  • The best way to make money is "disrupt" the tower and sell the duct tape to hold it together. Wild how that always means make the lives of everyone else worse and act like it would have happened anyways.

    Anyways let's look at those quotes!

    Palantir CEO Alex Karp thinks his AI technology will lessen the power of “highly educated, often female voters, who vote mostly Democrat” while increasing the power of working-class men.

    “This technology disrupts humanities-trained—largely Democratic—voters, and makes their economic power less. And increases the economic power of vocationally trained, working-class, often male, working-class voters,” Karp said in a CNBC interview Thursday. “And so these disruptions are gonna disrupt every aspect of our society. And to make this work, we have to come to an agreement of what it is we’re going to do with the technology; how are we gonna explain to people who are likely gonna have less good, and less interesting jobs.”

    “These technologies are dangerous societally,” Karp continued. “The only justification you could possibly have would be that if we don’t do it, our adversaries will do it. And we will be subject to their rule of law.… Why is it that we’re absorbing the risk of disrupting the very fabric of our society, including the most powerful parts of our society, if it’s not because it’s about maintaining our ability to be American in the near term and long term?”

    Oh no.

  • Fights are are much more winnable when you treat them like an actual fight rather than the "manospheres" angry peacocking.

  • Isn't it great? Old school vibes. Its very 1970s like every vinyl used it too for a while there.

  • Its the aliens that like to watch...

    That or... Mom with an answer of how she knows you ruined your appetite by eating an apple off a tree on the way back from brick making.

  • Yup, but now I can't unless I have 1 angel or at least 500 people staring at me.

  • Also that too. Definitely pushes you to have a vouyerism kink

    Angels being said to be all eyes was probably some Mother's excuse for knowing what their kid was getting up to

  • "Females"

    Yeah, anyone that talks like that is a piece of shit.You know it comes from using "male" as a compliment in his head rather than a fucking gender!

  • Loves Israel, loves money, loves attacking people with weapons, say whatever to get people to like you and turn on it after.That is Fetterman before the brain injury that made him stop wearing a mask about those things. He now also has people pay him to keep going and is in a job he cant be fired from because we don't believe in standards in the higher classes.

    And when he is voted out he will slink away complaining the people ruined a good thing for him like the narcissist he is.

  • This is the current headline

    Trump says US 'not finished yet' in Iran as Israel launches new strikes at Lebanon

    I wish I could draw cause I picture Israel as a giant child just playing with missiles like toys to finally strike every country around it it has wanted to for years now and Trump is the neglectful parent just supplying more and not caring that there is very real fire spreading.

    Its truly wild how much above us and detached our most influential are these days.

  • I assumed camel man is being broken up with and was ready to see tears as it went on.

    And yeah a rough blocking of stuff is always good and is even an old filmography trick to just draw stuck figures first to get an idea of where everyone goes.

    I hope Meri learns how to sit nicely at the table.

  • Yeah, if you pay attention you will see Okabe gets his every wish. So that when suddenly he has to pick what level of pain he is ok with for payment, it puts him in hell. And since he is a loner and doesnt think of everyone else he doesnt have anyone else to talk to to the point that he doesnt even realize that everyone else is still remembering what he did and that his actions have never been without consequences. And he has to live up to them to undo them.

    But yeah wild how the wrapper on a story can make such a difference, I mean this is the same story as Its a wonderful Life and yet the method of telling it makes it completely different and makes a slightly different take on the answer. The author clearly thinks its still ok to be absurd with reality at the end as long as you take it seriously.

    By the way I don't know Maebashi Witches but I do love Studio Sunrise and how they do personal stories, so it will go on the list after I catch up to Frieren.

  • And I didnt even downvote your original comment because I liked the idea of having a discussion on this because you are not wrong to find the MC grating.

    You have your own sonder and I respect that. I appreciate you giving me a place to put my thoughts in this discussion by starting it. And yeah, some of us with our own flavor of life will take different things from it. Its why I think Steins;Gate is great at being art even if it isn't always easy to watch.

  • Man, this person jumped so hard to imagined victimhood so fast and now refuses to leave it.A full day later and still burning like the downvotes aren't necessary to keep the vitriol out of good conversation.

  • Their hand quivers, and they can feel their legs shake, "Maybe this is the time" they think to themselves, if they can find the courage that is.Maybe it will end like a meet-cute and the future love their life will get out their car and help them out and pick them up and send them on a glorious adventure.Or maybe it will just sever their spine and it will be over.But! The driver will remember them and their face for the rest of their life, their death having given meaning to their existence as the driver will go on to travel the world and have the adventure of a lifetime in response to this random stranger they collided with. Knowing that even if its not personally lived but that the adventure was had by their presence...

    But their daydreams are snapped out by the sound of a car horn and the engine roaring past.The moment is gone but the heart still flutters and the adrenaline pumps through their veins, less than the first time they thought about this but enough to still feel the rush of life they don't live. "There is always the next car," they think, "maybe, this time I will try yelling at them."

  • No excuse for being this much of a jerk though.

  • Booooooo

  • So the point is that he is a nearing adult chunibyo (person with grand delusions that is somewhat common in Japan that is very strict and leaves young people economically behind) he is supposed to be weird and making stuff up because he doesnt care much for the real world. He is bad at being a "real" person.

    But, surprise surprise, everything he is making up is real, and he gets everything he could want. A grand conspiracy, evil organizations, even stuff pertaining to his friends, changed to his desired fantasies. He gets it all and is asked only to give up the "real world" which seems easy until it comes with actual loss of it.

    It invites you to watch the tragedy of this person trying to find who they are when either version of himself makes him unhappy. And then it is wrapped in the SciFi story where one of the best parts of the show is that everything is relevant to the plot by being true to the characters and their world. Lots of little details to map out how they all work together.

    All to say I actually like the tedium. It shows how easy it is to stumble downwards into delusion, how it feels simple and boring unti l you are in it, and then how painful it can be to come back out the other side and how hard it can be to be the same person when you do.

  • Hey hey hey, the only appropriate brainrot echo chamber I believe in is the inside of my own empty head.

    Anyways, better! Much better. I thought there was an exclamation above the TV man's head when he interjected but I think thats just background chair shenanigans? Try to keep your main focus points clean. It feels like out atlantian is standing in front of him rather than sitting at the table.

    Do you ever wireframe with stick figures first?
