Ancient humans would understand this and I think that's cool.

What were they thinking?
Gettysburg, what an unbelievable battle that was. It was so much, and so interesting, and so vicious and horrible, and so beautiful in so many different ways--it represented such a big portion of the success of this country. Gettysburg, wow--I go to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to look and to watch. And the statement of Robert E. Lee, who's no longer in favor--did you ever notice it? He's no longer in favor. 'Never fight uphill, me boys, never fight uphill.' They were fighting uphill, he said, 'Wow, that was a big mistake,' he lost his great general. 'Never fight uphill, me boys,' but it was too late.

I was under the impression that it is a perfectly good game with a horrible playerbase. But I suppose certain mechanics, like being able to take your teammates hostage and steal their time without actually playing to win, might nuture toxicity.

This fungus is growing on a hard-packed crushed granite RV pad that gets blasted with afternoon sun. What could be surviving here?
This fungus.

I find that it makes most sense to me to answer "is this and that art"-questions with a yes by default. Is it made by a human with the intent to convey a message? Art. Any other approach always seems to end in questions of taste.

One major reason cities do this is because most fellow spray can wielders will respect the existing work, thus resulting in a nicely painted instead of randomly tagged building.

While I don't like that particular art form and choose not to look at it whenever possible, I'd say yes. A lot of art tries to get you to think, feel or do something and I don't see how this is fundamentally different, even though it seems a little sick at first. From the perspective of, say, the graphic designer for the ad campaign, it might very well be art.

What happened?
Monetization of human weaknesses. By this I mean our biased, emotional, prone-to-addiction brains being colonized for data and ad-revenue.

The need for leaf blowers is induced by covering almost every bit of ground with asphalt. Otherwise the leaves would just... you know... be fine and rot in peace. It's second level estrangement from nature.

Fuck Facists, never again
This is great news. However, I can't help but fear that people went back to their private lives afterwards thinking "well done, we defended democracy". Where to go from here? How to keep people engaged in fighting the right? What are realistic next steps for those of us wanting to do more than voting and the occasional demonstration, other than violence? On another note, how might one approach minorities concerned by the indicated policies to join the movement?

Content aside, this would sound way more credible if it didn't include a snake sound on every 's'.

I disagree. Few things are truly neutral. What people usually consider neutral is just what's normal at the time. The structures within which we live and express ourselves are shaped by people and institutions.

This is amazing. Would you get in trouble if you... you know... just left it?
