Whats everyones take on John Oliver? Recently he's had some good takes against landlords and all. His pieces are pretty good and I watch em sometimes

His writers room is aging millennials from college humor who make “like x if it y with x” jokes forced into every other line of what equates to a capstone 10 page paper riddled with neoliberal sensibilities with an ideological underpinning that harps only on impossible soft changes and “just vote”. It’s sometimes interesting as far as content if it’s a topic I know little about, but it’s the kind of smug Reddit tier “did you know that coffee beans came from little goofy goats that ate the beans and the shepherd said ‘golly Ms molly the Goat, you shake that rump you bad bitch!’ And then all of societal progress happened.”

He is basically a glorified video essayist.
Good propaganda, mostly weak comedy. I like him but he's not as funny as Stewart or Colbert at their peak (the Bush years). His comedic style doesn't do it for me. I only laugh very occasionally.

I just wanted to continue this post a bit, to explain part of why I'm promoting pro-wrestling.
As an aside, picrel is a Japanese wrestler named Veny. Veny is a trans woman and both quite popular and successful on the Japanese pro-wrestling scene at the moment.
Now, I think pro-wrestling has a lot to offer from a leftist perspective. Which sounds absurd, given that its original audience was redneck hicks, but hear me out.
Pro-wrestling is the antithesis of MMA in many ways. In MMA, you can be the meanest, most selfish fuck ever to step on the mat and, so long as you're stronger than everyone else, people just have to take it and accept you as a winner and sing your praises. At its core, it's a very right-wing sport. Winning is all that matters in the end.
Pro-wrestling, on the other hand, is a storytelling medium. In the past, it was full of men who looked out for themselves but the mentality has changed for the most part - those types gravitate towards MMA. Instead, pro-wrestlers largely understand that they are a team. While in MMA you are competing against your opponent, in pro-wrestling you are actually working together to put on a show where it *appears* you are in competition. Whether you win or lose personally is less important than whether the match you put on is entertaining and tells a good story. You're not doing it for yourself or your own self-aggrandizement, but rather for the sake of the fans who made an effort to come see you.
And it's the stories that matter. In my earlier example, in MMA the bad guy wins if he's stronger. In pro-wrestling, being the good guy matters. What everyone is waiting for is the good guy who will finally beat the bad guy and finally put him in his place like he deserves. There is a hopefulness about it, and hope is central to the human experience because without hope of victory there is rarely anything to drive people to make things better in the first place.
Interestingly enough, despite pro-wrestling having a reputation as being a right-wing form of entertainment (despite that not having any mooring in reality - studies have shown most pro-wrestling fans are left leaning - https://www.businessinsider.com/politics-sports-you-like-2013-3 - look at the bottom of the chart), many pro-wrestlers are actually left-wing, including here in the US.

Grovit, anyone?

Coach in the video was involved in a Japanese promotion called "Bushido " in the early 90's. Just about the realist fake wrestling ever, if that makes sense. I remember watching it on cable via a top box on my telly.
Carl Beijer has written a load of stuff about pro-wrestling. I'll look for a link and see if there's any that isn't paywalled.

90's Japanese pro-wrestling was where it was at, really. Hard hitting and not nearly as "fake" as it is now.
Of course, there was a lot of scumminess too.

No argument there.
He showed up for one last show earlier this year, right before the LA fires.
He was booed, hard. And he was booed because most pro-wrestling fans hate the guy for who he is because he reflects a view of the world many wrestling fans do not embrace.

I love that for him.

Now he's a very dead man

does eating relatively late in the day or compressing most of your meals into a relatively short time almost following each other make you gain weight?

>>46841
eating makes you gain weight

>>46841
you'll gain the same amount of weight whenever you eat, but you may get a slightly better effect on muscle vs fat gain if you eat right after training, and if you constrain your meals to a shorter window (intermittent fasting) you can help stimulate more fat burning.

>>46851
Isnt it opposite, you should spread put your meals over the course of day to maximalise musle growth?

I‘m training to fuck mid air. It‘s more difficult than I thought. At this time I‘m lifting a 60kg ball and hold it for around 2 minutes. My goal is to eventually reach 90kg for a couple of minutes to make the real application effortless. Anyone else doing this? Any tips?

I watched this, there was a scene where one of the characters says something like: "veektor perhaps youre zhe real monster" and I couldnt help but laugh. If you get past the fact that Del Toro holds his audience of sensitive little thespians in deep contempt, it's a fine parody of Del Toro films.

so… was it real, or was it a dream?

If it is done by a bourgeois estudio: bourgeois show. Examples: disney, marvel, sony, madmax
If it is done by a smaller studio: petit bourgeois show.
Examples: TADC, Ghibli, Dead Cells (coops are bourgeois), hazbin hotel
If it is done by a nationalized company in a socialist state: proletarian show. Example: squirrel and hedgedog,

Me personally I fucking HATE Jax. TOTAL GANGLE LOVE! TOTAL RAGATHA LOVE!!!! Jax is an ASSHOLE and I bet he STINKS!!!

Also it reminds me of Berserk somewhat: people stuck in a shit situation and the only thing that can truly help is togetherness.

>>46864

I see. What makes it degen though?
I assume you generally have a negative preception towards shows or any mean of media that fits your definition of bourgeois?

Anyone else notice how shit the quality of store bought clothes are now (at least in the uk)? Like i used to buy tshirts and collared shirts from places like m&s and next but after a few wash cycles they go to shit (for collared shirts the fabric goes loose and starts leaving hug gaps around the neckline and tshirt collars become crumpled and warped).

Feels like you have to shell out shitloads of money just to get anything that'll last more than 6 months

these jean paul gaultier shirts look like how a twitter fanartist draws top surgery scars

Ok, so does anybody know where i can get this jacket? There is a site called "glitch cupids" that has it on there but it has been out of stock for years and doesn't seem to be restocking anytime soon - so anybody know any underground places i might find it?

>>46821
should add it's the OSCill X Feiyue Labourer jacket

some brake pads are a pain in the ass to change, others less so. look and see if there is a forum dedicated to your brand of car, and also videos as the other anon suggest
I have a Citroën, so everything runs on the one hydraulic system, which is self-de-airing. I'm also friends with a Citroën nerd which comes in handy. I let him keep his cars on my yard in exchange for him helping me every now and then
I managed to diagnose some ABS problems this year, which turned out to be electrical. fixed some wiring and installed a bypass switch for connecting the ABS light to the airbag light so that the car would pass inspect while I wait for parts
do try to find as much documentation on your car as possible. for mine I got several GB of documents from my buddy, which includes
>workshop manual
>full electrical schematics in French >_<
>Haynes manual
>a bajillion archived websites with information
$1500 sounds excessive for the work involved in just fixing the brakes. I paid $900 to have the wheel bearings changed on my car and that's a way bigger job

>forgetting to loose deez nuts before jacking up the car
classic

Update: I changed the pads and brake fluid and went for a test drive and everything seems to be in order. It was a lot of fucking work and I cut myself several times but it only cost me about $80. I don't have an impact driver nor sockets that fit the lugnuts so I had to use the horrible miniature tire iron that comes with the car to take all the wheels off and put them back on. The most annoying part was pushing the pistons back into the calipers because I don't have C-clamps so I had to use crappy squeeze clamps which really sucked. I also forgot to loosen the lugnuts before jacking up the car and had to try again. I think I've forgotten to do that every single time I've ever jacked up a car.

hoping to pay my dad a visit soon so I can borrow his garage and change the ABS sensor on my car

I miss being able to steal tools from my dad.
