Clapton is ok. But he is highly overrated. Prince was GOAT, but severely underrated to the point that it was almost insulting. But check out this video if you haven’t already of this prince solo he did with Tom Petty at the Rock and Roll hall of fame. The story is Prince was insulted that he wasn’t included on the…

It’s only full racist if you own slaves.

He did not have a black girlfriend. He fetishised a black woman like most did in the 70s and moved on when he got his fill.

I used to be into dope, now I’m into racism.

1.) Eminem ain’t no musician. He is a talented Rap artist. Not an MC but a rap artist.

Everyone who has ever posted a comment on 4chan should be drafted and sent to fight in a land war in Asia.

I don’t know what Coates’ full thoughts are. I do think it’s necessary to accept that our system ethically compromises all of us *and then work to change it*. If you tie yourself up in knots trying to make sure you’re not disturbed by the ethics behind the production of your food and clothing, you’re probably making a…

Cornel West called Coates, a person who argued for the paying of reparations, a neoliberal. Reparations is about as un-neoliberal as you can get. He fails to understand the basic terms he tosses around.

The only balls West grabbed with his potshots at Coates were his own.

Jesus.
And you posted this three minutes after the blog was up. You didn’t even read. Just came for the drive-by.

Campaign donation limits = the solution to rich idiots having WAY too much power and influence.

Can you help me understand what allyship entails? As a Black woman, I’m really confused about what people believe goes into being an ally. I see so many people declaring themselves to be allies and then everyone acts as if that label exempts them from unpleasant inspection or correction. So Rose says some of the women…

Yeah, I’m not defending Damon here. I had a really intense debate with a friend who argued that he wasn’t going to stop seeing Woody Allen or Roman Polanski movies because he separated the art from the artist.

Children are so much easier to teach than grown men.

Holy shit. It was not fun watching Roy Moore hold a lead for the entire night. Though it was satisfying to have it reverse with less than 10% of precincts left. Huzzah for meeting some basic level of human decency in Alabama.

With all the ceaseless arguing, toxic fandoms, and very few, but very loud, horrible individuals, it is easy to forget that games are fun. These types of wholesome gaming stories always warm my heart and brighten my days.

Yep. It’s especially good at defusing the “Roko’s basilisk” idea, since an AI that was simulating our universe in order to test us would have to assume that it, too, was being simulated as part of a test, and thus wouldn’t be free to act with godlike abandon either.

But no, that IS the argument - that’s where mathematical probability comes in. If you assume that at some point in the future it will be possible to develop an artificial reality, with fidelity down to the subatomic level, that can simulate the history of the universe, and if you assume that if such a thing is…

Maybe WE’RE the glitches!

They’re basically saying “We can’t figure out how to make a computer that could run this kind of simulation, so it can’t happen.”, which is extremely similar to saying “We can’t figure out how a heavier than air craft could possibly fly, so it can’t happen.”
