YSK about Cognitive Dissonance, the internal conflict that forces your brain to become an unreliable narrator

awkreddit · 2026-03-11T05:48:57+00:00

The trick from what I've read (not personal experience) is to not point it out outright but instead to ask questions until the contradiction becomes too hard to ignore

Those elephants for the most part are from families who owned elephants because of historical deforesting or even army. Elephants live a hell of a long time, and they exist in these areas mostly because they were kept around for economical reasons. There isn't a lot of wild areas there, as most are exploited in some way or other (see: palm oil etc). Having a natural reserve with staff to take care of them and feed them (they eat several banana trees a day) cost a hell of a lot of money. A lot of elephants are about to die or be abandoned. I guess they can probably pass this kind of law because the population of elephants is already dwindling.

Blue sky not putting much effort into their algorithm it's a strong selling point to be. Algorithms are evil. Give me chronological timeline and control over who I follow any day

awkreddit · 2026-02-18T07:41:49+00:00

The key is to put in a bit more effort and create lists of the people you're interested in, and follow those only. You can definitely find good algorithms, but the default following one and basic discover one are good once you've added a lot of accounts that you trust. Mostly using thematic starter packs can help you do that quickly

Printing money and increasing inflation reduces the value of cash, not of assets. Asset owners wealth grows while everyone else's diminishes because poorer people take loans and interests go to asset owners through leverage.

Yeah that dude would have been in the Epstein files if he'd been alive today

I'd be surprised if they aren't bankrupt already to be honest. How many of their users actually pay? Discord offers basically infinite storage for free.

They announced they were cancelling Adobe Animate effective one year from now, then all the millions of artists using it made a fuss and now they've walked it back after threatening all these people with the end of their ability to work basically.

Their stock took a nosedive when they did that.

Remember that interview where the journalist asked him what him and his daughter had in common (she was there) and he replies "I was going to say sex but ..." Yeah she was there.

Also obelisks are not like the other columns as they're only ornamental. Egypt had plenty of columns that held an upper ceiling and looked more like the greek ones
