There’s nothing very special about him, apart from his looks. I’d argue he peaked in “My so-called life.”

Has this also been translated by an AI, or am I missing the point?
From the depths of history, Vasily Grossman once again:
One of the most astonishing human traits that came to light at this time was obedience. There were cases of huge queues being formed by people awaiting execution – and it was the victims themselves who regulated the movement of these queues. […] And it wasn’t merely tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands, but hundreds of millions of people who were the obedient witnesses of this slaughter of the innocent. Nor were they merely obedient witnesses: when ordered to, they gave their support to this slaughter, voting in favor of it amid a hubbub of voices. […] What does this tell us? That a new trait has suddenly appeared in human nature? No, this obedience bears witness to a new force acting on human beings. The extreme violence of totalitarian social systems proved able to paralyze the human spirit throughout whole continents. A man who has placed his soul in the service of Fascism declares an evil and dangerous slavery to be the only true good. Rather than overtly renouncing human feelings, he declares the crimes committed by Fascism to be the highest form of humanitarianism; he agrees to divide people up into the pure and worthy and the impure and unworthy. The instinct for self-preservation is supported by the hypnotic power of world ideologies. These call people to carry out any sacrifice, to accept any means, in order to achieve the highest of ends: the future greatness of the motherland, world progress, the future happiness of mankind, of a nation, of a class. […] The violence of a totalitarian State is so great as to be no longer a means to an end; it becomes an object of mystical worship and adoration. […] Another fact that allowed Fascism to gain power over men was their blindness. A man cannot believe that he is about to be destroyed. The optimism of people standing on the edge of the grave is astounding.
Amazing book, btw. Like one long fever dream.

Pick up the receiver, I’ll make you a believer.
My dentist sez flossing is on it’s way out, everybody should start using these really small interdental toothbrushes anyway.
True, I just finished playing one of them.
I know talk boxes have gone out of style, but that’s as close as you’ll ever get.
That’s horrible. Don’t taint my memory of a movie I loved with Muskolini’s likeness.
Yeah baby yeah.

Nice animation, but their burgers, at least around here, are atrocious. Really the worst of the worst.
