It physically hurts me to block so many beautiful women but they are lying to me.

Yeah man... it was a good bit... it was a really good bit... really funny....
I’m sorry but poly ships are just inherently better

The concept of general intelligence is such bullshit. Everyone has valuable perspectives education is just exposing yourself to some of the perspectives people have found most valuable throughout time and teaching you how to make have a more considered and contextually informed perspective
I really hate when people mystify intelligence as some innate or supernatural ability rather than the willingness to read books and consider different perspectives. Anyone with enough time, training, and preparation could become a professor. Stop seeing knowledge as arcane rather than as a skill anyone can develop.
Darcy in his letter being like, "I suppose if you say so, your sister might have actually loved Bingley. I'm not sure though, it seems unlikely. I did look very hard at her for like, whole minutes at the ball. But whatever, it's already done and I still think I was right. Because your family sucks."
This morning I had like the lesbian equivalent of that part from the Brian David Gilbert cooking video about getting called Boss haha
I love how liberal criticisms of Marxism always boil down to a game of peekaboo where capital moves the worst forms of exploitation to different nonwhite countries and liberals can’t see it anymore and assume it disappeared. It’s falling for the most basic illusions that run throughout Marx’s entire body of work
“Nooooo the slavery in chocolate supply chains is just an exception to our totally fair and consensually free exchange of goods”
“Nooooo China is an evil socialist nation wdym our global capitalist economy depends on the exploitation of 300 million intraregional Chinese migrant workers who are barred from forming independent labor unions and arrested for demanding better living conditions”
“International trade is about nations exchanging goods based on comparative advantage. No I will not look into how that means one company shipping its products around the globe and different stages of the production process to countries where workers are more easily controlled and violently suppressed. It’s actually good because it means I can buy a temu haul every week”
It's always so weird to come down from the biology heavens to see what the average person believes about animals, plants, ecosystems, just the world around them. I don't even mean things that one simply doesn't know because they've never been told or things that are confusing, I'm talking about people who genuinely do not see insects as animals. What are you saying. Every time I see a crawling or fluttering little guy I know that little guy has motivations and drive to fulfill those motivations. There are gears turning in their head! They are perceiving this world and they are drawing conclusions, they are conscious. And yet it's still a whole thing if various bugs of the world feel pain or if they are simply Instinct Machines that are Not Truly Aware of Anything At All????? Help!!!!!! How can you look at a little guy and think he is just the macroscopic animal version of a virus
