I've always sort of wondered the obsession and deep emotional connection some people have with sports.
The best I can come up with is its part tribalism, but more so I think it's experiencing vicarious success. If you put in the emotional work to follow your team, especially with a displaced loyalty during losing seasons, their successes are your successes by proxy, but it also distances you from their failures.
Success irl is hard to come by and this is a chance to feel success without actually working very hard towards it, other than the emotional investment
Idk does anyone have any other thoughts why some people get so attached to their team?
Are you by chance Amy Schumer?
Also this bit made me think of a new combo of words I never considered would end up together: genocidal slacktivism
I think the worst part about the NFT grift wasn't the invisible commodities pyramid scheme itself, but just offensively bad the art was.
I'm on the subreddit now, Brace is doing a live ama with Israeli Marshmello and 50% of LMFAO (who are not laughing their fucking asses off at the moment, given the circumstances) to raise money to re-attach baby heads to babies. Also apparently Liz got trench foot and died on the way back to her home planet.
Sure the trueanon sub and the pod (mostly Brace) are somewhat irony-poisoned, but the sub became a beacon for all sorts of online leftists, and hanging out there (similar to here) makes me feel relatively sane in world that seems to refuse to learn anything from its egrigious previous mistakes (like war crimes, for example)
I've used PremiumSpores.com and have no complaints, fast & affordable.
To be fair, I doubt a true boomer would be able to understand any part of this comment. Any person born before 1993 can't jpeg, all they know is download virus
Why only bud light and miller lite, I'm coors light!
A big part of why office work is so soul-sucking is because of the internal sacrifice you have to make to your individual personality.
Basically, you have to compromise who you are as a person to fit the benign, false-friendly unoffensive neutrality of the company's branding.
Since clearly the company's "personality" is just carefully curated marketing optics, it comes off as disingenuous and inauthentic. Then people sort of have to fit in those unnatural molds in exchange for the stability of working there.
Thanks for the info, any idea how much Swift charges? Appreciate it
