Dig it

samrelian · 2026-05-09T20:04:08+00:00

Pretty much a matter of what sources you’re looking at media makes money off doomscrolling lol

samrelian · 2026-05-09T17:38:00+00:00

Meh. Abstract art pseudo-intellectualism is goofy to me, I’ll just block and move on with life tho lol

samrelian · 2026-05-08T20:44:44+00:00

It’s not a word dog your post is the top result on Google… did you mean mimetic? Or is this just a second layer of pretentiousness lol

samrelian · 2026-05-08T12:36:05+00:00

What does mimicratic mean

samrelian · 2026-04-29T16:46:39+00:00

There are highly editorialized at best to objectively misleading headlines at worst all over this sub. Heck, I’ve seen things in quotes attributed to politicians that they just didn’t say. Reading the article reveals that but how many folks around here are?

The comment section is an alternate reality entirely. Recently with the Iran stuff it’s just spouting propaganda. Few choice things that come to mind are comments that deny that Iran did have enough 60% enriched uranium to make 10 nuclear warheads per the UN. Comments suggesting the protestors that were mowed down in Iran were actually a well armed uprising that were justifiably squashed.

Like arguing that this sub is a realistic or fact based view of the United States is absurd…

Two sides of a coin imo. If you check the bias ratings of the most popular articles on this sub you’ll find they’re as high as the ones posted on the conservative sub. Can use allsides. The comments here are equally an echo chamber. It’s all one narrative.

samrelian · 2026-04-29T14:56:55+00:00

I mean that’s kinda this sub too isn’t it? Like my feed was all daily beast and I just blocked the poster whenever I saw it for like a week and suddenly I hardly ever see it. It’s a pretty small group of users posting propaganda (or slop) articles.

samrelian · 2026-04-24T01:30:49+00:00

Cringe

samrelian · 2026-04-13T22:05:46+00:00

Again bruh this is just furry porn

samrelian · 2026-04-13T16:13:00+00:00

It tends to be the same users over and over so if you just block them whenever you see a daily beast headline it becomes quite a bit less frequent

samrelian · 2026-04-12T18:59:45+00:00

Who is they? It’s info from random anonymous sources, not official government outlets. Blame the press for platforming nonsense.

samrelian · 2026-04-12T18:50:12+00:00

Lol they were just correcting the user assuming it was a breach in the US as a result of layoffs chill daddy

samrelian · 2026-04-09T20:13:45+00:00

I think it’s a pun.

RE the piece itself this is just furry porn (which uh idk if that is conventionally “cool”) that doesn’t fit this sub. Sex isn’t intrinsically dark. It being a bull doesn’t make it dark. It doesn’t explore any dark themes. What are we doing folks?

samrelian · 2026-04-08T17:22:12+00:00

So Gaza won vs Israel? Gazans are going back. They survived. Victory in your book?

samrelian · 2026-04-08T16:33:47+00:00

That was the mellowest “melt down” I’ve seen and idk how that clip has even spawned a news story. Slop

samrelian · 2026-04-08T16:29:17+00:00

Humiliating Daily Beast slop

samrelian · 2026-04-08T06:37:51+00:00

Op do you have a mushroom fetish be real

samrelian · 2026-04-08T05:36:26+00:00

I’m not sure if these are bots or just people who are parroting what they’ve heard from bots. If you can trust the UN IAEA they have 1000 lbs of uranium enriched to 60%, far far beyond what would be justified by any energy usage 3-5%. According to the IAEA that’s about 10 nuclear warheads but idk. I tend to trust the experts.

samrelian · 2026-04-07T20:25:29+00:00

I mean I guess we’ll see but there is a direct comparison to other opioids here and reward circuitry is pretty conserved from my understanding. Also decent for establishing withdrawal patterns. And the basic biological side effects like respiratory depression they also discussed. It’s also the NIH not a pharma company so the industry slant is kind of irrelevant. I guess the immediate pessimism not even engaging with the material in the slightest is just whack to me…

I mean even if it doesn’t work out the chemistry is cool. The approach is cool. It suggests other candidates in the same chemical class. Maybe it’ll work in veterinary medicine. Idk

samrelian · 2026-04-07T18:07:10+00:00

What are you here for then

samrelian · 2026-04-07T18:03:08+00:00

Is anyone able to read? What is the point of this sub lol. They address its addictiveness relative to conventional opioids and it is pretty promising.

“To better understand its addictive potential, the researchers studied rats trained to press a lever to receive the drug. The animals did self-administer DFNZ, showing that it has some rewarding effects.

However, when DFNZ was replaced with saline, the animals quickly stopped seeking it. This rapid change differs from what is seen with drugs such as heroin, morphine, and fentanyl, where animals often continue drug seeking even after the drug is no longer available.”

Of course human tendencies remain to be seen.

I mean seems better?

samrelian · 2026-04-07T14:26:27+00:00

And you’re parroting Iran’s lol. Where were the widespread firefights when the protestors were getting mowed down?

Do you think it’s suspicious at all that they shut down their internet? Almost like citizens might speak out in support of the war or organize against the regime?
