  • ‘You Can’t Lick a Badger Twice’: Google Failures Highlight a Fundamental AI Flaw

    Jump

  • The saying "you can't butter a fly" is an idiom expressing that someone or something is too difficult to influence or manipulate. It's rooted in the idea that butterflies, with their delicate nature, are virtually impossible to convince to do anything against their will, let alone "butter" them in a literal sense.

  • Keir Starmer does not believe trans women are women, No 10 says

    Jump

  • By your logic, when they freed the slaves, they really should've done it slowly instead of all at once, because look how many racists it made!

    Or was civil rights too fast as well?

  • Same argument that was made for gay people sharing locker rooms, bigots never get new material. If you're not comfortable sharing a bathroom with someone, then, ya know, you don't have to use it.

    Why is it queer people have to suffer for bigotry? Why not just be less of a bigot?

  • I rather think that would answer the question for most people. Were you confused on how he doesn't want to look like a weirdo so that his fascist beliefs are normalized?

  • Pope Ghosts JD Vance at Vatican, Sends Top Cardinal to Lecture VP on Compassion

    Jump

  • He doesn't want to look weird. That's all. He wants people to think he's normal, and by proxy, that all of his insane fascist beliefs are normal.

  • Because the only things that actual bother him are being called a fucking loser and weirdo. The actually shitty things he does, he would do a million times and feel nothing.

    And what you say can't be true, or the millions of lies he told would matter more.

  • AI can't even tell how many Rs are in strawberry. I have seen the code AI makes, and it is not almost there. It is quite far away. Give AI 10 years, and it will be "almost there", and even then it will still be incredibly shit code.

  • It sucks way worse for all those people born in 1488.

    Because they're dead.

  • Tim Walz says he and Harris were too ‘safe’ during 2024 presidential campaign

    Jump

  • I disagree. One, because it isn't forced down anyone's throats as long as you don't live in a fucking Fox News bubble. Two, because Democrats did extremely little to actually protect trans children during the election. And three, Republicans didn't gain votes; Democrats just lost them.

    It's a lot easier to argue that people thought that the Democrats weren't doing enough to address problems that existed now or that they didn't push issues that mattered to people, like abortion. Because they took very few real stances except the ones that seemed popular to everyone, but they also failed to get that message out a lot of the time because of very dumb actions on their part.

  • "Politics"

    Jump

  • Eh, fair enough. I was a bit rude there, but the intent is that while I agree this isn't a super complex piece of art, I don't think it needs to be. I would even argue that by making the message as simple as possible, it does what it sets out to do quite well, which is to physically represent the emotions of the author. Maybe they don't match yours, but that is the subjectivity of it. I know that I would be quite dismissive of other webcomics, but I would likely dismiss it for the subject matter, and not the quality. Webcomics tend to be a fairly simple medium, so I let a lot of things pass for it.

  • "Politics"

    Jump

  • I think you actually don't like the message of the comic, because if you didn't like it or thought it was lazy, you would probably move on.

    For me, this comic represents my lived experience. I have had people in my life literally say "It's just politics" and call trans people sexually deviant pedophiles at the same time. And if you haven't had that happen to you, good for you. But I like the comic because it is simple, short, and pretty good at conveying that feeling.

    Sorry if that feels lazy to you, art is subjective, but I think the message of this is pretty fucking obvious because of its simplicity.

  • "Politics"

    Jump

  • That's a fair point. I suppose that does put onus on people to prove their existence and experience. I can see that as frustrating, and I didn't intend on making that statement.

    The issue at hand, however, is how the OP can determine that trans people even exist, and using the existence of studies is one that is easily acceptable to most people. If your argument is that there should be no need to prove identities so long as no one is harmed, then I believe you are arguing with the wrong person, since that same sentiment was already expressed in my original reply.

    Taking your stance is fine to anyone that accepts that these identities harm no one, but that in itself is obviously in contention with too many people. I will argue the easier logic until that is fixed.
