- Comment on If just before a cremation, I lined the coffin with 30 phone batteries, would the resulting lithium ion fireworks display have any meaningful effect on the proceedings? 1 week ago:
You don’t burn the coffin during cremation
- Comment on NOT SEEKING MEDICAL ADVICE. How does one deal with grief or loss in a safe way without turning to alcohol or drugs? 1 week ago:
Don’t pish yourself to “move on” if you feel like it’s not what you need.
Too many people try to push the idea that you have to always move on and basically completely stop feeling bad after a while (and often a short one) but that’s bullshit. Think about what you need, what you want, try to find inner peace whether it is by keeping your emotions, or letting them go.
And obviously, therapy.
- Comment on Paris, France 2 weeks ago:
Riots aren’t what drives people to the far-right. Macron doing heavy propaganda in favour of the far right for a decade, did.
- Comment on Why don't people do Documentaries about the average person instead of someone who was in the news or pop culture? Like their neighbor or something. 2 weeks ago:
They… do?
- Comment on Will the proliferation of AI slop lead to the renaissance of craftsmanship? 2 weeks ago:
If anything, it would happen only after “AI” crashes down and provokes a massive social shift. Which might not happen atvall, but then humanity will just disappear so the question won’t really matter.
- Comment on Why do we need legal genders at all? 2 weeks ago:
Nice nazi conversation you got there.
- Comment on If a community keeps posting post will it show up as more active and thus drawing more users? Even if it's one person who posts a lot? 4 weeks ago:
People quickly see that it’s just one person and quickly lose interest
- Comment on If French people are strict about eating on a set schedule, then when do waiters and cooks eat? 5 weeks ago:
Try to find an appointment with a doctor or administration in August and you’ll see that it’s not too far off.
- Comment on Why do we assume paper towels are sterile, or at least clean? 1 month ago:
I’m losing IQ just by reading your comment.
- Comment on Why do we assume paper towels are sterile, or at least clean? 1 month ago:
People were licking door handles during covid lockdowns, and encouraging their kids in school to cough outside of their masks during classes, and you think anyone has any kind of understanding of the concept of sterility?
Also, things rarely need to be actually sterile in your daily life, they just need to not be contaminated. And if you need to put a paper towel on a cut for example, you can just put disinfectant on it first and that probably would be enough.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
What you have is beliefs, which is normal.
A religion is a scam where people are told that all of their beliefs are or should be the same, which is absurd.
Believe what you feel is right, question it often, and that’s all. Religions are useless at best, dangerous in general.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
This comment section manages to be even more horrifying than the question.
Why is everyone so creepy, seriously?
- Comment on Why do so many people regardless of whether their reasonings are justified or not pinpoint South Park for ruining a generation of millenials? 2 months ago:
Another typical far-right thing, building a strawman and going crazy on it.
I don’t want to punch people I disagree with, I want to punch nazis. The fact that you are getting so concerned by that is strange, because I am not scared of people who hunt nazis. It’s actually pretty easy to not be a nazi.
So the question really is, why are you so worried about the wellbeing of nazis?
And because I know what you’re going to say, what I consider a nazi is someone that wants to oppress minorities or goes against their existence. If you defend that, then you’re part of them.
- Comment on Why do so many people regardless of whether their reasonings are justified or not pinpoint South Park for ruining a generation of millenials? 2 months ago:
Ah yes, the typical far-right technique of mirroring attacks against them.
“We’re not antisemitic nazis, the leftists are, look at them criticizing Israel”.
“I’m colorblind, maybe you’re the racist one by focusing so much on color”
And whatnot.
Let me guess, next you’re going to start mentioning freedom of speech?
- Comment on Why do so many people regardless of whether their reasonings are justified or not pinpoint South Park for ruining a generation of millenials? 2 months ago:
Yeah I want to beat up nazis, and if you feel bad for the nazis then guess which side that puts you in.
The point that you’re proving isn’t what you think it is.
- Comment on Why are expressions like "women artists" or "women writers" used? 2 months ago:
Female has meanings that mean “female sex”, woman doesn’t.
Language influences and even if theoretically, female can mean woman, it still adds an implicit link to sex.
As you said, language is subjective, so even if a dictionary says that female can refer to women, in practice as someone else pointed out, you can talk about a female dog, you can’t talk about a woman dog.
- Comment on Why are expressions like "women artists" or "women writers" used? 2 months ago:
I don’t know, using new pronouns can also sound clumsy, doesn’t mean it’s a bad idea.
The strong implicit links in language between sex and gender are not really helping anyone, and a bit of clumsiness for a while isn’t such a big cost.
I don’t know if that was the intention of the example you mentioned obviously.
- Comment on Why are expressions like "women artists" or "women writers" used? 2 months ago:
A woman isn’t necessarily female.
- Comment on Why do so many people regardless of whether their reasonings are justified or not pinpoint South Park for ruining a generation of millenials? 2 months ago:
That’s such a stupid take.
People who are “hostile” over social justice, are hostile against social injustice. Social injustice is violent, in many many ways.
Your take is basically “I don’t like these people, because they are violent against violence to try to fix it”. I’m sure that stagnating in violence is better than to try to fix it, huh.
Tell me that you’re a privileged brat without telling me that you’re a privileged brat.

It’s fine, let’s just not question “democracies” for a bit longer and see what happens
- Comment on Would people like a "X posts per Y" rate limit for this community? 2 months ago:
This post is literally about amending the rules to block the kind of shitty spam the discussion is about. Your argument is to not change the rules because there are already rules?
- Comment on Would people like a "X posts per Y" rate limit for this community? 2 months ago:
Yeah because when a place not only lacks content, but on top of that most of it is shitty spam, it makes people want to engage a lot more, right?
- Comment on Someone said I post an average of 6 posts a day. Where did they get that type of information? Not upset curious cause it's another way I can compliment others with facts about them. 3 months ago:
So you’re an ex-coder huh
- Comment on Male ejaculation travels at an avg speed of 28 mph. How come it doesn't blow the back of a woman or male neck out or cause other serious damage at that speed? 3 months ago:
“Woman or male”
Gosh these questions never stop getting more and more stupid, this place really needs to be renamed “increasingly stupid questions”
- Comment on How can AI act without initial human input? Does this show AI can have freewill or am I deceived? 3 months ago:
So people still have absolutely not a single clue what “AIs” are and think that ChatGPT is a sentient android or something.
But then when you tell them to not kill or torture animals, the same people will refuse to acknowledge that they are sentient.
What a pathetic humanity.
- Comment on If Sodom and Gomorrah were real. How bad were they that god had to come down and smite them? Are they any comparison to today's society? 3 months ago:
If you assume that god follows reason and morals, and is as described in the bible, then he’s horrible and evil and is basically Satan but worse.
So there’s not really any discussion.
- Comment on Are Edward Snowden and Jeffrey Epstein assets? 3 months ago:
Yes, this question is very legitimate, absolutely-not-suspicious-one-week-olf-account.
- Comment on What are your thoughts on people who say hate speech is free speech? 3 months ago:
Free speech is used nonsensically, because it is now mostly used by far-right extremists that try to manipulate their audience. It doesn’t mean just “free speech” anymore.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
You can tell that information is reliable when it’s a bunch of screenshots of an AI slopmmary
- Comment on Why don't people afraid of AI instead use it while they can to make decent money? 3 months ago:
“Why are people with morals or reason not doing immoral and unreasonable things out of pure selfishness?”
This post says a lot about you mate.
