Most of the disinformation around "we need inflation" and "deflation is bad" can be understood with one simple pair of facts: - deflation is bad for debtors & good for savers - debts represent net destruction of resources, savings represent net creation So which do you want to reward, destroying or creating resources?

Never be afraid of loving a story that’s pure fucking awesome. The reason kids movies so often are that engrossing, is because they can’t get away with useless fluff or “artsy-ness.” It means that it’s entirely about the story or it will lose its audience. But that’s all a film ought to be anyway. As someone who has watched more films than likely most people, went to film school, seen hundreds of super “out there” film work, and has made a few myself — after all of that I’ve come full circle to “kids films are the truest expression of the art of telling story on film.” How to Train Your Dragon is an incredible story. I’m a huge fan of The Last Airbender too. View quoted note →

What’s a cool account I should be following? Or one with fire memes?

Almost 20 years ago and nothing has changed and everything this man said has been proven true over and over again. “We bomb them endlessly and then wonder why they are mad at us.” It’s funny, I’ve had a few friends and family members who are legitimately concerned now that we could be in danger. That “what if we get bombed?” And all I can think is that entire generations in the Middle East have grown up with this fear as a permanent part of their lives. They never knew a time, in a dozen countries, in which they didn’t have to wonder “what if we get bombed?” What do you think that does to a culture? What do you think that does to their view of the west and Israel? After 50 years how could you *not* think that the US deserved to be destroyed? What else do they even know? None of this is confusing. These are the stupidly obvious and self evident results of the bullshit our govts have been engaged in.
