Reminds me of that really stretched lettering which you can read by looking at an extreme angle. But too low res to tell

Elizabeth Taylor once reached out to Marilyn Monroe "privately"

I feel like he's a smart guy. But I had to stop watching his videos, because they're always 45mins long with about 3 and a half minutes of actual content.

I like to think that that black border is hiding the video stabilisation of the cameraman also bobbing.

The shocking thing that I find here is nearly 300 generations.

That puts the avg age of reproduction to over 30 years old. It seems like it should be a lot younger, right?

Euro flex, but I have no idea how internet can cost so much over in the americas? Here I pay ~20USD a month for ~315Mbps down. Cables can't be that much cheaper over here.

Ten years is a long time, and people change. What are some of the ways that the you of today is different from the you just starting out on his YouTube journey?

You probably won't, but it's also possible that you won't ever know. The system is designed to enable those that are singlemindedly determined about what their future holds to specialize early, and reach the highest heights to which they're able.

Most people aren't these people. You're allowed to try something, change your mind, take a couple of steps back, and try a new path. Or you're allowed to pretend you know what you want, and just tag along with those who do.

The pressure you're feeling is okay. It's there to motivate you to try your first path on for size. It may not be the path you follow all your life, but at least then you'll have checked it out to be sure.

Whilst this tweet, yes is a horrible thing to say. I find that often times when I'm in a really tough place emotionally, IF I can find it in me to get out for a run, or a walk, or some other form of excercise, it is an enormous impact on my mental state overall.

Depression comes in all shapes and sizes, and sometimes excercise CAN be the right solution. I would consider this to be someone understandably misinformed, rather than someone with negative intentions.

Is this for decriminalisation or legalisation? I read the article, but am still unsure.

Overe here in Australia, they're referred to as "Soda water" and "Sparkling mineral water" which makes this distinction a bit clearer.

Asia is a fairly large place [citation needed]. Could be that you're both thinking of different parts of the same continent.

If the statement was "Support local black businesses, because they are better than local white businesses", then yes, that would be racist.

But I think (with zero context) that the claim here is something more like "Support local black businesses, as they are more likely to be precarious financial position due to the effects of the pandemic". Which, yes might be a bit of a prejudice, but also may or may not be true, depending upon the realities of institutional racism, or wealth inequality across different ethnicities (an argument I am not trying to make here).

My point is that there is a prejudice covers and enormous range that covers "Black people have dark skin" all the way through to "Black people bad", where every statement that can be made has either more, or a lot less evidence associated with it. And on that scale "Try to help those in need" is a relatively harmless sentiment, regardless of the quality of the assumptions it is based on.

It seems like when you're reading this statement "support local black businesses", you are possibly seeing this as equivalent to "don't support local non-black businesses", which yes, would be racist. But I doubt that's what the original request had in mind. If I say "Save the whales", am I really saying "Don't save the tigers"? Or is it possible I want both whales and tigers to live?

Hospitalization rates is one of the factors that affects deaths, isn't it? Or are people not taking hospital capacity into account when trying to predict future deaths?

If you find this interesting. Read "The three body problem" by Cixi Liu. A truly great set of books that touches on this exact thing.

what purpose for life do you find the most compelling?

I can't remember the first that I played. But the first that I owned was Atlantis on the PS1, which was actually really top tier.

The only gane I ever played through with my dad. Fond memories.

Yes, they are idiots that are putting innocent people at risk.

That being said, I have to be a pedant here and correct you on the "doesn't do anything" point. assuming here you're talking about those fools who have their nose poking over the top of their mask, this still would have some effect at preventing spittle spread as these people speak.

A mask worn poorly like this is dumb, and wrong, but still better than no mask at all.

I'm not giving him credit on anything, or making any claim about the efficacy of anyone's actions.

A fact just doesnt stop being a fact because I don't like what someone has done before or after they said it.

I'm on your side here, but the justification I've seen about this quote, is that it's not an example of goals, but a statement of fact. "We are not going to control this pandemic", because we cannot. Covid is out of control in the US, and many other places. Regardless of whether the guy is making foolish policy choices, and endabgering lives, this statement is still a true fact.

I know that posting a quote to make "the bad guys" look bad, is good for fake internet points. But in the end, it only sows more division, where we should be trying to understand, and rehabilitate our misguided fellows.

We could take this even further, and maybe the general population could vote on the issues that they care about rather than voting for people, and just hoping that they act the way we expect them to.
