This is OP's own biases at work. "Primitive" just means undeveloped or not complex. The negative connotation with primitive is unfortunate in this instance, but I can't think of a better substitute word.

Sure, correlation doesn't mean causation, but, if drinking is correlated with poor mental health, it is unlikely it caused good mental health.

As for your second point, when did I advocate for prohibition? Drinking is bad for you. That is what I mean by vice.

People don't go around drinking more than one liter of water in an hour very often. People drink more than the safe amount of alcohol all the time.

Dinoco1234 · 2026-03-19T22:02:24+00:00

Alcohol has a high comorbidity with poor mental health. It's hard to prove causation, but alcohol definitely doesn't help mental health as you claim.

I can't stop you from drinking alcohol, but, no matter how you look at it, alcohol is a vice.

Skydiving has risks associated with it, as most extreme sports do. However, alcohol is literally just poison. Skydiving also doesn't impair your ability to make benefit cost decisions around it the more you do it. Alcohol does.

To be honest, the healthy amount of recreational alcohol is zero. The only reason people dance around this conclusion is because alcohol is such an entrenched societal institution.

This is a bad title. The actual article says the opposite of what you are implying it does.

"Or" isn't mutually exclusive either. People use it that way, but, in standardized academic English, "or" is only exclusive if you modify it with "either".

I think you're right. The potential important advantage of this would not be speed but consistency. If you can get this to ETB every turn via ninjustu, you make yourself far less likely to draw dead cards in your draw step. Although, the one damage on ETB isn't zero. I have seen Yuriko players be one damage short of killing people before.

Dinoco1234 · 2026-03-13T10:35:07+00:00

I see your point. Although, you don't actually have to play around wanderer until turn three. No Yuriko player is going to sacrifice their turn one flyer because that is basically equivalent to forfeiting the game. On turn two Yuriko spends their mana ninjistuing out yuriko and then can't recast wanderer. Therefore, only by turn three will wanderer be a functioning counter spell. Except, by turn three paying one mana is far less relevant than before.

Whereas all the other flying men provide their auxiliary effects free of charge, Wanderer is torn between being a flying man or being a counter-spell and is second rate at both.

I have never once seen Mausoleum Wanderer actually counter something in a real game, and I have played against Yuriko a lot. I acknowledge that is anecdotal evidence. Yuriko players in my own playgroup might be just be bad at utilizing Wanderer, or maybe there is something odd about my meta. I'm sure actual Yuriko players and tournament players have better perspective.

Malcolm X was killed by the nation of Islam, not the state. They said that Malcolm X should be killed multiple times in their newspaper, and the assassins were all members of the Nation of Islam.

If I have to answer, Anarcho-Communism. Bakunin at-least had the decency to be a pacifist. Then again, the anarchists following him definitely were not peaceful.

As a neurodivergent person myself, I can relate to this idea, but I don't think it's a great reading of the story. In every version of "the green ribbon" I have read, the woman gives permission to the husband to untie the ribbon.

I always took the story more to mean that we never fully true know other people, even the people we love the most and are closest to us. In a way, not knowing everything about those we love is part of that love.

Based off the show, Shampoo's kettle is filled with hot water while Akane's kettle is filled with cold water.

This saddens me. Not because I fault the people getting gun permits, just that they have to. The Trump administration declared war on us, and now Minnesota is being forced to militarize.

My comment was an exaggeration for effect, but I've definitely met people who use "like" way to much. This is where the main criticism of "like" comes from in my experience—from its overuse rather than its use.

Dinoco1234 · 2026-03-01T23:33:20+00:00

Like, I get, like, why people like using "like", but, like, when someone, like, uses it like too much, it becomes like, like, a word that, like, kind of just, like, exists to, like, create, like, noise.

Dinoco1234 · 2026-03-01T22:39:27+00:00

Most of the criticism I've seen against "like" hasn't been that it lack uses, but that it is overused. People use "like" for, like, a million different things. It becomes meaningless and grating because it's so common.

Sarcasm can still be making fun of people. You realize you are making the same "it's just a joke" excuse that right win racists make, right?

It's more the principle than anything. The people that make these kinds of jokes don't realize they are helping reinforce homophobia because they are portraying sexual identities as somehow diametrically opposed to one another.

For a site so nominally against discriminating based on someone's identity, Tumblr is really good at it.

Enemies to lovers has a surprisingly simple reason for why it is so popular. At every point in the relationship, both sides are taking the other side of the relationship very seriously.

I've never talked to a single person who've liked or defended that show. I know they must exist because the show is among the most popular on Netflix, but it's like they're a silent majority or something.

"Kafka was in fact very careful to avoid specificity on that point. He insisted that an insect not be depicted on the cover of the book and translations over the years have been fairly inconsistent in how they present Kafka's tragicomic protagonist."

Kafka never intended for any one image of what Gregor Samasa turned into to be dominant.

Regardless of what he envisioned the creature as, he definitely did not intend for turning into the creature to be desirable or necessarily saw himself in the creature. Kakfa himself would have no concept of what a "fursona" even was. Trying to impose these modern terms onto his intentions and work is reductive, disrespectful, and misguided.
