  • History gone woke for good and I’m tired of pretending this is ok. We need our foundation myths. How else are we supposed to keep our nation states running if we don’t have a shared origin just because it’s “factually false”? What does that even mean? How else will be keep capitalism alive if we say “barter doesn’t work” and “tragedy of commons”? I know barter never really existed and there are many moneyless economic systems and that the tragedy of commons is empirically disproven but don’t let wokeness win! Facts don’t care about your feelings and nation states and capitalism is fact!



  • Big upvote for admitting your error.

    In general, emoticons are easy to write with a normal keyboard, otherwise they don’t fulfill their job of being useable in normal conversations. Exceptions are few ones that include kana which for Japanese people are easy to write but which were adopted by westerners like the shrug emoticon I have to google each time but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Fun fact: Japanese emoticons are called kaomoji (face characters) and developed independently from western emoticons. Emoji means “picture character” and is etymological unrelated to emoticon or emotion or anything.
