@LexYeen It was a tactic used by feds to break up leftist groups in the 1950s. They would infiltrate leftist groups and accuse others of being cops.

The idea is that leftists have a tendency to divide on strict ideological lines, rejecting people for "wearing the wrong jacket". In this case a channer was going around accusing people of being trolls.

Polymath means you date a lot of different maths

When people use the term snowflake unironically, just remember they're quoting Fight Club, a satire written by a gay man about how male fragility causes men to destroy themselves, resent society and become radicalized. and that Tyler Durden isnt the hero but a personification of the main character's deep insecurities, and that his snowflake speech is a dig at how fascists use dehumanizing language to breed loyalty from insecure people.

this is why i dread every discourse where things are not cookie cutter laid out for us critically, we have engrained a society and cultural in which the main modal form of storytelling is people who are me and my friends that are good and people who are not my friend and are not me are bad. i cant believe im saying this but joker, a movie that is not even that fucking smart or original created incel discourse because the main character isnt a reliable protagonist

I think the wildest thing a cis person ever said to me about being trans is that I was just transitioning to fit in.

"Hi, everybody, I'm going to make myself less conspicuous by making drastic changes to my social, legal, and medical status. Hope that's ok!"

A friend reminds me that Judaism exists in the Pokemon Universe (Meowth mentions Yom Kippur at one point in a song, apparently.) But it's also important to note that Pokemon exist in this, the Jewish Universe.

"Millenials are killing [x]" is just an inflammatory way to observe that society is changing and people aren't doing stuff they used to do a lot of.

is this a bug? yes, but it's also very funny and confusing when it happens, so it's fine

Papyrus? Comic Sans? Gill Sans is truly the most evil font, because it was created by a very bad man.

So I figured out what ratio 8.5:11 is in (0.772...), used that number to make the crop, then scaled the image to occupy the entire space of the cover.

Normally, I love Krita, but the crop tool only having units in pixels is driving me bonkers. How do you do print work based on pixels?

here's my impression of a PNW leftist on here: [country trump has been threatening to invade last week] is EVIL. its hell on earth there. they're a regime. and someone like our good woke troops (who are all workers btw) should change them! this is a wholly unique and new idea i arrived at all by myself,

@dankwraith @tcql being a stembro: when you believe science and technology will soon allow us to transcend fleshly limits by editing our own genomes and terraforming Mars, but there could only ever be 2 genders and one is inherently bad at math

Btw, if you want a laugh, check the interview reviews on ViewLift.

They include such gems as, "The interviewer took the call while he was home and was putting on clothes as we were talking. As soon as we connected I could see he was naked above the belt."
