- Comment on I didn't realize masala, was spicy 1 day ago:
Its the kind of bird on the label. I think it shows you the level of spiciness, with the cock being the most spicy one. But searching for those terms might show some masochist applying it to his cock, so yeah, just search for sriracha sauce and you will find it.
- Comment on Why are Pokemon Showdown Moderators SO against the discussion of "Eating Pokemon"? 2 days ago:
You directly said, and I quote
Eating them shouldn’t be so taboo when considering that little tidbit.
Sorry that I take your words as what they mean literally instead of trying to make them mean what I think they should mean.
- Comment on Why are Pokemon Showdown Moderators SO against the discussion of "Eating Pokemon"? 2 days ago:
“Talk about” are two very important words that were missing from your original comment. Like the difference a comma makes between “Let’s eat grandpa” and “Let’s eat, Grandpa”.
- Comment on Why are Pokemon Showdown Moderators SO against the discussion of "Eating Pokemon"? 2 days ago:
No I’m talking about you saying that it should be not taboo to eat what you fuck.
Normal people very much differentiate between what they eat and what they fuck.

- Comment on When and why did online surveys remove the back button?! 4 days ago:
Because they are silly and sometimes/often program it in such a way, that using the back button resets everything and brings you back to the starting page.
- Comment on When and why did online surveys remove the back button?! 4 days ago:
Well, this second one was from GOG, where they asked my opinion of them. So I took that chance to tell them again that I do not appreciate them sharing Nazi dog whistles.
- Comment on When and why did online surveys remove the back button?! 4 days ago:
Yeah, would explain why one question was about selecting FALSE statements. Seems they finally realized some people don’t care about the answers.
But still, auto forwarding AND removing the back button? I’m not so sure that improves the results overall, but what do I know.

That’s not true at all. The aegian sea is something like 215,000 km2 (83,000 sq mi for you football field lovers out there).
And don’t underestimate “the technology of the time”.
We nowadays have evidence of wide trade networks all over Europe and northern Africa during the bronze age. In Spain there is evidence of tin being used that was mined in northern Europe. People very much used water ways for trade and exchange, which is one of the reason why most old big cities are next to water ways.

Do you think it’s a good idea to combine those people in one location to concentrate resources on how to help them or do you think its a bad idea due to them exchanging information on how to be more effective?
- Comment on Is a black hole spherical? How come it looks different each way you view it like on it's side or up and down? 2 weeks ago:
True, thanks for the addition! I forgot to mention that.
- Comment on Is a black hole spherical? How come it looks different each way you view it like on it's side or up and down? 2 weeks ago:
As far as I understood it, yes, a black hole, or rather the event horizon around it, is perfectly round. The problem you describe is that you can’t see the black hole, as that is the whole point of why they are called black. What you can see though, is the light behind the home that gets blocked.
That gets an additional problem, since the gravity of the hole bends space time around it and you cana indeed see the part that is behind it, albeit distorted around the event horizon. What you describe as changing view from up or down is indeed just the different view behind the hole, not the hole itself.
- Comment on How do other countries view American super hero movie's always putting the threat in new york or whatever? Instead of their own country and have their own superheroes? 2 weeks ago:
Honestly, it helps with the suspension of disbelief. Some local author tried to tell urban fantasy stories in my home town… Its just too silly for me to read about a werewolf/vampire/alien fighting on the street I cross to get to the supermarket.
And of course it is absolutely masturbatoric, same as Japan and aliens invading Tokyo.
- Comment on "Censorship" ☠️ 2 weeks ago:
I agree with you, as long as no real child is involved, nobody got hurt, so I don’t care. And I also think having a fictional pressure release is preferable to a real one.
But that is not really the topic here. This is about the term lolicon and how a lot of pedophiles hide behind that term. In my opinion the translation in the picture is correct. That has nothing to do with censorship, as the tweet tries to portray it as.

- Comment on The deeper argument for cultural diversity | Jonathan Sriranganathan 3 weeks ago:
While I fully agree with what is said in this text, I do not think it will convince a single right wing person racist.
Having multiple perspectives is a bad thing for them! They do not want another way of looking at things. There is their way, the right way (according to them), and then there is the rest, which is WRONG. To quote Warhammer 40k: “Blessed is the mind too small to doubt.” They do not want to debate and weigh positions, they want one order and that’s it.
You need to first show them that this way is leading into the abyss, every time, with proven examples (and good luck getting them to agree with any sources that portray their failures as inherent failures of their small mindedness instead of some conspiracy of the archnemesis). And then afterwards you can show with examples where we have learned from outsiders perspectives and improved our lives.

- Comment on Neverness to Everness has patched out a character’s shorts in favor of panties following complaints 3 weeks ago:
It’s worth mentioning that the Shinku patch was released just 12 hours after Version 1.2 went live on July 2, which is a rather quick response by the devs at Perfect World to “un-nerf” their newest character.
12 hours for the patch to be released, players playing it, complaining about it online, the devs reading it, deciding to act on the complains, change the model and release the new patch?
That sounds a bit too quick to me and more like they already had the model ready. For whatever reason.
- Comment on What are your thoughts on people who say hate speech is free speech? 3 weeks ago:
Didn’t watch the nearly half hour video, so just answering your question.
Free speech is free,if you limit it, its not free speech anymore, I will not argue against that. If you are for free speech, then government shouldn’t interfere and hate speech is part of that.
And honestly the way especially the UK but also other western countries are handling criticism against Israels actions under the umbrella of hate crimes is exactly what free speech proponents warned about. Hard to argue against that after the current events.
But I am not a free speech proponent, exactly because I think there should be limits to what is allowed to be said regarding lies and AlTeRnAtIvE fAcTs.
Hate speech is something that is regrettable, but nowadays I think it should be socially shamed and judged, not by the government (except if they are government workers). So moderators of social media are free to ban it in their rooms, but not enforced by the government.

OK, after checking the YouTube comments, I will just leave this exchange of comments here and let you decide for yourself if that sounds like a person you would like to hear more of:
Comment by inchristalone2026
I’m a master at mitigating the effects of inflation so I can continue saving. I mention $5 for greens at the store, I don’t buy it. I go to the store each day when doing errands to get the expiring stuff discounted. And my food costs are low due to this. But you can only mitigate so far - I would make the most miserly person dizzy with my frugality. But it’s poverty, inflation impoverishes us all and diminishes our standard of living. I am at the bottom, I am the poorest of the working poor and receive no money from the state. I don’t have insurance, a family, etc. How do you think inflation effects the working poor? You can mitigate but something will eventually break.
Answer by econ lessons:
You are doing well, in your life. You may see yourself as poor but many people with large income are highly in debt. Do not look at absolute numbers but look at your debt to income. I bet you do not have debt. I bet your income is greater than your expenses. To me your a winner. The only think you have to increase is the income and you will leave the big spenders in the dust because of your frugality and self control. Something they might never have. Income, maybe Youtube 3 times a week on positive up beat entertaining topics and if you make 100k and spend 20k a year and invest in an ETF equity fund, you will be a multimillionaire in less than a decade with some luck
Original comment of mine: Interesting, and the summary I agree with, but I certainly do not agree with the inbetween points he raised.
People can always rationally react to inflation and mitigate the effects by substitution
That is such a “rich person explaining why the poor’s are too stupid” moment. Nice that he has a metric ton of potato in his garage. What are those people meant to do, that don’t have a garage but rent an apartment? And I’m not even talking about the liquidity needed to buy that amount of food as storage in the first place. And not knowing that industrially processed food is often the cheapest available is also prime “what can a banana cost” material.
And also what kind of bullshit economist is he, that he thinks energy prices aren’t effecting farmers who then sell their products at higher prices?? Short of complete subsistence farming your own food, you will always be affected by increase of energy prices, as everyone needs that for their work.
And at a certain point you cannot substitute stuff away. If cake is too expensive, sure you can get bread. If bread is too expensive you can get the cheap bread which isn’t as healthy to you. But at a certain point you cannot substitute more, because you already exist at the minimum.
And interesting to hear that he thinks a little bit of deflation is good. That is certainly counter to all economist thoughts I have heard (admittedly that doesnt mean much, as I didn’t study it). Deflation means you can buy more tomorrow if you don’t buy today. So why should people buy anything and invest their money if its worth more if they wait. He explains the reasoning why inflation is wanted by the governments in the summary, so I’m surprised he doesnt see the benefits.
- Comment on Teachers in England get two-year 6.6% pay rise but schools to foot part of bill 3 weeks ago:
Am I missing something or does the UK has a different system from other countries where schools get some additional money from some other sources besides the state?
If not, where else is the money supposed to come from? Spending cuts are directly going to decrease the students ability to learn.

Thanks for the linked publication. I had the same assumption, not due to in person experience but from what I saw in the online spheres. That felt like 90 % MTF. And I’ve seen multiple online comics in that direction but not the other way around. That’s where my assumption came from.
