The most important tenet of conservatism is to just assume the past is what you think it was.

I mean, we did also end up in the timeline, where conserving the planet Earth is somehow the progressive stance, even though the Earth was kind of important in the past, too. So, I think it's rather that these labels are nonsense, and conservatives just allude to a (fictional) past when it fits their preferred narrative.

There is no universal and eternal concept of what a "man" is

I will always use scanline filters on my emulators and nobody can convince me not to.

I'm guessing the whole texture was created on a CRT screen. The artist obviously had the shading skills, where they could've faded the eyes red-to-grey, but well, there was no need to.

I wish I could find some filters for linux... but none of them seem to work. ;-;

Any recommendations? I was always bothered by that, but never thought it was possible to emulate crts too. I'll have to look them up now

Depends on what you use to emulate and how much you want to hurt the device.
I usually emulate using RetroArch and it got all the CRT shaders you might want. Unless you get really into it. Look for CRT shaders with words "hylian glow", geom and royale. There even exist some advanced shaders for high refresh rate monitors that try to emulate CRT beam.

You can also check out Retro Crisis on YouTube to get started.

That's not just scaliness but a full-on CRT shader with phosphor glow and stuff 👌

Any recommendations? I just found out about it, so any pointers are appreciated while I research about it

Yeah at this point it's been long enough we've had a generation of kids raised on the former

In my opinion scanlines only look good on a real CRT. You need the brightest OLED to make those CRT shaders look fine.

You are still a featherless biped. Also your nail come back, stronger, harder.

What man? Which man? Who's the man? When's a man a man? What makes a man a man? Am I a man? Yes. Technically I am.

One of those canonical seas, the Aral, is almost completely gone, that dove had better hurry!

Someone should post the "dress like a man" image with astfolo pointing out high heels and etc used to be for men

The OP meme is Rob McElhenney and Glenn Howerton from It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia. They are very much alive.

OK, that white was cocaine. Guaranteed they're dead.

For the record, I know the pic was from IASIP. OP's joke was not based on that.

You could really be a Beau Brummell, baby, if you just give it half a chance.

Is it being prepared to do the right thing, whatever the cost? Isn't that what makes a man?
