It’s definitely not as comedic as the trailers have shown, it’s a fairly serious series and deals with a lot of depressing stuff, overall I loved the first season, but knowing the fate of one of the major factions that I identified most with kinda bummed me out.

Or set a Solar standard for the entire system.

Good luck with the novel, writing is another great outlet, take care.

I channel that into anger, rather than hopelessness, but I absolutely get you, it’s hard being unable to stop things from happening that you see a thousand miles away, and being fix some of the easiest stuff to fix. Now with the political climate with one side of most governments leaning very fascist, and then what’s going on economically, everything is harder and more frustrating, much more expensive. But that’s why I choose anger over hopelessness, because fuck these assholes, I’m not going to let these bastards grind us down, and you shouldn’t either.

My advice would be to try to force yourself to live in the moment more, stay informed, but find other outlets for your life, even if it’s just trying some pot and hallucinogenics, and channel your hopelessness into something positive, something that helps, even if it’s just something that helps you, also music, listening to it, or playing it if you can, I can’t, but music is always very therapeutic. Books or audiobooks work pretty well too.

Good luck, I really hope you find a way to overcome your sense of hopelessness, I know it’s not easy, but life never is.

Watching the actual Daily Show interview would probably be more helpful than this article was:

https://youtu.be/oaDTiWaYfcM?si=yKBpKqFXKgYxvyDL

It was a really good interview, Lina Khan was essentially a guest that Apple TV had blacklisted from Jon’s now cancelled show, they break down some of the ways the Tech Robber Barons have been undermining regulations and laws, while making boatloads of money and manipulating the stock market. They then go into some of Jon’s issues with Apple, his former employer, and why they had Lina Khan blacklisted as a guest on Jon’s now cancelled show, and after hearing her speak I can see why, she’s smart, and knows the topic well, and has some good ideas on how to fix some of the issues we have with regulating and controlling not just tech, but all out of control businesses. Then they discuss AI, how corporate leadership is going to fuck workers over completely using AI, and how AI is currently just a bunch of bullshit being used as an excuse to take our jobs and pay us less.

Nah that movie was about how human men are biologically flawed and that our cock and balls should be internal in some kind of clam shell like thing.

The Cyber truck is like the Pontiac Aztec’s special ed electrically charged cousin.

It’s going to be like that Star Trek episode where they find Voyager and it’s evolved and achieved sentience.

Our schools are generally purposefully underfunded and hardly anyone any Conservative with any real power gives two shits, because indoctrination is more important than education to Conservatives.

There, now that’s a much more correct statement rather than that both-sides bullcrap.

Ventrilo? TeamSpeak?

Vizio also probably has the best budget soundbars.

It’s too bad that now that they’re a Walmart subsidiary I’m fully expecting a quality dropoff, I’m not sure if that will be true, just that seems to be how it goes after mergers and acquisitions.

But hey we tried giving a shit load of money to a billionaire space nazi instead!

After reading a bit deeper about this station and this antenna in particular, i have to wonder if this isn’t an attempt at insurance fraud, and why I say that is that this station has been trying to repair that radio tower over the years and have had an issue with the tower going dark repeatedly, maybe they figured they could make more money off the insurance claim, or enough to replace it, and through all of the fundraising and exposure it looks like that’s just what’s going to happen.

Gary Clarke Jr. Has some good protest songs, especially for a blues musician, including a remake of Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young’s Ohio.

Municipal Waste is great for some hardcore, there’s actually a bunch of hardcore bands that have some excellent protest songs.

Then you have Ice-T’s Body Count.

Lamb of God’s albums post-Randy’s time in a Czech prison have been full of social commentary, far more than the earlier albums.

I’ve seen people highlight Killer Mike’s Grammy wins, but his other group Run the Jewels is pretty much the biggest name in protest rap these days.

Then you have Kendrick Lamar, possibly the best rapper of his generation, absolutely one of the greatest story tellers of rap, period.

Overall there’s a lot of pop, metal, rock, rap and other genres who have some prominent names and many lesser known names who are putting out good angry music.

Then you have Ice Cube putting out Arrest the President then proceeding to talk about voting for that same president.🤦‍♂️

System’s whole catalogue really, they’re basically Rage Against the Machine, but with an Armenian twist and flair, love them, but can’t believe the drummer is a MAGAtard.

Don’t give Elon any ideas

I’ve always wanted to see Petra in person, definitely some beautiful and historical scenery there.

The King of Jordan has been a long standing US ally, and one of the most stable partners in the region.
