What registrar do you use? Last time I checked .io domains where like 4x the price of a .org

Well that just makes the title even more useless.

There is one called “The Scout Mindset” by Julia Galef. It’s an amazing resource when it comes to teaching critical thinking, because it gradually introduces the reader to the virtue of being able to change your mind/opinion based on new information. I think that’s a fundamental skill everyone needs in order to use critical thinking in a meaningful way.

Leftists who think, if I don’t subscribe to their narrow, personal definition of leftism, I must be an epistemically evil conservative maniac with no middle ground whatsoever.

My take: If you are at a low point in life, have a mental disorder or are depressed, your chances of getting addicted over time is greatly increased and you probably shouldn’t consume without medical supervision (even then, THC-less weed might be better for you). It’s really hard to get out of the habit once smoking weed slowly becomes the only thing that can give you joy/relaxation, and your mental situation worsens long-term.

In most other cases your risks are very small and you definitely should try it sometime. Every person reacts a little differently, hence the many opinions out there. I say just try it, see how it makes you feel and if you decide to consume regularly, try to be mindful of any negative habitual/bodily changes that long-term use may cause.

There it is, calling me a conservative without any proof. Good job grouping me with all the other “villains”. Nevermind that I’m a life-long leftie who understands nuance.

Aight, it’s getting late here. Good luck with that two party system of yours. Seems to work out great for you! Go extremism!

How old are you people???

The concept of good faith goes both ways.

I’m sorry but hardly anything you said about conservatives in this thread was in good faith. Otherwise, kindly point me to any moderate conservative casually calling themself a villain.

And your solution is to shame and dehumanize the entire conservative community into submission/irrelevance? Labelling everyone on your right a villain, nazi, fascist or whatever solves absolutely nothing and kills any attempt at honest discourse.

Sure, ALL conservatives are grotesque villains who love killing vulnerable people… Some people should hear themselves speak, smh. Username checks out I guess.

I wish you named it “lewwy.world” just for the symmetry lol.

Added to my audible, I’ll make sure to checknit out. Thanks for the recommendation!

Thank you for sharing this, i really appreciate it.

Thank you ❤️‍🩹

Good to know it’s being looked at. I understand now that it’s a pretty big ask. I appreciate the feedback, thanks!

This may be true, but I think the main reason for less “obvious” baddies in modern movies is simply that they kind of went out of fashion from a culture standpoint. The ways how stories are told and how world is portrayed/perceived in art and media is heavily dependent on the people who live in it. Post-modernism is en vogue because we’ve shifted our world view from simple good vs. bad towards recognizing that the world we live in is much more nuanced/complex. “Sometimes the villain is in your head” or “nothing really matters, everything sucks one way or another” are world views that reflect our modern western culture a lot more since we are so much more connected to the world through the internet.

That said, post/meta-modernism is just one side of this. I’m sure there are plenty of commercial reasons to make toothless, non-offending movies as well. Also, movies like Top Gun: Maverick prove that the classic approach to storytelling (good guys vs bad guys) can still work and make a shitton of cash (although they didn’t go all in on who the enemy actually is).

I’m totally fine not having the feature if it proofs unfeasable. Definitely would be amazing though as I now often find myself avoiding youtube posts entirely. But maybe that’s just me and I’m okay with it either way.

Facts. I just disagree with the admins’ approach to this particular issue.
