no u made it very clear what you were talking about, then i told you for a few pages its dumb to talk about that because it doesnt represent you, me, or anyone. u later called it derailing because santara came in after the fact to pick up the philosophical conversation i didnt think was worth anyone's time, and still think is a low IQ line of stuff that doesnt represent reality. we may as well ponder what the world would be like with a red sky or if water had the consistency of mayonaise. this isnt Philosophy 101 lol, been there, was bored by that.

but please tell me who gets freedom as i define it better on the aspects i care about, i am afterall very inexperienced in politics and have no idea who i should support and vote for.


The only way your view of this conversation works is if you are claiming some sort of monopoly on the word "freedom" such that the only possible way somebody could interpret the concept as a whole is to your own personal modern definition, even when I make it clear from the start I'm talking about it in the abstract sense.

You are literally doing exactly what Cam does, even if you are too triggered to see it. Damn, ya know I didn't really put much stock into you being a real libertarian, but the way you've acted in conversation these past few weeks you've really convinced me.

You should join in.

The group that most respects freedom are left libertarians. Right libertarians still want property which is a fundamental abridgement on maximal freedom.

Come at me.

“Be More Chill” is an adaptation of a young-adult novel of the same name. The sci-fi musical follows a high school student who takes a pill, nicknamed a “Squip,” in hopes it will help him become popular in school. The Squip acts like a supercomputer inside his head, telling him how to act if he wants to seem cool. But it comes with risks, and he must choose between the Squip and his true self.

The teen characters mention sex, masturbation, drinking and smoking marijuana. They also curse. Posters for Turlock High’s production advised “mature themes – parental guidance suggested.”


high school play with non-PC mature themes cancelled and theater nerds cry, even though they're losers playing cool kids and probably have parties that end at 8 pm where soda is served.

good, musicals are trash.

I mean, its clearly the responsibility of the administration that they didn't review it before approving it in the first place, the kids have a right to be aggrieved

they for sure have the right to cry, they worked hard on their little songs and dances im sure. and could have spent that time instead doing fiddler on the roof for the 50th time in the schools history.

its just comical it got right on down to the opening of the show to get canned. must have been some angry parent catching wind and threatening to blow it all up to the media.

in the modern era of book banning we're pretending preteens to high school seniors are Jehovah witnesses until they leave for college at which time they turn into adults. childhood forming materials in books and plays that kids can actually relate to and form opinions negatively about drug use and sex aren't ok, only pretending like these things dont exist is.

Amazon is raising prices site-wide by 5%, passing along a 'fuel and inflation' surcharge to sellers.
All items shipped by amazon fulfillment will get the 5% price hike starting April 28

Fewer than 10,000 people are using CNN+ on a daily basis two weeks into its existence, according to people familiar with the matter.

The people spoke with CNBC on the condition of anonymity in order to discuss nonpublic data.

CNN+ launched on March 29. The subscription news streaming service, which charges $5.99 a month or $59.99 annually, only became available on Roku on Monday and still isn’t on Android TV. Still, the paltry audience casts doubt on the future of the application following the recently completed combination of Discovery and WarnerMedia into Warner Bros. Discovery.
