How is Steve Rogers like the biggest rebel and the baddest bitch who fucks the system continuously but also the most righteous and honourable man who ever lived hOW
Maybe we’ve been tricked into believing that righteous and honorable means following the rules, when it really means following a moral compass for the betterment of others regardless of the rules. And Steve Rogers exemplifies that.
Amen to that
Steve Rogers is proof that Lawful Good isn’t the best or only Good.
When I was a kid, American media was all about heroic rebellion.
After September 2001 the stories turned right around into authoritarianism and war crime apologism.
This has been an observation from a 36 year old Englishman.
Seconded by a thirty-one-year-old Canadian; American culture took a dramatic swerve after 9/11 and I don’t think it’s fully recovered.
my attention span is so bad i cant watch something without being on my phone at the same time i always have to have 2 layers of activity when did this happen why is capitalism stealing my soul away the spectacle has me firmly in its grip
Psychology time!
This isn’t having a short attention span (or well maybe thats part of it), but probably something called “Optimal Arousal.”(This is psychology, not anatomy, please keep your mind out of the gutter Xp)
Optimal Arousal goes like this: When effort is low, more stimulus is better. When effort is high, less stimulus is better.
I’ll elaborate. Whenever you do something easy (like maybe some homework as an example), unless something else is happening (like music or a show) you tend to get drawn away or doze off. In this homework scenario, the effort is low, so in order to keep at it and do well on working on it, you need a higher amount of stimulus, like a movie.
If something is hard, like for instance a test, you probably will try to avoid noise, going so far as to hush others so you can concentrate. The effort is high so you want less stimulus.
Keep this in mind. It can help you focus, and make life a lot easier. Dont feel bad for doing lots of different things while you are just chillin. Enjoy the knowledge!
This is also the reason that when people get lost or are trying to find an unfamiliar destination, they turn their car stereo down.
Whoa wait turning down the music so you can “see better” is a real thing and not just something to poke fun at?
moral of the story is…..being racist and bitter makes you age like milk
Roald Dahl explaining how it is that with each passing year Katie Hopkins looks more and more like someone who lurks in a sewer trying to lure children to their deaths with the promise of baloons
