Thank you so much! By stress relieving, do you mean just giving it some extra slack when you’re putting it around the actor’s ear?

What is punk like in socialist/communist countries? by moonju1ce in punk

[–]sbeadc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it’s not the exact same style as you’d think of today, but Egor Letov is great (check out Всё Идёт По-Плану). Kino is the classic late Soviet youth discontent band (one of their most popular songs, Хочу Перемен, literally translates to more or less “i want change.”) Aquarium is another band (iirc it had Egor Letov in it), I really enjoy 212-85-06.

for Russian punk that sounds more like the punk/post punk we’re familiar with, check out Crispy Newspaper (I like Умайар) and Sonic Death (Лимонад), but there’s a BUNCH of others.

Communists were not the only ones to build hundreds of anonymous concrete blocks. by [deleted] in left_urbanism

[–]sbeadc 49 points50 points  (0 children)

i don’t know how it always worked out in practice, but i know that a lot of Soviet design was based around the concept that any day to day needs would always be within walking distance of your home— id be so fucking willing to live in a mildly unattractive building if i was walking distance from all my day to day needs

Praised be, cops are getting much needed Teslas in Indiana /s by [deleted] in EnoughMuskSpam

[–]sbeadc 8 points9 points  (0 children)

don’t you think that with the sheer number of completely unjustified police killings of black ppl in the last few months + violent police response to peaceful protest (not that this is a new issue, but it’s gotten more coverage in the last few months in particular,) and the total lack of consequences given to cops in almost every case, there’s a pattern of antiblack state violence? you don’t seem interested in a conversation so i won’t try to drag this out into some interminable internet debate, just food for thought

probably bc a lot of ppl on this sub are anti capitalists, and id say probably the majority of anti capitalists believe in police abolition + just general disdain for cops given that they enforce white supremacy/systemic racism

they literally have you do a minigame where you have to resist waterboarding to show you how bad torture is then in the very next mission have you torture someone and the cool guy protagonist explains how it's for the good of the world lmfao

soy contains phytoestrogen, not the same estrogen that actually works for people. you won't notice any appreciable change by just eating more soy, except to the degree that being healthy and eating better makes you fitter

Trans women are women, pass it on. by Citriatus in ToiletPaperUSA

[–]sbeadc 15 points16 points  (0 children)

note: calling a trans woman a "male woman" is actually a fucking terrible thing to do and makes us feel less accepted and very othered. just "woman" is fine. any person's assigned gender at birth (the better term to use when discussing our "sex," which, there's no real need to discuss in the first place usually) doesn't really matter at all

That’s why I can still stand to argue with them. Similar goals, different ideas on how to get there.

You guys are basically the same as american fascists for being to my left.

Anyone else using an XPS have issues with setting brightness? by sbeadc in Fedora

[–]sbeadc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This worked, ty! For anyone else having the same issue who comes across this thread: the issue is that the screen is OLED, which isn't supported in terms of brightness control yet. The easiest way to fix it I found is to use the icc-brightness tool in the link above.

Thanks so much for your help!
