you got it from hexbear because it IS hexbear

Mainly I think it's how Hexbears see everyone outside of hexbear, with no appreciation for how they are also objects in the perception of others as well.

i think maturity teaches you that, which is why it's lacking on hexbear.

It can be true and also apply to the person saying it. We all eat from the trash can all the time, especially Zizek. zizek-theory

Who tf is this zizek guy everyone is referencing

A Slovenian academic who says whatever keeps him in headlines but also has historically had some really interesting things to say, which is why we keep referencing him. The most common reference is to this clip:

And my other favorite one is:

But he has also said all sorts of repugnant things, so I don't hold him up as a particular model for anything except what debasing yourself to please the press does.

I always yell, "I think capitalism sucks!" whenever a room is silent for long enough. Just in case this is the case so we can start a little commune

If it makes you feel any better: I got to experience number 1, 2 and 3 of the "best" passenger train systems in this country and it's crystal clear that each city's elected officials would gleefully destroy the trains like Los Angeles did, if weren't so politically toxic to suggest it now:

NYC's is BEARLY passable as a primary means of transportation (unless you're in Manhattan) and it gets exponentially worse the further from the city center you are located. Chicago is number two on that list and is so unreliable past 9pm that you either have depend on uber or a bus (buses are just as bad after 9pm) and number 3 is so disappointing that I won't acknowledge it by name because it literally shutsdown a majority of its tracks after 8pm forcing everything through such a circuitous paths that it turned my 12 minute drive into a 2.5 hour long exercise in patience and it completely stops before 10pm; before 7pm on the weekends.
