Yep.
The OG Light Bringer sentenced to eternal damnation for providing knowledge to humans.
And yes, I’m still salty Christians made him the bad guy.
It might seem like a subjective question, but the answer is objectively Prometheus and his replacements in other cultures.
Someone that went against God(s) to give humans knowledge that at the time was considered magical
Like, we talk about how much tech changes stuff today, but fucking fire?
Imagine being alive when your group of humans mastered fire. That shit would have been fucking mind breaking.
I have vivid memories of people having the firm belief that there was something up with the attack on 9/11. Was this just my social circle?
“Conspiracy” covers a lot of area.
There’s people that think explosives were planted because “jet fuel can’t melt steel beams” and they’ve always been ridiculed.
There are people that look at facts that the different intelligence agencies had all the information to put it together, but due to Dick Cheney requiring each agency only report to him, he was the only one that saw every piece of the puzzle and would have known enough to stop it. GW didn’t even know enough, because Cheney was the only one talking directly to GW.
So some people have always thought Cheney (whether on his own or not) allowed 9/11 to happen to justify the wars he started under Regean and HW to continue indefinitely.
There’s people who claim Israel funded and caused it, when there isn’t really any evidence.
There’s people who claim Israeli spies were caught celebrating… But that was undocumented immigrants celebrating they got the day off work.

That’s how conspiracy theories spread.
They took a kernal.of truth and build on it till it becomes something completely out of control.
Immediately after 9/11 everyone had questions and that’s 100% normal, I think that’s what you’re remembering.
It’s not the same as insisiting an unfounded conspiracy theory was true based on spurious evidence.
Kind of feels like it would be more appropriate to make it a post to the fedicerse and not just link to your personal blog…
Almost everyone agrees there should be more compromises in politics
Bullshit.
Republicans want to “compromise” by getting everything they want.
Moderates politicians want “compromise” by giving them half and telling progressives to be happy Republicans only get half.
So most politicians say they want compromise, but I’d have to see a source for “almost everyone” saying it. Most voters don’t want compromise.
It sounds obvious, but have you checked your sound settings?
It’s possible that the default volume slider is tied to the output for the headphone jack. But earbuds are wireless and may have their own. If that sounds level on the PC is maxed at 100%, it would cause what you’re talking about about
You generally want your source to cap at 80% volume, but if that’s still to loud go lower obviously. But you don’t want it so low you’re earbuds are turned up to 100% either.
Volume control on buds or headphones should just be for fine tuning. And you want it to be around the middle for normal use.
Lol, it basically boils down to:
Bug people for money! But not directly, do it thru this and we get X%
Who the fuck wants money so bad, but won’t just give out a Cashapp or something to get 100%?
Why give OP any part of it? Just cuz they want money but can’t get it?
Yeah. There’s also “processing speed” slowling down. And literally information traveling along our neurons happening slower due to plaque buildup.
It’s not just one thing, it’s a bunch of things.
New experiences would make time move slower, but the vast majority of what we do is routine
You might eat a new thing for lunch, but you’re still eating lunch like you always have.
You might walk to a new place, but you’re still walking.
Having a kid is different than not, but have you ever talked to a parent about how repetitive things get? Things change as the kid ages but it changes incrementally, no big overnight changes. It may seem like that, but that’s because the parents went on autopilot and didn’t notice the small incremental changes till something happens where they notice the change. And then quickly get used to it, putting them back on autopilot.
Like, you’ve never heard a single parent say “it feels like yesterday I was changing your diaper!” to a kid in their 20s?
While you can cram a bunch of novel things in to try and help, it doesn’t change the past before you did so. So those years dont have as many milestones and doesn’t feel like much happened, meaning looking back time went fast.
You can try to always be doing new things constantly you’re entire life, but that takes a shit ton of money. And good luck earning that in a way that doesn’t become monotonous and allows you all that time off work to do the novel stuff.
I get what you’re trying to say, but it’s not correct.
The relationship to age is not really causal tho afaik.
It is.
It’s not just our bodies that want to be lazy, our brains do too.
The longer you live, the less novel situations you are in. When you’re doing something you’ve done a thousands time, your brain doesn’t really pay attention anymore, it figures this has been done lots of times and doesn’t need a high level of attention.
Most people are familiar with it on a short timeline with “highway hypnosis” where if you’ve been driving on a boring straight highway/interstate for hours, an hour can go by without you even realizing.
Your brains been driving so long without anything crazy happening, so it just stops worrying about driving.
People think of our brain as a single entity, but different parts handle different things, stuff that’s not novel gets tossed to the “autopilot” more and more as we age because we’re likely doing the same shit as last time.
Huh?
It’s normal for time to seem to pass faster as we age, that always happens to everyone.
But Covid lockdowns also made time seem to move slowly during it, but looking back years flew by.
I think that’s what you meant by “time bending” at least.
hate on people
Again, everyone else is talking about Marvel movies and you keep going on about puppy coats…
Exactly.
And if you read the headline, OP asked about countries, not the people in/from them.
I’m not disagreeing with either of you. Just pointing out you ain’t talking about what everyone else is talking about. Like if someone asked what the best Marvel movie was, and you said making a coat out of 101 dalmatians puppies wasn’t ethical.
Someone that asks what you’re talking about wouldn’t be advocating for puppy coats, they’re wondering why you thought that was the subject of discussion.
Like you could try to argue Disney owns them both so it’s relevant, but it’s still a jump that you made on your own.
The blunt truth is that to them the policies you don’t like are good ones
And I could say I started smoking crack to make my workday as a pilot more productive, and it’s safer because I’m more alert…
And anyone that agreed with me would be as stupid as I would be for saying that.
We don’t have to treat every crazy thing someone says as valid because they believe it. Opinions aren’t facts, and lots of opinions are very very stupid that doesn’t make them magically viable. The real world doesn’t work off Tinkerbell logic homie.
Either you meant to reply to the other person or you completely misunderstood my comment…
By your logic someone can say they’re voting for trump.to.make America great again, and you’d expect people to take that on face value and pretend it’s an honest position.
Like, I don’t know how to break this to you, but fascists lie about a lot shit, most of what they say are lies.
So demanding people pretend they’re not lying, won’t get you honest discussion, because that’s not what you’re doing.
Countries don’t have a unique identity I could like or dislike as a whole.
What exactly would you call a federal government?
Like, you’re taking it as “people from a country” and trying to be high and mighty about it. When literally no one else is having that conversation…
but we’re also an obstacle to backsliding.
Everywhere except reality…
Centrists turn off Dem voters allowing Republicans to take office and fuck shit up.
If Hillary hadn’t literally taken over the DNC in the primary to ensure she won, trump would still be a failed reality TV show host who ran a hilariously inept presidential campaign 8 years ago
Centrist bullshit has real life consequences even if you refuse to acknowledge them.
You think milkshakes are the best food
Medical knowledge says you shouldn’t try to only live off milkshakes
