why would you ever use a transition that wasn't a star wipe
while we're on the subject of phrases used by the left that i hate, "socialism or barbarism" is. really gross
like barbarism is a really loaded term and lots and lots of imperialist violence has been carried out based on who is considered "barbaric", so perhaps it's not the best word choice for someone who is ostensibly anti-imperialist
like my dude i hate capitalism but you and i have it infinitely, unfathomably better than anyone who has ever been enslaved.
this is also the reason why the phrase "wage slavery" makes my skin crawl
here is a list of times when it is acceptable to use the word slavery:
- when a human person is owned as actual property by another human person.
you will notice that it is a one item long list.
actually this is more relevant https://witches.town/media/pT5qppnKLoqEle0FHBc
racism as metaphor is always a fucking terrible idea. your hypothetical discrimination will *always* be different from actual real-life discrimination and SLAVERY. we can't just retreat into these magical worlds of pure logic where nothing exists but our thoughts. ANY time you are talking about discrimination you MUST keep in mind the actual, real suffering and death of actual, real people. philosophy is worthless if it can't tell us how to be better in the real world.
A Wiggy Board Game ? What Happens ?
1. how dare you insinuate i'm heterosexual
2. clearly the 70s had much better fucking music. duh
spotify keeps recommending me a playlist called "90's baby makers" and i've never been more insulted
let's play..... minecraft! https://www.twitch.tv/lycaonsgames #gameing https://witches.town/media/13lz7QOG-qCufiNMfDg
in ~1hr i'm going to (hopefully?) be playing minecraft (eventually with @MegalLobsterFace) over at https://www.twitch.tv/lycaonsgames #gameing https://witches.town/media/BoRn9x3CzBD538X9dpA
nothing had changed on my system network-wise and yet the minecraft server doesn't work anymore, so this is going to be an interesting 68 minutes.
y'all ever just get like a really weird email?
dogs are........ good
i'm getting bored of my music recommend me new music
i'm looking for stuff like:
- lcd soundsystem
- the mountain goats
- animal collective
- boards of canada
- aphex twin
- do make say think
- the dismemberment plan
- flying lotus
- the microphones
(obviously not like all of those at once but like any of those)
especially looking for more obscure stuff from like bandcamp or whatever
in any language that lets you use either single quotes or double quotes for strings i am fucking wildly inconsistent
i mostly use single quotes? but sometimes i use double quotes for complicated internal reasons i don't really understand
i have some code that's like
if(typeof arg === 'string'){
//do something
}
else if(typeof arg === 'object'){
//do something else
}
and looking at it makes me feel a deep shame
also the number of string compares i have to do because of javascript's lack of both enums and type literals makes my skin crawl
