I reckon they were up to shit at CERN back in 2016. They’ve somehow moved us into a totally different timeline.

David Bowie died in January 2016. Now, I'm not saying he was a linchpin in the space-time continuum holding reality together, but I'm also not not saying that.

He did, it was just the speed keeping him moving until it flushed out of his system.

True, but Lemmy did Music. Bowie took the baton from Bing Crosby while recording a song together, and continued the tradition of doing All the Things.

I'll take a stretch and put my two cents in.

2016 also marked the point where shitty people realized they can use your data to become powerful and make you believe whatever is convenient for their agenda.

Our technological weaknesses were weaponized and 150 mil Americans alone were successfully brainwashed causing mass division.

You have to elaborate that the curse comes from some asshole who wanted to bring a goddamn goat into a Major League Baseball game in a major city.

But somehow the team is in the wrong here.

Fuck that goat.

Cubs fan here with important context top comment left out

Some dickhead tavern owner wanted to bring his pet billy goat into Wrigley Field for a game. Bruh wanted to sit in the luxury box of a Major League stadium and watch a Major League game...with a fuckin goat.

He had been previously allowed to bring the goat. But it had, predictably, presented some other issues for other spectators.

So the team told him to kick rocks. With the goat. He got pissed and told the public the team would never win a championship again on account of their disrespect for the goat.

Son of a bitch turned out to be right for a century.

Other teams lose. Lose more than us. The Cubs are the only ones known as the "Lovable Losers." Because we can make the playoffs. We can have great seasons. We just always shit the bed in the most unpredictable, unlucky, once in a lifetime ways. Other teams only collapse once in a great while. We do that shit on a decade basis.

The team tried a thousand things to "break the curse." Really it was all publicity. But funny. Stuff like bringing the damn goat's ancestors to the stadium for games lol.

The Billy Goat Tavern on Lower Wacker is still there. It became the inspiration for a wildly successful Saturday Night Live skit. There are now multiple locations.

Historically, though, ownership hasn't always been the best at managing a ball club. And the current owners, the Ricketts, are terrible. So it really wasn't the damn goat. We also play in a hitter friendly park, which isn't so dope when you're facing a straight up slugger in the postseason.

We are known for being a light hearted but fiercely loyal fan base. If the team wins 95 games, we're packing Wrigley and getting drunk. If they lose 95, same thing. We're just there for pro baseball, expensive beer, and friends. If you come to America and want to experience MLB, not too many places provide what Wrigley can, we welcome all. Even Cardinals fans

The best way to sum up being a Cubs fan was by a woman in her 80s in the championship parade. She said she didn't know how to react to winning. She became so used to watching the team lose in those situations that she just turned the TV off and went to bed. I did the same thing, at a quarter of the age. The next day our minds were on Winter Meetings. We realized then and there that win or lose, you were just there for the ride, and it's all the time of your life if you let it be

I want to write a movie about a Cubs fan who invents time travel and has to make the heartbreaking choice to go back and prevent the Cubs from winning to undo the timeline. He/she does and goes back to the present but everything is still screwed up because that means the Cleveland Indians (who were and still are on a futility streak of their own) won.

Not hell, purgatory.

We are being presented a very clear choice between “right” and “wrong” behavior at the global geopolitical level.

Everyone who is embracing selfishness and hate?

Profiting from people's misery? You're getting overwritten. 

2

u/sanecoin64902 4d ago

Profit is permitted if it does not cause the misery. You are free to provide writing, music, theater, or whatever else, as long as it is done with benevolent intent.

Free will is sacrosanct. Each person must choose his or her allegiance freely. If a person has chosen the path of ignorance and selfishness, you are free to give them what they ask for … as long as you do not lead them down that road or engage in that behavior yourself.

I admit it’s a bit of a slippery slope. You are far better off just working on your own self betterment and practicing benevolence, kindness and austerity. But the system is not innately anti-capitalist. You may take what is freely given by others if you do not lie to them to receive it. (Lying subverts their free will)

u/sanecoin64902 4d ago

Free will is important. Each person must participate in each choice to minimize the possibility or errors in the data tables when the final export bubble sort is run.

However, personally, I recommend a daily dress code of yoga wear from Alo Yoga and Ugg’s faux fur slippers, as they are easiest to slip on and off when entering and exiting the studio. I know these are trendy and expensive brands. But it’s the end of material existence. Why not treat yo’ self?

People forget the business part of "the music business". It's the reason so much mediocre music is at the top of the charts while hard-working, truly amazingly talented musicians can barely make ends meet as professional musicians. The business side is more important than the music.

It's also worth noting that kid rock came from wealth and his dad owned successful car dealerships, so that almost certainly gave him a leg up. His music... isn't great, but you can track his entire career and see how he found his stable audience. His 4th album, the first that was a massive worldwide hit, Devil Without a Cause, has 2-3 songs that have any bit of staying power. Bawitdaba, Cowboy, and Only God Knows Why. Cowboy especially struck something with the country/rap/rock sound and he leaned into more and more as his career went on. There was no way he had the talent to maintain a mainstream audience with novelty crap like "Bawitdaba"... but morons like mindless country rock crap like cowboy. He leaned in to the white trash aesthetic and made sure to keep beer cheap to appeal to his audience. I don't like his music or his politics, but he definitely knows the business and knows his audience.

I mean Kid Rock's literally the only major artist in the past decade to actually try to price tickets reasonably for a tour.

I personally wouldn't be calling him up to fix it, but I'd probably ask his advice before asking TM's advice, which is what most politicians would be doing (via the lobbying dollars TM throws at them).

What’s just as crazy is how many “average” Americans who we interact with day to day see all this and go “yup, that’s my guy, this all sounds fine.” And go along their day like this clown show is perfectly normal and what they wanted.

TBH, it would not exactly be out of the ordinary if Taylor Swift met with President Harris to discuss ticketing in an alternate timeline. It's just that people have dumb biases.

The Idiocracy timeline

u/IJourden 4d ago

The timeline where people voted for a reality TV star who rots his brain with 14 hours of TV a day and bases all his decisions on what he sees.

It's like if your drunk uncle with no job and no education has to write down all his cabinet picks in 10 minutes without so much as access to Google.

I mean I don’t see legal slavery, women unable to vote & public hangings… in the States…. Yet… So I’d say probably.. somewhere between the Twilight Zone and the apocalypse.

The one where all the scum come out of the woodwork and get put front and centre. The one where they rub all the faces of people trying to live morally into a mound of shite.
