How do we post this as a sticky across most of the socio-political-economic subs.

Can anyone translate this into old people? I think he’s asking for dickpics and some sort of cumshot distance competition.

A trade partner of second last resort.

This is just the most immediate face of their food problem. 1 Billion people + rapidly depleting groundwater + rapidly depleting glacial water + climate change = famine. Everyone is vulnerable but few moreso than india.

Have you considered doing the right thing for once? Then as the real alpha move, stick with doing the right thing.

…twwwooo weeeeks…

You’re all wrong! Fools!

Everyone knows it’s a Kirk era tricorder.

You dropped an x. <–Take this and put it back where it belongs.

Nothing that corrupt was meant to last.

Not for a club. More like a scene in a group discussion in Schitts Creek or Arrested Development.

TL/DR - yes. Hell yes even.

What is art or what is good art?

One of my fav definitions of art is "that which was created with the primary intention of invoking an emotional response in the observing subject.

Some would say art which provokes positive or negative emotions is good art, even if it was intended to be only positive. The more powerful the emotional response the better the art. So the Brandenburg Concertos are potentially on the same level of art as say Tiny Tims Tiptoe Through the Tulips, or Rebecca Black’s Friday. As music they are all galaxies apart, but as art. Strong emotions all.

Other would say good art provokes strong intended emotions. Like a performance piece about domestic violence is supposed to make you feel strong anger and revulsion. To these same “intentionists” if you found the same piece triggers a dark humour reponse and you lol, it’s bad art because it didn’t demonstrate mastery of emotional provocation. Closer to home, it means Shitposts are art. We are all artists here. Some masters, some aspiring. I could go on, but why.

I’m just gonna go home and rethink my life.

Apparently my comedy isn’t ready for the road, let alone a lemmy shitpost.

Does deontology pay well?

At first I was gonna say, maybe morality isn’t subjective. Maybe its just our perception of morality that is, and that as an intelligence constrained by our meat, the subjectivity is just a naturally occuring conceptual filter construct that creates the illusion of subjectivity.

Then I realized, I should have just said “yeah”.
