That’s intentional. Jean-Honoré Fragonard had a goofy style.

It’s not exactly hedonism, but is kind of adjacent.
The Swing by Jean-Honoré Fragonard
- Does it block Cookie’s banners? Are these the cookie consent things? It doesn’t block them, I recommend consent-o-matic extension.
- Is it necessary for the VPN to be constantly activated to benefit from the block? Yes
- Is it better than uBlock-Origin? It’s different. You can use both at the same time. I do and it works great.
- When is the page loading speed consistent? Not sure what you mean by this, but I haven’t noticed any speed reductions using it on Wi-Fi or cellular. I haven’t done any speed test comparisons, though.
- On iPhone, does the battery take a hit? It has to constantly run, so yes. But it may reduce the data downloaded, which will save some battery life. I use it on Android and I think it drains the battery a little faster, so I only use it when I’m on public Wi-Fi.

This is propaganda
- It feels great to own everything
- This is what winning IRL looks like
- A single person can and should own everything and it’s too bad if you don’t
- Owning property is a zero sum game
- Only one person can win when it comes to property ownership
- Owning property is the only way to power

Monopoly is literally capitalist propaganda. Parker Brothers basically stole the game from its creator and then offered $500 for the rights. They modified the game to be more focused on owning everything.
Cautionary Tales has a great episode about Lizzie J. Magie and how she originally created the Landlord’s Game.
Lucky! I wish some would give me a free knife.
Now I need an explainer for the structure of Vsr-like homing endonucleases.
