Shakespeare had no problem with singular they, by the way.
I also found it natural to use before I had a concept of those existing outside the gender binary. "Who left their umbrella?"
Mentioning semantic shift here doesn't seem to do anything but make me imagine you are grandpa Simpson yelling at passing clouds.
In the bottom right hand corner, you can see the words "tribute to a comic by BORS". The comic artist's website has this to say about this comic: "Tribute to that famous and cool comic by BORS".
Its fine I guess? I think he should have linked to Matt Bors's website (which is easily found on google) but whatever. It is a low effort MS paint comic, after all.
They're just admitting that they think that the folk who put their food on the shelves, answer phones for them and clean the facilities don't deserve a good life.
They have no problem being served by capitalism's underclass.
jesus christ stop giving Ye attention. That means you, reader. Stop clicking on these articles.
One of the symptoms of bipolar disorder is "delusions of grandeur".
...But Ye is rich as fuck, and everyone keeps giving him attention, even if it's just to gawk at him. Everyone is feeding his neurosis.
This disease unravels people. It changes their personality. It robs them of their ability to sleep. It rewrites their memories. **If ** (with emphasis on "if") there is good in Ye we might never see it, because in order for him to truly get help he has to see himself as the problem.
Stop giving clicks to this mentally ill Nazi fuck, and stop giving clicks to people who platform him. Piers Morgan is a vulture.

We can reject the null hypothesis that you are not a nerd at significance $\alpha < 0.001$.
oh wait, shit let me run that again, my data frame is full of NA somehow, again.
NOAA will be dismantled first (or they will be forced to massage these numbers somehow)
Toss a coin to ur ~~witcher~~ climate scientist employed in the public sector providing publically available datasets
Thanks for the link.
I forgot how frustrating these people are. I'd love to read these comments but they're filled with sentences like:
I take seriously radical animal-suffering-is-bad-ism[1], but we would only save a small portion of animals by trading ourselves off 1-for-1 against animal eaters, and just convincing one of them to go vegan would prevent at least as many torturous animal lives in expectation, while being legal.
Just say "I think persuading people to become vegan is better than killing them"?
Why do you need to put a little footnote[1] to some literal fiction someone wrote about human suffering to make a point?
Screw it, here's that footnote:
For a valid analogy between how bad this is in my morality and something that would be equally bad in a human-focused morality, you can imagine being born into a world with widespread human factory farms. Or the slaughter and slavery of human-like orcs, in case of this EY fiction [link omitted].
Exqueeze me? You have to resort to some shit somebody made up to talk about human exploitation?
I didn’t check the instance rules
Mistakes happen, but it is on you.
I don’t care enough to beg for readmission.
But you do care enough to type words and words and words somewhere else, no?
I’m just pointing out that they are being weird
I politely disagree. What you're viewing as mechanical censorship is just community curation to them. Part of "power tripping" implies they are abusing power, and I don't see them preventing you from participating with anything you appreciate. There's plenty of other AI communities on lemmy.
In summary, a comic:
There are no checks whatsoever, no email or phone number required, no verification options—it just hands you an account for a 99-year-old, with full access to all chat features. (It took maybe five clicks from having no account to being able to play Blood & Gore.)
Come on now Kotaku. I was a kid once on the internet. I lied about my age once to sign up for Neopets, which had text forums, private messages and user-created pages. You could even use HTML and hotlink images. It really wasn't a big deal because my parents paid attention to what I did online, and the audience of the website was just children or people who wanted to play a simple game.
My mom ended up playing it, so she must have known I lied about my age to get access. She had hella neopoints.
For content marked 17+, you do need to verify your age with documentation
WHY IS THERE CONTENT FOR 17+ ON ROBLOX? Isn't this the TRUE child safety problem? Why do this at all? Why attract people looking for 17+ content on a platform for children??? I read that Hindenburg report, the entire platform is a mess. This company deserves to fail and those investors deserve to be left holding the bag.
Are you a single person or a group of people? Do you have any credentials that you'd like to share that might give some context to your research?
Where is the quote in your bio from?
I think they should be public. They’re already accessible for mbin posts and anyone administrating a lemmy instance. It should be clear to all users that their votes are already not private.
Someone could make a lemmy instance just to get voting behavior and make a website with cool graphs and stuff today and the only thing that could stop them is defederation. If Lemmy gets popular, this is just an inevitability.
Imagine if a large instance decided to do that today. Imagine if lemmy.world released lemmy.world/votes. Would people defederate just for that? Remember: Mbin already displays scores and I don’t think anyone has defederated over it.
Might as well put it on the interface so everyone understands it isn’t private. Rip off the bandaid.
Out of curiosity, what was your motivation for posting this?
