Dancers at the bar asking after the drama w/r/t a regular getting kicked out, apparently he offered one a half-full jar of his cum, “I thought you might want this”

before closing with November Rain they actually did that “silent lucidity” song, the rest of it isn’t nearly that beta as that one line huh

I mean it’s badass for prog

Once every few months I read something mentioning that Mikhail Gorbachev did a commercial for Pizza Hut, and every single time I briefly realize that the world is fundamentally absurd and grotesque, and then immediately forget about it for the next few months.

@nihilsupernum

can’t tell if satire of capitalism or triumph of capitalism

It’s both, Capitalism satirizes itself, even in triumph. As indefinite growth marches on perpetually, all lines will eventually be crossed, what is indecent will be unearthed, what is ridiculous will become commonplace. We can already see how the limits of the Earth, biosystems, the natural limitations of the human body are dispensed with. So too are the limits of decency and seriousness.

You could probably fully automate a McDonald’s and have it just be, like, a big vending machine if they didn’t care about ~friendly atmosphere~. Maybe there are problems with this I am not seeing? 

Best I can think of is a) Most normies are extroverts, to the point that a robot McD’s would feel alienating to them, beyond just removing the ~friendly atmosphere~. and b) maybe the technology for some parts of the work is less mature than for others, and we’re waiting on a missing step?

Also, without human staff a place like that would be vandalism-bait; that doesn’t really explain why the big vending machine plus one or two security guys isn’t a thing though.

Reason A is what I meant when I said friendly atmosphere.

Food, Folks, and Fun.

These dudes would never admit to bowling.
