not capitalizing the first word in a sentence makes it more obvious that there's a Reason i'm capitalizing other words in a sentence

Also, using proper capitalization and punctuation represents a different tone. My "voice" is different when writing this way.

for the sake of their careers, yes, but at the moment i think i'd prefer if they don't learn better communication skills until after they're in different jobs

A person has potential to learn that when they drop a word into the water, it carries currents from far upstream and will meet structures downstream they cannot see.

Recognizing that doesn’t stop the ripples, but it can change how one stands in the water.

Someone on here said that, contrary to the popular view, many Trump voters actually have high trust in institutions. They were so sure they could have their tantrum and elect lunatics promising to burn everything down, and someone would be there to keep them from going too far.

Is Donald Trump a Democratic secret agent? As concerns grow that Donald Trump is doing lasting damage to the Republican brand, some conservatives are speculating that the New Yorker could really be working for the other side.

maybe he failed in his mission in Trump 1 because too many Republicans were still trying to prevent him from destroying the GOP

Iran is a Porn War, evidenced by the US burning millions of dollars in munitions to get and air footage of blowing up Shahed-136s and the occasional girl’s school without any actual geopolitical objective beyond the transgressions themselves

A lot of people need coping skills that aren't 4chan humor and drugs.

A digital CAPTCHA verification window titled "Select all squares with PIPES" against a plain white background. The window contains a 3Γ—3 grid of numbered squares, mixing literal hardware, smoking pipes, and programming syntax.

i think it's pretty rad that being a shitty person makes you worse at ai honestly. could never have predicted this. like a goddamn rpg mechanic where you have to be pure of heart

Either Platner needs to disavow the people saying Nazi tattoos are cool, or the people saying Nazi tattoos are cool need to shun Platner for disagreeing with them.

The fact that neither of these things are happening implies an understanding about the reality of the situation between all involved.

"It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it," may as well be the motto of The Intercept

In other words, there is very little benefit in having accurate ideas about reality if you can't *do* anything with those ideas. If you're alienated and powerless, why *not* believe shit that makes you feel tingly, no matter how wild.

Only a rising class power has an interest in science.

i thought we were treating your apparent belief in penguin personhood as a joke. racism is a serious matter.

This is obviously deeply silly, but I like that MattY accidentally reveals that he's fine with Nazi tattoos.

Like, the actual argument he's making is that only squares and losers think it's uncool to have a Nazi tattoo.

what black and brown people are you suggesting were living on the Falkland Islands before British settlement there?

i'd call these dudes black and white with a little bit of orange, but i don't see much of any brown on them. i'd also push back on calling them "people".

"They are built on a large scale expropriation of the intellectual commons"

nah. an idea/pattern cannot be expropriated. because it can't be properly owned to begin with.
