yoo this radio reminds me of some drum radio video on delezue

I used to listen to a lot of NPR, especially Car Talk (back when it still had new episodes), and RadioLab. NPR is good radio most of the time. Right now, I don't really listen to radio, but I did check out The Iron Dice on Spotify, which is a good little podcast about Germany.

>A little too white hat.
*small hat

War Nerd
Useful Idiots
Blowback
Russians With Attitude
Unauthorized Disclosure

Some of those are already listed, lots of good suggestions ITT

I'd also like to point out/bitch that I finally deleted Lex Fridman's feed. Having Netanyahu, Zucc, and Kushner on rapid fire was too much to ignore

He's a lib but not an idiot. Rare example

I really like this podcast from Cybershell and Bernie about miscellania. It's not about politics but when the topic does come up they often have alright positions. It doesn't have a release schedule though.

Does anyone have any experience with meditation or mindfulness?
Ive been seeing it again and again and it *supposedly, i havent checked myself** studies show it can help you focus better and reduce overstimulation from the outside world.
As someone who has struggled my entire life being overstimulated by everything, and who has felt my anxiety increase and my ability to focus drop over the past few years, I wonder if i should try meditating. Leaving aside all of the spiritual aspects, and leaving aside all of the stemlord objections, are there tangible benefits? Did anyone try?
How do i properly do it? For how long?
Thank you.

Did a meditation waiting at the bank. The bank has a turn system, so I opened my eyes each time a turn was called, then closed them immediately, until it was my turn. It wasn't even that long but the effect was more profound than my morning meditations. I felt calm, content, joyful. There were some rich ladies complaining about the customer service at the bank. I couldn't help but laugh. It was so amusing.

Could also be the psoas. The back is a bitch. If anon can't sit in a chair for even a minute, then they really need to put in effort to work on that ASAP.

Fuck the Telltale game, I want someone to finish this shit. What series finale ends on a fucking cliffhanger.

Also why the fuck didn't they recast Alex and instead edited in a weird death scene

>>21798
TV Miller wasn't bad but in the books he's much more connected to the main crew and the adaptation falls flat in that regard. Like when Holden assumes he's going to join the crew and Miller is so surprised by this he has to hide his tears from the sudden acceptance. You also miss out on all his internal monologues, but that comes with the medium.

this comment from 6 months ago was comically accurate. capital has decided to switch common sense from liberal to chvd. even if the average person isn't like that, they still feel like the mainstream is average to bad, and non-whites feel out of place in normal movies

This whole movie seemed like fear porn to motivate the ruling classes to hate the citizenry. The way that any group of common people was portrayed was horrific.



 

there should be a Heat-like movie about the 1907 Tiflis Bank Robbery that Stalin/Lenin and other Bolsheviks organized, which was carried out for the purpose of securing funds for the RSDLP.

Maybe anon just means like a character study with a focus on careful choreography.

>>38283
Also, a killer soundtrack.

>>35823
why the FUCK can't my hair look like Stalin's

>>38282
>How would it be Heat-like?
aesthetically and with a similar attention to detail and realism. There's so much scope to explore the political context and interpersonal dynamics leading up to the raid too. It writes itself ffs, I can picture the steam train sequence now lol.
>The themes of Heat don't have a lot in common with political revolutionaries trying to get their hands on some cash.
100%

>>38282
>How would it be Heat-like?
Cinematography, pacing, tension, soundtrack.
>The themes of Heat don't have a lot in common with political revolutionaries trying to get their hands on some cash.
This theme is what would make it unique, even if the aesthetics are more derivative.

I haven't played Tabletop RPGs in a hot minute, and I need my fix. I had an idea for a VTM chronicle that emphasizes the "Political Horror" aspect of the gameline. Given this is, ostensibly, a political board I figured it'd be fun to introduce folks here to the World of Darkness and see how they handle it.

I'll be running V5, mostly because that's the version I'm most familiar with. I'll try to find PDF copies of the rulebook to folks unfamiliar with the setting and tutor new players where necessary. I'm making this thread mostly to get a poll of people who are interested and see if I can't work out a time to play. It'll probably take place online. Microphones are necessary.

If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask. I'll probably post the teaser to the chronicle tomorrow.

Matrix is the protocol and Element is the worst client. What features are they missing that are vital to play VtM with other imageboard posters?

Sent you a request, I don’t know if it was denied or something.

Maybe after Vampires we can roleplay as communists.

I understand people's concerns with fbi.gov, but it's really convenient for me. I apologize if that's a deal breaker.

I recently got into AI generated images. Mostly for porn obviously. Anyways, I thought as a means of honing the craft and amusement why not make a thread about it. People can make a suggestion and as a form of training people try to make the best images that lives up to the suggestion. We can also talk about the technology itself and how to use it and what not.

Actually, here are some resources

>>38215
Image generating technologies aren't actually artificial intelligence, because they use mathematical functions or some shit

>>38217
We know none of this shit is actually AI. It simply has become integrated into colloquial language to call it that way.

>>38215
>>>/draw/3405 will hopefully be helpful to you. I've posted some LORA and effortposts in that thread.

The most important thing for Stable Diffusion is Regional prompting, otherwise the AI will not produce a proper image and have fucked up details all over.

>>38226
Oh I didn‘t see that thread.

Mods can close this thread or merge it with the other.
