bit by bit…
Our ability to rapidly ingest the opinions and experiences of others through language, media, demonstrations, etc. has given us as a species, an incredible advantage, along with some risks you noted.
For an example species following the “learn it for yourself” approach, see the very intelligent but very limited octopus.
Everlast - What it’s like No particularly graceful person in the song, except maybe the singer himself, but encourages grace and perspective from the listener.
Oh no! You’ll arrive 5 minutes later while reducing pedestrian fatalties! How will Murica survive?
“…identifying with our sinful emotions and desires” Don’t they also say that’s why he was fucking sent to Earth in the first place?
And the US evangelical team has won the gold in mental gymnastics once again.
This is kinda sad, since I am genuinely worried that we’re relying on AI tools to assist with comprehending what I thought was pretty straightforward allegory.
I phrased it the way I did in case it was actually ME that was getting trolled. Hopefully that’s all it is, and I’m just underestimating the depth of trolling here.
Someone also posted an AI-generated summary for audience members whose reading comprehension skills have already atrophied.
Good luck, humanity.
“… I had to use AI to figure out what this is supposed to mean.” I can only hope you really mean “I CHOSE to IRONICALLY use AI to figure out what this is supposed to mean.”
lol did you just “I know you are but what am I”? Why not address the accusation? How is “I don’t see color” different than “I don’t see gender”?
I bet you don’t see color, either…
I hope this isn’t a photo from mode pandemic… I mean fuck cars and all that, but drive thru was clutch for a bit there.
We’re speaking German after French aristocrats gave us the names for all the fancy things we couldn’t afford when we were all peasants.
20 minute drive out to the honey farmer, 10 minutes to my asparagus guy, 10 minutes to the butcher for some chicken, hmmm if only there were some sort of larger… super large market so that I don’t spend so much of my life driving around…
Interesting. Culturally, France seems like the most child-hostile country in western Europe. I wonder if this is them trying to make children more acceptable in public. Good luck France! You’ll have to get over yourself first. Can’t take yourself too seriously when children are in the mix.
it also has a log cabin… and Log Cabin is a maple syrup brand… and maple syrup is from maple trees… and maple leaves are on Canadian flags… so… a snowman?
I followed the cited source for the wikipedia claim, and it’s just a guy writing a paper and saying his opinion. He’s not citing anything deeper to cover his claim about an initial volley followed by targetting individual solders. Just because it’s in a paper doesn’t mean it’s right, or even well-researched.
Sure, it FEELS right, and that does have weight with living history and experimental archeology, but I worry that “feeling” is the only thing anyone is actually citing in this whole conversation, including Wikipedia.
Nobody was holding a ~90lb war bow at full draw waiting to hear “Loose”. Not possible.
Volley fire wasn’t a thing with bows. You ever try holding a 90lb war bow at full draw waiting for someone to yell “Loose”? Never happened.
left tends to be pro-social for solutions, right tends to be pro-violence for solutions, so… yeah…
I wanted write super reliable software after finishing school, so I thought I would get my Professional Engineer license (American). Passed my FE exam (thermo was fun), found a PE to work under, but then Software engineering was removed from the licenses list. 🫠 Now I work in safety-certified software, but I’ll probably never get to write that “P.E.” behind my name.
