He specifically did his shows without ANY writing whatsoever… he could have written his own show but he didn’t write anything down. He didn’t get scab writers… he literally went out on set, and bullshitted with his co host and spun a bottle cap and in essence showed how trash shows are without writers… he did his show to prove a point… and he accomplished that…

But only because there is an actual limited and finite number of parking spots in any given area… unfortunately the less specialized a position is the greater number of people there are to take it… and with 8+ billion people on the earth odds are good you can be relatively easily replaced even at higher skill level jobs…

And FTR I am not justifying the poor wages of the working class (i.e. almost everyone who isn’t a boomer or a “rich” person)… but this comparison is a little foolish and fails at making the point the OP wanted to make… we’re stuck in Capitalism. Supply and demand. There can be no more parking spaces in certain places but we’re constantly making new people…

Dirty Heads is the first one that comes to mind… very similar to Sublime.

Oh man…. I JUST finished that book like a month ago. Absolutely loved it. Very well written. Pacing was solid. Didn’t know I was interested in Jewish folklore but this book was fascinating. Gave me “American Gods” vibes but more concise…

Just saw it today with my daughter… great great movie. Definitely deserves the hype.

I’m glad that an inability to understand nuance and have a helpful discussion wasn’t just a Reddit thing but apparently exists here as well! Reminds me why I almost exclusively lurked and avoided any posts that weren’t just talking about stuff people in the sub enjoyed… at least I’m finding out early that I need to just shut up and avoid trying to have discussions.

In response to your post, which will probably be the last engagement I have in this thread…

I put “radical” in quotes as compared to what the current status quo is (which I am not supporting FTR). We are in late stage capitalism… we are being controlled by the rich. Our government is corrupt and garbage… and to go from this to what Bernie wants is absolutely radical. Is it bad? Not generally IMHO. But is it a massive departure from where we’re at now? Yes.

As to your statement that his policies are supported by “the vast majority of Americans on both sides of the aisle”… where do you pull this data from? Because if we only had “some” shitty voters I find it hard to believe we’d be where we’re at now… but maybe I’m wrong… that just seems like one of these “sounds good, but is ultimately based on nothing real” internet takes that people like to throw around…

Welcome to the club! I’d love to hear which one is your favorite (cough IX cough) in a few years once you’ve played more!

Ugh… yes. I concur wholeheartedly…

I mean damn… that is some serious commitment. Lol

Haha! Yes, good call!

Nope… because I just tried it as a white male and got back a pure Asian man using the same prompts… and I’ll be damned if I’m not jealous/sad because the man it spit back out was way better looking than me…
