Reminds me of an aside from this blog article that has been living in my head for a few months — To Save the Arts we must Kill the Artist — that goes like:

I mean this is true of all fascisms. I hesitate to call it a natural human disease of the mind or anything like that, but it certainly is a tendency, especially when times are tough.

Rofl I’m stupid and this hit so hard for like 2.5 seconds

Love this. Actually would be so freakin neat to reproduce this irl!

Yeah, if I find my water glass from yesterday in the morning it’s like ooo extra flat water tastes kind of like dust.

You’ve got to suck really hard to leverage surface tension while fisting.

Pro move but it can be done

I don’t want to sound all Malthusian but that’s kind of fucked??
