Huey Percy Newton - New General Megathread for the 17th-23th of February 2025
“I dissuade Party members from putting down people who do not understand. Even people who are unenlightened and seemingly bourgeois should be answered in a polite way. Things should be explained to them as fully as possible. I was turned off by a person who did not want to talk to me because I was not important enough. Maurice just wanted to preach to the converted, who already agreed with him. I try to be cordial, because that way you win people over. You cannot win them over by drawing the line of demarcation, saying you are on this side and I am on the other; that shows a lack of consciousness. After the Black Panther Party was formed, I nearly fell into this error. I could not understand why people were blind to what I saw so clearly. Then I realized that their understanding had to be developed.”
― Huey P. Newton :huey-wut:
Huey Newton, born on the 17th of february in 1942, was a Marxist-Leninist revolutionary who, along with fellow Merritt College student Bobby Seale, co-founded the Black Panther Party (1966 - 1982). Together with Seale, Newton created a ten-point program which laid out guidelines for how the African-American community could achieve liberation.
In the 1960s, under Newton's leadership, the Black Panther Party founded over 60 community support programs (renamed survival programs in 1971) including food banks, medical clinics, HIV support groups, sickle cell anemia tests, prison busing for families of inmates, legal advice seminars, clothing banks, housing co-ops, and their own ambulance service.
The most famous of these programs was the Free Breakfast for Children program which fed thousands of impoverished children daily during the early 1970s. Newton also co-founded the Black Panther newspaper service which became one of America's most widely distributed African-American newspapers. In 1967, he was involved in a shootout which led to the death of the police officer John Frey. Although arrested for the murder of Frey, the charges were eventually dismissed.
In 1970, after his release from prison, Newton received an invitation to visit the People's Republic of China. Newton made the trip in late September 1971 with fellow Panthers, Elaine Brown and Robert Bay, and stayed for 10 days. At every Chinese airport he landed in, Newton was greeted by thousands of people waving copies of the "Little Red Book" and displaying signs that said "we support the Black Panther Party, down with US imperialism" or "we support the American people but the Nixon imperialist regime must be overthrown."
By mid-decade, Newton faced more criminal charges when he was accused of murdering a 17-year-old sex worker and assaulting a tailor. To avoid prosecution, he fled to Cuba in 1974, but returned to the U.S. three years later. The murder case was eventually dismissed after two trials ended with deadlocked juries, while the tailor refused to testify in court in relation to assault charges.
Despite graduating from high school not knowing how to read, he taught himself literacy by reading Plato's Republic and earned a Ph.D. in social philosophy from the University of California at Santa Cruz's History of Consciousness program in 1980. In 1989, he was murdered in Oakland, California by Tyrone Robinson, a member of the Black Guerrilla Family.
Revolutionary suicide does not mean that I and my comrades have a death wish; it means just the opposite. We have such a strong desire to live with hope and human dignity that existence without them is impossible. When reactionary forces crush us, we must move against these forces, even at the risk of death. We will have to be driven out with a stick.”
― Huey P. Newton, Revolutionary Suicide :huey-wut:

I combatted liberalism harder than usual and it balkanized my lib friend group. This is uncomfortable, but it feels like I have moved from the absence of tension to the presence of justice--though there was a lot of tension at the end.
This may leave me and my partner temporarily without any form of support group, which is unfortunate; but they seem surprisingly unbothered by the outcome and approve of me sticking to my morals rather than capitulating. I got a good one, comrades.

Is anyone else weird about death like I am? Like a lot of people treat it with such reverence which I just don't understand. My granny died recently, and while it was sad to see her go, she was old and suffering very badly from dementia. But I wasnt that upset about it, and all my friends were acting like I was super fragile. One of my friends asked me how the funeral was, I said it was alright, and she was like "ok got it, you don't want to talk about it". Like what the fuck? That's not what I said at all. It was a nice ceremony and I was doing fine, was I supposed to pretend to be sadder than I was? People die, acting like death is a taboo is so strange to me. Also I've never understood people talking about disrespecting the dead and stuff like that. Like if you step on a grave, the corpse won't care, it's a corpse. It can be disrespectful to the living, so I don't do it, but the dead won't be upset. Dead people arent happier when they're dead, they're just dead.
I don't believe in ghosts or spirituality or an afterlife, but it seems like most people do. Also one of my friends said that people who don't believe in ghosts are stupid which pissed me off because like no that's not stupid to not believe in ghosts. I don't care if you believe in ghosts, why would you care if I don't.

The Wild Thornberries 2: Eliza and Debbie are grown up and have ended up carrying on their parents' legacy as nature documentarians. Donnie has become a tech guy and runs the camera, and the joke is that even though he speaks English now he's still completely unintelligible when he talks because he uses excessive zoomer internet slang. Darwin is still alive but pretty old by chimpanzee standards and is the most grounded member of the cast. The whole family is vegan.
The whole show has a doomer vibe, with the pair often feeling like they're just cataloguing the Earth's final days. In half of the episodes they revisit a location from the show's original run and explore the ways in which it has been fucked by climate change and/or overdevelopment. Eliza can still talk to animals but there are fewer to talk to than there used to be. A recurring villain is their producer who is always trying to get them to do vapid influencer shit.

I hate ”I simply don’t define myself by my work” okay but your work does define where and how you spend about 1/3 of your life. Like you can’t smugly dismiss people being unhappy with it. It’s not their personal moral failing to be bothered that 1/3 or more of their life just sucks.

Ive had an IUD thats at the end of its life and it got rid of my extremely dysfunctional periods which has been a godsend. For the past couple of months, though, they've come back very lightly and I've noticed that I get really extreme depression and suicidal ideation right before it starts. It's so debilitating; idk if I have PMDD or what but I really hope that a new IUD makes it all go away. I fucking hate having a period and I can't keep going on like this feeling suicidal every fucking month. That's what my mood stabilizers have been for and I hate that it just feels like they aren't working anymore. I can't live like this

I haven't fully articulated my thoughts on this, but I feel like there's a throughline from edgy teenagers who like to "ironically" say things like the gamer word and "hitler did nothing wrong" because "it's just words bro, why are you so triggered?", to right wing adult debatebros who are like "I'm just asking questions, dabbling in the realm of thoughts and ideas, why won't you engage in a civil discussion with me? perhaps irrationality in your disagreement is causing you to react emotionally "

There’s always something funny about the Canadian federal conservative leaders trying to attack “elites”, or public servants, or even Trudeau’s privileged background. Not a single one of them in the past 25 years has held a real job for more than a year their entire lives. They are career politicians, they don’t know what it means to work in either the private or public sector. They have less real world experience than even Trudeau. It just makes me roll my eyes every time.

i got that room i was writing about yesterday. very cool to finally have the chance to move out of this shitty place after three years and it's very cool that it is comparatively really cheap too, but i somehow can't really get too excited about it all. I don't know, moving is going to be quite a lot of stress, I need a lot of new furniture and all, I still need to deal with my roommate here if i don't want to pay double rent for a few months and it's also just not really any closer to the city centre than my current place. It sucks just how many compromises you need to make if you don't have infinite money. Like I'd love to have friends over more often, but getting them to take the train there seems almost impossible, even though it would take them less than half an hour or so. Hard to feel particularly excited, which sucks. I dunno. It's good that things are changing either way.

Most right-wing nationalists in the USA, Britain and France who say they dislike the Nazis don't have a very good reason, since their rhetoric is just as genocidal. It's tempting to say that theyre lying, and they dont actually dislike Nazis, but I believe that most of them do believe that they're better than the Nazis.
But what they hate about the Nazis isn't what they did, but that they lost. If the Nazis had won, most of these people would be frothing at the mouth in celebration. They don't hate Nazi ideology, they hate what they perceive to be losers, and the Nazis were pretty big losers

Cowboy Bebop's future worldbuilding is objectively bleak- Earth is destroyed with civilization forced to move underground, humans in space seem to live only on terraformed patches of land on the solar system's planets and moons while surrounded by desert if they're on Mars, Venus, or Io, or surrounded by ocean on Ganymede, or in the frigid cold on Callisto. It's a capitalistic future with resultant crime, poverty, and imperialist wars. And yet it's so fully realized and interesting that I kind of want to live there. I wouldn't take it over the Star Trek future, but there is something strangely appealing about it.

I've been playing horizon forbidden west (the lore is cool and fine), but wtf is going on with acting in big games (aside from daniels from the wire ♥), it's just weird pauses, the faces could be emotive sometimes, but not always, dramatic but unrealistic poses and positioning.
Strange disconnect tbh, i wonder if i got unused to aaa shenanigans or oblivion voice acting is still the golden standard for big rpg games. But i think tomb raider was fine like 10 years ago? gta 4/5 was also passable, maybe it's scroll wheels dialogue problem? but then it's easy to fix, just don't do 1s pauses, and record dialogue in tandem? It's not active dialogue ffs, why does it have feeling of being recorded separately.
*dark souls lines are memorable, but they don't talk to silent protagonist, so it's easy to do there. AC black flag also didn't have this problem i don't think

been enjoying Avowed, my biggest complaint is basically the exact same complaint I have about every single open world western RPG which is that my character just doesn't feel unique enough and the world doesn't feel simulated enough. Like I feel like every game in the genre since Daggerfall has been walking down a path of streamlining gameplay and tightening the writing, and that's fine, but there's this totally unexplored territory where they could go the entire opposite direction and make a game where you are a smol bean in a big simulated fantasyverse.
The only counter examples that come to mind are Dwarf Fortress Adventure Mode, Caves of Qud, uhhhh that one game that's like a simulation of being in middle ages Scandinavia...

Alright, I have a plan to launch class consciousness in America, but be forewarned: it's cringe:
I Challenge RFK Jr to boxing match.
I send the challenge to national newspapers, in a letter calling the Democrats weak and blaming this administration on politicians and their billionaire sponsors being upset at the multiple successful union drives and strikes during Biden's administration. And make it clear that the politicians won't help so we all have to take this fight in our own hands.

Sometimes need to know weather info for other places for a couple of tasks at work, and right after reading about IRS mass firings, found out that the NOAA is getting mass firings.
Complained to a couple of coworkers "well there goes weather dot gov" and one of them said "I don't care what they cut as long as it gets inflation down."
I asked him how he thought putting a bunch of skilled workers into unemployment was going to do anything but depress wages and he said he didn't know but burning it all down would let us build something better.
I still hate liberals but I have to apologize for ever thinking they were more annoying than conservatives. I want to pluck out my eardrums after listening to this horseshit.

Im just trying to book a Ryanair flight and I detest how its just acceptable for companies to design their websites to trick people into spending more money. I have to scroll through so much shit I don't want to buy, they highlight the upgrades and make it hard to find the normal options that I actually want. If I was old or inexperienced with technology I could very easily be swindled out of so much money for shit I don't need.

GTA IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony was more fun than the base game and TLaD by a good deal.

The discussion around Conclave (2024) is decroded.
::: spoiler spoiler
So many people talking about the twist while misunderstanding it. Some think that Vincent is transmasculine (or even transfeminine!) despite the movie spelling out very clearly that he's intersex and didn't know until late into his life. All the discussion of the twist is so superficial, like it's just supposed to be for shock, instead of engaging with the way the character himself spells out how his existence is an example of the ambiguities the Church struggles with. The themes of the movie couldn't be more clear! Yes, Tedesco is a goofy vapelord, and if you ever meet real world tradcaths you'll find they're extremely common in real Catholic spaces and they behave in even goofier ways.
I even saw someone say "the movie isn't really for tradcaths it's more for the Francis lib types. No! The whole point of Bellini's failed campaign is that liberal compromise and leaser evilism is ineffective and only lends more strength to reactionaries and corrupt bad actors such as Tremblay! It rejects liberalism!

I was thinking about why American patriotic nationalistic propogantistic films can't be sincere and can't risk being cringe. Compare Top Gun vs RRR or Wolf Warrior II. Part of it has gotta be that America doesn't have a ton to be proud about and part of the myth making in RRR and Wolf Warrior II is the struggle against western imperialism lol.
I think you could have a successful action film in that genre but it's have to center people in the Concrete Universal. Like Django, that's a dope film and it is not afraid of sincerity or seeming silly and it has great moral clarity. You could make a movie about John Brown or the Black Panthers - Hollywood tried but American cultural institutions are somewhat unwilling to let that moral certainty stand for itself and also hedge their bets and don't aim for maximal sincerity, so you get weak TV series and films like The Good Lord Bird and Judas and The Black Messiah
Ironically, I think an exploitation genre film would work great. Not enough oversight from the big institutions, it's cheap and schlock so you can be as sincere as you want. I'm thinking of what about an American version of Monkey Man, the underdog rising up against corrupt institutions within the imperial metropole
::: spoiler talking about sex trafficking
I was rewatching The Wire, got to season 2, every time I see those women getting walked from the strippers to the condo under armed guard to perform sex work under coercion, I think "the day will come when they rise up and kill their pimps and get their freedom"
So what about that kind of film, that would embrace the revolutionary aesthetic, you can talk about liberty and the American Ideal, you can kill a bunch of traffickers and corrupt cops and take down a network, it's Monkey Man but in the American heartland. And you can be super sincere and risk all the cringe you want, they would represent the Concrete Universal. I think it could be fun, it is an exploitation film though so it has all those failings 😬 (but exploitation films can still be fun as fuck)

no more "USA taking the minerals means they'll need to stay and defend them" cope. posters there have accepted that the USA has utterly betrayed them, and all that they sacraficed on America's behalf will have been for nothing, but they still believe their participation was entirely righteous and just path to take. every other post is fantasizing about making the EU a military super-power.
The peace deal is still gonna suck for Russia. they get part of 4 oblasts, which ukraine and other countries don't need to recognize, Azov stays, Kyiv stays in the west NGO-sphere and will keep electing anti-russia presidents, and ukraine will probably have very beefy tripwire force of EU soldiers deployed.

Can't deny that I'm a tiny little bit concerned about the level of bloodthirst I'm seeing amongst europeans lately. Is it not pretty god damn obvious the americans aren't doing this to "stand up for freedom and democracy", just like every single other conflict they've ever participated in? Like trump is the only thing that screwed it all up and that Nordstream just kind of did that. They've thrown every ally they've ever had under the bus, and europe is cucked enough to think that this time is different.
People now unironically calling for EU/NATO boots on the ground in ukraine now that the yanks are potentially (hopefully?) fucking off. Do they think they're somehow immune to the realities of war due to our "superior culture"? As if 99% of our critical infrastructure wouldn't be vapourised by Oreshniks and other incredibly fucked up weapons that we don't have any answer to within half an hour? Fuckin "the russians wouldn't stand a chance against the combined might of europe!!!", I'm sure we would do great with our sixteen dudes and a tractor that we're left with at this point, out of which thirteen would desert immediately once they realize this enemy actually poses a threat.

Doing food costing at work, which is above my pay grade and not my job as a cook, but 1) I don't do my job as a line cook and have been managing my manager during rushes and 2) I get access to the exact amount thst the owner is profiting off me and the math to prove it, which is great raise ammo when combined with me doing my boss's job and 3) it's actually pretty fun, filling out spreadsheets and doing math for work is kinda relaxing when you're usually cooking a lot of food really fast and yelling across rooms to tell people what to make and when. It's also hilarious how not prepared anything was before the chef got a one month deadline to do this, which is part of getting asked to help, the other is me and the other guy working on it know how to use excel and how to gather and process data cause he's got a geology degree and I'm just really into knowing stuff and sometimes that requires doing some amateur science. So I've been going back through what invoices we have, finding the weight and cost of items, converting thar weight to grams and then getting a cost per gram which can be thousandth of a cent. After that we get to go through the recipe book and use the data we gathered to figure out the cost of prep batches and then take that and weigh out food while.we make it to order to establish a rough cost per item. The owner gave us a fucking month. We're also supposed to do the rest of the job at the same time. I don't give any fucks about the deadline, not my sword to fall on if missed so I get to just kinda gather Intel at my leisure, my job is making food so if there's food to make I gotta do that, but as far as slow time activities go, it beats the hell out of cleaning or restocking.
I really need to get in on the ground floor of a place and be a head chef. I just don't wanna be management, but also I'm.doing that job now for less money and kinda like that people do what I say at work cause they trust me and not cause they have to. Aldo I'd have to deal directly with the owner and keep them happy and I would refuse to work to their benefit and not the workers, take your skim you fucking slimeball, I can't make it a co-op but there's no way I could be a manager for long, I hate owners so much. It's a conundrum, if anyone had money and wants to open a restaurant I'll relocate and have 2 other people that would as well and between us you'd have the best and cheapest vegan food in whatever city you're in. It sucks being at the point where being good at food has hit it's limit and I'd have to be some middle manager to move up
Edit: I have literally done food costing by meal for what I normally make at home for fun. My falafel wraps were the most cost effective at like $1 per. If you have a scale at home and want to see the math behind your meals, it can be useful

I’ve read stories of juniors only programming with ChatGPT and not understanding anything, which I still can’t imagine. I was doing a side project for someone with stuff I wasn’t familiar with, and besides having to fix everything ChatGPT was giving me it was mostly going fine. Then it made up and API call, and every form of correction I gave it it would be like “oh my bad I made up an api call, here is a working version” and it would either use the same made up api call or make up a new api call.
I’ve worked with people in my field who somehow got to more senior roles than me just copying and pasting stackexchange threads and see completely lost in peer programming sessions when one of them doesn’t work. Like I get this is a real phenomenon it’s just baffling, how do you not learn something having to constantly debug non functioning code. Like that in itself should be a learning opportunity?

If I could go back in time, I'd go and beg on my hands and knees for the soviets to add electric horizontal turret drives for more of their tanks! The agony of having a turret with a turn time of a gajillion years makes my nerves cry out in pain! Please, stop relying on having a strong proletarian to jork a crankwheel at the speed of sound and just use the electricity from the engine instead to make the turret go spinny! I know you have some battery in there or else the headlights wouldn't work then, huh? Even if the dinky shells from a PzKw.III bounce straight of the glorious rolled steel of the KV-85, that doesn't ease my conscience as much as being able to aim and shoot the damn thing within a reasonable timeframe! That's the only thing I'll completely hand to the Jerries, they had electric horizontal turret drives from the word go...

Huey Percy Newton - New General Megathread for the 17th-23th of February 2025
― Huey P. Newton :huey-wut:
Huey Newton, born on the 17th of february in 1942, was a Marxist-Leninist revolutionary who, along with fellow Merritt College student Bobby Seale, co-founded the Black Panther Party (1966 - 1982). Together with Seale, Newton created a ten-point program which laid out guidelines for how the African-American community could achieve liberation. In the 1960s, under Newton's leadership, the Black Panther Party founded over 60 community support programs (renamed survival programs in 1971) including food banks, medical clinics, HIV support groups, sickle cell anemia tests, prison busing for families of inmates, legal advice seminars, clothing banks, housing co-ops, and their own ambulance service.
The most famous of these programs was the Free Breakfast for Children program which fed thousands of impoverished children daily during the early 1970s. Newton also co-founded the Black Panther newspaper service which became one of America's most widely distributed African-American newspapers. In 1967, he was involved in a shootout which led to the death of the police officer John Frey. Although arrested for the murder of Frey, the charges were eventually dismissed.
In 1970, after his release from prison, Newton received an invitation to visit the People's Republic of China. Newton made the trip in late September 1971 with fellow Panthers, Elaine Brown and Robert Bay, and stayed for 10 days. At every Chinese airport he landed in, Newton was greeted by thousands of people waving copies of the "Little Red Book" and displaying signs that said "we support the Black Panther Party, down with US imperialism" or "we support the American people but the Nixon imperialist regime must be overthrown."
By mid-decade, Newton faced more criminal charges when he was accused of murdering a 17-year-old sex worker and assaulting a tailor. To avoid prosecution, he fled to Cuba in 1974, but returned to the U.S. three years later. The murder case was eventually dismissed after two trials ended with deadlocked juries, while the tailor refused to testify in court in relation to assault charges.
Despite graduating from high school not knowing how to read, he taught himself literacy by reading Plato's Republic and earned a Ph.D. in social philosophy from the University of California at Santa Cruz's History of Consciousness program in 1980. In 1989, he was murdered in Oakland, California by Tyrone Robinson, a member of the Black Guerrilla Family.

I combatted liberalism harder than usual and it balkanized my lib friend group. This is uncomfortable, but it feels like I have moved from the absence of tension to the presence of justice--though there was a lot of tension at the end.
This may leave me and my partner temporarily without any form of support group, which is unfortunate; but they seem surprisingly unbothered by the outcome and approve of me sticking to my morals rather than capitulating. I got a good one, comrades.

Is anyone else weird about death like I am? Like a lot of people treat it with such reverence which I just don't understand. My granny died recently, and while it was sad to see her go, she was old and suffering very badly from dementia. But I wasnt that upset about it, and all my friends were acting like I was super fragile. One of my friends asked me how the funeral was, I said it was alright, and she was like "ok got it, you don't want to talk about it". Like what the fuck? That's not what I said at all. It was a nice ceremony and I was doing fine, was I supposed to pretend to be sadder than I was? People die, acting like death is a taboo is so strange to me. Also I've never understood people talking about disrespecting the dead and stuff like that. Like if you step on a grave, the corpse won't care, it's a corpse. It can be disrespectful to the living, so I don't do it, but the dead won't be upset. Dead people arent happier when they're dead, they're just dead.
I don't believe in ghosts or spirituality or an afterlife, but it seems like most people do. Also one of my friends said that people who don't believe in ghosts are stupid which pissed me off because like no that's not stupid to not believe in ghosts. I don't care if you believe in ghosts, why would you care if I don't.

The Wild Thornberries 2: Eliza and Debbie are grown up and have ended up carrying on their parents' legacy as nature documentarians. Donnie has become a tech guy and runs the camera, and the joke is that even though he speaks English now he's still completely unintelligible when he talks because he uses excessive zoomer internet slang. Darwin is still alive but pretty old by chimpanzee standards and is the most grounded member of the cast. The whole family is vegan.
The whole show has a doomer vibe, with the pair often feeling like they're just cataloguing the Earth's final days. In half of the episodes they revisit a location from the show's original run and explore the ways in which it has been fucked by climate change and/or overdevelopment. Eliza can still talk to animals but there are fewer to talk to than there used to be. A recurring villain is their producer who is always trying to get them to do vapid influencer shit.

Musk must have gotten big mad because you can't see the quote tweets on that tweet anymore, but someone gathered a bunch of them.

”I simply don’t define myself by my work” okay but your work does define where and how you spend about 1/3 of your life. Like you can’t smugly dismiss people being unhappy with it. It’s not their personal moral failing to be bothered that 1/3 or more of their life just sucks.
everyone is turning so fucking shitty. wether it's just existing in public, online in games, people on websites, it's everywhere. everyone is so mad and on edge, ready to start fights with anyone else at the drop of a hat. it's like people are going feral, it's so fucked.
moving in with my former best friend and slowly realising he's actually a complete asshole is not so fun. also living with his narcissistic bully of a girlfriend is not so fun

Ive had an IUD thats at the end of its life and it got rid of my extremely dysfunctional periods which has been a godsend. For the past couple of months, though, they've come back very lightly and I've noticed that I get really extreme depression and suicidal ideation right before it starts. It's so debilitating; idk if I have PMDD or what but I really hope that a new IUD makes it all go away. I fucking hate having a period and I can't keep going on like this feeling suicidal every fucking month. That's what my mood stabilizers have been for and I hate that it just feels like they aren't working anymore. I can't live like this

I haven't fully articulated my thoughts on this, but I feel like there's a throughline from edgy teenagers who like to "ironically" say things like the gamer word and "hitler did nothing wrong" because "it's just words bro, why are you so triggered?", to right wing adult debatebros who are like "I'm just asking questions, dabbling in the realm of thoughts and ideas, why won't you engage in a civil discussion with me? perhaps irrationality in your disagreement is causing you to react emotionally

There’s always something funny about the Canadian federal conservative leaders trying to attack “elites”, or public servants, or even Trudeau’s privileged background. Not a single one of them in the past 25 years has held a real job for more than a year their entire lives. They are career politicians, they don’t know what it means to work in either the private or public sector. They have less real world experience than even Trudeau. It just makes me roll my eyes every time.

i got that room i was writing about yesterday. very cool to finally have the chance to move out of this shitty place after three years and it's very cool that it is comparatively really cheap too, but i somehow can't really get too excited about it all. I don't know, moving is going to be quite a lot of stress, I need a lot of new furniture and all, I still need to deal with my roommate here if i don't want to pay double rent for a few months and it's also just not really any closer to the city centre than my current place. It sucks just how many compromises you need to make if you don't have infinite money. Like I'd love to have friends over more often, but getting them to take the train there seems almost impossible, even though it would take them less than half an hour or so. Hard to feel particularly excited, which sucks. I dunno. It's good that things are changing either way.

Most right-wing nationalists in the USA, Britain and France who say they dislike the Nazis don't have a very good reason, since their rhetoric is just as genocidal. It's tempting to say that theyre lying, and they dont actually dislike Nazis, but I believe that most of them do believe that they're better than the Nazis.
But what they hate about the Nazis isn't what they did, but that they lost. If the Nazis had won, most of these people would be frothing at the mouth in celebration. They don't hate Nazi ideology, they hate what they perceive to be losers, and the Nazis were pretty big losers

Cowboy Bebop's future worldbuilding is objectively bleak- Earth is destroyed with civilization forced to move underground, humans in space seem to live only on terraformed patches of land on the solar system's planets and moons while surrounded by desert if they're on Mars, Venus, or Io, or surrounded by ocean on Ganymede, or in the frigid cold on Callisto. It's a capitalistic future with resultant crime, poverty, and imperialist wars. And yet it's so fully realized and interesting that I kind of want to live there. I wouldn't take it over the Star Trek future, but there is something strangely appealing about it.

I've been trying to cook more now that I'm unemployed. Still extremely burnt out so it's hard to keep up with every day, but I'm trying to steer myself and my partner to more plant based, high protein foods and it's been good so far. I made a tofu ricotta spread today that slaps. I used soft tofu so it's really creamy and I think I'm gonna use it for an Alfredo sauce and I'll use it in place of cream cheese on toast and bagels.
I've been playing horizon forbidden west (the lore is cool and fine), but wtf is going on with acting in big games (aside from daniels from the wire ♥), it's just weird pauses, the faces could be emotive sometimes, but not always, dramatic but unrealistic poses and positioning.
Strange disconnect tbh, i wonder if i got unused to aaa shenanigans or oblivion voice acting is still the golden standard for big rpg games. But i think tomb raider was fine like 10 years ago? gta 4/5 was also passable, maybe it's scroll wheels dialogue problem? but then it's easy to fix, just don't do 1s pauses, and record dialogue in tandem? It's not active dialogue ffs, why does it have feeling of being recorded separately.

been enjoying Avowed, my biggest complaint is basically the exact same complaint I have about every single open world western RPG which is that my character just doesn't feel unique enough and the world doesn't feel simulated enough. Like I feel like every game in the genre since Daggerfall has been walking down a path of streamlining gameplay and tightening the writing, and that's fine, but there's this totally unexplored territory where they could go the entire opposite direction and make a game where you are a smol bean in a big simulated fantasyverse.
The only counter examples that come to mind are Dwarf Fortress Adventure Mode, Caves of Qud, uhhhh that one game that's like a simulation of being in middle ages Scandinavia...
I always wonder how miserable your typical mid-tier MBA who has never programmed in their life but is an “AI specialist” and posts all day on linked in are.

I Challenge RFK Jr to boxing match.
I send the challenge to national newspapers, in a letter calling the Democrats weak and blaming this administration on politicians and their billionaire sponsors being upset at the multiple successful union drives and strikes during Biden's administration. And make it clear that the politicians won't help so we all have to take this fight in our own hands.
RFKJ takes the bait, and I beat up a 60 year old man. The rest will be history.

Sometimes need to know weather info for other places for a couple of tasks at work, and right after reading about IRS mass firings, found out that the NOAA is getting mass firings.
Complained to a couple of coworkers "well there goes weather dot gov" and one of them said "I don't care what they cut as long as it gets inflation down."

If I was old or inexperienced with technology I could very easily be swindled out of so much money for shit I don't need.

Hate how US media is so omnipotent that it affects local culture. Younger people are calling themselves “Latino,” which is something we don’t often do, and white Latin Americans have learned “white-passing.” They love using that to prove they don’t have white privileged and aren’t really white. I’ve seen white Guatemalans with blonde hair and blue eyes saying this because they get a tan from being outside all day.
GTA IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony was more fun than the base game and TLaD by a good deal. I think overall San Andreas is a better game though, the missions were more fun and the tone was better for what GTA is trying to be. Not the biggest fan of GTA overall but it's nice to be completing these games and scratching them off of my backlog, so it's still worth it for me.

The discussion around Conclave (2024) is decroded.
::: spoiler spoiler So many people talking about the twist while misunderstanding it. Some think that Vincent is transmasculine (or even transfeminine!) despite the movie spelling out very clearly that he's intersex and didn't know until late into his life. All the discussion of the twist is so superficial, like it's just supposed to be for shock, instead of engaging with the way the character himself spells out how his existence is an example of the ambiguities the Church struggles with. The themes of the movie couldn't be more clear! Yes, Tedesco is a goofy vapelord, and if you ever meet real world tradcaths you'll find they're extremely common in real Catholic spaces and they behave in even goofier ways.
I even saw someone say "the movie isn't really for tradcaths it's more for the Francis lib types. No! The whole point of Bellini's failed campaign is that liberal compromise and leaser evilism is ineffective and only lends more strength to reactionaries and corrupt bad actors such as Tremblay! It rejects liberalism!

Objectively I have a cushy job but it’s making me so anxious and depressed. I wish I’d just like followed my father’s footsteps (against his advice) and became a trucker. Maybe not gone the overly physically intensive route he did, he has to leave the cabin to do loading and unloading himself a lot which isn’t common. Like just driving around alone listening to podcasts seems nice. I just hated the constant do-nothing meetings, or doing completely pointless and ambiguously defined tasks. I really can’t keep doing this, but I can’t find an alternative. I keep applying to other jobs in bursts and getting hopeless after hearing nothing back.

I was thinking about why American patriotic nationalistic propogantistic films can't be sincere and can't risk being cringe. Compare Top Gun vs RRR or Wolf Warrior II. Part of it has gotta be that America doesn't have a ton to be proud about and part of the myth making in RRR and Wolf Warrior II is the struggle against western imperialism lol.
I think you could have a successful action film in that genre but it's have to center people in the Concrete Universal. Like Django, that's a dope film and it is not afraid of sincerity or seeming silly and it has great moral clarity. You could make a movie about John Brown or the Black Panthers - Hollywood tried but American cultural institutions are somewhat unwilling to let that moral certainty stand for itself and also hedge their bets and don't aim for maximal sincerity, so you get weak TV series and films like The Good Lord Bird and Judas and The Black Messiah
Ironically, I think an exploitation genre film would work great. Not enough oversight from the big institutions, it's cheap and schlock so you can be as sincere as you want. I'm thinking of what about an American version of Monkey Man, the underdog rising up against corrupt institutions within the imperial metropole
::: spoiler talking about sex trafficking I was rewatching The Wire, got to season 2, every time I see those women getting walked from the strippers to the condo under armed guard to perform sex work under coercion, I think "the day will come when they rise up and kill their pimps and get their freedom"
So what about that kind of film, that would embrace the revolutionary aesthetic, you can talk about liberty and the American Ideal, you can kill a bunch of traffickers and corrupt cops and take down a network, it's Monkey Man but in the American heartland. And you can be super sincere and risk all the cringe you want, they would represent the Concrete Universal. I think it could be fun, it is an exploitation film though so it has all those failings 😬 (but exploitation films can still be fun as fuck) :::

I don't know if this has been the case for longer, but I've been checking r/europe this week, and each day literally all the threads are about Ukraine. Does Europe have nothing else going on?
no more "USA taking the minerals means they'll need to stay and defend them" cope. posters there have accepted that the USA has utterly betrayed them, and all that they sacraficed on America's behalf will have been for nothing, but they still believe their participation was entirely righteous and just path to take. every other post is fantasizing about making the EU a military super-power.
The peace deal is still gonna suck for Russia. they get part of 4 oblasts, which ukraine and other countries don't need to recognize, Azov stays, Kyiv stays in the west NGO-sphere and will keep electing anti-russia presidents, and ukraine will probably have very beefy tripwire force of EU soldiers deployed.

And I know he's gonna pull his bullshit about """"""helping""""" while his kids scream the entire time they're here and trash the house while never cleaning up after themselves or being asked to by their shitty parents as if anything he does makes up for having 5 kids who don't behave (not entirely their fault, their parents suck) around the entire time. And if I say he just does this to avoid watching the kids he decided to have im the asshole even though he's just on his fucking phone the entire time :::
Been trying out other jobsites besides indeed and just get a mess of emails and stuff for places I go and check that either aren't in my specifications or not even around anymore. Trying to get a government job in my town doing road work honestly I think I would prefer that vs retail but the process is slow though at least I hope it doesn't involve any pointless interview with a follow up maybe we'll call you to say nah

It's nice to have one again
Can't deny that I'm a tiny little bit concerned about the level of bloodthirst I'm seeing amongst europeans lately. Is it not pretty god damn obvious the americans aren't doing this to "stand up for freedom and democracy", just like every single other conflict they've ever participated in? Like trump is the only thing that screwed it all up and that Nordstream just kind of did that. They've thrown every ally they've ever had under the bus, and europe is cucked enough to think that this time is different.
People now unironically calling for EU/NATO boots on the ground in ukraine now that the yanks are potentially (hopefully?) fucking off. Do they think they're somehow immune to the realities of war due to our "superior culture"? As if 99% of our critical infrastructure wouldn't be vapourised by Oreshniks and other incredibly fucked up weapons that we don't have any answer to within half an hour? Fuckin "the russians wouldn't stand a chance against the combined might of europe!!!", I'm sure we would do great with our sixteen dudes and a tractor that we're left with at this point, out of which thirteen would desert immediately once they realize this enemy actually poses a threat.
What a fucking suicide cult, it's unbelievable. Stand among the ashes of millions dead and ask the ghosts if honor matters, or however that quote goes.
Doing food costing at work, which is above my pay grade and not my job as a cook, but 1) I don't do my job as a line cook and have been managing my manager during rushes and 2) I get access to the exact amount thst the owner is profiting off me and the math to prove it, which is great raise ammo when combined with me doing my boss's job and 3) it's actually pretty fun, filling out spreadsheets and doing math for work is kinda relaxing when you're usually cooking a lot of food really fast and yelling across rooms to tell people what to make and when. It's also hilarious how not prepared anything was before the chef got a one month deadline to do this, which is part of getting asked to help, the other is me and the other guy working on it know how to use excel and how to gather and process data cause he's got a geology degree and I'm just really into knowing stuff and sometimes that requires doing some amateur science. So I've been going back through what invoices we have, finding the weight and cost of items, converting thar weight to grams and then getting a cost per gram which can be thousandth of a cent. After that we get to go through the recipe book and use the data we gathered to figure out the cost of prep batches and then take that and weigh out food while.we make it to order to establish a rough cost per item. The owner gave us a fucking month. We're also supposed to do the rest of the job at the same time. I don't give any fucks about the deadline, not my sword to fall on if missed so I get to just kinda gather Intel at my leisure, my job is making food so if there's food to make I gotta do that, but as far as slow time activities go, it beats the hell out of cleaning or restocking.
I really need to get in on the ground floor of a place and be a head chef. I just don't wanna be management, but also I'm.doing that job now for less money and kinda like that people do what I say at work cause they trust me and not cause they have to. Aldo I'd have to deal directly with the owner and keep them happy and I would refuse to work to their benefit and not the workers, take your skim you fucking slimeball, I can't make it a co-op but there's no way I could be a manager for long, I hate owners so much. It's a conundrum, if anyone had money and wants to open a restaurant I'll relocate and have 2 other people that would as well and between us you'd have the best and cheapest vegan food in whatever city you're in. It sucks being at the point where being good at food has hit it's limit and I'd have to be some middle manager to move up
Edit: I have literally done food costing by meal for what I normally make at home for fun. My falafel wraps were the most cost effective at like $1 per. If you have a scale at home and want to see the math behind your meals, it can be useful
aww yeah I love spaghetti especially when I can make it as spicy as I want

Recent Chapo learning more about Musk's weird sexless life than I was expecting to hear
I’ve read stories of juniors only programming with ChatGPT and not understanding anything, which I still can’t imagine. I was doing a side project for someone with stuff I wasn’t familiar with, and besides having to fix everything ChatGPT was giving me it was mostly going fine. Then it made up and API call, and every form of correction I gave it it would be like “oh my bad I made up an api call, here is a working version” and it would either use the same made up api call or make up a new api call.
I’ve worked with people in my field who somehow got to more senior roles than me just copying and pasting stackexchange threads and see completely lost in peer programming sessions when one of them doesn’t work. Like I get this is a real phenomenon it’s just baffling, how do you not learn something having to constantly debug non functioning code. Like that in itself should be a learning opportunity?

Heres the story on how drinking twisted tea and whiskey together helped me get sober:
On one “project” I’m on I have 1-2 hours of meetings a week with close to a dozen other people. I think the entire project is to get count data and calculate some ratios of those counts. I say I think because having that many meetings complicates and confuses a trivial task so much that I don’t even know? I think this is just busy work while we get the paperwork done to access the data? I have no fucking idea.
I’ve been gassy for the last couplea days, but woke up not in pain this morning, which means I am due for the most satisfying fart you could ever imagine.
Finished Leviathan Wakes, it was kinda fun because of the emphasis on relatively grounded tech, but it suffers from "male sci-fi author syndrome" and had very weird liberal takes and some extremely strange moral character writing I don't want to spoil.

Got the flu shot recently and started masking again for the first time in yonks. No one else does it around here, but I really don't want to get sick, and it only makes sense, especially with the tourists around nowadays. Don't want some rando Oozian to give me the first human to human transmissible bird flu while I am out trying to buy groceries.
Also, random Wikipedia fact, Neapolitan ice cream was invented in fucking Prussia of all places, didn't expect that factoid today
I haven’t bothered checking GitHub comments recently, but what percent of them are just grindset guys saying irrelevant shit and thinking they’re “networking”? Like in a way I’m glad message boards are dead because I imagine that would’ve been their path. Any interesting discussion just leading to a thousand LinkedIn guys showing you their “portfolio”.
I complain a lot about the Youtube algorithm, but meta's is just hands down the fucking worst. I've followed a bunch of socialist pages and blocked rightwing pages on facebook, but I still have to fucking see Matt fucking Walsh or Barfstool Sports bullshit pop up on my feed as if I haven't already tried blocking this shit a million times. I really don't even know why I use it on mobile anymore. Desktop is a bit more tolerable since I have an extension that blocks pages I'm not following.
Feeling kinda good about things today. Nice to finally get the chance to get out of my shitty living situation, there's some organization happening at my workplace and the group therapy does at least help loosen the tongue a bit (had two pretty good long talks with old friends about serious topics in the last week).

Been playing a lot of Gates of Hell: Cheesefront on the dynamic campaign recently, as the Soviets, obvs. Listen, I love soviet tanks, beauties all, but...
If I could go back in time, I'd go and beg on my hands and knees for the soviets to add electric horizontal turret drives for more of their tanks!
The agony of having a turret with a turn time of a gajillion years makes my nerves cry out in pain! Please, stop relying on having a strong proletarian to jork a crankwheel at the speed of sound and just use the electricity from the engine instead to make the turret go spinny! I know you have some battery in there or else the headlights wouldn't work then, huh? Even if the dinky shells from a PzKw.III bounce straight of the glorious rolled steel of the KV-85, that doesn't ease my conscience as much as being able to aim and shoot the damn thing within a reasonable timeframe!
That's the only thing I'll completely hand to the Jerries, they had electric horizontal turret drives from the word go...

That scene in the fellowship movie where saruman stands on his roof and yells at a mountain to fuck up the fellowship is hilarious. In the book the weather was just bad. It was attributed to the mointain itself being pissed off, but that could go in the superstition direction.
It's been months since I've used any imitation stock or veggie bullion cubes and damn if I haven't adjusted greatly. Just been a cost cutting method but like I've upped my spice game adjusted my tastes and feeling pretty good about it all.
