Does anyone remember seeing a graph that showed the trend of how U.S. politicians voted on issues? Specifically, the image was chronological, going from the past at the top to the present at the bottom? I'm trying to find it without success.

Nevermind, I should be asking in the politics section. Apologies.

Holy shit, thank you.

Thank you Cadet Fitz. I have been trying to find this off-and-on for well over a month.

There's a book that details the achievements of the past 100 years or so under western capitalistic society who's name escapes me. Does anyone remember the name of it?

It was written by a reasonably well known author fairly recently, I think.

Memes permitted in this channel?

!agree

2018-08-09 01:51:57 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Figured. I lack permission to psot there it seems.

2018-08-09 01:53:41 UTC [Sparta #general]  

How do I rid myself of that affliction, some kind of special shampoo?

2018-08-09 01:54:00 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Ah, thanks.

2018-08-09 01:54:38 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Fair enough. Thank you.

2018-08-09 23:32:25 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Holy fuck. Jeff Holiday went onto Dr. Phil to debunk some magic juice that seems like it must have been poured over a brick of salt.

2018-08-09 23:39:29 UTC [Sparta #general]  

From what I hear, yeah.

2018-08-09 23:40:41 UTC [Sparta #general]  

It's surprising for me to see a crossover between Youtube and television.

2018-08-09 23:40:55 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Given the trend, though... Maybe I should be expecting more of that.

2018-08-09 23:43:39 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Sure, but aren't loads of people being served up videos from that cadre of unfunny late night hosts? Isn't it received wisdom that those media companies are dying and trying to parasitize internet audiences?

2018-08-09 23:44:25 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Evidently neither of us.

2018-08-09 23:45:25 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Yeah? Anything worth paying attention to?

2018-08-09 23:45:57 UTC [Sparta #general]  

S18E09.

2018-08-09 23:46:06 UTC [Sparta #general]  

I was just looking it up. I had no idea.

2018-08-09 23:55:35 UTC [Sparta #general]  

I'm not looking forward to trying to learn common core, or whatever passes for it here, when my kid is school-age.

2018-08-09 23:56:02 UTC [Sparta #general]  

People still talk about "new math."

2018-08-09 23:56:09 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Fuck knows what was wrong with old math.

2018-08-09 23:58:56 UTC [Sparta #general]  

If you start picking at the threads in the education tapastry, you're going to end up remaking the whole thing.

2018-08-10 00:19:09 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Ouf. I remember our autocad lab had chipped up 386 compaqs.

2018-08-10 00:19:42 UTC [Sparta #general]  

These things had this awful riser card and an aluminum crossbar that made it impossible to get anything done inside the case.

2018-08-10 00:20:50 UTC [Sparta #general]  

I don't remember much of what we played. Cannon Fodder comes to mind.

2018-08-10 00:20:56 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Oh shit. Scorched Earth.

2018-08-10 00:21:08 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Nah.

2018-08-10 00:21:39 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Soccer?

2018-08-10 00:22:06 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Oh yeah? Huh.

2018-08-10 00:22:18 UTC [Sparta #general]  

In Canada, we had a trucking game in place of Oregon Trail.

2018-08-10 00:23:25 UTC [Sparta #general]  

More or less, yeah.

2018-08-10 00:25:17 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Carreer indoctrination out this way would be more along the lines of how to curse in French, bait lobster traps and apply for the dole.

2018-08-10 00:27:45 UTC [Sparta #general]  

When I was working at this logistics outfit, I'd plan my route to drive past the bread factory. Best early morning decision I've ever made.

2018-08-10 01:10:30 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Q?

2018-08-10 01:53:57 UTC [Sparta #general]  

I've never played Fortnite. I've seen less than ten minutes of actual gameplay. For some reason, I absolutely detest the game and can't articulate why. Anyone else?

2018-08-10 15:01:44 UTC [Sparta #general]  

Too late for that.

2018-08-13 17:22:39 UTC [Sparta #general]  

One rule for thee, one rule for REEE-

Curiosity mostly. I followed the link from the Subreddit.

2020-02-09 22:36:39 UTC [Men's Human Rights #lounge]  

I was going back-and-forth with a self-identified progressive friend of mine, and started branching out looking for light reading to demonstrate some of the problems that men face.

2020-02-09 22:37:12 UTC [Men's Human Rights #lounge]  

Actually; how often do you folks people use the term "manosphere" unironically?

2020-02-09 22:39:55 UTC [Men's Human Rights #lounge]  

Yeah, I noticed that. Thanks.

2020-02-09 22:45:29 UTC [Men's Human Rights #lounge]  

I was just in examples, but I'll check stats; it sounds more like what I was looking for. Friendo had posted an article lumping in the MRM with other male-focused movements, and the tone of it came off as concern trolling on the part of the author of the article. It's not my first rodeo; it's mostly a shame that reasonably intelligent people trust in what some publications chose to release as truth.

2020-02-09 22:46:37 UTC [Men's Human Rights #lounge]  

I mean... Drawing a moral equivalence between the MRM and PUAs. Christ.

2020-02-09 22:46:48 UTC [Men's Human Rights #lounge]  

It speaks to a fundamental misunderstanding of what's going on.

2020-02-09 22:46:57 UTC [Men's Human Rights #lounge]  

Either that or malicious ignorance.

2020-02-09 22:47:18 UTC [Men's Human Rights #lounge]  

Yes, precisely.

2020-02-09 22:47:50 UTC [Men's Human Rights #lounge]  

I think that there's a core of individuals that do. People involved in crafting a certain worldview for personal and ideological gain.

2020-02-09 22:48:41 UTC [Men's Human Rights #lounge]  

Hanlon's Razor. Ish.
