Fair! I think it's more interesting when you're making the golem though.

Food that isn't like sentinelese or an equivalent is going to be incredibly impacted by trade and immigrants, and it's one of the most beautiful things humans do. Even when it comes from awful things like colonialism. Have you ever had a fucking banh mi? A medieval king would cry when he tasted it.

Man, YouTube recommended me the Rich Men North of Richmond song and it would be such a good song if it weren't for the weird welfare rant that especially makes no sense in the context of people starving. I know the discourse on it is tired, but it's a really good song otherwise. What a shame!

I don't even recall any stories of creating a golem that tells you it can't do what it's blatantly doing. It's such a bizarre thing that even Philip K Dick in the apex of a high never thought to write about it, and yet

The way to kindly explain this to an American, imo, is that a hot dog, a hamburger, and a NY pizza slice are all American foods. It's silly to pretend those are German and Italian when they don't exist there.

My understanding is that it's Sephardic cooking of British ingredients. Don't think I've heard of it being Peruvian, but it would make sense for Peruvian cuisine to be similar for fish through Spanish influence.

Fish and chips is both Jewish and British in the same way and it's not very controversially British.

I think what most "leftism"currently is, is just the vestiges of punk culture with no outlet because punk is essentially dead. Most leftists are just left liberals, (great!), but there's no great punk album to make a soundtrack or a dress code. The dress code is only being ironic online.

As an outsider, I immediately feel disgust at the st George flag, and feel essentially nothing at the other. Basically just "good for you". No one who uses the first flag is well meaning as far as I've seen. It's essentially the same as Confederate flags in America. No?

I think Kant is good, but he's especially bad when he's saying there are these semi religious sins you can perform that are bad regardless of lack of impact, and this is a popular genre on Bluesky.

Bad Bunny is sorta the modern sound I like less bc it sounds too similar to American emo trap. I think he's a talented artist and I like some of his stuff, but I'm less enthusiastic. J Balvin sounds familiar and I think I liked him. Checking out Maluma and Farruko now, bc I've never heard them.

I have no real strong opinions on Google stock and imagine they still have room to grow. I was just making a joke that if they aren't hiring very proficient weirdos and are instead hiring the most bureaucratically safe candidates, then they are probably becoming a more mature company.

This is true, but I think there are features concerning face shape that are less affected. You can see an image of a woman's face from some indigenous tribe and have a good guess as to gender. Also trans people *also* often perform those rituals. I don't think it's 100% *not* constructed though.
Dark Rawls (@unhwut.bsky.social)

Dark Rawls (@unhwut.bsky.social) reply parent
Arguably constructed in part, (there are forms of dress etc. that could provide more/less stealth for trans men or trans women), but I think it's *generally* easier to form a body, (and particularly a face), into an outwardly masculine one, and more difficult to do the opposite once formed.
Dark Rawls (@unhwut.bsky.social) reply parent
I don't think it's totally constructed.
Dark Rawls (@unhwut.bsky.social) reply parent
It's fine. I understand the arguments against, but if it's very animating, you have more serious problems. Also, you should be thankful you said this on Bluesky, because I made a minor reply on this subject on Twitter once and got spammed with angry replies from intactivists for over a year.

And it goes in the other direction. Russian homophobic laws were taken up in Hungary, and Fidesz members gave advice to the DeSantis administration to pass essentially the same laws.

This is a good point, and also some of the most popular outrages somehow become international, but also aren't Iraq related. I was on a train in Eastern Europe during Covid and a Romanian man, after discovering I was American, tried to spark a conversation about how awful and corrupt Fauci was.

It's technically not *required* but that's a lot of angry young people expecting a beer if you don't give it, and if you do, it's guaranteed that someone will illegally sell their beer and you'll end up with drunks working on live voltage or heavy machinery.

On a lighter note inspired by Trump continually serving NG troops with orders before they get a pay boost, the Navy generally gives every sailor 2 opened beers on every 45th day underway without going to shore. As a result, carriers frequently end up going underway for 44 day periods.

My opinion on "it's useless for art. Real art requires a brush on canvas, or a human hand on a camera" is that it should be taken as seriously as a gen xer at a bar loudly complaining that real music requires people playing instruments and that's why electronic music isn't art.
Dark Rawls (@unhwut.bsky.social) reply parent
I don't personally think there's a big difference when done well, but when you have an incredibly accessible form of art creation, and a lot of artists who have fundamental opposition to its use as a tool, then you end up with a ton of art that lacks artistic quality.

I don't think The Smiths have an actual, true, skippable track, and Morrissey is a huge part of that, obviously. Arguably, he's the biggest part. And yet, Morrissey's solo work? Imminently skippable. This is what philosophers call a "paradox".
