- Comment on The best answer to "when did Star Trek get woke?" 13 hours ago:
In that case the issue is hamfisted storytelling, not progressive ideas. So calling it “woke” is pointing the wrong direction.

- Comment on Is it weird that I cringe whenever someone calls my name and I avoid using peoples names when talking to them? 5 weeks ago:
I use names when specificity is needed. E.g., if I’m in a room with two other people, and I want to address only one of them, I’ll use a name (or nickname if there is one) to clarify who I am addressing.
If I’m in a room with only one other person, then using a name to address them would be redundant, unless I am not getting their attention otherwise (e.g., they’re engrossed in a book).

Your esophagus will not be happy
- Comment on How do I drink more water? 1 month ago:
Cool (not cold), with no ice. Filtered.

Oh, you don’t want to? Why not?
There, you have your reason now.

- Comment on What the fuck is going on with Iran and what will happen next? 3 months ago:
They need to accept the rapture has already happened. All the good religious people have already ascended. This is why all of the religious people who are still here suck.

Imagine finding the perfect partner, getting married, moving in together etc.
Now that you’re married and that’s all settled, where do the two of you go for fun? Where do the two of you go to get out of the house?
Go there.

- Comment on Anon gets his life in order 7 months ago:
It’s totally a thing, at least in public perception. For example, in Fortnite, there’s an emote called “Have a seat.” Here’s two of my skins doing it: Have a seat.
Notice anything? Spike and Chun-Li do totally different animations because they have different gender presentations.
