  I haven’t listened to Knowledge Fight for a while because I’m watching my own mental health a bit, but ol AJ has never sounded actually happy for more than an episode or two. Hatred like they have sounds like they sleep well, but they’re fucking miserable too. J.K. Rowling could shut up and just enjoy being rich, but she still has to find someone to hate and hurt. You wouldn’t really hear about a happy person.

  Since Chiropractic medicine was invented in America by a spiritualist quack, I would say trying to use the same name for valid medical practices in another country is the mistake of whoever decided that was ok to do. It’s like saying yes, wizardry is bullshit in America, but in many other countries it’s a valid form of pharmacology. Just call it the valid term that has regulations.

  ? I have no clue what gender you are, and it doesn’t really matter with my point? I just showed proof that the people being mocked are using the daddy thing themselves, and my Alex Jones example is a prime example of toxic patriarchy, so I’m not sure why you would think I would say it’s separate. Tucker is also a toxic misogynist, and I’m sure some of his jests were a combination of the sexual meaning too. I just said not everyone who uses yes daddy as an insult is doing it in a sexual manner.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pretty much it.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes daddy isn’t always meant to be sexual. It’s something they literally said themselves, like "Daddy’s home!” and “Daddy Don!” at a rally. See theguardian.com/…/tucker-carlson-trump-rally-span…

  In this case we mean it more like childlike belief that your “daddy” is always right and a big strong hero who can’t lose. Usually people grow out of it, but a lot of the right don’t seemed to have matured in this way. People like Alex Jones also associates the “daddy” as his rightful place as a ruler of a household, and has gone into rants during the pandemic because some vaccine commercial dared to suggest the children might understand something better than “daddy” and may teach “daddy” something.

  Atheists use the term in a similar way when they say “sky daddy.” Do you also think that just means a sexual submission kink?

  One of the asian ones is a frog in a well. Though it carries more the connotation of Dunning-Kreuger, though more due to environment and experience vs a mental condition.

  Not everyone is into them. I like some poems, but they’re not really super interesting to me. I don’t dismiss them as an art form, and appreciate they exist, but I don’t get much out of just reading them. I prefer poetic language in music I guess, though I’m not into poems enough to fully identify those. I know I like songs that tell an interesting narrative with unusual words etc, but dunno if they qualify as poems.

  I almost never wash rice unless I’m doing it for korean dishes that use the water, and I don’t have that issue. I do use a cheap rice cooker, and it comes out fine.

  It can tell us when traffic is backed up on a route. I of course know my work route by memory, including 5-6 route changes I could take. Though, why would I take those changes unless I know ahead of time I needed to? Using navigation can tell us problems on the route, whether or not we can go around effectively, or whether or not we should just let someone expecting us earlier how late well probably be.

  Isn’t the story of a majority of Monster Hunter games preservation? When certain monsters start destroying the balance of a biome, that’s when we’re supposed to take them out. You of course hunt multiple times because it’s a game, but story wise you’re only killing what needs to be killed to preserve balance and continued existence of all the monsters, often hampering an invasive species or a specific infection etc.

  I’m not defending Christianity, but the actual defense of pork is that Jesus had made pork clean, in a vision to Peter where the analogy was that Jesus also made non Jewish people clean, since mixing with them was also forbidden. So less accident, more amendment.

  They would also claim (from my experience in a cult anyway) that the old laws were necessary at the time they were given, but by the time Jesus came he could revise them as they were more ready.

  If we look at it from a secular viewpoint, badly cooked pork probably caused a bunch of illness to was banned, and by the time Jesus supposedly existed people had learned to cook it more safely.

  ADHD means a lot of games with a ton of hours. Over 1k include Ark, Warframe, FFXIV, Civ V and Civ VI, Monster Hunter games, Elite Dangerous, Fallout 4, Pal world is close at 996h etc. Generally I like a lot of stuff, except maybe most first person shooters, battle royales, and I can’t actually recall playing a sports game past some SNES basketball games. Do Mario mini games count?

  There’s also a Hypothesis iirc that this rapid expansion also lowered our life span. Longevity Bottleneck Hypothesis though I think this one includes dinosaurs hunting mammals, and maybe Disposable Soma Theory.

  Huh, the second one could probably be used to explain elves in fantasy: long life, low reproduction rate.

  It’s more a comment on the current American inter* of Jesus, especially those on billboards etc. There’s no real abortion hatred in the Bible either; people usually just use the scripture about god knowing them in the womb, despite a supposed abortion remedy being in the Bible, or Exodus 21:22-24 where the baby dying is only a fine but any damage to the pregnant woman is repaid in kind (eye for eye, tooth for tooth, death for death).

  Hmm, the only time I learned about false cognates was when learning high school Spanish, so I assumed it meant two words that sound similar in different languages but have different meanings, rather than homonyms in the same language.

  Example: embarrassed and embarazado

  Looking the above example up for spelling, I see it’s called a false friend, and while it is a false cognate, false cognates can be in the same language too(from here en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Glossary#false_co… ) :

  false cognate A word in a language that bears a phonetic and semantic resemblance to a word in another or the same language but is not etymologically related to it and thus not a true cognate. Examples include English day/Portuguese dia, German Feuer/French feu (both meaning “fire”), Malay dua/Sanskrit द्व (dva) (both meaning “two”), and English dog/Mbabaram dog. Compare false friend. false friend A word in a language that bears a phonetic resemblance to a word in another language, often because of a common etymology, but has a different meaning. Examples include English parent/Portuguese parente (“relative”) and English embarrassed/Spanish embarazada (“pregnant”). Compare false cognate.
