    Counterpoint: look at those hands. Maybe they just weren’t great at some things.

    I’d believe they mastered lighting and painting techniques over accurate physical representation more than “Jesus was a perfect middle aged nippleless man with fucked up hands and that’s represented perfectly here”









  • “Freedom” to “free market” types is the freedom to do whatever you want with no consequences regardless of the impact to others.

    “Free market” means if you get duped or swindled then “you deserved it”.

    “Free market” means if it really causes harm then “people just won’t buy it”.

    “Free market” is way more what most people think anarchy is than what anarchists are advocating for.

    Anarchy is “if I want to do cocaine and I die, that’s on me, the government shouldn’t be allowed to control what I do with my body”

    Free market is “we should be allowed to add a little bit of cocaine to this baby formula so our brand beats out the competition and no one should be allowed to tell us we can’t”









  • That’s not it at all. Literally, my children told me, “I don’t want to go up, I just want to go to the houses with bowls”. But it’s not a lazy thing, it’s a social anxiety thing. We don’t chat with strangers, we don’t make small talk with people we don’t know, we don’t ask people things we can find out without asking people things. We’re socially awkward parents and we have socially awkward children.

    Millennials, the ones who would much rather text than call on the phone their dearest friends and closest relatives, are 35-40 years old. They’re the ones with halloweening children and those kids are just ask averse to face to face interactions with neighborhood residents as we are.
