It’s baffling that anyone reads their articles, let alone posts them as a basis for debate on a scientific topic.

Not a movie but The Handmaid’s Tale.

Definitely lichess. It makes it very obvious how much of desperate cash cow chesscom is.

Seems a lot of people share this view that somehow he’s for the little guy, despite quite clearly being for the opposite. It’s the same over the pond, there’s a paranoia held by many that the government is out to persecute the common people. Very strange on both sides, it’s almost Orwell levels of Newspeak.

You’re too funny

Dehumanising people makes it easy to hate and persecute them, and to blame them for a bunch of stuff which isn’t their fault. It really is a classic move with a rich history.

Overlooked doesn’t mean what you think it means.

Is the three musketeers really on par with the count? I’ve been meaning to read it for months but I always got the sense it would be disappointing.

All of HP Lovecraft’s stories.

I liked it until about half way through, it seemed to lose all the intrigue and then there was the weird bit about rape (if I remember correctly) at which point I gave up. Shame because it started well.

$DADDY

Why is that called a dog whistle?

I don’t understand why people do this. Surely if you lose your phone or it is stolen then you are without your phone, ID and bank card?

Sounds like textbook NPD, particularly his backstory.

You mention gender role stereotypes but then fall prey to one when you clearly think you should be served first because of your gender. If you don’t believe in equality and would rather stick to ancient and out of date traditions that’s fine but perhaps he is a bit more progressive and you are not well suited to each other.

It’s ok for a woman to pay, it’s ok for a woman to suggest a second venue, it’s ok for a woman to make the first move. It’s not 1950 any more.

Regardless, like others have mentioned, having this much to question after one date isn’t a good sign.

Wtf are Israel playing at. Other than genocide I mean.

I’m trying notally for notes right now, seems to be good enough for what I need (mainly checklists for shopping and very occasional notes) and has a widget. No idea how the widget compares to SN though

You sound the coolest if you say you use Arch btw (this is a meme now).

It’s pretty common to bond over dislikes. Besides, disliking something isn’t negative, and there’s nothing wrong with being negative even if it were.

Yeah I was a bit perplexed by the mention of it being the strong stuff but I think you’re right.
