Best advice I was ever given?

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

Can the thread help me find a half remembered meme from ages ago? It was a political compass, each quadrant labeled with something like "everything is [blank], except [blank], which is cool" I think authoritarian right was "everything is genocide, except for genocide, which is cool" and libertarian right was "everything is theft, except for theft, which is cool" and maybe libertarian left was"everything is violence, except for violence, which is cool." Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Edit: lol I found it five seconds after posting this

I think the quality of the Epstein memes is fine, it's just that like... y'all do realize that yes, he literally killed himself, right? Like he hanged himself dead?

I mean we absolutely don't know for sure that he did it all by himself or wanted to.

He was allowed to, for sure. Either by design or through systemic and highly convenient coincidental gross negligence.

TBH it seems fishy as gently caress but it’s not like they’re gonna audit their suicide ward to see if this kind of a security fuckup was a regular thing or not. (It probably was because our prison system is hot fuckin garbage lmao)

The guy who was about to testify about the wealthy elite just happened to perfectly time his suicide with the exact moment all the cameras went off in his cell block and the guards were reportedly sleeping. He even managed to do it in a way that had an independent medical examiner determine it was definitely not self-inflicted.

He was a wily one, that Epstein. I guess we'll never find out anything about "our faves".

I think people are just so inundated with the simplicity of TV, movies, video games that they forget how breathtakingly complex real life is.

Any "moment" in time, no matter how humdrum or significant, is a result of trillions upon trillions of variables coming together in one unique instance. Your trip to Starbucks this morning probably felt like nothing special, but if you'd been hit by a car or a piano fell on you, that moment would seem unfathomably coincidental. Just by changing one detail.

Ol' Swearengen never went to that Starbucks, he always went to the other one! (which happened to be closed that day). He always took a break at 1:00, not noon! (he had a dentist appointment that day). In fact, Friday is his day off so why was he even at work? (he switched his schedule for his niece's birthday party). And the driver of the car was his jilted ex lover! (coincidence)

Look it isnt my fault that I happened to be carrying my candy sack and forgot to take off my halloween mask when I went to the bank and found a gun in the parking lot that I took inside to see if someone dropped it and when I yelled out "I have a gun" everyone freaked out and the guard shot at me so I had to shoot back and then the woman threw money in my sack and I ran away because I was scared to my car that my friend who also didnt remember to take his mask off was waiting in. It was all a bunch of coincidence, you gotta believe me.

Jeffrey Epstein was personally murdered by Bill Clinton, Donald Trump and Prince Andrew in a Buddy Assassin laugh-fest for the ages. In theaters Summer 2020. Rated NC-17.

Honestly this is why the memes cross over from Amusement to Harmful. The conspiracy theory that prominent Democratic party members were behind the 'murder' is 100% propagated and fueled by the political right and will be a major factor in Trump's 2020 reelection.

Dude was acting like he was going to get released again until the first time someone tried to kill him, which was why he was put in the supposedly suicude proof cell to begin with. This isn't even touching every thing that happened at the same time he "suicided himself" nor the fact he was working with his lawyer to secure his assets for when (he thought) he'd be released. There's literally no evidence to suggest he killed himself.
