So is the only thing in the nft.mp4 the rtf file with the date and that jpg?

Are furry artists good for anything?

Been over an hour since we heard from alco after he ran "lassoo cum anime" through the ol' goog.

i 'member.

There will always be fringes, but if you can provide a majority with a strong enough educational foundation so that they don't fall prey to misinformation in the first place or are better able to identify reliable sources, you can mitigate the effect of the fringes. Those physicians promoting hydrochloroquine as a treatment also received either significant pushback, or in some cases were arrested: https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:KwvTjtut7G8J:https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/942941+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=ca&client=firefox-b-e

Majority of Americans want universal health care: https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2020/09/29/increasing-share-of-americans-favor-a-single-government-program-to-provide-health-care-coverage/ You'd have a hard time finding any voter who doesn't want better education for their kids, but even non-parents support more federal funding for education. https://www.nea.org/advocating-for-change/new-from-nea/poll-majority-public-wants-greater-federal-support-education. https://www.governing.com/archive/gov-raising-funding-public-schools.html

That's not promoting an agenda, that's promoting a business model. If you are more left-leaning, you will get a shit ton of democracy now and jacobin style recommends in your feeds. If people had a better educational base that included critical thinking, the obvious lies and disinformation would be much harder to peddle by people writing them. I'm not saying the tech companies are blameless mind you, and I think the twitter approach by attaching disclaimers is a good start to more transparency. My point was more that the US federal government doesn't want address those root causes because they are a lot more difficult to address.

Also don't google "lassoo cum anime", that typo brings up some very uhhhhh educational results.

Fuck yes I remember that. YEGG!!!! The unit in question sold for $13.5M: https://shapeandcolour.wordpress.com/2008/05/16/murakamis-my-lonesome-cowboy-15-million/. (link very NSFW). I guess at least you actually get something for that?

Can’t remember the name (not weed right?) but she’s also the one who sold the YouTube video of her with falling pieces of clip art for like $5k or something?

they probably cleaned their rooms.

“Let’s slap a band-aid on the problem rather than make efforts to address the root causes like wealth inequality, systemic racism, lack of investment in education, lack of universal healthcare etc.” Seriously, are the algorithms these companies use to keep users engaged really “promoting” a particular agenda? All the data harvesting and so on yes, that shit needs to be regulated, but blaming what happened on the tech companies is like blaming your three-year old for burning down your house when you built your house out of gas-soaked rags and dry timber.

Took today and tomorrow off, took the missus to the spa. While I was reading outside the spa (they have some nice chairs with a good view), "rhubarb" came on their outdoor speakers. Lovely.

And I think that’s enough of that. Start a new topic about watmming at the airport, let’s leave out the silliness (by which of course I mean Holocaust denial).

If you're going to buy, pick up 2A and 6. 6 is actually balling out of control.

and knowing is half the battle.

Currently watching Age of Samurai: Battle for Japan. The history is accurate and some illuminating bits about the personalities, but the music for it is fucking terrible. So..almost quite good.

How does non-Han equal non-Chinese? Those are two different things. Notice that you yourself also wrote You’re claiming that Chinese don’t eat dog because the populations that do are non-Han (i.e. non-Chinese). My statement is that non-Han (who are Chinese) live in the border regions.

lol bruh.

It's not a racist statement in my objective and subjective reality, because it's a simple statement of fact that ascribes neither a negative nor positive value to it. Koreans also eat dog (the soup is better than the steaks I find), although just like in China, the practice is diminishing (largely because of the evil western imperialism imposing their moral values).

It happens throughout China - maybe not in Shanghai and Beijing (although you could probably find it in Beijing - I never spent enough time in the city), but places like Shenzen just recently banned the sale. It's nothing at all like saying all Chinese are Muslim. It's saying that some Chinese people do in fact, eat dog. Some Chinese are Muslim, some Chinese eat dog. Nowhere did I say that all Chinese eat dog, but it is a fact that Chinese people eat dog. Again, your insistence on using the term non-Han as if that excludes then from being Chinese is what is problematic here. Edit: I'm not sure why you brought up the Hui and the differentiation between them and the Uighurs, but thank you - you are indeed correct that the Muslim Hui are not oppressed. The question is not one of freedom of religion. It is rather about political control on Xinjiang (which is ironic because Xinjiang was never conquered by any of the Han dynasties, rather the Manchu during the Qing dynasty). China needs to maintain control of the border regions, where the population is largely non-Han. This includes Xianjing, Tibet, and Inner Mongolia (this is not a new issue). Mao said it best: "We say China is a country vast in territory, rich in resources and large in population; as a matter of fact, it is the Han nationality whose population is large and the minority nationalities whose territory is vast and whose resources are rich, or at least in all probability their resources under the soil are rich." (In the same document Mao also ironically said: "We must not follow the example of the Soviet Union in concentrating everything in the hands of the central authorities, shackling the local authorities and denying them the right to independent action." which contrasted with his actual policies). Now while Inner Mongolia has benefited quite nicely (strong development, big rise in average GDP) they are soon going to find out what protesting against cultural assimilation will bring. We already know how the CCP plans to control Xianjiang, and it's not pretty. It's all about political power though, and we see it manifest in other ways such as China's attempts to expand its maritime territory through the nine-dash line claim.

So...Chinese people eat dog meat. Your use of non-Han minorities as if they are exclusionary from China is part of the Han chauvinism that's entirely problematic with the Chinese propaganda about 5,000 years of Han Chinese culture.

Fried crickets are good, though they can be a little oily at times. Silkworm pupae on the other hand should never be eaten by anyone at anytime. Although not an insect, fried bullfrog legs are actually not bad at all. Tastes like chicken.
