i'm more of a "fin-switch" myself

ah i remember it like it was yesterday (not at all)

it was first added in this revision

someone removed it saying "No reliable secondary source describing these as gesamtkunstwerken or noting why these are relevant to the history of the form"

and then another person called "paintspot" added it back, saying "Found sources establishing all three deleted examples as G.werks"

it was removed because "Brian took inspiration, but his work does not meet definition"

and finally paintspot added it back, saying "Added back well-sourced section - but made it clear that these are works that use G.werk as inspiration."

its beautiful to see this silly bureaucratic back and forth set in stone for all to see on the edit history page

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gesamtkunstwerk#Other_applications

Performer, video producer, and "bureaucratic wunderkind"[40] Brian David Gilbert of the video game website Polygon cited Gesamtkunstwerk as an inspiration in foundational technique in his rendition of the PokéRAP.[41][42]

I am more powerful than boris johnson. I am an asthmatic, he is a healthy man in his 50s. I beat corona virus after a week, he has had to be taken to the ICU after 11 days and stayed in there for 3 days. this proves I am more powerful than the British government and can topple them

I have no idea how I would explain Tim Allen

Talk to those people! Offer them hope! Talk shit about capitalism with them!

If the Bernie crowd still want to be in the fight, and I'm betting most of 'em do, now is the time to get them involved in local organizing efforts

Don't get mad at people who invested a lot in the Bernie campaign. Don't "I told you so", don't insinuate they were stupid for believing in bourgeois electoralism. Try to be kind.

A lot of people are realizing right about now that the US is a country where wanting something as reasonable as free healthcare means you're banned from national politics for not being right wing enough. That stings a lot, and some people will need some encouragement in order to not fall into hopelessness and despair.
