Getting all my Surrealist mates to play Exquisite Corpse... we unfold the paper and it's just a completely realistic super hot naked woman
Four artists made this drawing in the Surrealist game called “The Exquisite Corpse.” Yves Tanguy began this sketch at the top. He then folded the paper and handed it to Joan Miró, who could see only the lines where Tanguy had ended. Max Morise and Man Ray completed the drawing.

Main reason socialism doesn't work is you need price mechanisms to co-ordinate industrial activity at scale. Would be interesting to see a left that bites this bullet and says "yes, no organisation larger than X can be allowed to exist"
re: roblox dude's interview crashout. the thing he wants to say but can't is "at scale, kids are gonna get hurt. that is the price for scale." the thing nobody wants to say out loud is "maybe scaling to a level where harm isn't manageable is bad, and scale should be contained"
