No not full stop. That's not an equivalent comparison at all and it really disturbs me that so many people agree with you. What an egregious oversimplification.

A crime is a crime. I'm not saying oppression gives a get out of jail free card. Hurting an innocent person is still wrong, but being afraid of an unknown person who is a member of a race that is predominantly cruel to you? Understandable. Calling out that race for bad behavior is also acceptable, wouldn't you agree? As a member of an oppressed race you exist in a world not too dissimilar to the movie "They Live."

How can you know who is and isn't your ally? It's safer to assume they aren't.

There is a lot of nuance to this very complicated subject.

Yeah, as a stupid cunt 'murican I agree. Lmao This is actually the first thing I thought of looking at this picture. "I'm not sure what to call this feeling but I feel it deep in my bones when looking at our news."

For the literalists out there, the $600 amount is actually irrelevant. The joke is that there would be an amount of money that won't do anything truly life changing for you.

The exhausting part is one of the benefits to me. I slept like shit for... My life... Until I was diagnosed at 30. No more uncomfortably restless legs, no more doing mental gymnastics trying to figure out a good way to fall asleep.

It's not that they are fun, it's that I can't have real fun without them. Best I can do is find a way to be comfortably distracted from the feeling of not accomplishing anything that I know won't be satisfied by accomplishing things.

Without the pills dopamine becomes the estranged aunt the family doesn't talk about but is severely missed.

Hadn't really thought of it that way before. I've considered the possibility of an exterior source before but not that it might have something to do with sleep.

These days I'm more leaning to consciousness being the result of some convergence of our neural architecture.

It's like asking the question of, "where's the user environment of a computer?"

Well, it's in the RAM... Except it's also streaming through the CPU, oh also it's on the monitor but that isn't what it actually looks like, however it actually originates from the SSD.

None of these individual components matter in a truly meaningful way without all of them. It is the same with the brain, take out any part of it and effectiveness is diminished or outright bricked.

Astlibra: Revision

I'd put a conservative minimum first playtime at 60 hours... For slower, completionist, players? 80-100 hours.

If that first playthrough is on the impossible setting?... I don't wanna think about it. Lmao

I had mine at 26 and wasn't even married. No kids. Had one interview where the doctor made sure I was properly informed, had the procedure done like the next week or something when the schedule had an opening.

In a very conservative state too. Not Missouri conservative... But definitely not California either. Lol This was nearly 10 years ago. No regrets.

We basically run on tiny combustion engines. Exothermic reactions.

We aren't a passive 98 degrees, we would be hotter if it wasn't cool enough outside. Higher heat would cause different cellular structures to become misshapen, leading to system breakdown. I'd be like trying to run a cpu cooling loop with boiling water.
