thats kind of the endgame of socialism though, fully automated society where all your needs are provided and there's no incentive to work more than you have to, basically the NEET dream

Translation: I have no clue what socialism is.

socialism
sSHlizm
noun
a political and economic theory of social organization that advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole.

oh ok so you dont actually want to try and refute anything i said lol

Life ends at age 27.

Prior to age 27, you will have what is considered a "life", which will be active social & romantic interactions, a diverse set of interests, and a lifestyle that is unique to you.

Past age 27, your "life" will now be a series of interconnected actions designed to prevent you from dying or suffering from abject poverty/loneliness.

Why 27? Is that because that's the age you got married?

I'm glad you asked.

At age 27, your career will likely begin to become settled or ramp up, so you're going to be working 40+ hours a week on a professional job. As a result, the vast majority of your time from this point forward to likely the day you die or become too senile to work anymore (good luck retiring) will be revolving around work/sleep.

On the social side, you will never have another meaningful relationship in your life past age 27, because around this age is when your friends start getting into serious relationships/getting engaged/getting married.

If you are single, you will pretty much never see them again, and when you do it will have to be outings scheduled 6 months in advance where your buddy (who you no longer can relate to) has to leave early because him and his wife have to get up early the next morning to look at paint swatches in Home Depot.

If you have a SO yourself, all your current and new friendships will now morph into "couples friends", where your SO meets a girl she likes, and assumes that since you and the girl's boyfriend/fiancee/husband/manslave have the same reproductive organs that you will get along.

After couples friends comes something even worse: once you have kids, you will now be demoted to having "parent friends." This is when your child meets another kid that has a shared interest in finger painting or booger picking, so you arrange a playdate and are forced to interact with the other kid's parent(s), who in this case are people that you have even LESS in common with than the couple friends.

As your kid gets older and his or her friends change, so will the parent friends filter in and out of your life, until your kid is old enough to socialize on their own and you realize that you haven't had a meaningful social connection in the last 20+ years.

"But GB," you might say. "I know how to beat the system! I'm going to have hobbies! I'm going to have an activity that I love to do that will allow me to retain some individuality, and I'll meet friends through that!"

Sounds good, but unfortunately this is not the case. Functional adults do not have hobbies; they simply do not have the time nor energy to waste on frivolous amusements (their "hobby" will be watching 30 minutes of TV a night before bed).

As a result, you will be stuck with the social leftovers; you'll be painting Warhammer 40k figurines with obese 35 year old men who live with their parents, in a crowded gamestore frequented predominantly by the same young children that you are obligated to set an example for back home.

Have fun. This is life past age 27 and it is overwhelmingly bleak.

1. hire an actual screenwriter to write the film, rather than have Tommy Wiseau write it, like Disney seems to have done

2. Set a hard limit, punishable by death, for how many 4th wall breaking jokes you can put in. You get 3 for the whole movie, not per scene.

3. Kill off Leia in space

4. Remove the Canto Bright scene, the whole thing

5. Remove Rose

6. Create a plotline for the movie that is not a nonsensical low-speed car chase

7. Have Luke Skywalker act like Luke, so people that liked his character in the iconic trilogy can continue to like him, and not kill him off by doing Luke Skywalker VR

7. Develop Snoke as a character since he is pretty much the only alien in the whole fucking film and we learn absolutely nothing about him

8. Dump the Yoda scene, it was stupid to have to have Yoda come back to talk sense into Luke, as if all of his character development throughout the original trilogy was for nothing

9. The bomber scene bugged me too, how the fuck were they dropping physical bombs in space? There have been photon torpedos and shit for decades in Star Wars

10. Add in aliens and shit like that. The whole appeal of Star Wars has always been the scope, but it seems like Disney is more concerned with having humans of different races for kids to buy halloween costumes for than to create an actual intergalactic universe like Lucas did

11. Give Finn a meaningful sideplot. I get the point the writers were trying to make with him but it barely even tied in with the narrative at large, which is ridiculous for a movie like this

man i could go on for hours, god damn I hated TLJ

he's a real piece of shit

I'd love to hear what he's said that you don't like you'd have to source it of course, if you're gonna claim he's alt-right. He's definitely not haha.

wowee.

first of all he started the proudboys and advocated for the Unite the Right rally until it got violent, and then he disowned it as a CYA measure.

you can hear the creator of the rally go onto his webshow and express disbelief that Gavin was pretending he was NOT a supporter of it after the violence.

beyond that, i think he is just a generally disgusting person. I am a longtime fan of Vice and have been reading it for probably a decade, so i am familiar with his work at Vice. I read his book The Death of Cool. I've watched a bunch of his videos on Rebel Media.

I used to think he was a pretty funny and edgy dude, but as I have been more exposed to Gavin I've realized what he really is, which is a truly despicable & unpleasant person who got by with his "punk" persona for a long time, until people realized that this was just him and not his gimmick

life isn't about the un-explainable joy of raising & shaping a human life, creating a happy family that will have a ripple affect on the world at large, and viewing your life in the spiritual context of the "big picture."

the renaissance, the enlightenment, all the great works of humanity pale in comparison to the noble quest of obtaining personal happiness through pointlessly working for someone else's company and filling up the rest of your life with idle amusements, weekend trips, checking out that great new brunch spot that just opened up, etc.

life is about hoarding as much money as possible so that you can retire early and spend your free days playing league of legends competitively and trying new craft beers, until one day you die of a massive heart attack in your home, and nobody finds your body until weeks later, when it is almost fully decomposed, you have to be identified by your dental records, and your estate is sold off at a government auction.

the worst is when you get forced puzzles into a game, like with Uncharted 4.

there the puzzles are mostly "rotate these statues till they look like the picture that you can bring up with the start button", yet the game feels like it's compelled to include these puzzles just because otherwise it's nonstop platforming and shooting
