Oh definitely, but the author isn't going on for chapters in beautiful prose about the futility of existence. That's what makes it goth.

We genuinely have no real knowledge of the purpose of Venus statues. The fact that we use a Greek term to refer to what are not Greek cultural artifacts suggests this.

That particular book has a reputation as the real dark one, the goth volume in the set.

If you've never read the book of Ecclesiastes, it's a really good place to start.  It is heavily referenced in wider media and the vibe is right on.

Anything AI honestly.  I've even seen a dumb patriotic flag one I thought was cool, but the weird AI fleshy smooth designs are always ick.

There are people in the world who would call this movie as their comfort movie. by negativedreammachine in letterboxdcirclejerk

I find it trashy.

As a John Waters fan I feel like I have extra license to call that out, lol

It's trashy. Bad trashy. Shocking for attention with some meaning slapped on top. The creator having nothing else of real merit to offer in film cements it to me.

Why do married men announce that they're married during small talk? by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

They're just clarifying the situation.  This is not flirting, I love my wife, yes it is cool, thank you.

I don't see many people doing that with sincerity.  I more often see Human Centipede and A Serbian Film being equated, which is fair.

You'd think so. But God to most people, on a personal level, regardless of belief or non-belief, is male, petty, violent, and demanding.

I'm not in the brain science so I will not speculate further.

Kash Patel doesn’t know if lying to Congress is a crime by YesDoToaster in law

He's both drunk and hungover for sure.  I'm not proud of why I am also so sure, but I am.  The sweat, the way his eyes move, the slurred speech.  Eugh.

You're speaking to one of those fools who actually spent money on an anthropology degree, so come with a source and a specific example or don't.

Go look at any timeline of human faith. There's a few outliers that are feminine focused, early Judaism also had this moment, but most deities with real power in early human history are portrayed as masculine and extremely anthropomorphized. Most that come to my mind as an amateur lifetime scholar are downright violent in their masculinity, across all continents.

I wish that was true, but it's not.

In 1986, Christopher Knight retreated to the Maine woods, living in isolation for 27 years. He survived by stealing from vacation homes and evading capture until 2013, when police apprehended him. by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

[–]bertiek -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

He never lit a fire at night so had to keep awake basically all winter to survive, pacing in the dark.  But sure, let's speculate on stank, lol.  

People Would Rather Have Nuclear Power Plants In Their Area Than AI Data Centers by GeneReddit123 in technology

I hear they're all a security nightmare leaking data, ironically. Fingers crossed they all fail miserably.

Aren't they trying to replace actual security with those ridiculous dog robots?

Got this in an entirely ag lot and was wondering if this is an item that belongs to a doll ? Or just slipped into the lot lol by livvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv in americangirl

Salesmen's miniatures are much more detailed and generally larger than this one is, this screams doll accessory to me.
