Not to disagree with your points, but the video for 'Deutschland' was clearly a case of 'what can we do to generate as much publicity as possible?

The dueling outrage over that video was hilarious. In one corner you had people going :ohdear: about the bit where they’re dressed in concentration camp uniforms and debating the appropriateness of that.

In the other you had shitheads mad that the allegorical personification of Germany was a black woman.

How many times did it vote for Biden?

Well, if something that didn't vote for biden is, by definition, not black then something that is the blackest black to ever black must have voted for him.

Now, voter fraud isn't really a thing, so I'd have to assume that this single instance of blackest black ever to black only voted once, as its its constitutional right.

Still, I would assume that it cast the votiest vote to ever vote.

It's a common spelling error. Loose and lose have different vowel sounds, but they're both long-o sounds, and English often spells long-o's with double o's. Say "coo" "too" and "lose" out loud and you'll hear it. Meanwhile "loss" has a totally different vowel but it's spelled one letter off from "lose."

Basically english spelling is hosed up and anything involving vowels is super hosed. This language desperately needs some diacritics.

edit: talking more or less neutral broadcast-grade American accents. I dunno what the scots or texas panhandle are doing maybe the spelling makes sense if you are one of those west virginians with an almost-Elizabethan accent.

It’s also a pretty big celebration for a lot of people. Imagine if your company made you work the 4th of July.

Sometimes I question my stance on the death sentence.

Meh, for every rear end in a top hat like that who 100% deserves it there are a hundred edge cases that the state shouldn’t be trying to kill.

Personally I’d rather let this rear end in a top hat or the Charleston church fucker play Xbox into perpetuity than keep going with some of the bonkers bad death penalty cases we’ve seen.

I look at it more of a power gradient thing and what the consequences are for getting it wrong.

First off the state has all the power. It can bring a basically infinite amount of resources to bear on squishing you. It is trying you within it’s own framework. It has the entire weight of the criminal justice system to try and convince people that you did it. Meanwhile you babe whatever you have. I hope you’re rich.

If the state kills a man that literally ends the universe as far as that individual goes. If they get it wrong that persons world ended for nothing. The costs to the person on the poo poo end of that power gradient are immense.

Meanwhile if the state keeps a truly mad dog killer locked away playing xbox for 80 years the cost to it is negligible. It’s a rounding error in the annual budget.

Basically the death penalty is the most profound example of punching down you can find.

I always hated "games" like that as a kid. I put the scare quotes around them because they were basically just gimmicky toys that were fun for like ten minutes then you got bored. Hungry hungry hippoes type crap. Zero strategy, just slap crappy mechanical thing and try to get bigger number.

Like, you can sit down and play a few games in a row of even something as basic as connect four. You can kill an hour or two with a sibling and that glorified tic tac toe.

There was nothing worse than being at some relative's house and being told to go keep yourself busy with the game closet only to find crap like hungry hungry hippoes.

No one wants to tangle with a crazy person over dumb bull poo poo like waiting an extra 5 min to buy toothpaste or whatever. On a personal level you can get pretty hosed up in even a simple fight. On a legal level it’s just a giant loving headache even if the other person totally deserves it.
