I am begging people to stop pointing cameras at this jackass

This is the mean prank equivalent of telling a joke, badly, then immediately explaining the joke when nobody laughs

Well, no. It's a cumulation of information that mimics the way our senses actually perceive reality. Things like camera focus, focal length, color, and movement all feed into it.

I'll add it to the list of things society can and should do differently.

"If what we write sounds more real than the news, that's an indictmnent on the news, not us."

Boy, is it ever.

Everything keeps happening so much

Love your use of patterns and texture, it makes the whole image come alive in fun ways.

At the absolute minimum, it was heavily facilitated and encouraged, if not outright coerced. But whether it was his own hands lowering the noose, or someone else's, it happened because of the intervention of powerful people with something to lose.

I could throw a badge into a crowd, and whoever it hits in the back of the head would be able to do these jobs more professionally than this cabal of buffoons who were hand-picked for their lousy personalities.

Like the digital age version of the Victorian "sitting room."

Northern White-faced Owl, it's a type of camouflage mechanism.

I'm confident that a broad majority of addictions would never start in the first place if people's needs were better taken care of. Addiction is usually an act of self-medication.

Nobody should ever be able to sit atop a pile of money they didn't earn themselves. And I mean EARN, not passively funneled towards them via the labor of others.

I'm also extremely hostile towards inherited wealth as a concept. Inherited possessions, sure, that's "your toothbrush" manner of personal property. But wealth? Nobody's survival should be dependent on something like familial means in the first place.

Literally nothing that is required for survival (food, shelter, medicine, etc) or even modest comfort should be paid for personally. We are all collectively responsible for one another's lives. If one of us is hungry, exposed, or sick due to monetary cost, that is a failure on us all.

"Job creation" is just the same old trickle down BS. This pillaging dragon should be permitted his hoard, you see, because sometimes a few coins roll in our direction.

It's funny how they keep accusing the left of having morals like it's a bad thing

What the fuck
