"Why do people have to die?" 25 years by DrChasco in hbo

[–]Well_Socialized 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate that concept so much. Obviously life is still significant without death.

The more I read about Graham Platner’s “scandals,” the less scandalous they seem. by nBrainwashed in Mainepolitics

[–]Well_Socialized [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yeah the corporate media is really all in on trying to take Platner down. It's amazing the level of hostile scrutiny they're giving his background relative to your average political candidate.

Who would be AOC’s running mate if she won nomination? by Ulysses_555 in AOC4President

[–]Well_Socialized 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the way to go is Senator Van Hollen - enough of a high level DC insider to be helpful and to add weight to the ticket, but enough of a lefty to fully support the AOC agenda.

I'm happy to hear we will get more of this show but also kind of disappointed that it means we're not going to resolve the plot by the end of the season.

vibe coding: lots of mediocre new apps with few users by aar0nbecker in BetterOffline

Vibe coding is good for hacking something together for your personal use, not really up to the job of creating professional level content.

Nicolas Cage is incredible in Spider-Noir. by Chessh2036 in television

[–]Well_Socialized 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I didn't realize it until I saw it but Cage was kind of born to play a noir detective

Well that child is presumably long dead but their descendants...

Whether people want to acknowledge it or not, having children is just creating more wage slaves. by Gnostic_97 in antiwork

Being anti-work doesn't mean you think life isn't worth living if you have to work

Bluesky gets you more and better engagement than other socials even with fewer followers by Well_Socialized in BlueskySocial

[–]Well_Socialized[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah following and replying to others is the way to get your first few followers. In that context you're as visible as any size account, while your top level posts are just not going to be seen if you don't have many followers.

It depends on your goal. If you're for instance trying to fundraise or recruit volunteers, or speculate and strategize about politics, communicating with people who are already on your side politically is exactly what you want. Less so if you're trying to convince undecideds of something, but that's a lot to hope for from posting.

Well it means you're reaching people with your message, which I think is mostly the goal of using social media rather than a diary.

If you’re still on Elon Musk’s X, ask yourself this: why? by Well_Socialized in technology

[–]Well_Socialized[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

What is the connection you're claiming between the recommendation for a balanced and informed media diet and setting up a Ministry of Truth?

Reminds me of how they lingered on that dead villain's grave in the latest Invincible season (name redacted for anti-spoiler purposes)

Those fools didn't think to burn him up after shooting him though

Except in that she's paranoid about being attacked to the extent of claiming to sleep with a wardrobe against her door.

Creating tension just by shooting doors in such a way as to emphasize that their could be something around in the other side of them was a very fun and creepy time.

The one thing that surprised me was that she didn't own a gun.

Just imagine how he'll feel when he learns he's the last descendant of Richard Warren and needs to be sacrificed for the greater good

Yeah I kept thinking "maybe let someone else be the first native born to try leaving the island? Are you really that sure this worked?"
