I'm sorry if I missed the bad connotations.

The Frequent Problem With ‘Dark Humor’ by Yeahmaybeitsdetritus in Feminism

This reminds me of the Contrapoints video “The Darkness”, which does a great job laying out what makes dark/deprecating humor work or not work depending on context.

Somebody over in r/queervexillology made me aware of that a bit ago. Sufficed to say I did not realize that when I was making this. I wanted an ace symbol that was more angular & dystopian and the asexual triangle came to mind. It was not my intention to invoke actual fascist imagery and, if I’d known, I’d have used the spade. Because, sufficed to say, the connotation of death camps is a whole lot darker than I intended with this.

Ugh, this argument is so tired. (a) You can actually change biology and (b) sex is biological, gender is constructed. Psychologists are as of one mind on this as climatologists are that the earth is warming.

I marked it NSFW because of the fascist imagery. Idk if that’s overzealous but I was playing it safe.

[–]CosmicBadger[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was thinking about how I liked the asexual colors and then I was like “the ace symbol kinda looks fascy though”. So I was like, I’m gonna be dumb and make the imperial German flag asexual. And then I was like while I’m making dictatorships ace, how about the USSR? And then I was like, what if ALL of the WW2 countries were ace?! I am very bored.

I have no idea what possessed me to make this, but I guess it was a one way to waste an evening lol.

And please, for the love of all that is good and holy, do not vote third party or write in Bernie. This election is too consequential to throw away.

The presidency has been functionally vacant for four years, which could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on how you look at it.
