Something like that, yeah. I've never been able to get to the bottom of it. Or even just, like, find an old episode where Amber was a guest.

THE POSSESSION OF WEALTH IS IN AND OF ITSELF A SIGN OF POOR VIRTUE. AS SUCH:
1 NEVER TRUST ANY RICH PERSON.
2 NEVER HIRE ANY RICH PERSON.
BY RULE 1, IT IS APPROPRIATE TO PRESUME THAT ALL DEGREES AND CREDENTIALS HELD BY A WEALTHY PERSON ARE FRAUDULENT. THIS JUSTIFIES RULE 2--RULE 1 NEEDS NO JUSTIFIC

The situation with the first iteration went very badly and you don't want to look into it because it's really dark and sad. There have been a few more rebrands and dropped co-hosts but I guess it's just Ashley with guests now.

that podcast starts with the host saying she's a shut in and was very happy that the local parish would send a priest to her, to administer some sacrifices

that was way to intimate for me

i'm behind like 2-3 months on cushvlog but yeah. matts thing isn't that actually neo-christianity/catholicism is good, but rather spiriturality is good and spiritually doesnt have to be some mass-produced mass-media cult thing. i think its difficult for some to reconcile that spirituality being good doesnt mean anything about americana christianity, but rather spirituality over love of humanity, deep and true love that can almost only exist in a spiritualistic sense. he's been leaning hard into a spiritualized awakening the past year but that's not christianity, especially not americana christian deathcult kind

as also does Chris Hedges and they are both completely correct. prosperity gospel is the worship of money and all of its attendant evils, to knowingly cast innocents into the flames so that you may be blessed

has anyone tried to be a Ligotti leftist yet. That seems like a good gimmick for a podcast host. Like a Rust Cohle that supports Medcaid for All.

The Conspiracy Against the Human Race: A Contrivance of Horror is a 2010 non-fiction book by American author Thomas Ligotti.[1] Better known as a horror fiction author, with Conspiracy Ligotti offers a series of essays exploring his philosophical pessimism and antinatalist views. Among others, Ligotti cites Peter Wessel Zapffe (1899–1990) and Emil Cioran (1911–1995) as inspirations for his philosophical outlook. The book is noted for its repeated usage of the phrase "malignantly useless." lol

i wouldn't describe Land as a leftist. i always thought his thing was he wanted technological civilization and capitalism to give birth to some higher form of AI life that would emerge from the dead ruins of our world like a parasitic wasp emerging from the carcass of a caterpillar.

when he coined the phrase malignantly useless he was doing the world a great service. it's a wonderful descriptor for so much of what comprises our hosed up idiot society. the democratic party, for instance, is malignantly useless.
