also, what people need to learn is that it's not just 'white men'. the idea is that the people who run society take all the positive credit for the state of society, and most stories are in service of this image of them. Odysseus is not a slave, for example, or John Galt is not a woman for example, etc. It's just that white men were seen as the face of this 'main character represents the leaders and their values' edit: all this to say that what the video gets right for me is that, basically, the only reason that this comparison is possible is because the hero is always an image of the powers that be, which is why that lends itself to repetition

which ironically becomes its own metanarrative anyway, which is why the author of the video is doing the exact same thing...

I don't understand this.

Are you saying woman and people who aren't white cannot go through the Hero's Journey?

I fail to see how it's only used for white men.

he taught at a women's college and told women to stop trying to be like men

TIL this was never about discussing lit

when u take such pride in murdering animals so could have delicious food when there are viable alternatives (vegetarian bacon, chorizo, and sausage can taste identical or better) it makes you seem only one step removed from a MAGA bro. just fyi.

don't forget the magnet lol

video makes me agree Campell sucks.

this is more interesting than 1000 Faces: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Thirty-Six_Dramatic_Situations

What's the tl;dw of why people are hating on the hero's journey?

well the first 10 minutes is just attacking Campell for being a product of his time, and basically his theory is also a product of it's time, and things are a product of their time so you can't have a universal narrative, and I guess structuralism is wrong, and he also doesn't include anything that counters his argument into his theory, and the theory is basically only valid because it depends on heteronormativity that would, it does make sense, make all narratives seem similar when you focus on the person that is presented as being the MC of a work or works that are acknowledged as relevant

a bit pretentious because the author of this video seems to be doing something similar. but, Campell is basically wrong because he relies on a specific identity that has been overrepresented and anything that falls out of that umbrella is ignored- so it's not really a universal narrative.

Why do people study this and not narremes

Watching the video now though >_>

Oh yeah, he can absorb people. I forgot about that

Oops sorry about that

The donut one is the only one I remember

Idk I guess I'm just assuming he's limited by his specs. 17 and 18 are part biological.

I don't know for sure though.

Cell is completely an android thoguh. Can he actually get stronger on his own?

That new scientist character upgrading him would be cool though. Or Fu.

Nice. MacBook are pretty cool, but I only really like the design... No fan is brilliant

For something completely different, it's pretty ok imo

Personally, I see something I don't like online and complain about that.

It's whatever. Make sure you intentionally look away occasionally so you don't seem too intense.

Unless you are referring to an intentional uneven height distribution, then I love it.

Yes, it's the one I was referring to unless there is another one I don't know about

I can give you my favorite nutritional infographic. there are a lot of these you can find as free resources with a quick Google search, but this is my go to if I need to look at the nutritional value of things. Let me know if it helps.

One more thing I'd say is when you're first researching vegan nutrition the things that will be hammered the most are protein and Vitamin B12. between beans, nuts and legumes, tempeh, tofu, seitan, etc, I don't struggle with getting enough protein. B12 I think has been hammered so many times that it's already fortified in a lot of things like nutritional yeast and plant-based milks so I don't struggle with that either. I'm more concerned with the things like Iron and Calcium and the Omega-3 fatty acids.

I did try to go vegan at one point, but I had huge meat cravings because I wasn't getting enough protein I suppose. I can supplement that with powder.

Thanks for the info, I'll probably use the archive to refer to this topic in the future so feel free to fill it up with vegan tips lol

Also I saved the pic, thx

The intellectual history of that time was in fact quite wild. So many geniuses. Very rare these days.

Mead, Shannon, I guess many I had in mind weren't strictly American. But there were also people like Adorno who came to the country after WWII.

I have a joke degree and still can't compete with them

Mom is middle class. Dad is a landlord who will probably never tell me just how much money he makes, but I imagine it's a lot because he pretty much owns most of the town square of where he lives.

I have a hard time being hired for 17/hr.

Can't wait to go to AN now.

Also... DAYDREAMING for sure

Weed but I quit for now

Flobots really calms me down, I like the positive messages they have

Ok. I was expecting a more methodical post with more details, but that's fine.

I really want to start meal prepping and I figure I might as well kill two birds with one stone. I guess my next question is maybe do you have a resource that goes into more detail? I shouldn't expect you to be my personal nutritionist I suppose.

Fwiw the last time I looked for vegan meal prep there were a bunch of weird ingredients that I'd have to order online and I don't really want to do that.

Here we go AGAIN

CE is the web's best kept secret and everyone here is very smart. No joke.

Keep my point to myself, for once. I'm being petty to myself.

Can you recommend a nutritious daily two meal prep plan that is fridge friendly for about a week, with easy to source ingredients? I don't mind eating the same thing every day but it has to have enough nutrition. I drink a powdered meal for breakfast.

Thanks a bunch.

Well, do you want it with one woman or many women? Because there are women out there who want casual. And there are women who want serious. What do you want?

tbh they were right

What do you mean? The person who says smoking in public is bad? I agree. But they didn't attack me specifically, they launched an untargetted campaign.

Are they still on water?

It's a bonus. I do want to have relations and stuff. But not really enough to look for it... But I think at this point I mostly just want the orgasm and social status... And someone close by.

If mattymad is up to it we should revive the discord. Scar left tho so it would be pretty much just him giving out all the advice. Vegy X is there too...

I don't know what that means but good luck. If you're doing it alone I hope it's not a comically massive task... I suddenly remember huge piles of dishes left over from the previous shift

You put up your cart don't you?

What are you afraid to be called out like this on?

I used to smoke in public, for one. Someone drilled it into me that that is not good. If someone "got in my face" on camera I probably would have made a fool of myself.
