very nice. I transcribed Charlie Parkers solo on Anthropology, and it is certainly not bass-friendly. I imagine its tough on trumpet too because saxophones are so uniquely good at playing zig zag lines

Doesn't stop people from getting the blame for being fucking stupid.
I'm not even sure I believe in intelligence as a concept, let alone the idea that it can be measured to the extent that we'd be able to pinpoint a spot where someone becomes "stupid." certainly any reasonable definition of "smart" would apply to some anti-maskers, trumpers, and qanon conspiracy theorists

so no, I don't think "being fucking stupid" has anything to do with this, and I think it's extremely unproductive to frame it as though it does. I also think it's extremely unproductive to shift the blame onto individuals who are like, eating at restaurants, when it's clear that policy and messaging from the people in power are the single major factor in how well a given area deals with the pandemic

The sad part is we knew back in like April that these things would really keep the spread at a minimum, people just didn't want to fucking do it.

A lot of people have died that didn't need to because those pricks didn't want to be mildly inconvenienced by wearing a mask.
please do not attribute the US' failure on a systemic level to individuals.

this is pretty much entirely due to a lack of effective action and messaging on the part of elected officials.

Don't agree with this. In fact, abstract art was heavily pushed by the CIA in the cold war to promote american culture internationally as being free, open to new ideas, etc to undermine communist regimes. Which is quite amusing, given the ideas were manufactured and promoted by the government and not naturally embraced by the culture. So anyway, I don't think you can assume all facists would dislike abstract art.

Plenty of reasons to hate Trump's time in office, but he's not the US president anymore. And he's very likely to never be again. His "legion" lost. Battle's over. Go home and stop letting a dethroned figurehead live rent-free in your head after he's no longer in power.

You hate Trump? Congratulations, you won. That should be the end of his chapter. Devote more of your resources moving on and healing the world. Wasting more time on him is the direct opposite of that. It ironically contributes to the extension of "Trumpism".
the GOP is still very much Trump's party. and he may have lost the "battle", but the war is far from over.

even if Trump can't get elected again, there's a very strong chance that someone like him takes over the GOP. and this new figurehead might actually be competent

but for real, oblivion quest updates are like I've heard that a famous painter named Rythe Lythandas has gone missing. Apparently, his wife Tivela has been frantically searching for him. Perhaps I should visit their home here in Cheydinhal to see if I can assist with the search.

and skyrim quest updates are like kill the dragon at shearpoint
tbh I'm less concerned about the way the quests are described before undertaking them than I am about the quests themselves

though it's true that Skyrim's writing quality is extremely inconsistent. the Forsworn questline and the Thieves Guild questline stand out as particularly terrible

I wouldn't say so. You're not exactly enlightened if you follow up a joke about a close-minded Republican with a joke about how immigrants in ICE detention centres deserve to be sprayed with caustic chemicals, for example. A joke about Ronald Reagan's mind turning to mush and a joke about a patient of the AIDS crisis having too much buttsex don't exactly cancel each other out.
I'm not sure if you're referencing actual things that South Park has done, but I could certainly imagine them doing that. the "covid special" episode that I watched a few weeks ago equates the racial justice protests with the "I want to go shopping" protests
