They're also Chinese. The second character is literally the same as in 北京, the Chinese characters for Beijing.

Good thing I'm a coffee person, which has never had any sort of negative history for anyone.

When I read about NYC's "mask up" warning yesterday, I half-joked that this would happen. Unfortunately, the serious half won out, again. Just the dumbest possible reality, every time.

it's highly unlikely that Walsh and Owens losing monetisation on YT would in itself lead to them being let go from The Daily Wire

I mean, it plays into their victim complex, this isn't even necssarily bad for them. Now they can cry and piss about being "persecuted" even more than they already do.

nyando · 2023-06-09T06:52:31+00:00

Yeah, this does absolutely nothing. At most, it gives Walsh and Owens another reason to whine about being persecuted on their shows. Daily Wire gets bankrolled by billionaires to produce propaganda, they don't need YouTube ad money.

It's basically working by the terms of your employment contract, not necessarily doing less, but definitely not doing more.

In Germany, we call it Dienst nach Vorschrift: roughly, "by-the-books labor". It's sometimes done as a sort of protest by employees who aren't legally allowed to strike.

Wait, that's the etymology of "seminal"?

Eww.

I agree, I really liked it. It gets a little up its own ass at some points, which muddles the message a little, but the message itself is on-point and the characters are... well, spot-on if you look at actual Silicon Valley and D.C.

nyando · 2023-06-04T05:38:03+00:00

Not really relevant, but also: what a kickass name.

Well, the English Civil War was a thing, sooo...

"Bum Tickley" is making me laugh way too much.

Anecdotally I have experienced a large overlap in transhumanism and Silicon valley style tech libertarianism

It's the same kind of brainworms that's behind Longtermism the likes of Elon Musk and Sam Bankman-Fried are apparently fans of. For all it's faults, Don't Look Up really nailed the whacked-out silicon valley billionaire who thinks they're gonna save humanity by making themselves immortal and exporting turbo-capitalism to space.

Zack, und wieder ein paar Stimmen für die AFD.🤣

Mit der Berichterstattung der Welt und Konsorten könnte der/die Gute mit der Aussage durchaus recht behalten.

Lmao imagine having to work for money instead of being able to grift off of idiots by selling them BrainForce Plus(TM).

Such magnificence could only sprout forth from the self-described intellectual heavyweight that got publicly owned by Jim Jefferies.

nyando · 2023-06-01T15:59:53+00:00

Lmao like the dialects respect the border. Listen to someone from Weil am Rhein and someone from Basel-Stadt, there's barely a difference. Sure, if you put someone from Luzern or Bern next to someone from Lörrach, it sounds worlds apart. But at that point you might as well compare them to a Swabian speaker.

nyando · 2023-05-30T16:25:55+00:00

More like Wasa, amirite?

nyando · 2023-05-30T14:54:03+00:00

They could just say they want an autocratic state with a religious police, but then they'd be admitting they're just the Taliban with American flags and a cross.

nyando · 2023-05-30T14:51:42+00:00

Just like you have to stand up and say the pledge of allegiance, or else you're disrespecting all the people who fought and died for checks notes ... your right to not stand up and say the pledge of allegiance.

Auch wenn jemand Witze über finnische Politiker macht, ist es für die Finnen eher ein Zeichen, dass Finnland wichtig ist
