    Shoes?

    just copped these for 39 bucks off amazon gonna give them a go I always go with Adidas for some reason...never got a feel for nike Adidas x reigning champ alphabounce
  3. anything by the writer, taylor sheridan Sicario Sicario 2 Hell or High Water Wind River 12strong
  4. Season 3 will be amaaaazing I was hoping it would be set in New York since there are a lot of secret fraternities and occult legends in the city
  5. I saw two within a week and a half sicario 2 the incredibles 2
  6. fleece just gets hot, even in the winter....under a gortex shell, for me, it gets uncomfortable French terry stays cool in my opinion, and I can keep my jacket on even indoors fleece also pills a lot and flattens out in the wash
  7. my mistake....I was going off their product list on their website if they do French terry , they might be cheaper than CYC
  8. all the supreme hoodies I saw don't have the CYC manufacturing tag from what ive been seeing you might be right, though, since roopa doesn't do French terry hoodies I wear the lightweight terry for the summer nights
  9. CYC was the manufacturer of supreme hoodies and pullovers til 2013 I believe supreme uses Roopa Knitting now...I myself am not a big fleece guy I still stick with CYC....I love my reigning champ shit French terry above everything
  10. I keep seeing these iPhone ads where you can unlock your phone with your face, add emojis using your face, and add your face as a "profile" for your phone when youre near another iPhone That's a little scary considering that phones can be lost, broken into, hacked, etc...and the government, with Sprint as proof, and they haven't exactly stopped the Patriot Act, they will look into your info. the new features on the iPhone should be taken in with a grain of salt...at my work, when we hand out government iPhones to VIP, we lock down everything...all the features that create a user "profile" is blocked at a registry level. And its not just settings that I lock down, we have a specific piece of software that we run on the phone that does the rest of the hardening for us. So i'd be weary of what these companies put out as "gimmicks" on their smart phones.
  11. The conspiracy theories are a glue that hold these fringe groups together...Social media fucking propogates that shit to an obscene amount. With the conspiracy theories, it gives reason for people to act paranoid, justify certain actions, and to, weirdly enough, make friends. But beliefs don't necessarily go hand in hand with actual facts. I'm glad you brought up the divide and rule school of thought...with groups marginalizing themselves, there's no cohesive collective of people to keep political forces from taking over. Splitting votes for fringe politicians, dividing already existing parties into smaller groups. It's weakening the republic.
  12. I totally agree...and for some reason it's only been happening now
  13. That's what's missing in discourse today, actually fucking research. I believe you understand this more than others, raven, that, when stupid people argue, it's really just because they're defending their idol. No real thought or research is put into the argument. There are entire groups who blindly follow and barf out what their idol says. They'll just repeat talking points that are easily debunked. And it's annoying as fuck that the only retaliation these people have is "fake news". Buzz words and a newspeak, basically a language they made up where they only talk in "talking points". Tribal fraternity shit, that's the only way they are able to communicate today. Lingua Tertii Imperii
  14. I'm gonna expand on that thought. Social media creates tribes. People with the same way of thinking, same school of thought, and from how they type, their own vernacular also. And this kind of environment creates an echo chamber. A group of people yelling out the same talking points, no real criticism, and no real valid points. This is dangerous because it breeds an extreme form of tribalism based on "us vs them" mentality, that would eventually turn to hate. 4chan is that way, facebook groups, and even some subreddits operate on that paradigm. 12oz can claim to be a tribe, but we don't reserve judgement and we call out the bullshit. We forgive and forget also. We're not a perfect platform but we don't go to extremes to defend a moot or useless point just to advance our own shit. The "dumb" people we hate on social media, some of them have a massive following. That's the scary part. The people who influence others.
  15. Im gonna try bringing back da kid mero
  16. @misteraven yo...i work IT for the department of defense....if you need help somewhere let me know
