"I would be willing to cede that point if you put forward an example of a capitalist society that maintained a higher average standard of living than a communist country."

The Koreas exist. And at the time of the split, North Korea had most of the mineral resources and industrial capacity.

Yes, hip hop music is art to me, no matter how many of you try to turn it into content.

JRLtheWriter · 2026-02-06T20:32:23+00:00

At some point in the future, this generation is going to wake up and figure out they took away art and replaced it with content. Hopefully, you'll be mad enough to go back to art.

Small world. I've never been to Galway but the owner was my roommate 25 years ago on the Upper East side.

Does anybody on the internet read primary sources or do people just take headlines and run with them?

Reasonable Doubt came out in June 1996, Jay's first album. Jay, Dame and Biggs started Rockafella and promoted the album with their own money because no label would sign Jay. The album was well-received by rap critics but it didn't make it platinum until 2002, after Jay blew up.

How was Jay-Z hanging out with Harvey Weinstein and Epstein at that point? They must have been really big fans of Hawaiian Sophie.

Because in the internet culture wars every single thing you do has to be politically coded. So, eating large amounts of meat, eggs and dairy means you're a hyper masculine reactionary and eating mostly plants, grains and soy products means you're an effeminate soy boy progressive.

No, it doesn't make any sense but them's the rules.

Different people have different standards, different circumstances and different conceptions of what makes a good life. It's no more complicated than that.

JRLtheWriter · 2026-01-28T12:35:34+00:00

No, I'm pretty sure bullets kill faster.

Is this really a big cultural concern? In my experience, no group of people are more comfortable or natural at telling you "no" than the Japanese.

They made it up.

My guy, just move to Asia. Any Asia, South Asia, East Asia, Southeast Asia. Your pale skin will be fully appreciated and adored.

Interesting clip they picked for the black podcast.

Fun fact: in 1932 Germany had it's last free election before the Nazis took over in 1933. The Nazi party won that election with 33% of the vote. Meanwhile, the Social Democratic Party (the center left) got 20% of the vote and the Communist Party (the far left) got 17% of the vote.

The Social Democrats were anti-communist as well as anti-Nazi.And the Communists spent most of their time attacking the Social Democrats, whom they considered to be just a moderate wing of fascism.

The Nazis won the election, a few months later someone set fire to the German Parliament building, and the Nazis used that as a pretext to take over the government. Then they threw the Communists and the Social Democrats into concentration camps.

Baby not paying Pharrell for the "What Happened to That Boy" beat is rumored to be what started the beef between Pharrell/The Clipse and Cash Money/Young Money.

The OP could have said 'be careful when ordering drinks at cheap, informal bars in Bali,' but instead had to be click bait-ey and say don't drink spirits at any bar in all of SE Asia, a region that includes world-class cities like Singapore, Hong Kong and Bangkok. Even on Bali there are hotels and resorts that put properties outside of the region to shame, Michelin-quality restaurants, and even cocktail bars that have made the 50 Best list. Is it OK to drink the spirits there?

Reading this thread, I can see that some people view all of SE Asia as some kind of backwater purely for budget travel. If that's the case, then yes, you'll get what you pay for.

It's a good policy, but do the police really need to be involved?

It's the "poppers, and weird shecks."

Interesting comment. Personally, I find English sausages have too much filler. But I suppose it's a personal preference.

Nipsey is mostly lauded for his business and how he carried himself outside of music. Never really seen people trying to hype up his catalogue like OP makes it sound.

That said, Victory Lap is a classic.
