DC is doing amazing work with the Absolute line

It’s getting to me hard right now.

Queen shit

Law 15 - The Throw-in

1. Procedure

At the moment of delivering the ball, the thrower must:

• stand facing the field of play
• have part of each foot on the touchline or on the ground outside the touchline
• throw the ball with both hands from behind and over the head from the point where it left the field of play

The point I intended to make was that I was not being taught to cooperate with my team, I was being taught to cheat as a child.

I do not believe additional discussion on this matter between us will lead to mutual understanding. I am disinterested in competitive debate, and decline to participate further.

Us: the superior wholesome team sports enjoyers
vs
Them: the lesser non-athletes

1. Ableist
2. “Generally used as an outlet” ≠ “there should be no contests”
3. CTE
4. Arm wrestling? Really?
5. “Competition will always exist” -> “It is easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism”
6. Bruh. I remember being told during nursery footy that it was important to run far up the line for a throw-in

Oops it was actually chili.

This diagram has not helped me determine if my slow cooker creation is a pot roast or a stew.

True. Regardless of the dominant political ideology, under the capitalist mode of production the extraction of wealth from and exploitation of the working class would be accelerating.

Well put, nice little short form video for the masses. I agree strongly.

All my profit rates, falling

I have been thinking hard on this subject for the past several weeks. A train of thought in the shower led me to some self crit/analysis where I realized my personal competitive drive feels much more nurture than nature. I hope we can grow out of it, as a species/society.

I think you just described war.

Then I yearn for what comes after. Competitive team sports are generally used as an outlet for tribalism. “Us vs them” is a mentality that I hope we can evolve past. Cooperation over competition.

I agree on this, in terms of personal perception, but I think it’s because I have had a few cats over the years. Cats just kind of looked “grey cat, white cat, stripey cat” to me, with my cat being different and special because I got used to their shape and coloring. Another cat, more distinguishing features become pronounced/observable. Repeat, until now I’m semiconsciously noting facial structure, standard eye dilation, ear size and shape, paunch, pattern, fur texture with every cat I see.

Additionally, the number of cats I come across where I go, “whoa, that’s a cool cat” can only go up, and years seem to go faster over time.

I am made of cells

Dudes rock

I’m seriously glad that’s over.
