Just a stupid joke on the tendency people have to try to reconstruct etymology from the top down rather than bottom up, often using tenuous logical connections lol

Boomers are called that because they were born after the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki

Zoomers are the generation of high speed rail and fast cars

Gen alpha are all chads due to the hormones used in agriculture

By that logic, there must have been a baby zoom in the '90s

I type for a living at times, and switching to a mechanical keyboard helped with the pain a bit. But the other piece of the puzzle was posture. I now have my chair height adjusted such that my wrists naturally float, and my monitor at upright eye height.

Magnolia is probably his best performance, but hard to say how much of that is him disappearing into the role versus the role giving us a peek behind the mask lol

Seems like a pretty reasonable semantic shift to me.

We have will, it just isn’t perfectly free. Our consciousness emerges out of a confluence of intersecting forces, and itself has the ability to influence the flows around it. But to pretend it’s removed from those flows and forces, or exists in some vacuum, is nonsensical, as is pretending that there isn’t some essence behind the signifier “self”.
