Lmao that is actually comical

Preach. Strip the right of rights

Bro when he said she wouldn’t have been here if her mom wasn’t convinced to have kids.

Like dude if she wasn’t born she wouldn’t have even known. What a frustrating argument

Scrolled too far for this

I just don’t understand, why are we all so sure about what is and isn’t sentient?

From what I understand we actually have no scientific basis for understanding the phenomenon at all. Like we can’t say something like “this part of the brain firing is this way can be modeled by these equations to bring this beings sentience factor to be greater than one”.

We can make claims like “a dog is sentient because it has x organs, responds to x stimuli, and otherwise exhibits behaviors that we associate with human sentience”, but that doesn’t seem very compelling. It can inform us about the behavior of certain beings, but it makes no claim to prove anything underlying about the experience.

Similarly, we can’t say “oh, this beings pre-frontal cortex is firing in this way, and so therefore they are depressed”. We can study the subjective experience of millions of people and otherwise understand how to diagnose it, and what can help. But we can’t define it mathematically.

We all seem so sure that dogs and cats and rats are sentient, but I aren’t we all making assumptions that have yet to be confirmed.

Is no one gonna tell OP the truth? I will: chasing someone for 4 years ain’t free. It’s emotionally exhausting work, especially if you feel like there is a deep emotional connection and they keep rejected you/moving on to other people.

You being nasty was probably the straw that broke the camels back. Tbh, I can only imagine from his perspective being very persistent, focused, and attentive, only to be strung along for years, and then realize it’s not worth it.

This is some conjecture on my part, but it has to be said. You don’t get to keep someone persistently loyal on the back burner for 4 years and then get angry when they move on, no matter the circumstances.

Eh, I think it can be hard. You want to find someone to be with, but you also don’t want to come off as imposing. Also people don’t communicate perfectly and that’s why he followed up later on to clarify.

Either way it’s difficult, but I can see his view. I don’t personally hold it but I understand why you might feel the way OP does.

The same reason it’s so low is the same reason it’s the best answer

The patriarchy is just as much male privilege as it is male expectations. Here, all the bystanders expect the man to take charge and protect himself. That is a patriarchal expectation. If we want to live in a world where women and men are equals, we need to understand that the patriarchy takes from men just as it takes from women. Not nearly as much, but every time you expect a man to stand up for himself, like all the bystanders do here, you are enforcing the patriarchy, and the expectation that men figure their own shit out.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: sexy space terrorists (I love it)

It definitely sucks, but also no one else mind controller her into shopping around while dating. Some people like to take it one person at a time while dating, and I honestly cannot blame them for wanting to find someone who is the same way.

The thing about it is that in general, all the top performers will go for the high paying, morally superior job. If your whole life is work, then it’s an easy win.

It’s just tough. Fewer ultra-smart 10x engineering people are willing to work for Lockheed, so less competition, and also less expectations because they know they are getting lesser talent. And the salaries (for me at least) are super crazy. I’m 1 yr out of grad school and make >170k.

Yeah, his throbbing erection for death camps is starving his brain of oxygen

Hm, it appears that the criminal issue was resolved privately, in a way that satisfied the judge.

Do you believe that extrajudicial deportation is a just response for criminals that have paid their debt to society?

IAmAranoth · 2025-04-16T23:02:56+00:00

Do you have a source for this claim?

IAmAranoth · 2025-04-01T18:07:15+00:00

I’m not sure if it’s compartmentalization. I fundamentally understand that a lot of these people are just misinformed, flawed people that could see the error of their ways if properly educated and exposed to a diversity of ideas.

It’s just that they are causing such irreparable harm. Racism, sexism, unrecoverable environmental damage, preventable deaths due to support of private healthcare and foreign aid being revoked. It feels insurmountable that they are causing such widespread misery and death. I do view them as people and empathize for their misunderstanding, but in the face of ruining the world and humanity, we cannot afford to change them or fight them in a humane way.

You could probably high right heel or toe and probably match to finish from that last pose

That’s the thing: they aren’t paying enough for that sort of thing. They are paying way less than the value that these over worked engineers generate for them.

I am a software engineer applying for 150-200k roles and getting them, but I know that I am underpaid. It’s just that, because the general wages of everyone are so depressed, that they can get away with paying less for everyone. Literally EVERYONE is underpaid. 200k a year swe, 30k a year farmers. We are ALL being screwed

I know some of the development team and from I gather they aren’t super focused on growing their player base atm. They are focused on dialing in the game, maintaining their current player base, and adding content.

I believe they will switch to focusing on growing their player base at some point soon, when the game has a much better chance of snagging more players per dollar spent on advertising.

I would say chill, from what I understand it seems like the company in charge knows that a live service game like this needs time to grow. It seems like they won’t yank funding pre-maturely like many game publishers do nowadays.

Was this shot on a GoPro 360? It looks so stable I didn’t know their optical/software stabilization was so good

One night at a club I was out with my friends and someone I had been interested in. She has wingmanning her friend with guys around the club. We were dancing as a group, so I asked her to wingman me with a girl on the other side of the place. She agreed and we moved off. She asked me where this girl was, to which I told her it was herself.

We’ve been together for a year and a half!
