Now go further back. Where does the latin word nucula come from?

What do my YouTube recommendations say about me?
Reasonable doubt that the guy is a cryptofascist is disqualifying enough without the need for certainty. I do believe that people can change, and there are circumstances where I would accept someone like Platner into the progressive movement, but not in a leadership position, and not before he has proven himself with actions rather than just words. A lot of progressives - yourself included - are so desperate for leadership that they're willing to look past several huge red flags for someone who says the right things. Consider for a moment the possibility that there are people out there who are aware of this particular vulnerability and willing to take advantage of it.
Topology is one of those sciences that is hyper-niche to the point that it seems like it would have very limited scope, but when you take a closer look it's actually studying something fundamental.
I think the biggest predictor of whether people will vibe with Outer Wilds is how much natural curiosity they have and how self-motivated they are. Outer Wilds doesn't push players towards any particular objective, it instead tries to give players questions so they go looking for answers. Of course a game that relies so heavily on intrinsic motivation isn't going to be for everyone, but the thing that makes the game so difficult for some people to get into is the same thing that makes those who do get into it love it so much.
Some non-spoilery advice if you decide to give it another shot:
Use the ship log every loop and read what's new. Look at the biggest cards in rumor mode and try to find them. There are several "secret" locations in the game that many of the hints point towards which contain information that puts the game's mystery into perspective and gives players a sense of direction and purpose. In the playthroughs I've seen where they didn't finish it was almost always because they played for a long time without finding any of the "big" secret locations.
I agree, I just wanted to emphasize that this isn't a new development or an aberration, but the natural result of the perverse incentives that exist in a capitalist economy.
They're still heavily used in Twitch communities regardless of the political or apolitical nature of the stream. Pepe doesn't need to be reclaimed because the fascists failed to monopolize it. It doesn't belong to them any more than wojaks do.
Use your words please. I'm not going to sit here and try to interpret what message you intended to convey with a political cartoon made in an entirely different context.
Well they're not having brunch now, are they? Take the opportunity and meet people where they're at. I'll take a radlib willing to take to the streets over a chronically online communist sitting in their basement complaining any day.
Show up to one of these and start singing the Internationale, you'll discover a lot more comrades there than you would expect. Being embarassed to protest side by side with liberals just demonstrates insecurity about how powerless you feel, which is understandable, but the cure to that is taking action, even if it's just joining the parade of the liberals. Like it or not that's where the energy and will to resist is, and it will adjust its methods as the situation evolves.
We've been in that stage for a long time, it's just getting some extra attention now because Veritasium made a video.







I grew up southern baptist and it was an all-white church. I think I remember a time when there was 1 black family in attendance because they had just moved here. They didn't come back for a second time. The southern baptist church split from the northern baptist church over slavery. Guess which side of that issue the southern baptist church was on?
