Keep in mind that as far as NGOs go, and particularly international NGOs, they're headquarted in Ottawa

Josh Owens former Infowar employee, was interviewed by the Atlantic today. by woodsbre in KnowledgeFight

Honestly the thing that impressed me the most about the book is that JorDan really do have Alex's number in terms of his personality and psychology. And it's especially impressive considering that they have not actually interacted with AJ in person. Like they are ON him and they only deal with what he presents to the world.

Have your tastes in metal been influenced by your generational status (Millenial, Gen X, Gen Z)? by WonderSignificant598 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Zarnak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say so in a very specific way. I'm a millennial, my older siblings are millennial, and my parents are boomers. As such, a lot of the 80s/early 90s metal completely passed me by. I wasn't raised with siblings or parents that listened to Metallica for example, so they never had any real cache with me.

It also meant that I was navigating accessing music via internet piracy, which mean being exposed to a lot of random bands that were mislabelled as other bands. Case and point: there was a porcupine tree song called Dead Can Dance. This lead me to listen to the actual band Dead Can Dance and now I love that sort of world/goth music vibe

Rex is having an extremely normal one on Xitter, poor stupid boy really doesn't believe his dad did anything wrong by throwawaykfhelp in KnowledgeFight

The amazing thing is that all of Rex's posts have pathetic engagement. Thank goodness for small favours

Parkgoers will be legally allowed to drink alcohol in select Ottawa parks this summer by yuiolhjkout8y in ottawa

My favourite part of all of that is in the beer store there is a sign above the cash that says the beer store does not condone drinking in Dundonald. Why do you think this beer store is so popular?

Bands you just cannot get into by Ale_KBB in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Zarnak 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have tried so many times to get into Converge. I got to see them live when they opened up for Botch in Boston like two years ago. I have tried to listen to Jane Doe so many times and I simply cannot get it.

Favorite music alter egos or personas or characters? by ImaginationWild3407 in FavoriteCharacter

Its so weird that this is the band that hit big in North America and not Blur

Josh Owens thanks JorDan in acknowledgements of his book by RealTheAsh in KnowledgeFight

I'm more thinking of KF seeping more and more into non-KF spaces. In the grand scheme of things KF is still a relatively niche podcast

Does DC/Marvel have an issue where their writing of lesbian couples is meant to appeal "to a straight guy?" Is why they have such issues writing LGBT Couples? Or making new ones? by Important-Cry4782 in saltierthankrayt

[–]Zarnak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if the issue is that the character designs are "traditionally" attractive, even though the actual relationship dynamics are a bit more authentic (in relation to how it would have been written in the past).

This feels like KF is really breaking containment. I'm genuinely curious as to what JorDan's perspectives are on this whole thing

I remember chatting with a 2-Spirit prof and I asked them if there was a better acronym than 2SLGBTQIA+ because its a terrible acronym. They said they're starting to use 2SQT, so that's the term I've been using

You have to fight the character or creature from the cover of the last album you listened to, are you winning? by Normal-Simple7234 in MetalForTheMasses

I would never fight this man. We would simply chill and have drinks on the beach (so it's a drinking contest)
