You can’t be both the underdog and the king at the same time
So, you hate the New Testament, too?
“Hiccough” is a good one. I always hated that spelling and prefer “hiccup” for that reason.
TIL those are both pronounced the same way. (Gaol/jail is worse, though.)
Yes, English is weird, but this word still breaks rules. “Gh” (pronounced “f”) is never at the beginning of a word, and “ti” (pronounced “sh”) is never at the end.
Chiasmus…A B B A
Is this where ABBA got their name from? Mind blown.
Doing things the hard way doesn’t make you smarter.
That’s what I heard, too. He has a habit of naming his software projects after himself: Linux, git.
For them, I guess. I can imagine some folks would be embarrassed to tell people that they use GIMP for the same reason.
I was part of a coding bootcamp, and one day the class was talking about git. Somebody mentioned that “git” is also a word used as an insult, like “That guy is a total git”. When I revealed that was where the name came from, several students audibly gasped, and a couple said something like “Oh, how embarrassing!” I had the weirdest sense of culture shock, and I had no doubt those students would make very good corporate drones.
Fascists can act out their power fantasies in a healthy, consensual way in the bedroom. Not in my government!
Voting for the Green Party is the bare minimum. Voting for Democrats or Republicans is capitulation.
I don’t think that voting for the same two parties is going to change that. Those two parties got us into this; they aren’t going to get us out.
Vaush explained the idea in one of his streams.
Yeah, I quit watching him. Dude is pretty problematic. “Genocide is bad and wrong, but still vote for Biden, because party loyalty is more important.” At least he has the balls to criticize Biden, which is more than I can say for some people.
So, do you start licking the boot from the toe or the heel?
Or are you the kind of person who just deep-throats the whole boot?
While I agree with you in the main, I don’t see how this is cowardice.
It isn’t even that. You can be pro Zionism and anti Netanyahu.
I know it sounds ridiculous, but I’ve heard a lot of people use that same logic. “I want the cow to have a happy life before it’s killed for my dinner”. Isn’t that the while logic behind “free range”, “cage-free”, etc.?
Bitter foods are an acquired taste. Sweet foods are not. I remember reading somewhere that sweet foods become less attractive once you’ve grown up, but nothing about bitter foods becoming more attractive.
I always thought that people acquire a taste for coffee for the same reason they acquire a taste for beer: repeated exposure. Coffee is the cheapest caffeinated drink (at least in the US), and beer is the cheapest alcoholic drink. Both taste like ass the first time you drink them, but you put up with the taste because you want to get wired or drunk. After repeated exposure, some people grow to like the taste.
