Such a great show. Every episode’s a banger.

Met him once when I lived in Vancouver. Said to my coworker that last customer was so chill and nice. He said “that was Seth Rogen.” And damn, it was.
Mowed lawns. Just let it grow, it’s easier and healthier.
This is literal and an innuendo.
Says fat people promote unhealthy lifestyles. Gif: An obese chick getting exercise while playing an instrument that takes considerable muscle control and a high lung capacity.
Damn. Lot of people really hate fat folks. I’m just saying you want to prove fat people are unhealthy— a woman in a career that takes a high level of stamina and discipline isn’t a great example.
I say this as someone who’s been involved in cryptocurrency, in some way, for almost a decade: Do not look at it as a source of income. That’s my warning.
Most money I’ve made off crypto was by accepting it as a source of payment for freelance work, and selling when the price went up. I’ve made only one lucrative investment on a token and it’s because the developer team was a friend of a friend, I only spent the money I could easily afford and pulled out early, once it tripled. Don’t fall for FOMO, even if you could have made more money.
If you go forward, stick with media put out by the major, legitimate exchanges. They have a lot of information on how to get started.
Stay away from crypto-bro hype schemes, do not buy/trade anything from any project/company that isn’t legitimate, with a strong social media presence and a community.
You can make good money off pump schemes if you’re in their communities and keep a close watch on what they’re doing.
Sign up for airdrops of new tokens and coins, shit you can get for free just by joining/signing up for something. A lot of times it’s trash you’ll never get rid of, sometimes it’s free money.
I’ve been using metamask as a wallet for years, it’s one of the most accessible platforms and has a lot of information and support on how to use it.
For the love of god do not look to NFTs as an investment.
Never, ever, spend money you can’t afford to lose.
A dating app.
Track which people have contagious diseases and subtly push them toward others. Use GPS, biometric data and consumer profiles. Program bot accounts to set up dates with real people in public places, the hookups are fake, but they just need to be in the vicinity.
Once a sustantial data pool has been filled and patterns have been established, begin intentionally infecting the swingiest people on the app with a custom virus. Create a matchmaker algorithm based on the data to see how far and wide it can spread.
Call the app: Cuntagion.
This is called a ‘Hyperbole.’
I didn’t realize I was giving fascists a reason not to stop being fascists.
that’s super weird and also I think fascist somehow
It’s a toy. A succulent little toy.
Not at will, no. But the sex/gender attraction thing isn’t accurate.
People who consider themselves straight may still feel the same level of attraction toward trans people of their preferred gender. In my limited understanding, this is based on a combination of presentation, hormones and pheromones.
Do we know how energy usage of AI compares to other daily tasks?
Like: rendering a minute of a fully animated film, flying from L.A. to New York, watching a whole series on Netflix, scrolling this site for an hour, or manufacturing a bottle of tylenol?
How does asking AI “2+2” compare to generating a three second animation in 1080p? There has to be a wide gamut of energy use per task.
And then the impact would depend on where your energy comes from. Which is a whole other thing, we should be demanding cleaner, more efficient energy sources.
A quick search on energy consumption by AI brings up a list of articles repeating the mantra that it’s substantial, but sources are vague or non-existent. None provide details to be able to confidently answer any of the above questions.
That’s not to say AI doesn’t consume significant power, it’s saying most people don’t regulate their lives by energy consumption.
I’ve read plenty of specific papers on the subject of menstrual cycles and effects of hormones and, in short, well, you’re kinda full of shit. I don’t think you know what a menstrual cycle or hormones actually are, and I don’t think you’ve read tons and tons of studies on how hormones affect our bodies. Because you’re just kind of explaining being a person. Those are the things that hormones affect for everyone, every day. And women do not have more of them than men.
I wish they had those same ethics with my first birth control when I was hospitalized with severe depression. I wasn’t even told it was a side effect. Ten years later there was a class action lawsuit and it was discontinued.
Considering men default humans and women an “other,” is the exact bias that has held back medical care for half the fucking population.
Everyone’s hormones are always in flux, every day. Eating food can drastically affect your hormones. Aerobic excercise can affect your hormones. Men have hormonal cycles as well.
What you wrote here about costs associated with medical research on women seems paraphrased from some out-of-date medical journal. Unless menstrual cycles are being studied, you do not “have to do all kinds of correction and analyses” to make sure they’re not affecting that study. I have no idea where you heard that, and would go as far as to say you just made it up. I don’t even know where to begin with the pregnancy test thing, unless you’re thinking of only medical trials, specifically.
It was one of the worst pains I’ve ever experienced and they gave me mother fucking tylenol.
I got the IUD after twelve years of trying to convince doctors my cramps were unusually bad, and being prescribed mother fucking tylenol, for what I later learned were “muscle spasms similar to labor,” every. single. month.
The IUD helped! If you have the same, ask about a Mirena and bring a flask of something strong. Like opium.
Appeal to Fallacy.
It might not be a fallacy.
A fallacy doesn’t make an argument wrong.
There are degrees of fallacies.
Claiming a statement is wrong because there might be a fallacy is a thought-ending argument. There’s more nuance and relatability in rhetoric. Refusing to engage because someone’s using a fallacy is reasonable, but calling it by name isn’t a magic spell that forces someone to throw in the towel.
Pro: Everywhere it’s legal has seen a drastic reduction in the amount of violent drug-related crime, lower incarceration rates for non-violent offenders, and less abuse of prescription painkillers. Plus an incredible rise in quality when pot is regulated.
Con: Your straight edge friends who’ve never touched a joint in their lives start smoking regularly, since it’s legal. Your 30+ year old friends will start talking like junior highschoolers who just smoked oregano for the first time and think they’re high.
I appreciate that. I’m going to see if there’s anything published on/by them at my local library. (not sarcastic I love the library)
Restorative justice programs have been implemented in Indigenous Canadian communities with higher success than the existing contemporary justice system. With high recursion and incarceration rates for indigenous people, those programs address the root of crime without punishment while still holding perpetrators accountable. Most importantly, it’s done in a way that seeks to support rather than re-victimize those affected by crime.
I absolutely agree with the abolishionist movement but hadn’t known till now that it was large scale and worldwide. I agree with the changes being made locally without understanding the whole philosophy, basically. Thanks for giving me a good reason to learn more about it.
Every time someone says millipede I get the millipede song stuck in my head.
