starting to see the light <3

Hey bud, no need to attack someone’s intelligence. You can pick apart their argument with sources like a big kid but nobody logged in to see you be a butthead online today.

Bullshit asymmetry principle, been there done that. Name-calling serves a small but real purpose in the right contexts.

Literally false and you’re retarded.

They might even have 33.

I went the iPhone way as an experiment. The interface is nice, but no matter what you do, the phone is always listening and sending data to Apple, it doesn’t respect the microphone privacy settings in that way. GrapheneOS felt like death by a thousand cuts on my Pixel 6a, and yet I’ll be going back to graphene or lineage on a new phone because that’s how blatant the data-gathering is. Apple is getting shadier in general every year.

I think there would’ve been outrage, but I don’t think it would’ve started a war

agree to disagree lol

ITT: poe’s law and misunderstood intent. I was making fun of that supposed script-flipping line that genocide apologists were using last year, to be clear, not that it matters too much.

!go more extreme

Yeah nah, you don’t get to skip addressing my points(then and now) and then bitch about the same thing in the end, I didn’t even read past “actually made a point”

Lol go fuck yourself

dO yOu CoNsUmE hAm AsS?

Holy shit, you came back to write this? lol Amazing

A lot of the commenters here can’t legally consent to anything, then

I don’t understand what your point is in this context.

Alcohol impairment can be very messy. I know someone who had 1 and a half drinks, had no speech slurring or obvious signs of being black-out drunk, but did not remember a third of the night the next day because she’s a lightweight that’s drank a single-digit number of times in her life (she’d also eaten very little that day and had some recent sleep debt). I would not have guessed she was blackout drunk, she was just talking about her problems and was articulate the entire time I saw her. If I didn’t know she had been drinking, I can’t think of how I would’ve known short of some kind of specific motor function test that’s made to suss that out/harder than just sitting around, talking, and occasionally going to the restroom. She just looked a little tired. When we spoke later, she didn’t remember basically anything after a certain point (a couple of hours’ worth) and wondered if some vague flashes of memories had been dreams. It was rather surprising to me.

Tickle me elmo

talks about critical thinking skills keeps conveniently ignoring the same points then as now that present the real challenge to their argument addresses no brought-up points in genera

Kidsarefuckingstupid

I’m back on lemmy. Hello, dumbfuck. Feel stupid yet? As inflation increased, job markets weakened, the housing market continued to be open sewage, industries had massive layoffs, the middle class is smaller and has less power than ever, and the public began to be more amenable to fascism because of economic strife, you still think the economy was doing a-ok? Still think the economists who use different definitions in order to try to capture the spirit of the meaning after the fact precisely because the same metrics don’t always tell the same story might just maybe consider using that word now? No? Ok, we’ll just pretend the gatekeeping of that word had no ulterior political motive that bit us all in the ass. Head back in the sand.
