Okay so, basically, the game EarthBound, yeah? The music in that game was written by a dude who was heavily influenced by the Beatles and other 60s/70s music. To the point where there is even sames from Beatles music used in EarthBound.
Ok so EarthBound, including its music in turn heavily inspired a bunch of Millennials including a fellow named Toby Fox whose work is heavily based on EarthBound to the point where Undertale and Deltarune use the soundfont and sound effects for a lot of things.
Which in turn inspired a ton of zoomers, and yeah you get the idea.
It's just a cool reminder of how we are all connected in the most cringe, nerd way I can think of. Everything we do touches other's lives, whether we realise it or not.
You can see this through the changing ebb and flow of beanis posts… It’s almost as if everyone’s beanis is touching everyone else’s
Plot twist: Dirt_Owl is Richard Dawkins posing as an owl.
Rather upsetting to find this out
They're referring more to the original Dawkins definition of meme as a social analogy of the gene, something along the lines of "minimal reproducible unit of social exchange"
I was doing a ”Chapo? Like the drug dealer?” style bit.
Although if there's one guy whose accomplishment being overshadowed by cats saying they can has cheezburger I don't mind, it's Dick Dorkins.
Sorry, irony through text is hard to read sometimes. But yeah, Dawkins falling off is probably my biggest disappointment in terms of someone falling off
I always wonder if a bit might be a little too obtuse.
Especially after some people might have actually gotten my reference to Machines of Loving Grace reference yesterday.
Now I’m trying to imagine what megalovania would sound like if the beatles covered it
This is why everyone should shit in the woods more often. Your poop will feed bugs and plants and they will grow and feed other things. If you only poop in the toilet your poop will just die and you will be forgotten. If you poop in the woods you will live forever through your poop and the ecosystem your poop feeds. (and if you eat lots of tomatoes you might even grow a tomato plant in the woods.)
and if you eat lots of tomatoes you might even grow a tomato plant in the woods.
And corn!
The Beatles got really famous for inventing popular music but if you really dig into it there's evidence that music has been around for at least 150 years and maybe even longer.
Initially I read this as someone thinking that the Beatles invented music and not just that type of music lmfao.
I thought it was a bit post: ”After doing some research, I found out that the Beatles didn't in fact invent music”.
I like to think our humanity will be ready to take the next step if we can ever acknowledge and harness the hive-mind, unity of mind, the crowdsource, whatever it is. Our best and clearest intellect is the social one. One mind, experience makes up for the lack in another's.
Imo our ability to communicate, network, share experiences thru osmosis whathaveyou is the primary reason we're successful as a species, not the power of our individual brains.
Video game companies keep inventing paid mod systems to disrupt these hive mind structures with grift culture so mod communities don't get too powerful 😒
And ironically I believe that by collectively empowering each other to be able to live to the best of their ability, we also have more individualality than our current "every man is an island" BS.
Toby Fox has a very edgy Earthbound romhack that sort of seems like a proto-Undertale.
Does that mean there was no point in being born? Would you say that of your slain comrades? What about their lives? Where they meaningless? THEY WERE NOT! Their memory serve as an example to us all. The courageous fallen, the anguished fallen - their lives have meaning because we, the living, refuse to forget them! So as we ride to certain death we trust our successors to do the same for us! Because my soldiers do not buckle or yield when faced with the cruelty of this world. My soldiers march forward. My soldiers scream out. My soldiers RAAGE!
