I’d already been doing contact juggling by the time the fushigi came out, but the ads implied that you could just… perform a skill by buying their product. It’d be like a company marketing the “mystical multiball” that shows people juggling 7 objects and implying you too could do that if you only owned their particular set.
I agree with you that a large part of the problem is that destruction is easier than creation, but it wouldn’t be hard to get a lot of progressive things in if there were the political will for it. Appoint tons of progressive judges and start putting through huge increases in wealth taxes, climate and social programs, workers/union rights, scale back police power, etc etc.
But even if there were hundreds of leftist judges waiting in the wings, the dems are too corporatist to support stuff like that, so the best they can offer is some social programs that won’t upset the status quo too much.

I still use my s10e every day on my commute with the headphone jack plugged into a radio tuner so I can listen to podcasts
That’s Aku. A coup is how actors know when to go on stage.
The point isn’t really about the conscious level of advertising so much as what worms its way into our subconsciousness. The layers of psychology run far deeper than most of us would like to admit. Check out this clip of Derren Brown manipulating 2 guys in the ad industry to create pretty much the exact ad he forced them into
Yeah, this is like saying “ads don’t work on me”. It fundamentally misunderstands pretty much everything about the topic.
What’s it look like without wax?
Been meaning to go back and finish Subnautica. I had a good time with it but one sea moth got destroyed bc I couldn’t find the zap key in time and I got ejected from another when it was really deep and couldn’t go back down and get it without collecting more resources.
I enjoyed the game but I wish it was like 10% easier with QoL improvements, like having a bigger inventory, your ship respawns, etc.
I like the PS2 ad that pretended to be a PS9 ad
Did they ever fix the issue that an American teen used a hilariously bad interpretation of the Scots language to write thousands of articles on the Scots wiki?

Can you post or link to some of those obscure characters?
Just artifacting I think. There’s a slight yellow color in the middle of the bottom serifs of the h that is similar to other h’s and which isn’t present in the b’s

I never watched Carson but then I found out about art fern a couple years ago. Looks like I’ve got another set of sketches to look up now
Now if they could just stop their shady lumber sourcing practices, that’d be great
