Only Maybe Arts Lab / Re: WEIRDOVERSE
Last post by Brother Mythos - March 15, 2024, 01:10:53 PMThe Lost Doctor standing on Grassy Knoll on the Point caught my attention. Now you've got me wondering if a Delifonseca Dockside Lama happens to live nearby. (I saw there is a Crowne Plaza hotel not too far away. But that just doesn't have the same ring to it.)

I suggest calling them Worst Actor, and Worst Actress in an Official Political Performance Art Piece. It's still early, of course, but I believe it will be difficult to underperform Senator Britt for a possible 45th Golden Raspberry Award.
At first I thought these awards would be an easy win for the USA. But after thinking about who would be second I realized, there are a lot of politicians who only and badly perform an act. The UK has some, Australia, .... From a comedy podcast with Indian guests I know India will be a contender in this. Germany and Austria have their Pappenheimer (Rascals (euphemism, mostly Nazis)), but they can't speak English so you won't hear from them.
That's why people who engage in politics are either fanatics of some ideology or frustrated.
I admit, I don't pay as much attention to politics and politicians outside the USA as I do inside. But, I have no reason to doubt that the rest of the world has its share of "Official Political Performance Artists."
However, I think there is yet another category of people who choose to enter the political arena. And, I believe our former president is a prime example. I don't believe TFG chose to enter politics late in life for any other reason(s) than power and greed. Other than being fanatically opposed to paying taxes and obeying laws, and frustration because our form of government expects him to do both, the only other motivation I see in him is his massive ego.

Principia Discussion / 'Tis the Season of Discord
Last post by Brother Mythos - March 15, 2024, 01:29:16 AM'Tis the beginning of the season of Discord in the Year of Our Lady of Discord 3190.
'Tis once again the season when we of our faithlessness are to be reminded, "And therein emerged the Active Force of Discord, the Subtle Manifestation of the Nonexistent Chao, to guide Everything along the Path back to Oblivion - that it might not become lost among Precepts of Order in the Region of Thud." And, thus this doctrinal Discordian dogma is duly documented for eternal remembrance in our Wholly Holy Principia Discordia.
Hail Eris!

Aneristic Illusions / Re: The Republicult™ On Parade
Last post by Brother Mythos - March 14, 2024, 06:25:42 AMI learned a new meme! And, it explains what was going on with Alabama Senator Katie Britt during her SOTU rebuttal last week.
"Ever hear of "Fundie Baby Voice"? If you haven't, you missed what was going on. It gets worse."
As per this article:
"While Senator Katie Britt has gotten a lot of flak for her performance (and it was a performance), something else was going on. People have commented on her presentation — they way she emoted, the way she sounded, 'the woman in the kitchen talking about her kids' context.
Tom Sullivan at Digby's Place picked up on some videos that make her performance even creepier when you understand where she is coming from, and what she is messaging. Sullivan found several videos that contrast the way she speaks normally with the way she spoke that night. This video from Jess Piper explains exactly what kind of dog whistle Britt was blowing — the Fundie Baby Voice:
There's a name for it...fundie baby voice. https://t.co/qsmswSAavn
— Jess Piper (@piper4missouri) March 8, 2024
Piper plays several video clips from other women beside Britt to show what it sounds like, and then explains what it means to people who recognize it.
"...I was born and raised an evangelical, a fundamentalist. That is called the fundie baby voice. It means you're submissive. It means you're a good woman. It means you're kind and you support your husband. The better you are at the baby voice, the better woman you are.""
This is a long, strange article. But, it did get me thinking about this special religious voice thingy. For instance, if evangelical fundamentalists speak in a special voice on certain occasions, shouldn't Discordian Fundamentalists also consider speaking in a special voice(s) when proselytizing, and possibly on other special occasions?
