"paid off and discarded" is an aptly succinct description of straight up UBI and nothing else.

She's right that people need something in their lives that gives them purpose and meaning. Capitalism took away community and religion and replaced it with employment.

I understand that this is meant to be a rebuttal of Yang style NEETbux, but I think human society can come up with something to replace the workplace if it has to.

I mean, yeah, but she's also clearly speaking of the current political context, not about what to do after we have socialism.

Watch Steven Universe, Gravity Falls, and 90000 hours of pregnant elsa spiderman videos and you'll get a proportional sample.

UBI seems like a good idea but it always comes with the unspoken trade off which is the sacrifice of the safety net.

It does not and the people who want it to replace other parts of the welfare state are very open about that.

It’s a great show for five year olds. Fred Rogers is a saint. But it’s boring as gently caress to anyone not five. That meow meow meow meow lady puppet was trippy though.

I have somehow never seen EWS, so the plan is to watch it tomorrow before work and then listen to this instead of doing work because it's Friday.

Also people are guessing it's Mullen

Imagine watching Eyes Wide Shut and not realizing it’s an exploration of a man’s feelings of inadequacy. Pretty weird that Nicole Kidman’s character’s revelation about her infidelitous fantasy triggers her husband to bumble around New York until he finds an elite sex cabal that represents the true masculine sexual domination he believes he’s entitled to, yet is excluded from!

Talk shit, get bzzzt.

The calmness and sheer, unrelenting kindness is I think a big reason why "wholesomeness" has come about as a meme... genre? Flavor? Mr Rodgers is and was a fictional character who embodied all the theoretical good parts of Old White Guy Religion living. It's a good thing and a bad thing at once. It can be a role model and perhaps an emotional first starting point when it comes to forming revolutionary spaces. But it can also be used as a commercial, potentially, for the nazis and their allies to try to latch onto opportunistically.

for my terrible post history...
Yeah he went into detail about how Kubrick was likely killed for attempting to uncover a LSJ-esque sex cabal and also speculated that Kubrick was attempting to ruin the marriage between Kidman and Cruise because her dad was a bigtime sex-haver or something

Can’t wait for the epic awesomeness that is contained within the ‘sode. They might just win (or break) the internet. Well played, good sirs :neckbeard:
