Time for her to make another 4 hour video about how she was 1984'd into deleting a tweet.

She's actively regressing into a chud.

Being able to admit a mistake is huge, being able to genuinely apologize without some cop-out disclaimer is even better.

In other words - PT is Contrapoints, but it's good instead of whiny liberal asslicking.

I also still buy blurays.

A Bewitching Revolution.

You play as a witch who explores a city, helping homeless people get housed, planting fruit trees, clearing anti-bird architecture, starting union drives and prison riots...

The game is free and you can finish it in an hour.

A Bewitching Revolution is a first-person adventure game about a communist witch living in a cyberpunk city. Use magic to help the city's residents build collective forms of power and resistance!

Inspired by the work of Silvia Federici, A Bewitching Revolution tells an optimistic story about people transforming their gloomy capitalist present into a bright revolutionary future. It is designed to be played in a single sitting, roughly one hour long.

The speed of advancement from the industrial revolution to present.

This one makes Fermi's Paradox far more confusing and terrifying to me. The time it took to go from agriculture to the steam engine is nothing compared to the age of the universe, absolutely nothing, and from the steam engine to modern technology is fuck ton nothing.

An intelligent species could go from stone age technology to nuclear weapons in the blink of an eye.

And that's just life as we understand it. We have no idea if we're the equivalent of Flatland in a higher spatial dimension or something. There could be stars with entire civilizations of plasma-based intelligent life churning inside of them. There could be intelligent civilizations lurking in each and every single subatomic particle.

It's possible no matter how far out or far in we look, we just keep finding more universe, more space for something to inhabit, forever...

As they said on chapo-boys , if we look everywhere and we're the only intelligent species anywhere in this universe ... well that would be weirder than if life is hiding all over the universe.

After reading Flatland and playing The Forgotten City, I feel like any number of human religions could end up being "true" to some degree. But it would involve aliens, or interdimensional interlopers or something.

The air fryer is pretty cool I guess.

I actually just adopted knocking on wood. Couldn't tell ya why.

I feel like I've got most of these, but I also feel like everybody my age has got most of these...

On the other hand, I'm about to become a full time student on top of a full time workload and this is freaking me out.
