diesen “Network State” reverse-propagandabegriff kann man voll schlecht im internet suchen. In dem Post nehmen die so halb an, das man weiß was das ist, während die anderen zusammenfassungen des Begriffs immer nur leicht utopisch klingen. Es ist ja nicht tatsächlich “eine online Community mit einigen Werten, die sich durch ihre eigenen Regelungen, Kryptowährungen, und Besitztümer ausdrückt”. Zählt das, wenn man die Regeln seiner Social Platform ändert um seine meinung hervorzuheben? Ist gemeint, dass der tech-Regierungs-Komplex der USA plant die Regierung durch irgendwas mit privatfirmen und Krypto zu ersetzen? (bei dem weg: ist das Haarspalterei, diese unterscheidung bei einer Trump-Regierung überhaupt zu untersuchen?)

the fact that two mostly unrelated consequences are tied together with “and” in the title had me laughing

I’m so sorry that some people in this thread have much worse nightmares than I have. I don’t recall having any nightmares that you might call visually grotesque.

When I was in High School, I apparently discovered that looking at a person signals interest in the person, and that it’s possible to look at something in this way on accident, or at least without conscious planning. From this I concluded into a mild obsession to basically be conscious of what I am looking at at almost every point in time. In hindsight, it feels kind of like the “you are now breathing manually” meme. This basically only happened with two people, along with it slightly reinforcing my bias against looking at girls, because I’m probably gay anyway, let them not get any ideas.* (this thought is completely stupid in any other way than being moderately considerate. it probably didn’t do anything anyway, because I’m not very socially active and had approximately 1-2 friends.)

• The girl who sat on the mirror-opposite side of the room from me in math class, which, If I didn’t change seats on purpose, which I did when possible, basically put her in the center of my default field of view when not looking at the teacher. (Seating and desk arrangements in my country are very exciting.) She was really good at staring back, which is basically why I noticed that people care when they’re being looked at. I don’t really know whether she did this on purpose. I had nothing in common with her that would count as knowing her personally, but we did look pretty similar, so much that some people just told me this without being asked. She’s the only person wearing a tie on one of the photos from graduation. I didn’t feel a legitimate reason to care much, but basically, I cared because of how much I was constantly thinking about not looking at her. To my friend, I expressed myself as being kind of scared of her, though I never really said that I was scared that anyone capable of critisizing me would find out how much space this bullshit took up in my mind sometimes, or misrepresent this as being attracted or something. I also remember believing at some point that she was behind me on my way to school, (in some parts of europe, people bike to school,) as well as just actually seeing her on some paths beyond doubt, and thinking a moderate amount about what path she takes the least, which might just have been all of them, because of how rarely I saw her on the way.
• The other guy isn’t really at fault or anything. He’s still really nice to be with now that I’ve gotten over this somewhat, though I see him rarely, which probably contributed to the brainworms spreading.

*(I cultivate an off-internet bonus genre of brainworms where being asexual reinforces my faux-antiquated fear of being perceived as attracted to someone, which may or may not make sense)

thanks. I didn’t know that. I was duckgoobing with less nuance.

1. don’t play any games on windows

ich schieb sie einfach nach unten, dann kann der nächste sie zerschneiden

Ich find die aber schön!!

Einfach ein Simple Tab Groups Backup einspielen.

This is a very interesting topic. Because I know some of my detail knowledge about the world or my experiences really takes its time to remember itself properly, i can only say that I also don’t really care about my gender.

das Bild ist echt älter als dieses Jahr?

This but with the slightly more moderate neoliberal pseudo-friend adjacent I have at university

thats not how comedic timing works. You can’t just put that in the title. I would expect people read the title first. also I am slightly upset that cannibalism is framed as “evil” here, but you know, your opinion.

I don’t even know which way the split would go. Many people i know studying computer science first year have a macbook, in what seems disproportionate. Maybe just general university student bias? also apple walled garden* lol *on the iPhone

I like the Onion’s cartoons, but they’re also often confusing. At least for this one, I get what it’s trying to say, though the meta-ironic huge labels, extremely bad puns, (in this case also a rather incoherent speech bubble from the dad) make this a fun experience too. But other cartoons like https://theonion.com/stars-and-strips/ also have meaning that I don’t get, or the godfather references or whatever. maybe others appreciate this complexity better. Is it because I’m too young, do they put references to old media often? The Godfather is from 1972. Also, do you think they’re doing this big literalness in the dialogue and the huge labels just to make fun of cartoons and how they influence what you think about the characters? Or is there some trend in other cartoons, where some Cartoons are seen as special for being very literal?

not completely correct! 19

omg it’s the gender neutral version!
