Nothing that corrupt was meant to last.

They knew.

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”.

With apologies to Mitch Hedberg.

Like many claim satire is dead because it is indistinguishable from real news, this makes me think shitposting will suffer the same fate.

Now where can I buy this?

Nothing more American than killing Americans.

It might be because they didn’t let him grab them by the pussy. Kash probably did.

A favourite prank - True Story:

Guy from Québec goes to southern US for work. Thick accent and very catholic. Befriends locals, but finds the trope about ignorance to be … deserved.

At bar after work, locals try to explain Christianity to him. He plays dumb and trolls EXPERTLY.

Merican - So Jesus died for our sins and came back to life.

Qué: Like le zombie?

Merican: Well, no. Not like that. But he showed his friends the holes in his hands to prove it was him and he really died.

Qué: Oui! Like le zombie. Wounds on hands from 'ow he died and fleshrotting off face…

Merican: No no nothing like that.

Qué: But he died? (Yup) For real? (Yup) But got back up? (yes) With wounds. (Yes). So 'ow eez dis not like le zombie?

Merican: I’m just not explaining it well. (Story goes on) Gets to transubstantiation. Take this bread and eat of my flesh. Take this cup and drink of my blood … and you shall have everlasting life.

Qué: Mais oui! You See. Like le zombie! He eat your flesh. I see many movie like dis.

Merican: No! Sorry, I’m not explaining it well. Jesus doesn’t eat your flesh. He wants you to eat his, symbollically.

Qué: Ohhh! I see now. Everlasting life? (Yes) So zombie Jesus feed you his zombie flesh and blood, so you turn into zombie like him and be undead forever. Are all Americain in dis zombie cult?

Merican: 😬🥵 well, when you put it like that I guess it does sound pretty weird.

I hear what you’re saying, but have you considered state violence? Quoting legal requirements at this stage seems quaint.

Aware is too strong a term.

What about phase? We could amplify or destroy with the same frequency.

Think is too strong a term here.

Fucking Debra.

No, sorry, I got the spelling wrong. It slobluntu. My mistake. A portmanteau of slobbery blunt to you.

Too soon. :(
