this heat is from 1932!
It is impossible to understand the American public without taking into account the tremendous psychological effect of bringing up a generation of people in a daily environment of advertising. It is impossible to escape the advertising man; his sales talk assaults us in the morning newspaper, in the street car, with billboards along the highways, and in his shameless use of the radio. This means that from morning till night, in the midst of our work as in our recreation, we live constantly in an atmosphere of intellectual shoddiness. Every popular prejudice and vulgar conceit is played upon and pandered to in the interests of salesmanship. Everywhere material interests and herd opinion are strengthened to the loss of personal independence. The tendency is to think and speak for effect rather than out of one's inner life. There is a marked decline the ability to play with ideas, or to live the spiritual life for its own sake. Hence a decline in civilization of interest, humor and urbanity. Advertising tends to make mechanized barbarians of us all. Everett Dean Martin, The Conflict of the Individual and the Mass in the Modern World (1932), pp. 29-30

Of course, once I’m done with this one it’s back into the Dungeon I go, full speed ahead. I’m itching to get into Book 4! #princesspose #dungeoncrawlercarl #donutholes

I would love to show this tweet to someone in the 90s and tell them that this is what the 21st century will be like
Miss Gender @girldrawsghosts everything is getting worse because the richest man alive, who was raised by an apartheid emerald baron that married his own stepdaughter, is chasing nazi brand loyalty by giving them a chatbot that undresses children, so that he can keep selling cars that drive into traffic
