Yeah, it’s something like that for me too.

Glad someone’s dreams actually have meaning. Mine make no sense and I forget most of them by the time I wake up. The best I can hope for is getting a few seconds of lucid dreaming where I can can fly around for a bit until the dream ends (whenever the lucid thing happens, the dream seems to fall apart and I have trouble keeping myself from waking up).

Well yeah, but they’re also a problem on their own, in the same way metastasized cancer is a problem compared to early stages cancer. If that makes sense.

The effect Cenk had on the people at that conference backfired. Kirk played him like a fiddle and they only talked about common ground issues. To their audience it came off as “we’re so right that even this leftist agrees with us”.

They could be intentionally obtuse. Surely they’re intentionally provocative, the question is whether this is because of ignorance or malice. My guess is it’s something in between, where they’re smart enough to know what they’re doing but care more about the money. I mean they surely vetted the fascists they got on with Mehdi Hasan because most of those people are creators with content out there for all to see, so they knew exactly what views they were platforming and normalizing to a wide audience.

I don’t think they’re ideologically fascist, but I do think they’re evil, in the same way capitalists are evil: they always consciously choose their self-interest over accountability for the consequences of their actions (which they are well aware of). And if push comes to shove, they’d fight dirty (e.g. aligning with fascists and fascist narratives) to protect themselves from said accountability.

The sequel to “The Man from Earth” which was called “The Man from Earth: Holocene” (if memory serves). The first one was so good, probably my favorite movie ever. It was hard to imagine they would top it, and they really didn’t.

You can. They did an update to the S8 (and others, I assume) that let you remap it. I used some app before that, something from the Google Play Store but it’s been way too long to remember the name. Nowadays there isn’t a Bixby button anymore for us to remap. They tried to take over the power button with AI now, but thankfully you can remap this back to power as well.
