Asmongold drops a brutal take on who is actually causing all of society's problems
"Our schools are created to cater to and make the bottom 10% of the population succeed. This person shouldn't even know what electricity is. They should have a rake or a plow or a shovel and just be digging holes all day."
"The top 10% of Americans are very intelligent people. The problem is you're not being oppressed by the top 2% of society. You're being oppressed by the bottom 2%."
"The bottom 2% of society have caused all of the manifest problems in your lives. That's it."
In 2013, Domino’s Japan released a Hatsune Miku pizza-ordering app.
The commercial featured Domino’s Japan CEO Scott Oelkers awkwardly explaining the app in English.
The ad became a meme because it felt like a corporate fever dream.
SOMEONE BUILT WORDLE BUT FOR MINI GOLF AND IT IS QUIETLY BECOMING MY FAVORITE MORNING RITUAL
it's called https://t.co/uNM5Of4MOd.
you open the tab and there is one mini golf hole. that's the whole game. one new hole every midnight pacific. same hole for everyone in the world. your first finish counts.
you click the ball, drag back like a slingshot, let go. the further you pull, the harder you hit.
today's hole is called "Up and around." it's an S-shaped tropical island floating in dark teal water, with cross-barriers and one little wooden ramp that i ricocheted off three times in a row. par 6.
at the top of the screen, a live ticker scrolls past in real time:
> someone holed 6/6 · par
> someone holed 5/6 · birdie
> someone holed 11/6 · +5
real strangers are putting on the same hole as you. you can see the ghost rings of where their balls travelled, in cyan and purple and pink.
when you finish, you get a wordle-style share card. emoji result. takes one tap to drop into a group chat.
PC Gamer just wrote a whole love letter to it. the writer admits they scored a 20 on a par 12. they were thrilled.

the about page says it in one sentence: "Same hole for everyone, new one at midnight Pacific, and your first finish is your score. That's the whole game."
we are 35 days into the project and the calendar archive lets you play every single previous hole.
i don't know why this is so satisfying. i just know i was supposed to be writing this post and i kept reopening the tab.
the internet is healing.

It's called Supreme Experiment. Would you play this?
One of my favourite things JP vtubers do is try to phonetically read English they don't quite understand. While I'm sure me attempting Japanese would sound just as silly, I find it very endearing.
