I'm skeptical of the idea that the majority of people don't have that ability

I would guess there are certain things that make you do it more or less

Same I think there are people that don’t use it often but I can’t fathom not having one

like, for example, I read all the time as a kid. Maybe that develops it

these days I read less and notice myself doing it less

although take that theory with a big grain of salt

Last year I considered working out and trying out for the local police force up here in southern-Minneapolis, but I actually met the officers are they're about as neo-liberal as you can get.

welp, just outed myself as an NPC

become who you are, guys

I hate to point this out, but... the study doesn't say most people lack an internal monologue

the study said that you don't _always_ have an internal monologue going on

same with all the other criteria

oh yeah good point

in an ironic twist, the NPC meme has evolved from being a bunch of up-their-own-ass e-neets trying to make themselves look cool not understanding a study

to being an organized attack on contemporary social programming

and that's why the left can never combat memes, rofl

They're mutations like which can never be predicted

"During the event, the senior citizens got excited about voting and they danced near the bus as “Say It Loud — I’m Black and Proud” by James Brown blasted through the speakers, Evans said."

Switch one word, blah blah, same old drill. It's almost boring to say it anymore, but stuff like this is real. Perfectly okay. Nobody has a problem. But if we do the same, we're obviously hate filled terrorists. What the hell, man.

article link?

@johnnyc if you're genuinely into sieges, AJ and I have had some great Conversations about siege tactics and their uses in warfare both militarily and culturally. You're more than welcome to jump in on a chat about it some time when it comes up. I'm pretty knowledgeable on siege tactics specifically pertaining to the ancient world

It's all so tiresome. Pointing out the double standards is still useful for winning over conservatives though.

So apparently YouTube is down.

@Kingfish yeah bro i actually did a pretty big research paper on this a couple years ago. would be down to discuss sometime

"YouTube is down"

*it's happening*

omg

MY TUBES

Returning 503, service unavailable

* panic, spazzing, frothing at the mouth *

Yeah, weird. I was just about to ask on here.

I haven’t read Kerns book but I have read Ancient Siege Warfare: Persians, Greeks, Carthaginians and Romans 546–146 BC. And it's really good for understanding the evolution of siege tactics and how it went from hoarding yourself in a fort to a tactical series of defensive positioning which actually required a lot of logistical planning @johnnyc

Time to hop over to audible and spend some of those un-spent credits

@Kingfish I really liked Caesar's ramp at Alesia

@Kingfish definitely will look into that, didnt come across it in my research.

I should really look into how genghis khan handled that situation

because he must have been pretty swift and brutal about it

I really hate to be that guy @TylerHess but that was Avericum

No thanks for correcting me, it's been over a year since I read it

Alesia was insane too

Caesar was impressive not only by being a great general and politician but it was his ability to think quickly and on his feet that people were baffled by

He was famous for being able to move unnaturally fast both physically and mentally

It actually terrified the Optimates how unnaturally swiftly he made decisions with such precision

They figured he was literally being visited by fortuna or was at the least blessed with her fortune because he was able to get himself out of anything

@Kingfish when pompey put down the slave rebellion with no help from caesar... epic

*whispers* maybe it's because we were paying so many of the taxes to begin with...

@Undercover Academic - IL Is this just because of income?

This is pretty incredible

@Deleted User WANT

YouTube down eh?

ahhgeez

alex " anti-hero" jones

Ow gawd.

My twitter, Ned P Commons caught a ban. ☹️

Good news, twitter account #8 and 9 are already made lolol.

Can’t keep a good goy down.

@Felden - CO I've been wondering why I haven't seen any of your posts

Soon enough it's going to be youtube vs twitter

YouTube is pretty great. I haven’t gotten a ban on that, yet

I just spew red pills and shitpost.

Youtube is acting strangely for sure.

Do me a solid and follow FeldenK1 on twitter.

I assume it's a complete sho-, er, exterminatus of everyone right of Cheiftaness Warren.

@Felden - CO followed

About to subvert my school

@Jacob Gloating Goblin Week

@Asatru Artist - MD I use the 🦃 because Thanksgiving is basically "anti-Indigenous Day"

More than even Columbus Day, because normies still celebrate Thanksgiving

Why is everything shitlibs put on a "workshop"

Lmao

@Ald Sounds better than "cabal." 😉

@Asatru Artist - MD Do you think it would be a good idea to add the white bar back to the bottom and sneak in some citations in the fine print? Or would that ruin the theme? It's an easy enough edit I can do myself on GIMP probably, but I'm still deciding if it's a good idea

> my design
> you editing in GiMP afterwards
<:sad:366743316475281408>

y-you can do it

send me the text, ill put it back in.

but do you think it's a good idea?

or would bottom text ruin the vibe?

@Asatru Artist - MD Send in the GIMP!

I guess the original has bottom text

it will fit in better if it looks as close as possible, and the white bottom is pretty obvious

hmm let's get some feedback

@Deleted User You seem to like the design, you think we'd ruin it with some fine print at the bottom?

YouTube is broken... 😔

Utube seems to be down,makes one wonder wtf they are up to and what they're doing with it?🤨🤔

I was just about to watch a Project Veratas video someone sent me with Clare McCaskill

Hubby is trying to see if they are doing maintenance but no luck

Nothing good.

Mass shut down of all right wing channels right before election.
