Any war with this many aggressors who were all opposed to each other absolutely would just look like everyone killing each other at random. Even without nukes, it would be madness on a scale never before seen, resulting in a quieter, nay sleepier world.

We need to be fucking shit up
Be kind, communicate a lot.
Sounds dumb but if it’s meant to be that’s all it should take. People make dating these days so complex.
Yeah… My kid’s going to have such a bizarre sense of humour. I feel like I’m enriching comedic plutonium over here.
Can I be lazy and not write it all out?
Not all of it is for my kid, not all of it is even very good, but it’s a good bit of variety.
Imagine a car, malfunctioning, looking at you while it hits you.
It lets me cut out any unnecessary credits or repetitive intros, and I have a little fun with commercial breaks sometimes. Once I put the Heinz automato robot video into the commercial break of a Mega Man cartoon. That got a big laugh.
It’s the highlight of my week. It’s great to have culture in common with my kid and to get each others references. I also like to cook big breakfasts that day, lots of waffles, bellinis, fancy stuff, fresh fruits. Real bougie with it.
I thought I might be playing it loose applying it to the case of private equity in the creative arts, but it feels right
All the best to those who counsel prudence here, all I have is an anecdote. I had a major falling out with my mom at that age, moved out with no plan. Luckily my girlfriend’s parents took me in.
It was difficult for them, and awkward, and at that age I was in hindsight a pain in the ass, but I got to spend time with a family that has real values, rituals, culture, and bonds. I got to spend time learning a little more about what kind of person I want to become.
I didn’t stay with the girl, but I owe at least bit of everything I’ve achieved in the decades since to the kindness her parents showed me. I still email them, twenty years later. I’d be a runt if I ever tried to talk anyone out of that kindness.
I curate about 90 cartoons and almost as many indie animation channels to create a weekly block of Saturday morning cartoon programming for my wife and kid.
I edit it together in kdenlive from files on my media server, and we stream it to my mini projector each weekend. Been going over a year now, only missing weeks when we’re traveling. I would love to be able to share it with a wider audience, but I’m still not sure how, given it’s all pirated.
When I find out a thing I like is the preferred option of someone whose niche fixation is that type of thing, it gives me life.
All I really want from the internet is to have a council of difficult nerds telling me what all the best shit is so I can become the perfect being.
I’m never leaving Lemmy lmao
Bad money chases out good, they say.
You jest, but remember that the Dept of Education has been EO’d almost out of existence, currently run by Vince McMahon’s wife who is a staunch supporter of “school choice” and charter schools. These are the easiest way to re-segregate schools, put the curriculum back in the hands of moneyed interests, and defund public education.
The trend will be that public schools will have all the kids who are economically disadvantaged, disaffected, badly taught, and unable to be helped by teachers and faculty who are underpaid, understaffed, and hobbled by bad policy, the more school shootings will become a problem that doesn’t affect a certain segment of society. Any parents who can, will pull their kids from failing public schools and pay more to have their kids attend other schools, or even homeschool. The fewer kids the public schools have, the more budget cuts will be authorised.
All public schools will ultimately be shuttered, under this plan. School shootings will keep happening of course, but once it only affects rich white kids, it will finally be taken seriously, at least.
There’s nothing more dangerous than closeted dudes istg
It takes two to tango, they say. Corporations have a lot more wallet to vote with, as it were - but we are not powerless or blameless when we support them out of complacency.
We are not to be spared the buzz marketing.
