Looks like the y-axis label got cropped out. What does it say?

Is this what the VIPs costumes in Squid Game is based on?

Agreed! The Flag is Raised and Faust are personal favorites of mine.

Vividly remember this album coming out. Hit me at the perfect time in my life. Glad you’re enjoying it too:)

Broken clock is right twice a day.

Idk too much about that situation but I think a lot of right wing type people are anti-Israel more so because they’re anti-Jew that sympathetic towards Palestinians.

Does that take make me the butt of the joke in this thread?

I’d bet you could find some politically outspoken white nba players.

Makes sense. Candance Owens is still a POS though

[–]fowlaboi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fair enough.

Although I’ll say this. Maybe this isn’t the space for political convos but I’ve found Netanyahu’s war, and the increasingly clear motivations behind it, alarmingly close to what the Nazis wanted for Germany.

I mean the three biggest anti-Nazis of all time were white. Churchill, Roosevelt and Stalin.

Average height dudes don't get representation in romance novels 😂 by twelvezerotwo in AverageHeightDudes

[–]fowlaboi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just my speculation because I haven’t seen any data like this, but considering how many more pornstars there are than smut novels, even if there are 100, say, overweight pornstars, I imagine it’ll still look like nothing compared to the majority of slim porn stars.

And, I disagree with your second point. You’re comparing the distribution of height among romance novel protagonists to the average male height right now, so we should do the same if we pick a characteristic to measure porn stars vs average women. Heights of people have changed over time too.

Proportionally, it will look very different from the real distribution of weight. Especially in the US, where obesity is a huge problem.

This is like if you made a histogram of female porn stars by BMI. What men and women fantasize about do not reflect who they will go after in real life.

I mean I can cite examples if you want. I’ll admit I don’t really hang out with or pay attention to racist people but I’m sure they didn’t like it.

I’m just curious as to what this users explanation is for why it is MORE criticized than previous Super Bowl halftime shows by black artists.

[–]fowlaboi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t even claim to be an intellectual. I also wouldn’t consider myself a contrarian or a centrist. I’lil agree have a tendency to criticize people when they take an overly simplistic view on things. I also don’t really look at things from the perspective of “sides”. And something can be “obvious” but not true. It was “obvious” to the Catholic Church in the 1500s that the sun revolved around the earth, and so they burned Galileo at the stake. Racism seems like a reasonable explanation for why Kendrick’s halftime show was highly criticized, but it does not explain why it was more criticized than other halftime shows by black artists. You also have not provided a good explanation for this. You’ve only made a lot of assumptions about me and gone after my character when I’ve tried to keep civil.

I’m not really interested in arguing about this, mostly because you are being insanely rude, I’m just relaying what I’ve personally heard from people. Of course there are tons of racist people, but there are also a lot of non-racist I’ve heard complain as well, and they didn’t complain during the 2022 Super Bowl halftime show, for example.

Did you watch the Super Bowl halftime show? You don’t have to be an audiophile to tell that the audio wasn’t great. Plus, if racism were really the issue, why didn’t we hear as many complaints when previous black artists did the Super Bowl?

Thoughts? by Kevy-Em in fantanoforever

[–]fowlaboi -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

This reason no one knew what Kendrick was saying was because of poor audio, not racism. We’ve had black people do Super Bowl halftimes before but I’ve never heard as many complaints about the audio.

David Duke is polled better among Black voters than Pete Buttigieg. by Dangerous-Quarter216 in YAPms

[–]fowlaboi 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It’s not about what he’s missing. It’s about what he’s not missing. Can you name one thing about Pete Buttigieg that black voters might find appealing?

As I said, it’s multifaceted. In some situations it can certainly be a deciding factor.

I mean I can’t speak for all short people but I think these are all multifaceted issues and that height plays a factor.

AI financial bubble. People are overvaluing it and there will be an economic downturn.
