- Comment on I'm literally a thinking lump of fat 2 days ago:
you should get rid of the assumption that things need to make sense to these people
trust me I don’t but especially if I pick up the simulation thing that also seems to concern a lot of people who aren’t religious. I mean I get the religious people, it’s in direct affront to the axioms you structure your entire shit around. That makes sense to me, even if I don’t share the axioms.

I’m aware it’s controversial, I just genuinely do not get why you would care.
- Comment on I'm literally a thinking lump of fat 2 days ago:
honestly I never got this. Same with the simulation thing. What’s it matter if we’re in a simulation or all I ever do is the result of some salty fat firing off neurons? I mean what am I going to do about that?

…we also have brains capable of abstract reasoning, but nevermind that!
Not entirely convinced this is true of the people who claim 2 sharp teeth means we gotta do factory farming

I’m here to report that divine punishment did get served, albeit god has a cruel sense of humor, so that specific whales jaw got sheared off by a speeding ferry, causing it to drown after hours of vocal, agonizing pain

Yes, the point is to see something like your birthyear or maybe that good summer in your 20s being described as too old to be relevant anymore stings

ecocide statistic is misleading, because they didn’t count roggebrood house which houses all moths in their greater area

I feel like with all this placebo stuff you get like 10% increase in perceived well-being vs. a good 10% of the population just going full woo woo about this stuff

I’d respect that a lot more on the basis of you have to have argued yourself into that one in some way that isn’t being subservient to your elementary school teachers authority at 45

The fact that 25% of women did do it and 25% of men didn’t is fascinating to me. What are your favorite explanations here?
I’m going with 25% of people of either gender are just sort of contrarians to their own gender and thus did what they think the opposite one would do. I feel like I would do that.
- Comment on Linguistics 5 months ago:
there’s a joke here about me rejecting the notion of what prescriptivist and descriptivist mean
but yes, thanks, got some wires crossed there
- Comment on Linguistics 5 months ago:
You know what my biggest problem with descriptivists is? What is “correct” always coincides exactly to what they learned in school or university from 15 - 20. It’s never anything else. Never in like 20.000 years of human history did we nail language except for that timeframe, and never will it happen again. what a coinkidink.

Honestly I’m swallowing this wholesale if it happened until like the early 90s or something. Maybe even later. To think of roman hairdressing styles as entirely an archeological question and never one where you might ask a hairdresser seems pretty par for the course for academia

My dad had to mow the lawn when I was away or heavily distracted because I’d cry about the dandelions and daisies being cut down lol
Still irks me to this day when I have to do it.

- Comment on If Britain is so bothered by China, why do these .gov.uk sites use Chinese ad brokers? 7 months ago:
Why would you need an ad broker to advertise your own shit. Like just put it there? Using the ad broker would be all of the same work except with more middleman.
