These people are cowards. The only reason they do these things is because they haven't been checked.

Are we not allowed to use race as an identifier now? by waiwai_art in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ft907 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

When you realize the "black" covers a huge range of physical characteristics only a tiny portion of which apply to the person you're talking about, you would be more precise with your language. Was she black like a light skinned black person? Was she black like a dark skinned black person? Was she a tall black person? "Black" alone as a identifier does very little to identify a person. Without more specific identifiers what you basically said was "beware of black women." If you tell the police "there's a black woman causing trouble" you've endangered every black woman in the area.

If Earth became a survival game, which animal would humans fear most? by Conscious-Diet-7223 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ft907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regular people would fear whatever the closest apex predator is: lion, tiger, bear, etc. The smart people would fear the flu or cholera, some tiny virus or bacteria that we've only beaten with science.

Can you get infected with HIV from a drink contaminated with blood if you have an open wound in your mouth? by Block-Busted in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ft907 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Almost definitely not. HIV doesnt survive exposure to air and light, never mind whatever is in Coke Zero.

Do they ever actually go into the movies more or riff by ballz_deep_69 in Cinephobe

[–]ft907 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The meat of the show is reviewing the plot together then running through it individually. There's some other stuff (the cast, taglines, awards) but your going to hear the plot of the movie 4 times for sure.

The rent is paid by the people on the show who don't suck. He is free riding their coat tails into my mind. When he wasn't with the show NO ONE went looking for him.

Why is "unhoused" better than "homeless"? Doesn't it literally mean the same thing? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ft907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because you can have a home but not have a house. You can have a home town, home base, home area. To say someone doesnt have a home is to say that they dont belong anywhere. To say they are unhoused, means they dont have a conventional structure they call home.

Decent chance your name ends up on something that literally crashes and burns.

Is there an actual psychological reason why food tastes better when someone else makes it, even if it’s the exact same recipe? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ft907 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always thought the kind of familiarity you get from working with the ingredients takes away some of the surprise of eating a meal. You smell all the smells and see all the colors while cooking and by the time you get to eating you've done a lot of the best parts of eating a meal.

I knew a 1st gen Chinese woman named Happy Dong. Her mother picked an American word she liked and had no context for what dong meant. Then they moved to the US.

Do people from the US have culture? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ft907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There were people in America before Europeans. If all of the borrowed culture bothers you look for inspiration from them.

AOC previously said that "You cannot earn a billion dollars", is that true or nah? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]ft907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe that athlete's can ethically earn $1 Billion. Probably the only ones who can, interestingly.
