there's so much that humanity knows. how am i supposed to learn all of it. so much art that humanity has made. how am i supposed to read/see/hear all of it

they should make "library but you ask someone what you wanna learn about and they give you exactly one (1) book"

But like what if they had one for chemistry or psychology or histories of medieval periods in Africa and Asia

Kinda sounds like your just shifting the burden of choice from choosing the book to choosing the library.

I think in my mind there's a buncha people named "the asia guys" and then you show up with a nickel and say "eyyy what's a guy gotta do to learn about asia" and then they either tell you something or give you one book (you keep the nickel)

badposting is a comm where you post badly

This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.

Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?

Rules:

  1. Do not post good posts.
    • Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
    • Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
  2. This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
  3. This rule intentionally left blank.
  4. If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.

Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo
