on the cross.
A friend of mine worked with mental patients for awhile and he told me one day during political season he walked into a room while a group of patients were cracking up laughing at politicians debating on television. I's fair enough to say none of the patients understood much about the issues being discussed but when asked what was so funny to them they all found the outright lies absurd, the way nothing matched was tremendously funny to them. Surely these people were comedians.
I notice a similar thing with this latest television and the way it pauses on frame to change channels. Whenever a man is speaking and the frame freezes his face in speech, wherever the frame freezes and with 100% regularity the visage is frozen in a ridiculous lie. It just is. The women far less so. They lie so beautifully. But when female political pundits are pulling it out of their butts as men do with everything, any sales, and all male television discussions are some form of sales, then the women are bad as the men always are. The very weird freeze-frame ridiculous lie-face thing that is revealed with each channel change makes me feel like a mental patient watching t.v. perceiving nothing but straight up continuous stream of lies.
This is different though, some sort of brain data moshing where the shape of the next face is distorted by predictions from the previous face, and all those are distorted unnaturally with surgery. Lies. You notice it takes a moment to get going. Whereas the channel change freeze-frame lie detector captures real facial expressions delivered in stream. I'm going to miss that with the next television.
