Rhythmic? No, not really. More exciting if the musician could somehow anticipate this fundamentally unpredictable event? Absolutely.

In Aristotelian geography, the coastline is infinitely divisible.

That was a separate experiment.

But you have to understand, to 74 million people, the Fox News Cinematic Universe is reality. There’s regular bullshit, and then there’s bullshit so widely believed that you actually have to study the bullshit, just to be able to predict what its subscribers will do next. Like religion.

That comment was not referring to literal nazis. They were talking about the American right wing.

If Santa wasn’t real, how you’d explain finland?

Right. I’m one of those “deluded” queers for Palestine, but even in peacetime, I wouldn’t sashay into Gaza City in assless chaps and hope for the best. There’s plenty of homophobia in the world, especially wherever there is Islam, and the British obviously did not invent it.

I would still rather try to defeat homophobia with words than watch homophobes (and their innocent children) get murdered by an army which has its own homophobes, for reasons unrelated to homophobia.

Speaking as a Marxist, we did in fact need to chuck Newtonianism out the window early last century since it turned out not to work at high speeds, in strong gravitational fields, or at very small scales…

What game is this?

Counterpoint: he’s controversial because of what he says and does, not because of lies people tell about him.

I tried to explain this near the time of the event, back when I was on reddit. For this I received mass downvoting, and a universal consensus that misgendering is perfectly appropriate as long as the target has done something evil. Even from trans people. “We don’t claim her!”

It would be one thing if these same people also misgendered any given cis person who did wrong. But they don’t, and that double standard is transphobia. “Of course I would never misgender Hitler. He was AMAB. He earned it. You’re not AMAB? Then your right to be a man is contingent on your behavior. I’ll decide if you’ve been good enough to deserve it.”

We’ve got a long way to go culturally before people recognize that there is literally one and only one valid criterion for entitlement to a certain gender identity: claiming it.

For airborne contagions. Next question.

We all know they would if they had the thumbs for it. Fuck bulls.

I’ve got the daily low-dose version, and it’s changed my life. True to expectation from a dissociative drug, it causes me not to feel so much personal identification with the unwanted thoughts that keep bubbling up in my head. It may not work for everyone, but it works for me.

I’m so dreadfully sorry. I cannot help myself. Please forgive me.

It’s “zero kelvins” not “zero degrees Kelvin.”

The question was, “How do you deal with depression about climate change?” Maybe voting in local elections does that for you (singular), but it may not work for you (general).

Already doing that. No change in material conditions, still depressed. Next idea?

Well then it becomes a logistical question. How?

100mg of ketamine every day, half in the morning, half in the afternoon.

So your solution to depression about climate change is, “singlehandedly accomplish what all of the non-evil politicians have been trying and failing to do for decades, but do that while both powerless and depressed”?
