If you like that character just go watch some Nina Hagen music videos instead.
She was the inspiration for the character, she's the original punk opera prodigy, she's crazy and she was once a strong contender to be the german voice of marge simpson.
Smack Jack, So Bad, Naturträne, Imma Lauter are all tracks I still listen to a lot. Her recent cover of 16 Tons is great too.
the meaning, the dream-manifestation, is more important to them than the actual experience.
I'm going to be thinking over that for a while.
Back home I used to go to the annual exhibition of the top high school art students. The explanations were often long-winded, pretentious, not always super coherent. Fair enough I was too in high school. But there was one I loved. It was a very industrial looking metal sculpture of fish skeleton made of rusty engine parts, all teeth and gears. Maybe 3'x3'. The explanation was: "A fish. A big fish. A big scary fish with a motor!"
I friend of mine pointed out that SR4 could have easily been the best Matrix game ever. The physics and mechanics were all there, only the tone and plot were different.
I've heard archaeologists suggest that in far future times this will be known as the chicken age, because of the volume and likely preservation of chicken bones.
Antisemitism is understood to mean prejudice against Jews.
Semitic languages is the formal name for the branch of the Afroasiatic language family that includes modern Hebrew, Arabic, Amharic and ancient languages like Akkadian and Phoenician.
Semitic people isn't a term that anyone uses for real, but if they did it would refer to peoples who have traditionally spoke semitic languages.
It's frustrating that the term antisemitism refers to prejudice against only a specific subset of the peoples who would fall under the semitic label. But deliberately misunderstanding the term antisemitism is also quite frustrating.
Heaps of other animals learn from the experiences of others.
Orcas have culture, crows in europe taught each other how to peck out just the liver of frogs and make them explode, capuchin monkeys make stone tools, even plants release volatile organic compounds to warn each other of attackers and disease.
I can't recall for certain but I'm pretty sure at least one of the far northern american languages has it. Like something from Eskaleut or Athabaskan. A quick scroll through their wikipedia pages didn't help, and I can't remember the formal name for this feature. If anyone else can chime in, that would be appreciated!
Yeah sure, if you have literally nothing else to do your entire life except grind barley, einkorn or millet. It's not that hard to just remember where the seasonal resource spawn points are, work out a decent annual loop, then do something else with a full belly and the remaining 20 hours of your day. git gud scrubz
Some languages make a grammatical distinction between them, like there's a different affix or a different form of the verb or noun if it came from personal experience, a trusted source, a distant source, inference etc.
Most cultural institutions exist in imaginary space but have incredible power over people. The state, god, heirarchy, status, identity. I definitely think the unreal is way more present in our lives than people normally accept.
Leonard Leo and the Federalist Society are such a dire threat to Americans. They'd happily burn the entire country to the ground as long as they're left to baptize the ashes.
Have you read the zhuangzi? "How can I tell if I'm zhuangzi dreaming he's a butterfly or a butterfly dreaming he's zhuangzi?" is probably the most famous line from that text.
Personally, I think the story is encouraging the joy of not knowing, becoming comfortable in a world that lacks fundamental certainties even about yourself and reality.
If this question interests you, you might enjoy the full text - it's public domain and there are plenty of recordings on youtube.
I wouldn't say the players are misunderstanding it
No, neither would I.
The people who are deliberately misunderstanding the term antisemitism are those who pretend they don't know that it means hatred towards jews by quibbling about the 'semite' part of the word. That whole comment was just about definitions of relevant terms, per the comment it was a reply to.
The israeli players are maliciously mischaracterising support for the palestinian cause as antisemitism. As a jew who frequently does not support the actions of the state of israel, this is a phenomenon I'm personally acquainted with and have quite strong feelings about.
If an official representative of the team slags off the other side without reason before the game, and says the entire team thinks this, with no apology or attempt to clarify that that person was wrong and only speaking for themselves, that's shitty behavior from the entire team.
