esports is hilarious for how insecure it is about being video games and all the pageantry it piles around trying to be a "real" "sporting" competition for example in the very funny name just own being a nerd on a computer, it's ok and the normies actually think it's cool now and give you money for it, you don't see speedrunners trying to pass gaming off as "e-parkour" and why would they

Carthag Tuek posted:lol that i know what this is about from the description John Karl Kershaw (October 12, 1913 – September 7, 2010) was an American attorney best known for challenging the official account of the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr., claiming that his client James Earl Ray was an unwitting participant in a ploy devised by a mystery man named Raul to kill the civil rights leader. Kershaw was also a Southern secessionist and segregationist who helped found the League of the South. In 1998, he sculpted a Nathan Bedford Forrest Statue that has drawn wide criticism and mockery by national media.

After Denial eSports disbanded, Lengyel and the other members of the team played together under the name "YIKES!" which was later changed to "Arc 6" after being asked by Blizzard since the logo could not be used and the name was deemed unmarketable.[12][13][14] Clips from him playing chess began to gain traction on Reddit, especially on the subreddit r/LivestreamFail, and got other streamers to gain interest in the game.[citation needed] awesomeolion fucked around with this message at 05:13 on Feb 27, 2021 |

"At its release, the film was much criticized by Godzilla fans the world over. Kenpachiro Satsuma, the actor who portrayed Godzilla in the second series of films (1984–1995) walked out of a Tokyo screening and told reporters that, 'It's not Godzilla, it does not have the spirit."[12]

A screwdriver with apple juice instead of orange juice is an "Anita Bryant Cocktail".[9] Bryant was an American singer and spokeswoman for the Florida Citrus Commission during the 1960s and 1970s.[10] Starting in 1977, she became an anti-gay rights activist.[11] Because Bryant promoted orange juice, the gay community retaliated by boycotting it.[12] Gay bars across North America stopped serving screwdrivers[13] and invented this cocktail to replace it.[9] The sales and proceeds of the cocktail went to gay rights activists and helped fund their work against Bryant.[9] The campaign was ultimately successful as Bryant's activism damaged her musical and business career.[11][10] Her contract with the Florida Citrus Commission was left to expire in 1980 after they stated she was "worn out" as a spokesperson.[10][14] After that, gay bars started selling screwdrivers again.

The word turpentine derives (via French and Latin), from the Greek word τερεβινθίνη terebinthine, in turn the feminine form (to conform to the feminine gender of the Greek word, which means "resin") of an adjective (τερεβίνθινος) derived from the Greek noun (τερέβινθος), for the tree species terebinth.[5]

Carthag Tuek posted:the "blowing your nose, but in japan" ones the weeb ones are my new fav genre of wikipedia - here's an article one of them wrote about the japanese word for "epiphany" Satori (悟り) is a Japanese Buddhist term for awakening, "comprehension; understanding".[1] It is derived from the Japanese verb satoru.[2] In the Zen Buddhist tradition, satori refers to the experience of kenshō,[3] "seeing into one's true nature". Ken means "seeing," shō means "nature" or "essence".[3] Satori and kenshō are commonly translated as enlightenment, a word that is also used to translate bodhi, prajñā and Buddhahood. ... Satori is often used interchangeably with kenshō.[3] Kenshō refers to the perception of the Buddha-nature or emptiness. According to some authors, kenshō is a brief glimpse, while satori is considered to be a deeper spiritual experience.[citation needed] See also

Reception A review in The Times praises the book's academic rigor and humor, especially in some job examples, but altogether felt that Graeber's argument was "enjoyably overstated".[2] The reviewer found Graeber's historical work ethic argument convincing, but offered counterarguments on other points: that the average British workweek has decreased in the last century, that Graeber's argument for the overall proportion of pointless work is overreliant on the YouGov survey, and that the same survey does not hold that "most people hate their jobs". The reviewer maintains that while "managerial feudalism" can explain the existence of flunkies, Graeber's other types of bullshit jobs owe their existence to competition, government regulation, long supply chains, and the withering of inefficient companies—the same ingredients responsible for luxuries of advanced capitalism such as smartphones and year-round produce.[2] lol
