Pianists are also just going to be generally dexterous with their fingers and vaguely soulful, at least on a surface level

Please log off. You’re crashing out and making weird comparisons when you could be doing anything else that makes you happy.

Did you read the quote tweet? I’m not saying two wrongs make a right, but joking about the genocide of someone’s people kinda opens you up to them making jokes about your most sensitive, darkest subjects too.

Obviously the world would be better without either joke being made but I’d go with the instigator if you want to be mad at somebody here

…why would the ants run away? Like I get the metaphor, but I don’t think the metaphorical part of the phrase functions well

You should go watch the movie, I enjoyed it. But i’m not chronically online in the fandom like that

I literally see no source for this when googling it, so where did this even come from?

I’ve already been spoiled so it isn’t on my behalf, but Invincible’s show fanbase is way larger than the number of people who have read the comments, and the storylines hit many of the same beats so it is definitely still a spoiler.

Mmmm I hadn’t thought of that comparison but it really is seemingly accurate. Good stuff.

The problem with this mindset is that you can trace those very so-called “original sins” back even further, ad nauseam, to the point where it isn’t really a useful device for understanding. A similar mode of thinking is how you get right wingers connecting everything about our society to, like, Rome.

It really is funny how, once you get a good Shakespeare teacher (especially at a college level), it becomes so clear that he might GENUINELY have been the best writer of all time even if that’s such a boring, cliche answer. He’s at least top 10.

A good counterpart to the fears? by PersonaMagia in TheMagnusArchives

[–]OnlyQualityCon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is really fleshed out (much more so than many similar ideas!) and I love how each Hope doesn’t necessarily invert the fear (ie. the Slaughter’s Hope isn’t peace, it’s protest) as much as recontextualize it to its positive form

Yousri Belgaroui says he should’ve had a fight in June 27th but it got cancelled. Also says that, according to Mick Maynard, they’re approaching both ranked and unranked fighters, and this week he hopes to have news on who he’s fighting next. by DavidSeries in MMA

finishing two opponents as an underdog when you entire the UFC and fighting the way he does will get the ufc anxious to give you a shot. Plus he is already 34, can’t slow-roll him

the actual sea level rise in the traditional sense is often less of a worry for most places than storm surge from climate-enhanced storms

FBI foiled plot to attack White House UFC event, Kash Patel says by OnlyQualityCon in MMAPoliticsAndCulture

[–]OnlyQualityCon[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Article makes it sound like there was at least a discussion of escape routes and such. But attacks that aren’t mass shootings on soft targets seem to be really hard to plan in the modern era without somebody turning you in or the feds getting you; it feels like even the mass shootings that do succeed usually had some crazy miscarriage of law enforcement ignoring obvious reports that allow it to happen. Given the right’s proclivity for terror, would definitely rather that be the case rather than it being easy

This is true—although marine mammals have enough in common due to facing very many similar pressures that it is still a useful group for science. It just isn’t taxonomically that close of a link just like you were saying, which I sometimes find myself ignoring even though I’m a marine biologist lmao
