  • I really appreciate seeing an article written by someone who is actually familiar with the culture and history of the site.

    Qanon and Actual Nazis were not 4chan norm back in the day. The alt right nazi hateful shit was posted but it was more like larping/shock value immature crap and nothing like what we see in the mainstream social/media today. Misogyny too. I'm not denying that there weren't people there who meant it but it was 99% shitposting. There's also the hacktivism, social activism, soooooooo many memes like as substantial as YouTube as establishing the humor culture of the internet. I find the site so fascinating and much more than some cesspool of evil it became.

    It is weird it is gone. I suspect moot is not so interested in sticking his neck and wallet out to protect the freedom of speech for facscists trying to destroy democracy and that's why it's not back. I'm pretty sure 4chan has been down before for various reasons more substantial than hacking but it could be fabricated memory

  • The difference is this is tracking and targeting minors.

    And just because it is the status quo does not mean the general public is aware of it or the actual extent. It needs to be spelled out to them how and why.

    Honestly I find it hard to believe any teens are on Facebook now, maybe IG is still cool? Nothing like before. Idk I don't think teens are on those platforms really

  • I honestly don't believe that trump is doing some intentional stock market grift. That would require foresight, planning, and self control despite ego.maybe someone gave hime some. Instructions or something but he sure as shit doesn't care about those.

    Next up Republicans are gonna try to paint him as a loose "Pitt bull" when really he is just a loose cannon they can't control.

    Their faces aren't worth the cost of eggs

  • Remember in 2015 people were ridiculed for comparing him with "he's literally hitler"

    My ambien just kicked in but me thinks he was trying to imply that the hama a refugees were treated horrible. And with no kindness like nazis did. So your captors are even worse than the naxis !

    I think that is maybe the goal in that pudding brain.

  • As you get older you will eventually be considered both. For example people who grew up believing they were gen X might technically be labeled millennial nows. Like there are millennials who are in their 40s

    First Gaming PC

    I have had playstation for a while, but aside from Petz, Rollercoaster tycoon, and the sims <4 I never had a pc that could handle games.

    I was gifted a used custom gaming PC cuz the owner was getting a new one! I have an $80 steam gift card I'd love to spend on multiple pop culture classic games I've missed out on and can only enjoy on PC/Xbox.. my favorite are 3rd person rpg with exploration as an important element in learning about the lore/story. Some sort of reward for exploring thar isn't loot.

    • Control
    • Horizon zero dawn
    • Persona 5/royal Those three are S tier life changing, think about forever types
    • Bishop trilogy (2 is best @me bro)

    • Persona 4 golden
    • Final fantasy, 7, 9, 10, 13, 15
    • Catherine Full Body
    • Alan Wake
    • Ni no Kuni2
    • The forgotten city
    • Until dawn
    • A plague tale 1 innocence

    dues*** ex and disco elysium : and ps plus catalog discussion

    ***Edit: deux ex

    So I have access to the ps plus catalog. I'm really excited they have disco elysium the final cut, and dues ex mankind divided

    My brain has muddled these two awesome franchise pop culture knowledge where I feel like I'm more or less able to go into either blind and I wanna preserve that! The thing is it's not really clear to me for either title if I'd be playing a sequel (or something that is better enjoyed with prior context)

    So I guess my question is for these two games, what should ideally be the order placement? Even if I just watch a yt essay on a previous game I don't have access to just to have some good groundwork context.

    I also am curious what games you discovered that is available through similar subscriptions. Were you pleasantly surprised? Just meet average expectations?

    Every really nice pen I have ever owned was because it somehow fell into my possession. I use them randomly sometimes as a special treat for myself.

    Ya'll jealous of my black 08 prismacolor fine line marker and pilot precise v7 rt.

    Okay what the fuck is that last one? Why does it sound like a sports car marketed to males 14-26?

    Hopping off the Hype Train

    Is there a really popular product, technique, or otherwise viral trend that you tried and it fell short somehow?

    What was it, what were your expectations, and what was the result?

    (LOL no shame, totally posting this in the makeup community if I can find it)
