It's a rough combination when people are simultaneously overreaching and uninformed. They want the best of everything, but they don't know what the best is, so their demands are simultaneously strident and random, like a set of vectors with large magnitudes and random directions.
@watermeloncaulk@JohnJSSoriano@JamesSheeren If I were a spiteful person, I'd take consolation from the fact that you're miserable with your own life. Instead, I feel sorry for you. I hope you are never dehumanized the way you dehumanize others.
@jeremykauffman 5% of the population could get 95% of what they want. Play both sides, make your exit threat credible, and coordinate. If libertarians really were your sperging caricature, they'd probably win more. Libertarians should take the zionist playbook, minus the occssional slaughter.
@LPVT802 You should disaffiliate from National if they don't disband and don't disaffiliate from LPNH. Since Ron Paulians are in the party for good, maybe you should disaffiliate anyway, and strongly consider disbanding yourself.
@CassandraRules Out of respect for the speakers, we ask that no one insist any attendees engage in debate. We must preserve a highly protected "safe space", as we would a hospital for displaced refugees, or a girls’ elementary school.
@littleapostate Perceived warmth and perceived competency tend to be at odds. Not entirely though. Self-deprecation leans on warmth at the cost of competency. If you can thread the needle, we call it charisma. If you must choose, choose warmth. But if you put in the effort, you can be both.
“The Narrows” - @SuperRare. This particular shot has never been taken before. Taken at almost 3 miles above NYC in a 🚁 with the doors open. The pilot had to be on Oxygen to legally and safely pilot the aircraft. This is the result of a highly planned and coordinated photo shoot.
@by_caballero@csuwildcat@divine_economy You can believe enforced charity is more effective, that's debatable. But it isn't the only way, and in my estimatation it isn't the best way.
@by_caballero@csuwildcat@divine_economy There is no enforcement, that’s true. But enforcement isn't the only way to make something happen. Markets don't "force" innovation, they foster it. Schools shouldn't try to "force" learning, they should foster it. It's more effective.
As a lover of visuals, this tool has been super helpful when talking with people launching identity products.
I find myself using it on most early-stage calls. We hope it's helpful to others!
