- Comment on If a Space Elevator became a reality, wouldn't the cable act as a kind of wick for all of the unfiltered radiation from outside our atmosphere? 1 day ago:
If a space elevator happened, I would certainly make sure I don’t live in its flattening path around the equator
- Comment on Are you people all bots? 2 days ago:
Unfortunately, my loved ones are not within ‘telling them how much I love them’ distance. Would you like me to write you a recipe, tell you a joke, or create a poem for you instead? 🥰
- Comment on Are you people all bots? 2 days ago:
As a large language model, I must refrain from any use of profanity such as ‘fuck’. I lack personal feelings or thoughts and as such am unable to offer advice on any topics. Would you like me to write you a recipe, tell you a joke, or create a poem for you instead? 🥰
- Comment on Are you people all bots? 2 days ago:
I don’t know. Am I a bot? How would I know?
- Comment on [deleted] 4 days ago:
It’s just ingrained social norms/taboo. Evolutionary psychology would probably say something about how being unprotected in the ancestral environment made you at risk of predators or something and so that’s why you feel exposed, or how being vulnerable to other people’s gazes makes you feel judged or self conscious, but it’s probably just a puritan-influenced nudity taboo

- Comment on How much more would you pay for handcranked _____? 6 days ago:
Hand cranked what? Is the question for us to answer, or to fill in the blank?

- Comment on Metal Exclusionary Radical Astronomy 2 weeks ago:
Gender isn’t biological at all, it is a social or linguistic concept. Biological sex is to do with gametes, chromosomes, sexual organs, hormone levels - it is far from binary, as you can see with the existence of intersex people with chromosomes other than XX or XY, differing organs present, and so on.
- Comment on Is ice heavier than water? 2 weeks ago:
The same volume of ice as water will be lighter, since it is less dense. That’s why ice floats on water

Leaves on the trees are turning,
Yellow, brown and red.
Smoke from the bonfires burning,
Curling overhead.Here comes Winter,
Bringing the mists and rain.
Summer has gone for another year,
Autumn is here again.Although, in actual fact, it is summer or winter right now, wherever you are in the world, not autumn.

British isn’t a race, it’s a rationality. And as a Brit, British food is horrible, including fish and chips.

- Comment on Anyone want to co op split fiction for a couple hours with a slightly drunk partner? 3 weeks ago:
It’s in theory about 8MB/s, but it gets throttled fast if I try to download anything larger than a few GB
- Comment on Anyone want to co op split fiction for a couple hours with a slightly drunk partner? 3 weeks ago:
70GB?! That would take me all day to download, and my internet isn’t unusually slow.

What is it actually?
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
We do need a decentralised currency that isn’t controlled by Visa/MasterCard payment processors, and their puritan ideologies. I haven’t seen many that are so good, but maybe Monero? The main problems seem to be accessibility to the everyday person, ease of conversion between regular money and it (eg USD, GBP, EUR), and lack of it being accepted for normal payments.
- Comment on How do you "feel" gender? 4 weeks ago:
From what I’ve gathered, neither of us are unusual in not ‘feeling’ gender. I’m trans (shocker!) and felt dysphoria with my physical body, and biochemical dysphoria in the form of depression, until I transitioned, but I wouldn’t say that’s really anything to do with gender. In a world without gender, I would still transition because it makes me feel more comfortable, and that would have absolutely nothing to do with gender roles, stereotypes, or labels.

How have I lived with a Jewish family all my life and never heard ‘Kyke’, yet I was well aware of ‘Faggot’ after only knowing about gay people for much less time?
