Who among your large 98% is fucking seriously helping? With any of this?
Shouldn't there be a fucking FEW people, out of all these goddamn chucklefucks, who at least a BUNCH of folks would be like -
"Ya know they're fighting against all odds but they've been in the Senate for X years and I guess they finally had enough, can't believe what I just saw"
The only ones doing shit like that - AT ALL - are Marjorie Taylor fucking Greene?
You've got 98% to work with. Where's anything like the effort these historic events merit?
Just what I like to see, a fucking rapist saying things I agree with. Cool meme thanks
[Edit: Hey neat, we get Michael fucking Jordan AND Nike along for the ride, too, all looking like - weird - perfect fucking marketing! For real, get rid of this trash forever, what the fuck already]
You don't have to make them temporary, you can feel proud at all times, IF you go to someone competent and patient who can make the typical wobbly chud tattoo lines into meticulous strings of tiny dick-and-balls.
Like a line of ants posed for a whole tattoo of the flag (maybe another of the Monster logo, balance and contrast are important considerations for thoughtful art after all).
Except when you look real close, it's not a series of meth'ed out "lines", nor a miraculously trained ant colony, it's just exquisitely crafted dongs, dong after dong after dingaling ding dang dong.
Christ I need a creative outlet apparently, sorry anyone who reads this
Eh, while I completely agree - for me, 1-few dozen of these are potentially cringe. Hundreds of these are cool. Thousands of these are cooler. Etc.
Even counting the many merely performative ones of course, the actual underlying situation it represents, and what people are doing in response, is what gives it gravity. To me. Far as I'm concerned, it's fucking punk AF.
Star Wars reference is just good marketing lol, I gotta acknowledge that. As much as the underlying corporate everything it really represents makes me wanna just dunk on it and / or go on various rants. Plus, Disney can own IP and make their own trash, but worthy efforts of modern art by my measure often involve reclaiming the good from among the stolen anyway.
Still. When I saw it, first thing I imagined was some dude at a bar, had a few too many, looking for the next unlucky sap to bore - wanders over - "wanna know why I got this tattoo?".
There is ineffable cringe in this thing's nature, sadly, lol.
You're not wrong, if any of us become interesting enough there's not really any hiding. But it's not magic either and there are a whooooole lot of disgruntled internet personas for them to monitor. I'm with ya though, I try to limit the details I give while simultaneously aware that it's probably pointless.
crikey, d'ya hear that?! That's the unmistakeable sound of an aspiring young content creator - they've just spotted their elusive prey - an unfilled niche! Let's go poke em with a stick, see what happens!
So much of what he does is so intentionally manufactured - very odd intentions and ideas about what to manufacture, just to say that briefly - that I have to believe he thought it would land well, advantageously in his permanently self-aggrandizing way - the several times he's said this and similar stuff.
Which, after a little inspection, gives us such a weird tiny window both into what he thinks impresses people...but to a vaguer degree, by proxy, what does impress the people who he historically has always sucked up to.
This specific weird brag he did always stuck out to me as uniquely vile, at first I saw it as merely stupid and amazingly tone deaf (first very surprising campaign, IIRC), but there was something else there I couldn't quite put my finger on, and it's this. I think we have to acknowledge it's always revealed something much, much worse.
How many times have we heard the ways "they" all truly feel, and recoiled at the base lowness of it, projected uniquely, confidently, smugly - out of their grotesque messiah's mouth? He's not uniquely vile. He's uniquely vocal, about it, and that's all.
[Edit: "they", just above, of course means the terminally deranged, unsalvageable minds we call "elites", it doesn't mean Republicans, voters, any other groups of humans - hope that's obvious but I prefer clarity]
"Bitch, it might! Sometimes! Sometimes it might not, sometimes it might do "alternative math", you're telling me you can tell the difference, like you're some kinda math expert?! (oh btw fuck you, forgot to say that part)"
(this is the part where you tack on a silly harmless lie at the end, like - "this specific packing optimization improvement was actually discovered accidentally, through a small mini-game introduced into Candy Crush in 2013. Players discovered the novel improvement, hundreds of individual times, within the first several minutes of launch. Scholars pursuing novel packing algorithms even colloquially call this event 'The Crushening'")
I do this, and it's lovely. Whole house VPN FTW - guest network for any "sus" devices.
Can't personally argue in favor of ProtonVPN, I'd say avoid that. Mullvad for me, for now, permanently open to even better solutions.
