  Intelligence is not something that can be quantified in any way whatsoever, and I would consider any IQ test to be fully arbitrary—so the answer is yes. I’m sure there’s some problem solving component.

  If you ever want evidence of IQ being bullshit, I have a super genius IQ. It’s like 666 standard deviations above the mean. Talk to anyone who has ever talked to me and they will very quickly disagree! 😂

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I Quit⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  What? No, I was making a point about arbitrary measures of intelligence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And I won't delete them either for nostalgia reasons⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I can never find it because I don’t know what to search for! If I ever find it again, I’ll download it to my PC and try to remember to send it to you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I Quit⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep. No such thing as an IQ, so there’s no way to test for it. I mean, I could test for intelligence on whether or not someone is a socialist, but then people would immediately start objecting—which proves my point haha.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And I won't delete them either for nostalgia reasons⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Always reminds me of that comic where the person jumps from like 18 to 30 to 50 to dead, still going “wait a sec…” It’s so true!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And I won't delete them either for nostalgia reasons⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  My mom (both parents are 76) told me she’s basically always felt approximately like she did in her 20s. I get what she meant by that, even if I don’t quite feel that young in my head now in my late 40s.

  I can’t even tell anymore.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meh, I'm more of an Aragorn fan...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s the comic that forms the basis for the second part of the phrase. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loss_(Ctrl%2BAlt%2BDel)

  But it’s legos in that format, so the joke is actually Lego Loss, as in Legolas the Lord of the Rings character.

  They’re not being an edgelord, they’re just being sarcastic. And they’re right to question it because the only source I know of on the question states that there is no statistical correlation (Lundy Bancroft).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Simpler times?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  According to domestic violence expert Lundy Bancroft, it’s about 50/50. So as far as we know, there is no correlation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When you say you don't like linux on Lemmy⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m pretty sure you can use some distros without extra steps. Ubuntu is pretty mature.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does anyone know?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I really did start to feel like I had a better handle on things by mid 30s. Then it really sharpened in my early 40s. Not sure how clueless you might have still felt around then.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Excuse the fuck me?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been dying of that one since I was a teenager.

  Kid Rock should be abolished.

  Q.E.D.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cause and Effect⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I have to agree about the too good in their effectiveness. To get to a point where people are just like, “Nah, it ain’t a big deal” is built atop the millions of dead.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cause and Effect⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m really happy to see this discussion here. Intellectual self defense comes from a well rounded liberal arts education. The type of people who whine about having to take general education and non science courses are already displaying an alarming lack of critical thinking skills; they are exactly the ones who need it most.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨IT'S A TRAP⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The mass of dead bodies is what replenishes the new living ones on the finite track.

  Thank goodness for fentanyl, man. Puts me right to sleep every single time.

  Most don’t…but I do! Upboated/upgoated/bloopypoopy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Covers the bases⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s different for men because we fool ourselves into believing that it’s for women when it is indeed for other men most of the time.

  And Markiplier is a good looking dude. Why wouldn’t he be a good example?

  During the first Trump administration, his uncle went on Democracy Now! a few times to talk about their family history escaping Nazi Germany and how ridiculous it is that he’s such a hypocritical rabid bigot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cooking 😋⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It looks nice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dinner is ready! ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Has to be D. Last time I said Japanese and Mexican, but I forgot Iranian.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's depressing, man⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I totally get that. I routinely remind the dumbest people online that I am orders of magnitude intellectually superior to them, and they immediately assume I’m calling myself smart. Nope. I’m not that smart.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lies, all lies⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d really like to see a “where are they now” for that trio of actors who did this photoshoot. I’m sure someone interviewed them for a “I was in a meme” video…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lies, all lies⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I said I listen to everything! Yes, that includes Skrewdriver!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Doot doot⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes! Abolish skeletons! Let’s become Jellyfish.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I Got This Right, Right?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Can you be specific about what you mean by “radical far left”? Obviously we all agree that he’s a homicidal maniac, because he assassinated a person in public, but I don’t wanna just jump on the downvote bandwagon without hearing you out. What makes him a decent person?
