No, yeah
Thank you! I don't think I ever watched more than one or two episodes of season 4
What show/movie is this meme from? I'm pretty well rounded, but I can't place it at all
Damn fine cup of coffee!
Yeah, that's a decent way to put it. Or a lack of a reasonable amount of empathy.
Edit: libertarians are Prosperity Gospel paladins with wisdom as their dump stat.
I'll disagree, slightly. They can also be:
- starting from flawed premises (aka "The world is a just place" or "a just god exists")
- Inexperienced edgelords
- Arguing in bad faith (or just "I've got mine, so fuck you")
I say this as someone who flirted with libertarianism in my early 20's due mostly to a conservative religious upbringing. I'm not super smart, but I flatter myself to say that I'm above average intelligence and education, and there was still a brief time in my life when libertarianism served like a valid ideology. It took actually reading some objectivist philosophy and simultaneously reexamining and then rejecting my religious background before the flaws became evident.
Maybe it's because I've become a pretty outspoken anti-theist, but after growing up and being exposed to better theological and philosophical arguments, I've come to the conclusion that Lewis is an overrated hack.
And yes, the Silent Planet books were absolute torture to get through.
It's not that they "no longer have the ability." Most people have never been able to comprehend things on that time scale when it's happening in real-time. It's only after the fact that people are able to look back and see clear signs and the early groundwork being laid.
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
Exactly. I think we actually "started" just by giving them coloring pages of cartoony fantasy creatures and characters and then making up stories about goblins and dragons on our morning walks, which in turn got them excited about their characters and miniatures and rolling dice
Our Raw Heart by YOB (2018) on the left and Grief's Infernal Flower by Windhand (2015).
For those that haven't heard these bands, they are both are fantastic stoner/doom releases, but within those subgenres, they couldn't be more different, IMHO.
YOB is more proggy and sludgy with some fairly mellow melodic songs and very deep, introspective lyrics. They are known for having pretty long songs, even by stoner/doom standards, with 10 songs over the 10 minute mark on their last three albums. Adrift in the Ocean and Beauty in Falling Leaves are both pretty good entry points.
Windhand is slow and heavy as fuck, with a pretty psychedelic sound and dreamy, reverby, clean female vocals, which I've heard called doomgaze. Frankly, there's not a bad entry point, but Grey Garden and Forest Clouds were two of the first songs that got me into doom in the first place
Time for some epic, doomed Mork Borg TPK's.
