  • Like some of these could be quite impactful but there’s no reasoning given for why any are moreso than no kings.

    Trying to create a viable third party for an electoral system is incongruent with the assumption that martial law is inevitable.

    Compulsory “I’m not advocating violence” … You’re saying “do a Luigi”

    Maybe say something about how mutual aid fills the gaps missed by the system and how if it grows then we can build systems with greater nuance and independence from the state thereby better protecting our communities against disasters and brutality from law enforcement.

    “Read a book” types are the fucking worst.

    Pedant here! The smog was a result of NOx emissions, not lead, but both were hazardous to public health which has always been the motivation for emission control.

    Climate change concerns were just marketing on legislation. If climate change was the actual concern then there would have been smaller engines with better economy. But that would of course reduce oil demand so it’s commie shit.

    I think the spotify shuffle+ algorithm weighs songs more when you’ve liked them more recently.

    I’m also fairly confident the artist’s contract impacts the weight as well, especially for suggested songs not in your playlist.

    Songs from the backlog get played, but at a much lower frequency. Random should have a relatively flat distribution, not a skewed bell curve.




  • That’s a minor sound when I do it if I understand correctly. Audible but light. I can flex the muscles in my jaw/tongue as one would to attempt to pop ears, but pushing out from the back of the mouth and pulling my jaw backwards. I think it slightly restricts blood flow and makes it turbulent past the ear. Sounds like pulsar tinnitus (probably not relatable) but constant as long as I hold it.
