It’s amazing and crazy to think, too, that the “theater” our brains create is an equilibrium point of laziness (to save energy) and usefulness (to help survival). So, surely, there are things we are just unable to see. But also, probably, there are different things that get mapped to the same things in the “theater.” I’m just speculating though but it makes sense.

It’s sickening and fucking enraging. It puts my mind for a spin.

Ok but you missed the part that the libs are mad.

All of a sudden the conservative rhetoric is that indigenous Greenlanders are mistreated by the Danes and that’s unfair; they need America’s help.

It’s magic

I wonder if the dog was anxious, like “why are we all running away?” or if it was the greatest day of their life.

It’s funny that this is posted in shitposts and it’s super appropriate

I posted this in another thread but it’s worth posting it here too. This person is obviously not arguing in good faith. Literally everybody knows that’s not the situation. But here this person is, oversimplifying, speaking to anger others, and obfuscating the facts.

Anyway, here’s my comment from the other day:

This is that usual gaslighting rhetoric from the right. Someone reminded of the Sartre quote about anti-semites recently. It’s so applicable to how the right twists facts and makes absurd over-generalizations. It’s the epitome of acting in bad faith.

“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

“Ancestors, please guide me. What should I do?”

“Blob zlorg bzz”

I just watched Last of Us (inspired by the game) featuring Pedro Pascal. Looks very similar to Lemmy.

New executive order just dropped: from now on only “easy cheese”

It is true. There is amazing food in the US.

I agree. The moon thing is still cool and doesn’t sound absurd; some nights it’s bright out and there’s a bright object up in the sky, and it occurs in regular intervals. Sounds believable that some animals would notice it and celebrate the light in the night. But I guess it’s a hoax hehe.

Tape your toothbrush to your mirror. Or, more seriously, put a post it note on your mirror or your soap (if it’s a liquid soap container).

This reminds me of something, though it might not be an adhd thing. Sometimes I get really into some snack or food item. So next time I get groceries I make sure I get more, extra, even. I insist on it even if I don’t eat any of it for months.

Wtf 🤯

I saw a couple recluse spiders in my apartment several months ago and maybe I’m an idiot, but I left them alone. They were truly more scared of me than I was of them. They don’t want to bother me and only will if I threaten them. So I left them alone and they just chilled in their “recluse” hiding spots.

Bayesian updating converges, surprisingly, to that idiot’s belief system.
