The first time I had a large amount of marijuana, I had sensations that could only be described as the feeling of my internal organs, as if they had skin-like sensory perception. It was extremely uncomfortable!
I thought about getting into real estate like this, but my experience being a poor renter made it feel too parasitic. Does it bother you being a landlord who sucks money out of the situation while adding essentially no…
For every touchy feely anecdote like this there are ten for the subtle stresses imposed by daily commutes.
Not to mention the enormous environmental and social costs of having to move for a new job.
Oh come on. The videos generate ad revenue and youtube takes a great deal of that. It’s a revenue sharing “agreement” (read:monopoly takes its cut).
We as a society actually have the means to provide that, strictly speaking. It is, in the end, the original aspiration of the internet to provide these things in the name of bettering humanity. The problem is that…
The world did crash in 2008, and people did die and starve. The surveillance regime and the consolidation of media together are being used to trick normals into saying exactly what you said in your comment, even as our…
The “Russian interference campaign” is a farce blown up by the same people spying on everyone, to try and manipulate people just like during the McCarthy era. It is the perfect example of old school mass media…

Russia was them finding a way to cover their asses while continuing to push for war and intelligence funding. They lost because Hillary was even worse than Trump. She represented the utter moral bankruptcy of the…
Does it have to be so binary? It's well short of the kind of problem someone suffering directly in poverty feels,and should not be conflated with that experience, but certainly is personal. Also, the personal and the…
The problem is not that they are trivializing the holocaust by comparing Republicans to Nazis, but that they are not also conparing Democrats and our globalized mercenary capitalism writ large to Nazism (in fact the…
No offense, but have you not been watching for the last thirty years? The US has, under Democrat and Republican alike, invaded and annihilated more countries than the rest of the world combined(1). And who are the…
Depression formed on the surface of the earth?
Google is a multinational corporation just as interested in exploiting everything as any other conglomerate. Form determines function at that scale.
Here on hacker news we don't look kindly on those who share direct experience. We prefer wild speculative theorizing.
There are literally dozens of scandal-level revelations in those documents. The fact that you're too lazy to find out about them doesn't change that. Try reading non-US-propaganda once in a while.
