The point of this post isn’t that TV is bad and books are good, the kid is watching 1 guy 1 jar on the TV.

It’s a shock video called 1 guy 1jar.

He sits on it, it goes inside him, then shatters.
He then starts to pick the pieces of glass out of himself, while bleeding everywhere.

Hollow and glass, keep away from your ass.

Terrible book.

Maybe my wording could use some work; It didn’t mean that it would cause in-fighting, I meant that it reframes the homophobia as gay in-fighting.

A twenty-ish video that might explain things better, if you are up for it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vr_g_64oS9Q

The last three minutes are the summary.

Also, I am gay.

Making the claim that homophobes are all secretly gay downplays the harm they cause. It turns reframes it into “in-fighting” instead of a minority being oppressed/attacked.

Some politicians will be self-hating queer people who are weaponizing hate, but others will just be hateful straight people.

The TV is playing 1 man 1 jar.

I don’t recommend watching the video, someone else in the thread gave a very good description

Hasbro relies on MTG to make them profitable, so there’s been a lot of selling out.

Even if you ignore the Universes beyond, the price of packs is way too high now, and they’ve made some blatant cash grabs.

“30th anniversary” was a special set with a different back, making them basically the same as the old gold-boarded decks, not tournament legal. This results in them being considered proxies, but made by WoTC… For $1000 for 4 boosters.

It isn’t a joke. They didn’t even bring up real life people that are in cards, or SpongeBob, mylitttle pony, Fortnite, or furby.

Thanks for clarifying, It was a little vague. The subject of the post is the Vatican/Papacy and this isn’t a USA-specific instance (Lemmy.world was spun up by someone from the Netherlands) or a USA-specific community.

The answer is “they weren’t. The study had nothing to do with that.”

It’s about stress levels, and how rats who were in control of the vehicles were less stress than rats who were just passengers.

He’d use the N-word, and make “jokes” like paying people to make a sign that said “death to all Jews”.

I assume that he was trying to be edgy, but it was a little too far.

He did/said a bunch of racist shit in videos/streams.

In 2019 someone livestreamed themself committing a hate-crime/mass shooting, killing 51 Muslim people in New Zealand. The shooter began his livestream with “subscribe to Pewdiepie!”

That seemed to be a rude awakening for Pewdiepie, and I believe that he’s stopped with the racist shit.

The comic, for anyone unaware:

It’s very “My name is Prince Andrew and I cannot sweat”

RFK’s “brainworm” was just an excuse to pay less alimony to his ex-wife, because he claimed that it reduced the income he could make.

The only proof of the worm is RFK saying that it existed, but he claims that his brain fixed itself two years later, and he’s all better.
His ex-wife he died by way of suicide by then, so he no longer needed to claim that he had reduced capacity in order to pay her less.

If you read the book “Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and the Dark Side of the Dream” it outlines how he was cheating on his ex-wife, sexually assaulting the babysitter, and would often tell his ex-wife that she should kill herself.

It would be better if he did actually have a brainworm, but it’s more likely that he’s just the kind of monster that would become part of Trump’s circle.

Ah, that makes much more sense. Going back to double check things, I article I saw user the wording “he banned them at the inauguration”, which I understood as “during his inauguration, he signed a bylaw which banned raspberry pi devices”.

Thanks for the correction!
