  • I never know if I'm doing enough for trans people. I like to think of my stance towards trans folk as "benevolent indifference." That is - I don't care even the smallest bit if someone is trans. They're a person, and that's all that's needed for my respect.

    But I also recognize that that position isn't always enough. It's like when people said "All Lives Matter" in response to the BLM movement. Yes, all lives do matter, and my goal for society would be one where "All lives matter" is the only stance you need, but we don't live in that world and sometimes we have to focus on protecting specific groups.

    But, as a white, male, cisgenger christian I also don't want to fall into a "white savior" leadership mentality, so I never know how loudly to speak out on behalf of groups I'm not a part of.

  • You don't know if you're sane. Millions of people aren't aware of their mental illness and manage to live normal lives. LLMs can trigger delusional states in vulnerable people that have never experienced them because they are essentially delision-generating machines.

  • That's disrespectful.

    Restaurants should offer free food to those heroes for a few days for protecting Americans from foreign criminals.

    Then they can release all the pictures they took of them when they removed their masks to eat.

  • Not having to keep pace. They just get the competitive cars banned in the US, then charge so much fucking money here for their shit products it's worth losing the rest of the world.

  • Or just wear a hoodie and mechanics gloves and don't drive up to it.

  • "You need to use the app to reserve a space for the public park."

  • Protests are an opening offer.

    If you aren't willing to escalate, then they're meaningless.

  • 1/1/however far back the wheel scrolls before I click the year.

    And it's distressingly common for it to under-report my age - stupid march of time.

  • Maybe "less unethical... for now"?

  • Rolls initiatve

  • Jokes on them. I make above median income and I'll never be able to afford kids.

  • The thing about a college education is that you absorb a lot of information that you don't really think about.

    I'm no smarter than I was in high school, but I know a fuckton more. I just can't itemize what it is I've learned.

  • I swear I don't understand college students who work so hard not to learn.

    It's like they want to get as little education for their money as possible.

  • I have an old garden shed I converted.

    I'm looking to replace the Bambu printers, but they're what I have for now.

  • I'm starting to wonder if these Armageddon cultists see Trump as the Antichrist and see that as a good thing.

    Anything to bring about the end.

  • Education is key in firearm safety.

    Nobody scares me more at the range than adults who rent a gun who clearly have no experience. They're often simultaneously confident and dangerous. Kids at the range are afraid of getting in trouble so listen to people telling them how to be safe, but adults are the fucking worst.

  • Since the primaries are held at different times in different states, lots of people don't have an option by the time the presidential primary gets to their state since it's essentially over and all the other candidates have dropped out.

  • When I watched Breaking Bad, I was mesmerized by Walt's descent from a man who just wanted to help his family into the monster he became.

    When I watched it the second time, I realized there was no descent. The monster was there from the first frame, but I had been used to seeing the main character as essentially good.

    Brian Cranston's performance gets praised all day every day online, and against all odds it lives up to the hype.

  • Yep. I pirated when I was young because doing things "proper" was more difficult. Then they started having reasonable fees for services that were easy to use without ads.

    But now the prices are outrageous, the ads are back, and everything is so fragmented. Piracy is the better user experience again. I was about to set up a NAS and start sailing again, but now storage prices are jumping.

    I may just start going outside.
