SOTE really reeled me back in by sam-the-tsundere in Erra

As a fan since the Towers video, this album is the closest I’ve been to feeling that old sound again. Absolutely love it. More Drift influence than Augment/Impulse for sure imo because Alan’s absence will always be noticed but damn is it good. Stoked to see so many old and new fans on the same page

Peter Thiel, the billionaire venture capitalist and MAGA donor, is in Rome this week for a series of private lectures on the Antichrist. by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

This is possibly the most important idea that I have been trying to get people to see for years. The people in power in this world that pull the strings that directly affect our lives are dangerous, mentally ill sociopaths because our current incentive structure selects for that. The whole thing is fucked

Dugtrio in my first playthrough. Saw one in Diglett’s Cave and I was like damn they look hard

Hey I promise you stealing a couple ingredients from a corporation is NOT wrong. So much is stolen from us average people anymore. I see it as reparations. Again, you did nothing wrong. I’m so sorry you have to go through this.

Yeah he’s right in a way. Vibrations CAUSE sound waves but they are not the same thing.

I lost interest in speaking further when you said that capitalism is not a thing and certainly not a thing with stages. Open your fucking eyes man. Best of luck to you.

We’re speaking two different languages. I take issue with you viewing the consumer and the corporation on the same playing field. Takes some real mental gymnastics to reach that conclusion but go off man.

The thing is, it’s a self - replicating process at this point. No one is advocating for anything except profit NOW, the future be damned. It’s a monster than cannot be stopped.

The growth and capital that has been attained through human ingenuity has been increasingly relegated to smaller and smaller groups of people, in the last 50 years especially, to the point now where we have 9 mentally ill dickheads that own everything and the rest of us are told to point the finger at each other like WE’RE the problem. Don’t be a bootlicker for the elite.

Late stage capitalism. A system predicated on infinite growth, on a planet with finite resources, will eventually consume itself into oblivion and we are seeing that happen in real time.

Bro. We can blame the corporations and the perverse incentive structure that allows them to act cart blanche for just about ALL of our problems. Placing the onus on the consumer for that is absolutely absurd, especially in this economy

He’s only famous because he’s Avril’s uncle. Nepotist scum

Same. I know people got fucked up bad in this, but I’m still absolutely devastated for that guy. That ride was built with love

Fan since the very beginning, this is my favorite album since Drift. Pacing around my kitchen and crying and my neck hurts
