A few years later: “dang, they knew all along”

I can tolerate that, the one I can’t stand is Netflix shows where the ~dialogue is a mumbled quiet~ and random bits of foley try to blow my speakers out.

It makes it especially noticeable just how dodgy a lot of foley/sound editing work is, eg when someone throwing a punch and missing still goes WHOOSH at the same volume they use for gunshots. There’s YA shows now where even the camera panning gets a sound effect ffs

This is one topic I’m quite willing to go into conspiracy theory territory on, because Google have a lot of very clever engineers and must surely know that their search is dogshit.

The only plausible explanation is that they’re somehow making more money doing this than they did by being quietly competent.

You don’t even need to reject the applicability of Gödel, because there’s no proof that our universe doesn’t include a bunch of undecidable things tucked away in the margins. Jupiter could be filled with complete nonsense for all we know.

Yeah, if you were to ask “do cisgender people like to be noticed?” people would assume you were being facetious.

It doesn’t stand up on its own terms on other levels as well.

Even the most cynical misandrist interpretation of how research is funded would still lean towards men being given the agency on whether sex lead to pregnancy.

Yeah I think this could backfire horribly, when grifters with degrees are given that extra credibility by government decree. Andrew Wakefield is a doctor after all.

That sub wasn’t like this a year ago. This is a stark tell that the sub has either been captured by bad-faith agenda mods, or is being heavily botted. Or both.

He declared that “cis” was a slur and banned Twitter users who used it

It’s a good way to get answers to Password Recovery questions that people forgot they used when signing up to some website or email service 15 years ago but are still active on

Sadly also too tall for the blood to reach their brains, resulting in Shit Art Syndrome and Dick Hygiene Forgetfulness.

Lucky I’ve not encountered him, the urge to talk to him like a 5 year old would be too great.

“What a big truck you have! And it’s so high up! I bet you have to do a big jump to get up there. And look, it says “WAR” on the front, that’s fun! Did you put that on yourself, or did you ask a man do it for you?”
