The YouTubers watch a crazy Japanese music video that went viral called, ME!ME!ME! feat. daoko by TeddyLoid!
The video always makes me a bit uncomfortable. But maybe that’s because I feel vulnerable to the message…
I like Markipliers response to it, though. Despite how I’m really made uncomfortable, it really is beautiful.
He is paying his fair share.
You’re just not doing everything you can to reduce your taxes.
Open a retirement account, and put money in it. It’s non-taxable.
And a health savings account.
Claim tax deductions on the money you spend on work as business deductions. Business travel deductions, as well. Even when you’re on vacation, if you make it a business trip in some way.
Donate to charity. Fuck, Elon Musk gave $5.74 billion in 2021.
All of this, on top of the fact you’re looking at his NET WORTH, not his income, and expenses. You can only be taxed on your income. You deduct business expenses from your income. If Elon Musk goes negative, and starts spending more than he’s making, he doesn’t pay taxes.
But more importantly? Fuck the US government. Idgaf if Elon pays ANY taxes, because fuck the US government lol. You shouldn’t pay taxes either.
Twitter LGBTs are so sanitized it’s embarrassing
Why are they like this
this was a prophecy
In case you're still reflexively on the fence when I proclaim that the conversation about AI has progressed to a truly batshit level of reactionary mythology, people on twitter are currently calling out the animators for Spiderverse for using a digital interpolator to assist with lining, because a documentary used the term "machine learning" to describe it.
Apparently using digital tools is taking work away from real artists. I am excited for 6 months time when the discourse has evolved into "all movies should be hand-inked on the inside of Palaeolithic caves to escape the corrupting labour-stealing influence of the pencil".
(Yes this is currently a minority opinion in this instance, largely because people just really like Spiderverse. But the fact that these arguments are being seriously made shows how far off the deep end this conversation has gone. These types of arguments for blanket technology bans already made little to no sense due to the double standard applied, and this demonstrates that by removing the double standard and taking them closer to their logical conclusion - all labour saving tools are bad, especially if they involve a spooky computer algorithm).
y'all ever think about how the paint bucket tool on MS paint is stealing jobs because someone could have been filling in those pixels by hand
we need to force artists to do mindless busywork for hours and hours so that technology doesn't win
