IDK but if everyone does it there must be some biological advantage right?
Primates are pretty obsessive about their junk generally.

Its an evolutionary thing.

No.

IDK anything about biology so this is just supposition…
Aren’t fungi one of the oldest forms of life?
If so is it possible the poison isn’t really relevant to the fungis survival and reproduction, but just… incidentally toxic to mammals?

I’m so weary of these posts.
Its absolutely fine to prefer hotels.
There’s good and bad experiences to be had everywhere. Not surprisingly, if you choose the cheapest property and ignore the reviews… You’ll probably receive the experience you pay for.

I have very unsophisticated tastes.
Also really like rapace and would happily watch her run away from whatever in the dumbest way.

Fair enough. We can still talk about Prometheus though right ?

I know this was a popular myth I liked to discuss when I was 15, but in one of the later movies John selects someone else to fuck his mum instead.

Yeah I don’t see a reason to make T2 either. I mean there’s already T1. If they hasn’t made T2 then T1 could’ve just been T.
- Comment on New voting machines fix your vote if you accidentally select the wrong candidate. 2 weeks ago:
That doesn’t sound analogous at all.
Someone thought an icon was a button.
That’s not the same as someone pressing a democrat button, aparently successfully, and then seeing their vote had flipped to republican.
Especially in a UI which has the sole explicit purpose of enabling a user to accurately select either Republican or Democrat.

It’s so infuriating American’s seem to be lost in the woods. “It’s totally fine, we have checks and balances, the system can’t be subverted”.
- Comment on New voting machines fix your vote if you accidentally select the wrong candidate. 2 weeks ago:
I get what you’re saying but that doesn’t sound at all like what people are describing.
Like maybe you’d fumble a button once but when you have another go and are determined to get it right?

A dastardly plot!

This has always been a thing. Who knows if it’s moreso now or not.
If you don’t like your situation then it’s kind of natural to romanticise some great upheaval that would shatter the status quo.
- Comment on Paris, France 2 weeks ago:
A false dichotomy is the presentation of a problem as a binary choice, when in fact there’s a variety of solutions.
In this case Americans are doing nothing to prevent the rise of fascism.
You’re claiming that you’re doing nothing because violent protest is counter-productive, and ignoring all of the other solutions.
- Comment on Paris, France 2 weeks ago:
False dichotomy.
- Comment on Does anyone actually believe this "rogue AI" nonsense? 2 weeks ago:
The house of el is a good YouTube channel from a researcher that seems to tell it how it is.
AI can do amazing things and its here to stay, but the tech bros will say anything to secure some more funding.
- Comment on Can a male with a prostate involuntarily or forcefully have the cum fucked out of him to the point of (prostate) orgasm involuntarily and unwillingly? 2 weeks ago:
I’m sure you didn’t mean it this way but this question is kind of about consent and / or rape.
Feeling aroused while being raped is a common source of guilt on the part of the victim. This is well documented. You could google it if you’re curious about that.
I’m not a mod here but this might be a rule 2 violation.
- Comment on Paris, France 2 weeks ago:
I don’t think Americans can really throw any shade on anyone about how to protest.
- Comment on Banana for scale 2 weeks ago:
Metric allows you to convert between length volume and mass in your head. Someone smarter than me could probably take a reasonable estimate of how long a kettle will take to boil just by knowing it’s wattage and estimating its volume.
You’re right that “pounds” may have e been a practical measurement back when people didn’t have calibrated and everyone’s hand weighed a pound. However, that advantage ceased once everyone standardised those measurements.
A metre is equally divisible by 50, 25, 20, 10, 5, and 2. There arr numerous advantages to a base 10 system.

Hey wow you’re still here. I worried you might have been lost with that yandex thing.

It’s true that I’m not really paying attention to this.

You probably don’t have enough information to reach that conclusion but suffice to say the guy was not of sound mind and is probably deserving of sympathy.
For the Americans, that doesn’t mean the cat has to die. Sometimes there’s no goodie vs baddie narrative.

That’s kinda my point.
Relationship was certainly “weird”, but not “rape”.
- Comment on Fr*nce 3 weeks ago:
That’s what I initially thought but I did some reading and it’s not really the case.
Firstly, the age of consent in france is 15, and the attitudes of the French people are much more relaxed in this area, and I can respect that.
However, it’s likely there was some kind of relationship when he was 15 and she was 39. There’s no evidence that it was sexual but I kinda assume that it was. His parents sent him to a school in Paris to break them up. I can’t be bothered linking the source but it’s mentioned on the wikipedia page and you can click through to read the references.
On balance, it seems no laws were broken and it seems unlikely that either party was harmed. However, the early years of their relationship were certainly dubious ethically.
