Bought a 70ct bag of chips today. I propose calling these cheaps. They even taste nice.

I was thinking at first why there was a blunt with blood held up but it's a stake. I get it now. haha

it does look like a blunt. That was probably intentional in the original Blackula poster.

I'm working on a Vampire Vixens from Venus one, but not sure that it works.

Back from AZ after getting up at 3am this morning to catch my flight. Bleary-eyed and jittery from too many pots of coffee. Great mix. Yeesh.

It's not that people have bad taste - they generally have no taste because they don't need to develop taste.

I dissent. Bad taste can be a form of art. It's the ultimate pohuyism (from похуй.) You know better. You once may have had taste. But you no longer care. It hurts. But you don't care about that either.

But you no longer care.

I am @pessimism perhaps but I think some people don't learn to care beyond a very narrow cone of things.

Hmm. I realized that I really wanna stay naive and believe that involuntary not caring is a function of either ignorance or sociopathy. Where the former can be cured by being exposed to a different world than the safe one (or the one that gaslit you) and the latter currently does not have a cure, but I want to also stay confident that humanity will find a way to fix this eventually.

It's better to be naive. I tend to believe that folks

  1. want to conserve energy
  2. care consumes a lot of energy

Therefore people will, on average, care to the extent caring helps them get other needs met. Absent status and power being tightly coupled to caring, I don't expect to see much of it.

Yes. But I don't think that is mutually exclusive with my naïveté. What I think that your belief means to me is that there is just a continuous loss of potential. Which leaves a lot to dream about. A lot of small changes, even suggestions, that may over time accumulate into something that is more beautiful than it was before.

I sometimes feel one-step-fwd-two-back weighing. But then I think about those I was able to inspire, or even nudge along in the slightest of ways. Just through a challenge that the status quo isn't static, or planting a little seed of what could be possible.

It doesn't always work. And I hate failure. But I guess that's also what keeps me on my toes. And not be decadent and lazy. Even all the while, I'm bleeding potential too. Always have been. But we try.

Cool. I'd love to study slang from all the world's languages. It'd probably teach one a lot about the frontier of communication culture.

I like it! Still prefer the original logo and I'd change the bottom text to Pay to Post, Zap to Like

reply

Zap to like is good. I've been using the different font for the logo because it fits better with the movie poster aesthetic, but I see your point.

“You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains.”
