  • People are very selective about who to empathize with. Not everyone, but enough people. I feel like almost all of my problems stem from that, somewhere down the line.

  • No fucking clue. I think the fact that it's so baffling is part of what's turned it into a meme.

  • Half the reels I've seen on Instagram in the past have a copy pasted description that starts with "Japan is turning footsteps into electricity!" Regardless of the content of the reel. It's on everything from make-up tutorials and videos of cute animals, to videos about Israel's human rights abuses.

  • You were responding to

    I think the term "cheating" inherently means that the person not involved isn't fine with it.

  • "I think the term "cheating" inherently means that the person not involved isn't fine with it. "

    Is precisely correct.

    Edit: in clarification. If your stated, mutually agreed upon, boundaries aren't being broken then you aren't being cheated on. If you're ok with your partner fucking other people, but told them you aren't for some reason, then I guess them fucking someone else would technically be cheating. But you should really learn how to accurately describe your boundaries with your partner.

  • You're swapping issues. Cheating is when you break the mutually agreed upon terms of a relationship via sex. To determine if something is cheating one must examine the boundaries of the person not involved in the sex.

    The consent of the people involved in the sex is typically examined to determine if the event classified as Rape/SA, not to determine if the event is classified as cheating.

  • Leaves me wondering if this indicates some kind of biochemical/neurological difference, or just like sociological differences. Like are women processing vision differently from men, or is this happening just because women are more worried about getting attacked.

  • I used to have that problem. It was an ongoing problem for pretty much my entire teenage years through the first half of my twenties. Then I started estrogen and suddenly I was crying basically every day, even at dumb stuff. That took a couple of years to even out, and now I cry easily, but not at the drop of a hat.

    I don't know if an androgenic endocrine profile standing between me and the ability to cry, or if becoming myself unlocked that ability. Either way, being able to cry when I need to has been incredibly cathartic.

  • Date night and a sleepover with one partner, then date night with my nesting partner on Sunday!

  • Is this how it works? I would be shocked if this was actually how it works.

  • Oh yeah they've definitely been infiltrating. This has been pretty obvious, atleast since Fetterman started pulling his bullshit.

  • Listen, I'm not here to defend the Democrats. But if you aren't willing to do the simplest, easiest possible form of resistance: voting against the people building new concentration camps and passing bills that hurt vulnerable people. You're entirely useless in this conflict.

    If that's the only thing you do then you're almost useless in this conflictbb

  • Wow. Yeah that person's a dumbass.

  • Yeah, and trans people are amongst those they want to kill.

  • Glad they waited until it's borderline impossible to actually get it passed into law. /S

  • I don't think I've seen a single person saying that. Plenty saying that you should vote when mid-terms roll around, but none saying that you shouldn't be doing anything before or after.

  • Not to mention, LLMs are very resource intensive to run. They slurp up obscene amounts of electricity and water. That's kind of a problem for a planet that's already getting boiled.

  • A lot of languages sure, but not the language the comic is written in.

    I didn't realize it was one character though. I thought it was just double < and > I guess that does make it seem less likely to be an intentional dog whistle.

  • Saying something malicious while making it look normal is kinda the whole point of dog whistles. How are we to tell if <

    <this>

    > is benign, or just (((this))) with an extra layer of obfuscation?
