i don’t like harpsichords, but i could forgive that and even enjoy the rest of the album if it weren’t for her singing style. its something about the baby-talk voice, i hate it. i don’t even know why i hate it, but it grates. some songs i hate and laugh, complain, joke about.
this one ill just leave the room, i cannot abide it. i got a little mad just listening to it for a moment when i linked it lol
when i hear “bad to the bone” i imagine it’s a blitzed and stuttering george trying to get one last drink from the bartender in “one bourbon one scotch one beer”
i just listened to that track and it is aggressively hostile to ears
years ago my sister and i had a game takin turns finding the most annoying song to force the other to listen to. i discovered this song and won, by her admission, forever
if you don’t want to be assaulted.
you don’t have to apologize, that’s not my point. in fact i want you to quietly think about how what you said before, and just now might be wrong til it hits home for you.
i know it seems like im baiting an answer. its the net, arguing is fun, nothing’s stopping you from replying, but I’m being straight with you. stop victim blaming. you’re not stupid, im not saying you are. *please, stop. it only helps the oppressor, and we’re all getting stomped by that boot.
i want you to know im not tryina bust your chops specifically. sure, i picked your comment to reply to, but it’s nothing personal.
I’m also speaking broadly to the room, reminding everybody what we already know; that how we look at pervasive surveillance n how we got to live under it is absolutely broken.
i’d like to point out that it shouldn’t be on women (or anyone) to be on constant guard against attacks on their privacy.
yes, it is the state of the world, but the attitude of your comment is victim blaming.
let’s not forget that while we on Lemmy may be aware of the danger of mass surveillance tech, we’re not the majority.
snowden told us years ago how fucked everything is, and surveillance has only grown since then. let’s not forget that it is not normal that corpo data-mining is the norm (along with included de-facto warrantless surveillance). Even though we all should be better, nobody should have to be as careful as we are.
hell, let’s be real. As long as we use a smartphone, we’re not being careful enough either.
care to clarify who you mean by ‘leftist’?
tanked
nice pun cuz iirc he was riding in one while wearing that helmet
you left rickman in which is only proper and correct
Even Elon pays better than this
Lol so even if they were $1 bills that wouldn’t be an accurate pic hahaha
I like my women loud n strong and giving no fucks how i like my women
It’s about time.
To find the One Piece
Sounds like avocado toast-ian blame-shifting to me. Just like the rest of these pieces, they ignore the obvious, horrible conditions of life, and choose to tut-tut at the abused for ‘improperly’ using their free time.
just like the avocado toast shit, the translation of these pieces is broadly:
Look away, reader, from the terrible low wages, high cost of living, and soul-crushing work hours japanese people are forced to endure. Focus your attention on these 19% of young people, who don’t know any better, who you are better than. Laugh at these losers who admit that one time they almost couldn’t cover their expenses!!
Let’s look at the article.
Interestingly enough, while these results indicate that the popularity of in-game transactions may be increasing, the average amount of money spent on them is actually decreasing.
Hmm, could it be the actual problem is the immense increases to CoL young (and all) people have been under? I wonder why the article doesn’t even bring it up? So curious 🤔
Oh well. So like, how much money are we talking about on gacha? How much are these 19% of young folks spending? Must be a ton eh?
Article doesn’t say, but we do get these numbers
In 2024, young people spent an average of around 5,138 yen ($35.85 USD) on microtransactions per month while this year’s survey results state that the average amount of money spent on microtransactions is 4,247 yen ($29.63 USD) per month.
So it’s not a lot, not really. I say again, this article is slop created to take your eyes away from the real problems of the world and victim blame the ones suffering under them.
Oh, i love this
I guess your name means nothing. Having concepts explained shouldn’t make you this hostile hahaha! What a fuggen debatelord omg 😂
I think it was a typo in the article, which made me think of this
The whole idea behind “Supply and demand” require that “demand” can fluctuate as readily as “supply”.
Shelter does not fit the narrow confines of the econ101 S&D concept; as shelter from the elements is a necessity, and so demand does not fluctuate.
But you are correct about S&D existing in the market as it currently stands. Problem is, “the housing market” has moved fully away from a “market of shelter”. It is driven by speculators who hold vast swaths of property and treat these items as a commodity, not shelter. “Shelter seekers” compete with each other and with speculators in this “commodities market” but “Shelter Seekers” are not the driving force of demand, their demand is static.
So you’re right in the sense that supply and demand exists for the current “housing market”, but the S&D are held and driven by and for speculators, it is not a shelter seekers market.
if you like it i am honestly happy to being it to you!
