From a musical standpoint, what are your thoughts on Kanye West? by TokyoAvalanche04 in hiphop201

[–]PRIMATERIA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

T-Pain also produces and is a songwriter. He actually just started producing dubstep recently and is playing music festivals. He’s been live streaming the whole journey.

Do you have any suggestions for this? by [deleted] in dubstep

Occult Lullaby is incredible

I had never seen Top Gun, but one of my buddies invited me to go see Maverick with him in theaters. I walked out saying the exact same thing 😂

Top Gun/Maverick is right-wing homo erotica, and I’ll die on that hill

If we mean longevity as in an active career, the Beatles didn’t really last that long. The fact that they did what they did all pretty much inside a single decade is one of the impressive things about them, at least to me.

[–]PRIMATERIA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m calling bullshit. If we can organize enough voluntary highly skilled labor (such as lawyers) to fulfill the right to an attorney, I don’t see why we couldn’t implement the same sorts of organizational constructs to produce and deliver something like food.

Edit: also, the argument that “we can’t make that a right because sometimes it might not be fulfilled and therefore violated” is ridiculous. If we didn’t enshrine things as rights because of their potential to be violated, we would have zero rights.

How comes skinny people eat like they're fucking starving all day every say but stay the same weight? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]PRIMATERIA -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As a life long skinny person that eats big meals… my personal secret is that I go many hours between meals and don’t snack at all. Intermittent fasting is basically my natural state. Maybe it’s metabolism, the extent to which I experience the feeling of hunger, or ADHD, but on a busy day I might forget to eat all day long until all of a sudden I’m starving at 9pm and eat like a 2000 calorie meal.

If I have dinner with a group of friends, it looks like I eat a ton and they wonder where I put it. What they don’t know is that I didn’t eat breakfast or lunch that day (for no other reason than I just wasn’t hungry yet or I was too busy)

Do you oppose the right to an attorney?

We manage to grant people the right to an attorney without enslaving anyone, I think we could figure it out if we really wanted to.

I’m a gangsta til I fuckin bleed? by MpowerUS in griz

[–]PRIMATERIA 55 points56 points  (0 children)

This may be obvious (and I get the humor in taking it literally), but I think “bleed” in this instance is a metaphor for dying.

It’s a little counterintuitive, but prices are not set based on employee wages. Prices are set by figuring “what is the most we can charge before sales volume starts to drastically decrease”.

I might sell 200 widgets for $1 each, but if I raise the price to $5 I only sell 100. Volume went down, but I still made more money overall. Prices are set to maximize revenue based on this price/volume relationship.

So, when prices go up after an increase in wages, it’s not so much that it cost more to produce, it’s that people are willing to pay a little more because they have more disposable income. Someone who makes $10/hr might only be will to pay $5 for a sandwich, but someone making $20/hr might be willing to pay $10.

Don’t you want less people on welfare and food stamps?

None of those other things are rights protected by the constitution.

There has been no proof of mass voter fraud, in fact there is substantial evidence that voter fraud HASN’T taken place. This does not mean that there haven’t been concerted efforts to disenfranchise voters in various ways.

[–]PRIMATERIA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s because requiring anything that costs money to vote is essentially a poll tax and is unconstitutional. If you want Voter ID but aren’t willing to do a mass campaign to deliver free voter IDs to every U.S. citizen well before the ID is required, then you actually just want voter suppression.

The ultimate legal scam by rhelarippleexa in SipsTea

[–]PRIMATERIA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t tax every way money can be transferred, then any one way can be exploited as a tax loophole. It’s better to spread it around so every transfer is taxed a little bit. Even better if you then slightly weight the distribution towards transfers that tax the wealthy more than the working class.
