yeah I eat rear end posted:You could let every nation still maintain cultural autonomy, a global government imho doesn't require a single culture (or ethnicity for that matter). All the global government would do is provide infrastructure, money and protection/safety. Why should our one world government have a "president"? The world is too big and different for a single government to ever rule effectively, unless its role was that of a token figurehead with no genuine authority over people's lives.

Like anything else, it'd be a more practical affair with fewer people.

It would obviously be broken up into levels, just like countries are now. There is no inherent reason why you can have a country with 1 billion people, but not one with 7.

I just wish there was more stock in citizenship somehow. Anything along the lines of what you want would disproportionately affect the poor (and thus ironically result in more Republican votes).

starkebn posted:fully agree, the hate is pure nerd cargo cult that has spilled over into every office worker now I've worked in a design studio where one of the designers was passionately defending Comic Sans, saying that if used properly it's as good as almost any other font. I think he was brave in his own way.

For me, I just think that Comic Sans looks less 'professional'. Like if Times New Roman is like wearing a suit, Comic Sans is like a t-shirt and shorts. But as Collateral Damage said, it can have its uses.

Middle aged office ladies love comic sans for that reason. When they're leaving passive aggressive notes all over the office they add some cute clipart and use comic sans to lighten the blow.

Japanese TV is unwatchable due to their obsession with putting cheap looking graphics over top of everything and covering the screen in reaction shots of celebrities. Maybe some of these pranks are good or what ever but the 3 graphic and text overlays explaining the joke and 5 celebrity reaction headshots and constant pauses and cuts to see a bunch of characterless jpop stars covering their faces as they laugh ruins it.

The world would become better off if we all just became energy beings. Relinquish the flesh and ascend to a higher plane, becoming one with the cosmos. Open your mind to the infinite realities of the Ubercosmos. I have done this and my aura throbs with puissance. Every second is like an orgasm of enlightenment and pure bliss and I dwell in this mind-space indefinitely until I feel it necessary to descend into the Human Realm and take a huge dump, only to ascend again once having shat. Y'all can do this too, if you work at it.

A corporation's only social responsibility is to its shareholders. Conversely, a government's only social responsibility is to restrict the freedoms of a corporation. Autism is a diagnosis, not a free pass to do whatever you want. Using foreign terms in conversational English is stupid. Stop trying to sound smart by saying "faux pas" instead of "awkward, ugly, and gross". People who swear too much are idiots. English has got one of the biggest languages in terms of words to use. Pick something else, even if "gently caress" is the Swiss army knife of conversation. You should be able to disciple your kids without having to worry about social services coming to take your snot nosed brat away because he's out of control. Sarcasm and irony are overrated. ...yep, think that just about covers it. Edit: stupid phone, I said pas not pax!
