Perfect.

I hate this because “species” is more specific than “order”. It should have been, eg, “…not even my phylum!”

Hey, remember “Too Much Coffee Man”?

No, I don’t think so. You’ve introduced metagaming. It’s an interesting thing you’ve created, but it’s not the same kind of thing.

No one is “cleared for psychosis”, it can occur to anyone and not just from psychiatric conditions. I cannot reason you into seeing this if you are in the middle of it, but I do sincerely hope you show this to someone in your life, even if it’s just because you’re curious what they would say. People in psychosis rarely intentionally do anything dangerous even when urged by its narrative, but they can easily accidentally do things to harm themselves and others, and it can place an enormous strain on relationships if left untreated.

One don’t have a choice in the matter. One cannot think one’s way out of psychosis. It just incorporates one’s ideas on the subject and continues to blossom. Please show your posts and comments to someone you trust IRL.

Show this post to your wife.

I learned to control symptoms so much it sense a second nature.
That belief is symptomatic.

No one is saying you’re bipolar. We’re saying you are obviously not well. I think it was irresponsible for people to call what we are seeing mania with such certainty but you have certainly started to lost touch with our shared reality.

I guess the surprising thing is that only (?) fungi do that
- Comment on Plants looking at people looking at people looking at fungi 2 weeks ago:
Yeah but that’s not the analogous part
- Comment on Plants looking at people looking at people looking at fungi 2 weeks ago:
What’s that mean exactly, that they use proteins that can be further folded, and exploit that?

1st world – the US and its allies
2nd world – the USSR and its allies
3rd world – unaligned nations

Hey, me too! I love that my appearance progresses with the seasons. I like growing through different styles, and the ritual of the yearly cut.
- Comment on How often do guys have a haircut? 2 weeks ago:
Can’t definitively say this is a you thing, but this is very much not a me thing.
- Comment on How often do guys have a haircut? 2 weeks ago:
I cut my own hair every winter solstice.

Copyright is civil, not criminal. Oh but I guess the DMCA added some criminal elements…

Doesn’t qualify. They would have to trick the victim into inviting or causing it in some way.
- Comment on Ethical alternatives to Spotify 2 weeks ago:
The available evidence says otherwise. You really got your ego wrapped up in this somehow. Which is WEIRD.

I’m subscribed to various music producers on YouTube
So you DO enjoy streaming music…
Even while you are being careful, you are still reading things in. He didn’t say he listens to music on YouTube. If you’re going to be pedantic, do it right.
- Comment on Ethical alternatives to Spotify 2 weeks ago:
You could still do that without paying Spotify. Then you could go and buy the music you liked each month.

Well, shit!
-
Epic Games bought Bandcamp in March 2022.
-
In 2023, Bandcamp’s workers unionized under “Bandcamp United.”
-
In late 2023 (October), Epic sold Bandcamp to Songtradr, a music licensing company.
-
As part of that sale, many of the former Bandcamp employees were not offered positions by Songtradr, particularly those involved in union organizing.
-
Songtradr stated it would continue Bandcamp’s marketplace model and its “artist-first revenue share,” but declined to confirm whether certain features (e.g. user experience, Bandcamp Daily editorial) would remain unchanged.
I had no idea. Union busting, now… What a great way to show you respect the people who generate your wealth.

“So often?” I only heard about Epic acquiring them, have there been developments?
- Comment on Ethical alternatives to Spotify 2 weeks ago:
It is legal to download music from P2P networks where I live. Whether it’s ethical is another argument, but it really only has to be MORE ethical than using Spotify.

My late 20s partner has no idea what Napster is and it breaks my heart.
