that's a beautiful thing. so, what moment were you all at your gayest? have you ever been THE gayest?

TimewornTraveler ,

that just sounds anti semitic

TimewornTraveler , (edited )

no, making blanket statements about a group of people based on the actions of their government is what sounds antisemitic. doubly so when the blanket statement is a blatant racial stereotype. like you can't just pretend that shit isn't real?? "Israelis are duplicitous"?? what the fuck, do you even know any Israelis? you're talking about my fucking friend asshole, and they dont approve of bibi either

TimewornTraveler ,

see above response. you're talking about my fucking friend, asshole.

TimewornTraveler ,

are you fucking kidding me?

fine, it's not anti Semitic. it's bigoted. is that better?? is this the hill you'll fucking die on?

this is basically like you saying "those blacks sure are lazy" and i said "excuse me, that's antisemitic". fine, i might be an idiot, but you're still a fucking racist asshole.

and you fucking ideological sheep reading this and playing along, caring more about politics and buzzwords than bigotry and hatred, or who the "real victim" is, you're all complicit in the bigotry and hatred too. wake the fuck up from your ideologies and see people for who they are

TimewornTraveler , (edited )

Bigot: "those blacks sure are lazy"

Idiot: "excuse me, that's antisemitic"

who would you rather be? cuz right now, you're acting like the first one

TimewornTraveler ,

I've been focusing on cooking more simply. the goal is fewer ingredients, less time and effort, more appreciation for simple flavor and quality ingredients

TimewornTraveler ,

the thing is, there's nothing stopping you from making that a reality

TimewornTraveler ,

I appreciate the summary and I think i get why people like sports ball.... but I really enjoy having a sports ball free space to talk about how absurd it is the way our society obsesses over it. on the internet, you're the weirdo, not me!

TimewornTraveler ,

salt is so much more than a spice. it's closer to a tool than an ingredient, like a fork or water

TimewornTraveler ,

on the internet? it's an on-going process, there is no "everything"

TimewornTraveler ,

well it convinced me, but I'm stupid and already made up my mind that I wanted to see a reply like that

TimewornTraveler ,

Cajons are fucking fun

I have a degree in philosophy and a degree in therapy and i promise the therapy part makes people way more uncomfortable than the philosophy part. I never really encountered weird attitudes about philosophy tbh. maybe it's how I own it. I very earnestly live like a Socrates - Diogenes hybrid and try to make smart stuff sound dumb and safe to engage the community neurons. and my general excitement about it, if my philosophy background comes up, it's from a place of passionate curiosity where we're already talking about interesting shit and me using the ph word just makes them think "oh we're about to get into it".

it could also be the context with which ppl get to know me is more receptive to philosophical conversations. I genuinely believe that therapy is literally just a modern philosophy practice.

it's true. remember even Athens functioned on the back of slavery

I didn't really have a cushion besides being American though. but that was enough

TimewornTraveler ,

wait, so the bullets did NOT say shit like "uwu whats this?"

TimewornTraveler ,

People who could be said to have "grown up with" those shows are definitely well into their 40s now lol

TimewornTraveler , (edited )

are those raw in the picture, or do they come out the oven looking like that?

is a tea biscuit the same as a cookie? is it the same as a biscuit? growing up we only called dog treats biscuits and my dog aint drink no tea

TimewornTraveler ,

very cool! looks so yummy

TimewornTraveler ,

yeah

TimewornTraveler ,

It sounds like your wife just likes to party! Cuz I can assure you Manilla is filled with shitty dive bars too haha. It's just also filled with amazing people who love to love and love to party. Filipinas rock! You two must have so much fun

TimewornTraveler ,

yes!! Live!!

TimewornTraveler ,

always a relevant XKCD

TimewornTraveler ,

I think there's far fewer genuine trolls than people claim. Someone being an asshole because they had a bad day? Not a troll. Someone deliberately pretending to be something they're not in order to rile up people for fun? Troll.

Most of the time, you're blocking your brethren on their worst days. Which is your right, but don't pretend that just cuz your brother is warty that they're a troll.

TimewornTraveler ,

SPORTS BALL!!!!!!!!!!!

Jesus, what is all this? skimming it looks like half of it is a treatise on epistemology. you're really going to focus on the data?

I've been on the fucking internet too, that's the data. I'm speaking from my own experience in the shared world we've been in, like everyone always does. we at least are clearly on shared spaces.

so like, unless the trolls are all in your DMs, can we skip the text walls about data and skepticism and uncertainty principles??

The rest of your reply seems fairly good spirited but I'm not eager to read it when we start off with paragraph after paragraph of "what data"

I'm not telling you not to block people, I would recommend you double check what I wrote next time before spouting off like that. I said something closer to "you shouldn't call them trolls". I dont see you engaging with that point anywhere....

Why is the human body so incredibly bad at responding to colds?

No cure so you gotta rest. Nose is stuffed so you gotta mouth breathe. Throat is dry from mouth breathing. Dry throat makes it painful to swallow. Pain keeps you from sleeping and recovering. Lack of sleep leads to worse symptoms like piercing headaches. Need to rest to get rid of the headaches. Headache and swallowing is too ...

TimewornTraveler ,

bad at it? you literally rest for a week then recover, as opposed to dying. your pretty fucking good at it. you just don't know how bad it could be

TimewornTraveler ,

younger partners are easier to control.

and less worldly experience means they won't notice their dull personality.

lack of maturity and life milestones to date similar age ranges.

over emphasis on bodily needs.

and i repeat, control.

TimewornTraveler ,

How would you hold power when the powers that be despise you? You think you can rule without military might, will of the people, and the approval of those who owm the resources of the land? The idea of benevolent dictator is broken because of the conditions that you would need to create to even get in power, and to stay in power, would not be benevolent.

TimewornTraveler ,

"we all"??? you clearly seem to lol

TimewornTraveler ,

I dunno, i just dont see it that way. im an organism who experiences the world from my own perspective but i understand nothing about that makes my perspective special. the only extra duty i have is to care for myself because i am myself and im the best one for the job, most of the time. maybe i did have ego death or something?? i dunno, i never thought about it as being the main character or side character. when i see the ilk of Elon Musk talking about things like NPCs it just blows my mind how ... "single-minded" people can be.

i see your mind and i know it is part of me but the paradox is that upon recognizing that your single-mindedness is part of me, i cease being single-minded

    why are you giving corpos more money

    TimewornTraveler , (edited )

    Cmon man, there's two kinds of recipes: one with exact measurements and precise instructions, usually written in metric with a lot of notes and contingencies... and then there's general guideline cheat sheets and refreshers, which you use when you already know how to cook it.

    If a recipe tells me "a couple spoonsful" and I don't know what to do, the problem is not the recipe, it's that I don't know what I'm doing.

    So what do you do? you learn. or I guess you could be like NileRed and watch food burn in front of your face because you don't want to deviate from the recipe. over and over again. but hopefully you'll learn to deviate soon.

    TimewornTraveler ,

    baking by volume is INSANE why would anyone do that?!

    i remember as a kid my nan telling me to not pack the flour too tightly in the cups or the measurement will be off. like why not just weigh the flour?!

    TimewornTraveler ,

    wow!

    very interesting, never noticed they were two different symbols

    TimewornTraveler ,

    4chan has furries

    TimewornTraveler ,

    thanks. what a weird headline for such an already weird event

    TimewornTraveler ,

    uwu polyester me daddy

    TimewornTraveler ,

    olive oil is still part of a heart healthy diet. that hasn't changed. you think the answer is gonna be exactly one magic potion?

    TimewornTraveler ,

    so they're all just cool with him continuing to deploy the military against his own population again and again, cool

    TimewornTraveler ,

    The justifications are just ways of shutting down empathy. You can stop feeling those things automatically if you work at closing them off. It's a great first step at becoming a psychopath, if you want.

    TimewornTraveler ,

    wait, so, he's actually going to face consequences? or is he getting reelected?

    TimewornTraveler ,

    remember when sitting republican congressmen turned the attempted assassination of Nancy Pelosi into a joke? like actually making jokes about it? they're so good at condemning political violence

    TimewornTraveler ,

    conclusión?

    TimewornTraveler ,

    people fucking love to do these gotchas against anyone for even fucking trying, don't they

    well congrats, you did it, you convinced all of us to compromise on our principles
