Random talk thread: It just keeps happening

[skullstorm]

You'll be pleased to know my feet are reaching baby butt softness. Most of the skin has peeled off and new, soft skin has appeared. I hope it lasts.

My heels were so annoyingly dry that every time I put socks on or took them off it felt like my socks clinged to my heels like velcro, and pumice and foot cream didn't help. I actually read somewhere that using foot files etc will make the skin on your feet grow thicker and harder ( ) but exfoliating socks just takes the dead skin away in a gentle yet gross manner. And now I have feet so soft Atra would worship them

Yo that was the funniest thing I saw today juxtaposed by TBS getting on Borys for wanting to bone Jade whatever

Put img tags around the path like [img}C:\users\agrajag\pictures\jpeg.png[/img]

[agrajag]

imgur on mobile only gives you a link that takes you to the gallery, not a direct .jpeg link, which is why I was asking about share links. But riotous answered my question, I think.

I just use this for grabbing something and throwing it up for the bore on mobile: https://imgbb.com/

I was told today about a man who was taken to the hospital and nearly died after two other dudes had fisted him a bit too... thorougly

TVC must have been involved somehow.

Got my phone back, warranty covered everything, phew. Now I have a blank phone and I'll have to fiddle with the settings a bunch to make it less annoying 

I didn't install whatsapp on my loaner phone and now I'm thinking I should just not reinstall it on this one, I got a whole week of peace from the cancer that is group chats and friends who spam shitty youtube links etc. There's a reason I'm not on facebook and whatsapp has become as annoying to me in recent years, I really should just quit using it. Too bad if some people will bitch and moan if I do

[skullstorm]

I don't know which thread to put this in but I like spamming this one. Yesterday I decorated a mug with a porcelain marker to give to my dad on his birthday. I couldn't think of anything to draw on the mug for months (I was supposed to give it to him on Christmas originally ) but yesterday it just dawned on me that he likes motorcycles, he had some Tintin comic books when I was little and in his youth photos he has the same hairstyle as Tintin so, with some googling and improvising this is what I was able to do:




The marker was an absolute bitch to use since my hand started shaking when I was trying to get clean lines but I was able to clean up the lines with a toothpick. Milou was much easier since he doesn't really have straight lines lol. In hindsight maybe Milou should have a wrench or something in his mouth but the whole addition of the dog was an afterthought so I just drew something.

I think my dad will like it, I just hope the marker stays on well. I've never used them before.

I need to listen to Abbey Road on repeat today.

That, and this.



People who don't like The Beatles are mostly dumbasses ime. I think the only person I've seen who doesn't like the Beatles and is cool is maybe Steve Contra.

[Himu]

those things both make perfect sense. i especially laughed at the beatles bit.

judge the beatles based off ringo songs brehs

you also don't like anything uk so you're biased

And I've not seen a single "centrist" (which centrists?) wonder what the shooters motive was. It's just another example of memes about "centrists" (whoever they are, usually people who disagree with the radical lefties). It's a retardo tweet.

[Himu]

They definitely made basic songs. My problem is using it as a pretext that there was no reason people liked them. No one likes The Beatles for The Walrus.

You? You going to UK? How long can you last? Have you seen a EPL game yet? You gonna chow down that English curry?

And nah, I think they apply a blanket approach. "Liberals" and "centrists" have been calling the person they consider a fascist a dictator for three whole years! People have been offering mass condolences to Muslims.

[Himu]

i'm sorry breh.

[Himu]

Also, ime people who deny the uptick in racial tension toward minorities are usually conservatives. Not centrists/moderates. I think the far left use centrists as boogeymen. "Centrist" doesn't even mean anything, because centrists have no core tenants. Obama is a centrist, as is Hillary, yet both recognize the uptick in hateful rhetoric. It's just far left college students playing dumb games on twitter and facebook who label anything they disagree with centrism.

[Himu]

i'm sorry man, a eurotrip sound good too. what are the vegan options in europe?

[Himu]

I'm shocked berlin is tops on this. germans love that sausage meat. I'd love to try vegan german sausage

I'm choosing to interpret it as a sea change that represents a growing lack faith in our current system from both sides of the spectrum.

Don't get me wrong. I lack faith in both and want a third option.

Stereotypes

We love that sausage meat though

[Himu]

[BisMarckie]

Seriously though every grocery store here sells vegan products even in rural areas. Every small town has at least one healthfood store (ger. Reformhaus) where you can buy all the tofu, tempeh and quinoa that you want.

currywurst. bah gawd. I never even thought of mixing kraut with curry.

you'll dine in heaven dude.

Or, since it's Germany, Valhalla.

Currywurst is just a bratwurst(sausage) with a ketchup based sauce. It‘s a post war struggle meal. No kraut involved.

[Himu]

Oops, I meant bratwurst. Doh. Ketchup? Where's that curry?

[BisMarckie]

Oops, I meant bratwurst. Doh. Ketchup? Where's that curry?

They just sprinkle some curry powder on top. As I said, it‘s a struggle meal. That said, the sauce can be good depending on how it‘s prepared and the spices being used.

[Himu]

and here i was thinking this

[BisMarckie]

Esch, you absolutely need some cash for your stay in Germany. A lot of restaurants don‘t accept any credit cards. Some would say for tax purposes.

Edit: Uber doesn‘t operate in Germany, so you have to call the local cab service. And most cabs only accept cash as well.

[Himu]

Dolly Parton, The Beatles, and George Benson on the list today.

[agrajag]

my dream is to one day to go to Wacken Open Air and to go to a rustic little tavern in Germany or England, preferably where they play metal.

Esch, if you don't mind a slightly pricey dinner for two when you're in London, I strongly recommend Vanilla Black.

It’s particularly useful to look back to the origins of the industrial revolution, in the mid-19th century, when the country was undergoing enormous social changes as the population was being driven into the industrial system, which working people bitterly condemned, because it deprived them of their basic rights as free men and women – not the least women, the so-called factory girls, who were leaving the farms to the mills.

It is worth reading the contributions in the press of the time by factory girls, artisans from Boston, and others. It’s also important to note that working-class culture of the time was alive and flourishing. There’s a great book about the topic by Jonathan Rose, called The Intellectual Life of the British Working Class. It’s a monumental study of the reading habits of the working class of the day. He contrasts “the passionate pursuit of knowledge by proletarian autodidacts” with the “pervasive philistinism of the British aristocracy.”

Pretty much the same was true in the new working-class towns here, like eastern Massachusetts, where an Irish blacksmith might hire a young boy to read the classics to him while he was working. On the farms, the factory girls were reading the best contemporary literature of the day, what we study as classics. They condemned the industrial system for depriving them of their freedom and culture.

This went on for a long time. I am old enough to remember the atmosphere of the 1930s. A large part of my family came from the unemployed working-class. Many had barely gone to school. But they participated in the high culture of the day. They would discuss the latest Shakespeare plays, concerts of the Budapest String Quartet, different varieties of psychoanalysis and every conceivable political movement. There was also a very lively workers’ education system with which leading scientists and mathematicians were directly involved. A lot of this has been lost under the relentless assault of the Masters, but it can be recovered and it is not lost forever.

The labor press of the early industrial revolution took strong positions on many issues that should have a resonance today. They took for granted that, as they put it, those who work in the mills should own them. They condemned wage labor, which to them was akin to slavery, the only difference being that it was supposedly temporary.

This was such a popular view that it was even part of the program of the Republican Party. It was also a main theme of the huge organized labor movement that was taking shape, the Knights of Labor, which began to establish links with the most important popular democratic party in the country’s history, the Farmers Alliance, later called the Populist movement, which originated with radical farmers in Texas and then spread through much of the country, forming collective enterprises, banks and marketing cooperatives and much more, movements that could have driven the country toward more authentic democracy if they had not been destroyed, largely by violence – though, interestingly, similar developments are underway today in the old Rust Belt and elsewhere, very important for the future, I think.

The prime target of condemnation in the labor press was what they called “The New Spirit of the Age: Gain Wealth, Forgetting All But Self.” No efforts have been spared since then to drive this spirit into people’s heads. People must come to believe that suffering and deprivation result from the failure of individuals, not the reigning socioeconomic system. There are huge industries devoted to this task. About one-sixth of the entire US economy is devoted to what’s called “marketing,” which is mostly propaganda. Advertising is described by analysts and the business literature as a process of fabricating wants – a campaign to drive people to the superficial things in life, like fashionable consumption, so that they will remain passive and obedient.
