although this is a good time to remind everyone that The New Deal, while better than nothing, was largely instituted as an appeasement measure to the masses to prevent revolution during the great depression

The four options

- live in a cruel capitalist world
- escape it, by death or by living in the woods
- reform it, liberal style
- bulldoze it and make a new (hopefully better) one

Hey friends, I wanna make a microfiction writing account, and instances that would fit that well?
@Alamantus thinking about this, I distinctly remember a time a white missionary woman (a mom of one of the students) came and talked to us all about how since Japan is primarily Shinto and Buddhist, that meant that there was demon worship everywhere. Because well, if it ain't Jesus it's demons, so she p much just condemned a whole culture cuz they have different ceremonies and festivals. Sadly students, including myself, didn't know any better. Know better now. Damn our school was fucked.
Sometimes machine learning is good
Hello Google How Do I Show My Friends I Havenโ€™t Talked To In A Long Time That I Love Them Without Being Creepy
max weber cites this really long passage from ben franklin's autobiography where he goes into great detail about how you should always be investing your money. essentially your one uninvested dollar could have turned into two, and those two could have turned into four, etc, so it is wasteful to leave any dollar idle. franklin was famously secular but it is interesting to note that protestantism sees idleness as the ultimate vice. so effectively investment/speculation is the way you apply this ethical principle to your money. anyway once you notice this pattern and how it weaves through american thought you will never unsee it
@Alamantus fuck I forgot about that. By the gods that's fucking insane.
If I ever come out publicly, I am writing the post like it's a bug fix

What Earthlings considered 'technology' was crude, bordering on offensive.

They had barely grasped the concept of communication... so it was breath-taking to observe the day one of them made a record of a successful hunt.

It was on a rock in the open, it would barely last as long as the prideful hunter-artist would, but it was... encouraging.

I shared some complicated knots as a gift before I left.

I wonder where they'll go from there...
