I mean, Jaquim Phoenix's Joker did... what? Kill Jay Leno on air? Luigi is definitely in the top 3 Jokers, way above Leto and Phoenix.
Because the ruling class is terrified
I especially like how the only example photo (from a fucking tweet of course) shows the completely flat non-ass of some anime goth girl that looks like she's 14. We need to go back to making gamers ashamed of their hobby.
Is there an ARPG that doesn't have some former D1 or D2 staff member on it? I'm sure the old janitors from Blizz North had to end up somewhere too.
This was also my understanding and I begrudgingly agree with NDT that borders and states and tribalism are bad. I don't agree with complaining about lines. Damn dude, sucks to have to be a regular participant in society, maybe of bureaucrats got paid better or there were more people working the passport desk.
Or.... and i know this is fucking wild, he made up that story because in the US you get passports in the mail. Yeah, you have to maybe wait in a short line for some steps but overall you just send in your info and wait 6 weeks.
Eh, that's one view. In The Dawn of Everything, Graeber and Wengrow propose that the State arises from the intersection of three forms of social power. These are sovereignty (control of violence), bureaucracy (control of information), and politics (control through charisma and culture). Historicaly each of these has existed as the basis for societies alone and in combination without the concept of a state.
The State is a meme, a technology like religion or money, which provides a framework for the distribution and application of those 3 forms of power. It isn't the only possible framework for that, but it's outwardly destructive nature and self-propogation have ensured that the modern world is structured around a narrow set of configurations of the State.
In all seriousness, visit your local library and ask them about it. Most library systems work with local authors to promote their work and regularly hold meetups and workshops for writers. Many cities have local zines, publishers, and anthologies. By getting to know your local writing scene, you can find opportunities to do readings of your work, have works published in collections, and so on.
Still the 🐐!
I install rR on every computer and device that'll run it. Wonder what Cho is up to? clicks link in OP Wow! Apparently he's been cranking games the whole time, what a back catalog to dig through!
I've even seen a moderator on Lemmy describe "freedom of speech" as nothing more than a right wing wolf whistle and banning someone.
A minor point (but maybe English is a second language): what right wingers do is "dog whistle," as in a sound so high-pitched only dogs can hear it. A "wolf whistle" is, funny enough, a kind of non-verbal cat-call. That is, it's a sound expressing interest or approval, specifically its the hi-lo whistle like Phwooooot- WOOooooo.

Cops. No one knows why.
One theory is ACAB = 1312 = All Cops Are Bad, so shortened to 12 (why not 13? also the slang predates "acab" popularity.)
Another is the show Adam-12, about cops.
