more like chimps are monkeys in the same way that whales are mammals

so, frequently people will conflate monkeys and apes, and use the terms interchangably (that’s the left end of the graph), people with a bit more knowledge may be aware of the common definition that monkeys have tails while apes do not (that’s the middle part), while those with more knowledge of biological taxonomy argue that, since new world monkeys and old world monkeys share a more distant common ancestor than old world monkeys and apes, if we want to define a term ‘monkey’ that encompasses both new and old world monkeys, it would have to also include all apes (including humans). so, according to the right side of the graph people, chimpanzees are apes are monkeys (though lots of monkeys are not apes, it’s a squares and rectangles kinda thing).
words do area-of-effect damage, friend.
if you use the r-slur around me, even if its not directed at me, it hurts, and it makes me feel less safe with you, because of the way that word has been used to specifically target me for hatred based on my neurotype. plus there’s the fact that you acknowledge it to be a mean word for disabled people, and if you’re using it as a weapon against non-disabled people, you’re really saying ‘haha, you’re like those disabled people, and that’s terrible.’ i hope you can see how this probably doesn’t feel so good to a lot of us?
i think:
Unfortunately for us, they have the same vote we do
gosh i wish that were more true. given the equal representation of states in the senate, and the subsequent higher weighting of low-population states in the electoral college, the vote of a californian is worth a lot less than the vote of a wyomingian. and someone in washington D.C. has even less say. it’s a pretty fucked up pseudo-democracy, tbh.
well yeah, but also, you don’t pour grease down the drain so you can use it later. any time i’m pan frying anything, the pan gets a bit of bacon grease. if i accumulate enough of it, i’ll use it for deep frying too. throwing it out, down the drain or in the trash just does not make sense to me.
why the hell would someone throw out perfectly good bacon grease? or is that the joke, that the third fellow is deranged?
thank you for sharing this! i just binged the whole thing so far. i can never get enough queer oz stuff. ^_^
that was really good. heavy stuff, but really good.
i’ll look into putting up an issue on github when i’m at my desktop, in the meanwhile, i’ve downgraded to 0.3.0, which works fine.
it was every time i tried to comment. as far as i can tell, the toolbar didn’t disappear, it just didn’t move when the keyboard is open, leaving it hidden behind it at the bottom of the screen, but i didn’t check with a transparent keyboard to confirm. i use Hacker’s Keyboard, but i also tried it with microsoft swiftkey (which i think might have been stock on my device, a kyocera duraforce pro 2, but i don’t remember) with identical results.
yeah, it’s completely busted on my end too, it doesn’t scroll at all unless i add a ton of newlines first, and even then the markdown toolbar is hidden behind my keyboard.
i think ‘mafia ramen’ has a nice ring to it.
having an SD card slot and headphone jack is much more important to me than durability
por que no los dos? i drop my phone on nearly a daily basis, because i am clumsy af, but the screen is more scratch and impact resistant than any screen protector i could purchase, and it’s still fine after a couple years of that abuse. it still has a headphone jack and removable sim/sd tray, and if it ever gets dirty i can wash it in the sink. i do wish it had a removable battery and a better camera, but nothing’s perfect i guess. there’s no reason sturdiness or waterproofness need to get in the way of any functionality.
the trick is though, they don’t market these sorts of phones to clumsy people, they more aim them at construction workers.
even if they were breaking tos (and i don’t think it sounds quite so cut and dry), shouldn’t the response be to notify them and allow them to fix it, or just terminate the account? demanding a ton of money to make the problem seems a skeevy way of handling it on cloudflare’s part.
anyone want to explain what the joke is here?
i’ve never heard of this practice before, and it’s fascinating.
fun fact though (since i am a fan of linquistics and typography and such): jesus wouldn’t have been a capitalized pronoun user because capitalization wouldn’t be invented for over a thousand years after his death. and, he would’ve been speaking aramaic, which never developed a bicameral script in the first place. unless of course we’re to assume that he (and presumably his god dad) ghost-wrote the king james bible i guess and they wanted to update their pronouns with these newfangled upper and lower case letters.
the image looks like it’s been mirrored, but it’s right by her left (actually probably right) shoulder. says “Cliven Zu”.
why? oh, it’s got a million and one uses!
all ya’ll admitting to ironing your clothes in the comments are a bunch of dweebs, just saying.
