You heard it here first: you should only fear the market once it becomes a bazinga-imperative robot god. Before then, lazy women keep the worst excesses of the market in check, which Grimes claims is a good if temporary thing... i think? 
Jesus, imagine just out right being like: "actually feeding human beings into an insatiable machine is good"
What a creepy lady
She must have read some Nick Land, and in her "gobble up anything techbros and techbro bootlickers say as very smart" belief system she must have seen the meth-powered old man yelling at clouds as a super genius.
Yeah, it's crazy right. Dirty owl must have summoned him with that post the other day
Grimes is peak delusional. Everything I seen her say seems like it was said in a fever dream. It is
but irlShe's paid a lot to keep bullshitting in a vaguely techbro power fantasy way while LARPing as the average
's wet dream, so she has no material incentive to stop doing it.
This is what happens when you make music that sounds like a microwave.
I feel the same way about Grimes that I do about Kanye West: I didn't like the music to begin with, liked the message/themes of the music even less, and yet there was a great fandom wall of "this is a tormented genius, separate art from artist" immediately erected once they got their cryptofash on.
I've never understood the fascination with Kanye West. I knew so many people who just thought he was an absolute genius. The same goes with Taylor Swift.
I feel a bit like a contrarian in that I tend to avoid anyone that large numbers of people call a genius in the music world.I've never understood the fascination with Kanye West. I knew so many people who just thought he was an absolute genius.
I got pushback everywhere, including on this site, during my early attempts to criticize him. He was literally announcing he was a god even at the time, but tormented artist this and separate art from artist that.
I can't follow the first part. I think she's partially figured out the "capitalism as real god" paperclip maximizer thing and is crediting women with keeping it from happening, but doing it in an extremely awkward way.
I don't think she has any motivation to have a complete or coherent thought: all she has to do is shove techbro fantasy cliches into a vocalizer the way Bill Murray's Hunter S. Thompson crammed random scraps of newspaper into the fax machine to temporarily shut it up.
regulations protecting us from grime's delusional future by preventing laissez faire capitalism, I think
lazy women protecting us from grime's delusional future@WhyEssEff@hexbear.net brings the best emotes, folks. The best. Believe me.
When she finally saw the movie, she realized to her astonishment that this story she’d adored since she was far too young for it, that she knew almost by heart, that inspired her first album—this story was now her story. Specifically Lady Jessica’s story. This goes by fast onscreen, but Jessica (played by Rebecca Ferguson) is not a wife but a concubine. Grimes saw herself in Jessica, and she saw X in Jessica’s son, Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet). Paul is more than a duke’s son. He’s a chosen one, tasked with becoming a great leader. “When I see X,” she says, “like, I just know X is going to have to go through all this really fucked-up shit that sort of mirrors Paul-type stuff.” Watching it wrecked her. “I was just crying my eyes out the whole movie.”

it's a middling, trite sort of dumbass that thinks their kid is destined to be the savior of all humanity. it takes a very special sort of asshole to claim it publicly and tell a story about how you internalize this notion so hard, you sobbed at a movie.
G E R L R I D I O T C H I L D M N C O E H O S F U SBefore Paul Atreides was mentioned I thought they were talking about Jessica in Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Didn't Musk say he was interested in her because she was aware of Roko's basilisk, meaning she was smart? Lmao.
Rokos basilisk? What's that? I just wamma watch rokos modern life
I don't think we should be giving small cartoon wallabies lizards with stone-turning gazes.
I wonder if she'll start stacking the pandering props and wear multiple cat ears, elf ears, glitter, light-up neon and quasi-cybernetic props (and costume pieces from recent hit movies) and do it while pretending to be decade-too-late steampunk elf and an uploaded hologram and a robot that attained consciousness and the sapient gestalt of all human communication exclusively through The Everything App Le Epic X Dot Comm all at the same time to try to spike that revenue.
Grimes I get that you like Dune but nobody is going to let a bunch of silicon valley dweebs literally become the Tlielaxu and I need you to stop zapping yourself with the bimbofication ray you're already drooling your brain out on the floor for everyone to see and it's fucking embarassing
Even Tleilaxu hated capitalism and if someone of the addled neofeudal brains in universe actually compared their public image with numbers they would swiftly get the clue something is mighty sus there (mentats are shit i guess, fuck the butlerian jihad).
Does she have Havana Syndrome? Her brain don't work too good.
I nonjokingly think extended and intimate exposure to
left a lasting impression, even now, when she is ostensibly opposed to him and trying to get custody of her kids.It's like how a lot of self described ex-Mormons still have a ton of Mormonism's baggage.
The copious amount of drugs and bazinga technobabble from being in
's inner circle is probably enough to thoroughly scramble a brainI've linked about such things before, but there's an entire subsection of Silicon Valley's social structure that's designed around drugging and effectively reprogramming impressionable young women into asymmetrical sexual relationships with rich creepy men, often under the vague promise of money and access to the techbro boys' club.
CW: sexual abuse, mental abuse, emotional abuse

This is what happened to that Aella lady, right? Grew up in a religious cult, ended up in a secular cult as an adult?
This is what happened to that Aella lady, right?
Yeah, and she wasn't the only one.
Some never got out and just sort of carried all of the "math pet"
and other creepy techbro indoctrination with them ever afterward.
She's the kind of a person who willingly yiffed Elon Musk so what did you expect
Grimes believes that Cyberpunk 2077 is a documentary and the events took place in real time
You joke, but she might be bazinga enough to see it as a projection of the imminent future because of the simulation having a time skip because the basilisk was feeling sassy that day
the basilisk was feeling sassy that day
The Sassilisk. :kelly:
Well the original game was Cyberpunk 2020, yet here we are in 2024 but the only thing we got from there is pollution and corpos with death squads. No AV's, no cyborgisation, no holograms, no Soviet Union going strong.
AVs sort of exist. There are a lot of quadcopter vehicles they're testing out, but they all have problems to some degree or other.
Holograms are rapidly getting better too.
I remember seeing a take that she's a super brilliant intelligence asset (studied biomed at a fed recruiting uni in calgary or sth). Then I see this.
