  • Not trans, but, is there a chance that it’s Covid related? I was always a big fan of spicy things, and I had gotten pretty used to them before. After the 2 worst times I got covid, since I lost big chunks of my sense of taste (almost completely gone now 🥲), spicy things were kinda easier to sense again. Well, I got used to them again, so they’re back to normal pretty quickly, but the profile of spicy foods in my mouth is very different now. It wasn’t something as dramatic as you’re describing, so not sure.















  • I see. Well, if I take what you’re saying as fully correct, then it sounds like communism compared to anarchism, is just “a different path for how we reach the same utopia”.

    And this different path passes through more authority (quantity and quality), through the existence and emphasis of the state.

    How much authority, is probably what makes the spectrum of Anarchy to Stalin-Lenin.

    And well… As an anarchist, deafboy’s comment might be polemic, but I get it. Any authority that can, will get corrupted.



  • A “truly small” creator, would get , I dunno, let’s say 5% of Disney’s marketed sales, after being stolen from, from being known as the guy Disney stole from. Which would be enormously more than if he only had his “truly small” marketing.

    A more successful and known creator, who would market himself more broadly on his own, would not be easy to steal from, since it would be quick enough for the stealing to be found out, to dampen Disney sales.

    And all this, ignores the paradigm shift in monetisation (Uniquenameosaurus YouTube video), that could enhance this process immensely, and allow artist creativity to flourish even more, without even leaving the diseased economical rules of capitalism.

    and irrelevant little aside

    Also about this,

    As opposed to now where the original artist/author at least has some recourse against the big corporation. Versus none.

    Guns give some recourse to poor people, against the rich, because anyone could use a gun.

    Guns allow the rich to equip their personal security teams, with guns.

    Guns are not helping the poor, and neither does copyright.
