Everybody is allowed the power of their voice because\n\n3. or abridging the freedom of speech\n\n--follows that! Freedom of speech is nowhere to be found in China because citizens are watched constantly. They cannot speak their truth.

Hunt those camel jockeys down and stab them with crucifixes!\" is illegal, but \"The Prophet Mohammed married an 8 year old and consummated the marriage 4 years later; was he a pedophile, or an ephebophile?\" and somebody goes and burns down mosques or the speaker's home because of those words, is legal).

There is a reason the Free World wept with France a few years back when Charlie Hebdo, known as a local rag iirc, published a comic featuring a likeness of Mohammed and was attacked. That is a collective voice silenced in the face of an oppressor. This can be likened to the picture of Tank Man being banned in China; a defiant man's stand for freedom led to death.

My theory was all but confirmed with the Tuff Nut Donut shop, they took the hexagonal Nut that was the sign and increased the poly count to make it a near perfect circle. You can see that the Nut on the left looks correct... so their auto-increase-poly-count program snagged that right Nut and did it's thing.

This unfortunately never happened!\n\nThe truth of the situation was that I was a long time fan of Lowtax and Something Awful, I reply girl'd him a bunch, and I ended up sending him pornographic imagery. This is because I was doing porn. Cam girling. Hustling my body for internet bucks. Sending my nudes to a hero was an introduction more than it was a rendezvous in France! \n\nWe ended up chatting about games and other digital aged things and he ended up wanting to play some coop games, Earth Defense Force: Iron Rain, and Warhammer: Inquisitor. He gifted me Inquisitor no problem, thanks to Steam, but we ended up having issues with a PSN card he bought for me in order to purchase it due to country restrictions. So he purchased it on amazon and just shipped it instead. This is when Ashley noticed the credit card bill and accused him of having an affair with me. \n\nShe attacked me during this time for posting in defense of Rich, which I've put into an album below full of other images relating to this case/context. At first I thought she was just spiteful Rich had someone calling out lies, but I then realized she was actually very very serious about the affair accusation and it's more of a case of hurt ex-girlfriend bullying new girl into feeling less than her.\n\nWe never had an affair! Beyond me sending some of my work to him, if you will, all we generally talked about were: His painful feet, missing his kids, the internet is hell, social media as a bigger picture sort of topic, society, gaming, and how he felt completely unheard in this case against him and his down fall. Everyone just enjoyed the funny man dancing for money in misery, too proud to cry for help. He's Lowtax! He'll find a way! He'll just be like Maddox or some other internet legend.\n\nRichard built a website which defined internet culture as we know it today. His legacy was stolen from him by these women in particular and his image was smeared by many, many quick judging and self-righteous users. \n\nHe wasn't perfect. I don't want anyone to think I loved this man, that I wanted to be this man, or anything like that. I was a concerned fan turned friend who checked up on him and was there watching him struggle since the Shmorky downfall. I tried to keep him occupied with better games than he was subjecting himself to on Gaming Garbage. I asked him how he was, he'd deflect, and I'd ask again to try to see how well he was swimming. I knew he was suicidal two weeks before he did it, and even asked him not to. As much as a digital friend across an imaginary line can do for him, really. \n\nWe ended up creating a few NFTs together before he died, they're not the focus here so I'm not linking them, but I just wanted to get out that I'm not trying to cash out on my friend's death. I'm already a minimalist who doesn't need more to be happy. Games, Weed, Crow Food. Computer parts would be dope but that's about it. If Tank Girl was computer focused, I'd be her. I get by on social credit. \n\nAll I want is you to rethink the Lowtax situation, and realize that he wasn't the monster he was painted to be. He never felt he was heard in life, so I'm doing what I can to make sure he's not buried in the wife beater with a comic sans \"LOWTAX\" on it that everyone bought online.\n\nSomething Awful will always be his legacy, for better or worst.\n\nIf there's any errors with the video rendering, please leave your morals on piracy in the comments. \n\nAlbum Link: https://imgur.com/a/tApgw8u\n\nI'll happily provide any other context and logs that are requested if deemed relevant to the case. Ask Ashli and Logan if they'll do the same.", "Being a top tier piece of shit and bailing on his obligation to his children. Stay shitty.", "He hadn't seen two of his daughters for two years and was having his other hidden from him for the longest time. Rich talked endlessly about his missing his kids. They were his favorite part of life. His children were weaponized against him. \n\n\nHe was left in pretty terrible pain due to nerve damage from his spinal problems. His feet were purple and moving around became difficult. His money was being held in escrow so he had to resort to borrowing. He wasn't enjoying life anymore.\n\nThere's enough evidence against both Logan Day and Ashli to make them non-credible. There may be more evidence coming forth soon too." ]	5	videos	I discussed the Richard "Lowtax" Kyanka situation on The Dick Show and my involvement

I think that’s changing now amongst younger people, but in the past, it’s always been spoken of by snobs. I’m surprised they haven’t put it in more. I’ve gone on a couple of wine tangents and those haven’t gotten in. Now, I will say that, in the past, when I would go on a tangent, if Jemaine [Clement] didn’t know about what I was talking about, he would cut it with the right assumption that, well, the viewers aren’t going to know about this so it’s just going to be boring. And wine is the subject he doesn’t know anything about and doesn’t give a shit about. That may have been the reason why wine hasn’t made it into the show yet.\n\nhttps://uproxx.com/tv/mark-proksch-interview-what-we-do-in-the-shadows-season-3/", "This is my local news show.

Not paper towels or toilet paper but food does, medicine does, and batteries too.

Note: you can still be flooded if you're not in a flood zone.\n\nTake reasonable precautions, don't dig a bunker in your yard, and any of this is plausible then consider moving to a safer area.

Or bigfoot. Or psychic Bigfoot.", "Hardly. That whole bigfoot thing is blown way out of proportion. Here's how I remember it, having watched it unfold real-time: \n\n* 2012: Les Stroud appears on Joe Rogan's podcast in its early days, on episode #287. Joe (who has since turned his back on \"outlandish\" conspiracy theories to embrace ones about ancient history and present-day politics) was into Bigfoot at the time. This was when Joe still had doubts about the moon landing, believed in aliens, and flogged other such tentpole conspiracy fare. If you think Joe Rogan still believes in that stuff, it pales in comparison to how he used to be--just look up his episodes with Steven Greer, if you can find them. Anyway, Joe asked Les whether he had any Bigfoot stories, and it turned out Les did. But Les' Bigfoot stories were more like \"I've heard some strange things in the woods; I can't say for sure it was Bigfoot, but I do believe we don't know about everything that's out there\". It was very benign. Just a campfire story.\n\n* 2013: Nearly one year later, Joe films a show called \"Joe Rogan Questions Everything\". The first episode is about Bigfoot hunters. Joe, now having had a look at cryptozoologists up close, realizes he can't be associated with these people because they're completely crazy. He turns to mocking them for their stupidity despite believing in (or at least keeping an open mind about) Bigfoot himself. He later does a comedy bit about it, and pretends like he was never onboard. \n\n* 2014/15: Probably as a result of the popularity of that JRE podcast, Les shoots a Survivorman miniseries on Bigfoot. I haven't watched it, but I don't think it was completely serious. Survivorman ended its run that same year and Les moved on to do a show about surviving with indigenous cultures around the world. Thus in what was Survivorman's last season, he seemed to let it jump the shark: he didn't just hunt Bigfoot but went to Transylvania to hunt Dracula, and so on. Discovery was becoming overloaded with reality TV drivel as well as more and more outlandish stuff to compete with the History Channel and its success with Ancient Aliens. I suspect the network pushed Les to embrace his open-mindedness about Bigfoot, even if he didn't believe he'd find one while shooting a TV show in the woods. \n\n* 2015: Les reappears on the JRE podcast, episode #632, to promote the Bigfoot show. He's doing a media tour, of course he's going to try to drum up interest. Joe is an utter fucking dick and mocks Les Stroud with this glibness he developed from his experience on the Joe Rogan Questions everything show. To Joe, Les is now \"one of the crazies\". When I was listening at the time, I felt it was hypocritical in the extreme; I don't believe in Bigfoot, but Joe was practically begging Les for Bigfoot stories 2.5 years prior on Les' first JRE appearance, during which time Joe took those stories as gospel. Joe then does a show on Bigfoot on network television--the same thing Les was doing!--and now is trying to hamstring Les' media tour? Fuck that. \n\n* 2019: Looking at IMDB now, I can see Les did a comedy film with Tom Green called \"Interviewing Monsters and Bigfoot\". Suffice it to say he doesn't take it seriously. I'm not sure he ever has. \n\nTL;DR: Joe Rogan is largely to blame for Les Stroud's association with Bigfoot, which he hypocritically mocked him for. Les Stroud is not the nutter Rogan made him out to be.", "That's exactly the kind of topic you want to talk about while doing drugs", "Love this guy.

Why did females evolve to prefer males who do this? The answer, in all things evolutionary psychology is: because the females who just so happen to prefer this left more and healthier offspring. They left male offspring with giant fan tails, and female offspring that were attracted to giant fan tails.\n\nOkay, but how exactly does this trait confer selective advantage? Why should a male with tail to tell out-compete a male with ...here's a crazy thought - camouflage! Seems like that'd be an advantage, right?\n\nYes, camouflage would help an individual male to avoid predators. But what camouflage doesn't do is communicate anything about the male so that the female can distinguish more healthy/more fit from less healthy/fit. See, in all sexual species, the males perform displays that are public and costly. Costly - meaning, the male has to have some skin in the game.\n\nRams butt their heads together. The stronger (more healthy/fit) ones win the fight, and get the ladies. [Bower birds build bowers](https://blog.nature.org/science/2021/01/04/bowerbirds-meet-the-bird-worlds-kleptomaniac-love-architects/), crickets chirp, etc. etc.\n\nPeacocks grow that giant fan tail, which proves that they have the energy to grow it, and that they can survive predators since they don't have camouflage. There's a theory too that parasites degrade their ability to produce bright colors, so they're also advertising parasite resistance.\n\nAnd that's why they show off.\n\nIncidentally, there is variation in every population - there has to be for evolution to work. So there are always females who don't like peacocks with gaudy tails. I'm sure those females end up teaching peahen-studies courses and inventing narratives like, \"toxic peacocking\" and claiming this is all a conspiracy to oppress them.\n\nBut the truth is, the males are the way they are because the females choose them and mate with them, and then leave more and healthier offspring than the females who have other preferences.", "That is a very strange choice of music.", "Because they're cocky" ]	4	videos	Why do peacocks show off?

That's why they hit the Pentagon and World Trade Center. Once we were in chaos, they would be able to engage in further devastating acts.

Europe and The U.K. are filling with Muslims; many who are either supportive or passive when it comes to radical Islam. This type of maneuver doesn't work as well when governments act with vigilance and openly recognize the threat.\n\nThe western world (being superior) has a lot of empathy, and has since felt really bad about some of the overreach in the 2000s, which has made us overcorrect in the opposite direction....so, now a lot of liberals and far left individuals find themselves supporting Islam in unhealthy ways. \n\nThe terrorists didn't plan this part; we're just fucking ourselves over as our good efforts for racial/cultural equality are used against us, and the radical beliefs/individuals use that movement as a trojan horse. Again, this wasn't their plan; it's the terrorist being opportunistic this time around.\n\nThroughout history, many groups, nations, civilizations, kingdoms, etc have fallen to their enemies by way of naivete and political/cultural over-correction.\n\n The words \"nice\" and \"niave\" share a root because \"nice\" was an Old World backhanded compliment that meant you were pleasant but gullible. \n\nWe just need to find a way to be compassionate and forward thinking while* we as western nations keep ahold of our national cultural identities and maintain some healthy level of skepticism towards religious groups of all kinds (including that of conservative Christianity and Judaism, as well as the many cults, both home and abroad). \n\nReligion only wants power, and always leans towards a Theocracy when it gets that power.

They're different. I read the first expanse book after watching the show, and it was kind of strange how exact the first season was to the first book. I loved it though and kept reading. The show got me into the book, and now I am really enjoying it. It's great to see visuals of things that weren't perfectly articulated in the books, or things I missed shown rather than something I have to reread. I'm also excited to watch Dune for this reason, since I just finished the book and I'm pumped for the movie. \n\nPeople who say \"book is better\" are usually snobby in my opinion.

Not only did [Thomas Jane](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Jane) do an amazing job with the part, what made the first 2 seasons so great was the angle of it being a sci-fi detective story. The character of Joe Miller was like the sci-fi equivalent of [Philip Marlowe](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_Marlowe) and gave the series a grittiness and an anchor for the audience to connect with while all kinds of sci-fi craziness it going on all around.

An incredibly interesting story about the singularity that features of ton of activities in space.\n\nA Fire upon the Deep. Its really difficult to describe this book, but its very high concept sci fi. Features, hands down, one of the most interesting aliens I've ever seen depicted.

Aliens are extraneous to me in a grounded universe of human expansion into space; while the alien tech is interesting and gives some legs to the narrative, I wouldn't miss it at all if it was absent. \n\nI feel like a dystopian Roddenberry story where humans explore the galaxy with all the baggage from our solar system is interesting, but IMO humanity as it is depicted in The Expanse is utterly incapable of such a unified mission. It's the future equivalent of the age of Viking exploration; enough drive and resources to throw ships into the void but not enough to permanently colonize. \n\nAlso Belters are less of an oppressed people and more of a disorganized people. Earthers as a people are far more disenfranchised, with almost no means to enjoy the wealth of the system without being born into it. Dusters are in a far better position of power, but still are pouring resources into an impossible dream, significantly diminishing their force projection. Belters live in a libertarian hellscape, where the fractured political/tribal system of their people means that they are easily exploited by any larger group. But this lack of power is less of a class issue (though echoes of class themes are throughout the show) and more of a political capital issue. Inaros has demonstrated that Earth and Mars are just as easily exploited when there is a unified front from the Belt (if not more so due to the inherent reliance on the centralization of power on planets). Every group in the show is suffering in their own way and dealing with their own challenges. While at first glance it seems like a simple proles vs. bourgeoisie conflict but it goes much deeper than that, where the baggage of the past blends with the challenges of the future. The Belt seems worse off because the show is mostly set in space, but we see in many cases how the lower class throughout are all disenfranchised in their own way.", "Damn, that's what I was afraid you were going to say.", "So disappointed in this storyline.

We're short sighted and greedy and tribal and that doesn't just stop, even when we learn that there are long dead interstellar aliens who tried to destroy earth 2 billion years ago.", "This is very much the story of the books, especially at this stage.\n\nEven the first stories are fundamentally about politics. They're about the war between Mars and Earth, the repression and dehumanization of Belters, the greed of the inner planets at the expense of the outer planets. Those plot points set the stage for what's happening at this point in the story. \n\nUltimately the books are more about the politics and human aspects than they are about aliens.", "This series takes place in like the 25th Century.

The show is still following the books pretty well it's just that 5-6 aren't really that important in the grand scheme of things.

The whole Belter conflict is mostly a setup to explain the political situation for the last three books.", "It would have been a huge divergence from the books not to kill Miller off. I also don't think his story would be well serviced by being extended longer. Making that arch longer just means we see him either get much, much worse, or improve to a point where his death takes on a completely different meaning. \n\nThe arch we do get is great: A burned out joke of a cop becomes obsessed with the subject of his final case, his obsession slowly causes him to lose every little thing he had and he doesn't even find her alive. He sacrifices his life to descend into hell just for the chance to see her, to talk to her and conform her in death, and he gets to go out in a blaze of glory, satisfied, as he saves humanity from extinction. There is no way that could be a satisfying 6 season arch. It was perfect as is.", "Prime, not Netflix", "Wait so the last season is just more Belter/Earther struggles?

But that's not the case, we're a bunch of monkeys in spaceships throwing rocks at each other.", "Unfortunately, the show fell off a massive cliff due to introducing the rings, superior life forms, and a potential creation story only to then focus on turmoil between belters and Earth. Such a shame. First couple seasons were great!", "The war is only going on because the rings opened up. The rings meant that Mars was dead because terraforming a dead planet is pointless when 1300 earth like planets exist, which meant that their massive navy was sold off. The rings meant that eventually the belters who couldn't settle on planets due to their physiology would eventually lose their economic niche and die out, because it's not worth mining resources in a vacuum when there are 1300 worlds rich with everything you can find in the belt. \n\nThe point of the Rings is that even when our universe gets 1000 times larger and expands across the stars we still have the eternal issue of being human. That no matter how much things change, they always stay the same. That even though our fundamental understanding of the universe has shifted we're still only human, with all the biases, greedy and tribalism that comes with that.", "> I thought it'd only get better with Amazon\n\nThey definitely got a big juiced up budget, so that was cool, but I suspect that Amazon was a bit \"unlucky\" in that the books being adapted for s4/s5 (mostly books 4 and 5, I assume?) are a bit different in style to what was used for s1-3 on SyFy. i.e. s4 is very planet-based and claustrophobic, a bit beige and dull compared to what came before, and s5 is deliberately the opposite of the usual lead hero story (the cast are all split up and get their own stories, rather than Holden being the centre).\n\nI liked aspects of both the new Amazon seasons, but I've been missing the sci-fi craziness a bit.

Then another major change once the gates open. We first get introduced to the far future and its status quo. The protomolecule is a chaos agent that reshuffles the chessboard (for one thing, the dream of Mars dies, greatly diminishing its power). Of course there are going to be new players seizing an opportunity for power. The story is about people navigating the course of that chaos and seeing where it leads. To me, that's the compelling part of the story.", "No real source other than bits and pieces on /r/TheExpanse, so don't quote me on this :)", "That’s not weird at all.

Why bother saving the whole world when you can save yourself far easier? Of course politics would affect the situation, it affects everything. Nothing, not even real life, devolves to \"Republicans vs Democrats,\" but yes, everything in life comes down to conflicting motives and desires. You can see dozens of real life examples. You're currently living in the middle of one! A global pandemic that has killed millions had an incredibly simple and straightforward path for being dealt with yet it has been eclipsed by petty political squabbles. Climate change will end us in a couple of centuries and no one is taking direct, dramatic action. \n\nI'm not simping for the show, I agree it's not the best show ever, but your grievances towards the show are because you have a smooth brain and not because of any legitimate complaints. Yeah, it might be cool for the show to turn into Star Wars and have some crazy epic alien battles or whatever but that's just not what the show is about. It's about the Rocinante and its' crew. In real life, a single patrol ship full of a dozen people doesn't have that grand of an effect on the universe. They certainly couldn't hold off a threat as big as the aliens. \n\nALSO, you're trying to shit on the show's writing but you haven't even seen the season yet haha. Have you considered that, maybe, the trailer is downplaying the whole alien thing because they want it to hit harder? Or maybe the show is making the point you're making: while everyone was fucking around with the crazy terrorists, the aliens are coming to kill us and the show is a grim warning that humans need to stop being idiots. \n\nThe humans in the show are just like us.

Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, \"Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?\" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, \"Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride.\" And we … kill those people. \"Shut him up! I've got a lot invested in this ride, shut him up! Look at my furrows of worry, look at my big bank account, and my family. This has to be real.\" It's just a ride. But we always kill the good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok … But it doesn't matter, because it's just a ride. And we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. Just a simple choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.”", "Alex Jones you to be so much more slim.", "Or if you rather, [Tool](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vc9Mz2tfHM) eulogized him in song.", "Yes! \n\nThank you for sharing!" ]	9	videos	Bill Hicks Stand Up Comedy - Nothin' Goes Right (1988)

But i doubt kids scrutinize the teaser trailers as intensely as adults.", "Just rewatched both Toby's and Andrew's series.\n\nAndrew's Spider-Man is the best, imo. And I actually really like his Peter, though I do concede it's a different Peter. He's more a cool loner, as opposed to Andrew's complete nerd. Tom Holland's Peter is kind of a cool, but not popular kid too though, to be fair. But even if it's less comic accurate, as someone who works with high school students daily, Andrew feels way more like a real human than Toby's. I appreciated that realism.\n\nPlus, showing Toby's Peter being smart, was him just saying the word \"quantum\" and being a keener in class. Seeing Andrew's Peter solve equations, and actually engineer and craft his technology was nice. I want to see he's smart, not just be told he's supposedly smart.\n\nAlso, the villain writing in Amazing Spider-Man was... subpar (and villain designs, too, but that's a whole other issue, and in part because they are based on Ultimate counterparts, imo, but, again, another issue) but the Peter's personal life plots are actually written surprisingly well. They carry a lot of depth and don't pull punches.\n\nAndrew's writing didn't hold up as well as I hoped. \nThey are very cheesey and corny and campy, but also the pacing and plot is kind of, \"and now the villain attacks\". There's less depth, imo, and the motives are pretty superficial or lacking. In fact, rewatching, them, I think I actually enjoyed Spider-Man 3 the best, because despite that atrocious club scene where Peter is dancing on the piano... the villains are much more intricately laid out and, and the stories interweave better than I remembered. Added more layers and motivations.", "Ok so the majority of people swept up by the Rami films, read the Stan Lee, Ditko books when they first came out?", "Emo Toby - oof. I don't even mind the finger guns in the street. The whole idea is Peter thinks he's cool, but he has no idea what cool is and it's cringey. But that song and dance number in the bar... what the heck...\n\nTopher Grace Venom - he's a black symbiote, sure, but the movie and that character are so much better if you tell yourself it's not actually Venom, just simply a black symbiote.\n\nJames Franco Goblin - it was alright... His snowboarder dude/Matrix-style getup was a style of the times. Doesn't age amazing, but I can at least accept it\n\nDane DeHaan Goblin - if they only introduced Harry in the first movie, he wouldn't have felt so forced and rushed. We had no connection to him, and he just felt like a whiny, entitled brat who doesn't know how to interact with people (which I mean, he is, but there should be some redeeming qualities that make him Peter's bestfriend). His fall from grace and turning on Peter meant nothing because we didn't even know Peter knew who he was until 20minutes before. Majorly dropped the ball on that one, and I think was largely studio interference trying to set up Sinister Six for the future, and needing a springboard. But seriously, have Harry come home in the first movie because Norman was dying, just like it is in the second movie, but instead let Harry and Peter be friends, then have the faceturn in the second. Would be so much more effective.\n\nBlue Electro - Sony - trying to distance themselves from Maguire's films - went with Ultimate designs... bleh. What a shame. Blue electro, and the over the top caricature of Max Dillon were a major swing a miss. But same reason they went with the mechsuit Rhino, and the biological-deformation goblin.\n\nRhino - It was meant to just be a tease at the time. He was supposed to be in the next movie/the Sinister Six movie.

I believe the biggest concentration of such fans, is among those who saw the films around the time they came out.\n\nThe first film did $820 million at the box office. DVD and VHS sales reached $428 million by 2004. By 2006 the grand total for box office and home video sales was 1.5 billion.\n\nYou show me anything reaching those numbers after 2006 and I'll eat my words.\n\nWe can do a similar break down for every film if you'd like. But I promise its all the same. More people saw these films when they first came out. Which makes it very likely that there are more fans among them than there are kids who dusted off their parent's copy and fell in love with it.\n\nI mean I could be wrong. Maybe 95% of the people who saw those movies when they came out hated them and every single 12 year old who watched them last year for the first time, thought they were the best movies ever.\n\nI doubt it though, and I doubt they went this direction with the plot in order to include them... to appeal to tweens and younger.

It was a movie made for children. \n\nSo many films found a fan base after theatrical releases. Princes bride comes to mind. \n\nYou seem hell bent on sticking to your guns here. The new spider-man movies are targeted to the 20 years and up crowd, which blows my mind anyone could reach that conclusion.\n\n I freely admit that i dont have numbers or sources to site otherwise other than its a character that plays off children's imagination.
