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).
i definitely watched it when i was a youngun, but i’m always surprised to hear it’s still running tbh
would you care to explain the punchline?
this joke doesn’t really make sense to me. even if Israel didn’t exist in 2025, why would everyone have just forgotten about it, especially when it was such big international news in 2024, and furthermore, for the time traveller to be able to pinpoint the year as 2025, that would imply that in 2026, there also exists Israel. and if 2025 is the only year that someone would not know about Israel, then why would the time traveller ask that question, when it only serves to distinguish between 2025 and not-2025. like, just ask what year it is, what the fuck.
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?
well, whether by bow or by vat of acid, i’d probably choose to spare my friend over some random celebrity. though i’d naturally rather not kill either of them.
is this like a joker dilemma where they’re both dangling over vats of acid and i only have time to save one?
is this new on iphone? as far as i knew, that’s been a thing for most videos for ages on android, excepting only most music videos.
probably ant man, as well as any film that prominantly features ant man as a character. the sci-fi nonsense justification of his powers is just way too stupid for me, and it taints everything it touches.
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.
T2 is definitely the best terminator film, but you’re missing out if you discount all the sequels. Dark Fate at least is pretty darn good, and it’s basically a direct sequel to T2, so you don’t have to watch all the films in between.
i like my laptop cause i already have it, and have gotten to know it quite well over the past 16 years, but i wouldn’t recommend it. it would be nice to have more than 4gb of memory these days, cause i can’t have too many tabs open on firefox without it bogging down.
just a historical factoid that a lot of people don’t realize: the luddites weren’t anti technology without reason. they were apprehensive about new technology that threatened their livelihoods, technology that threatened them with starvation and destitution in the pursuit of profit. i think the comparison with opposition to AI is pretty apt, in many cases, honestly.
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?
my first os was windows 95, but my first linux distro must’ve been whatever version of ubuntu was current around 2007/2008.
thank you for sharing this! i just binged the whole thing so far. i can never get enough queer oz stuff. ^_^
all ya’ll admitting to ironing your clothes in the comments are a bunch of dweebs, just saying.
