But. A beard. That’s like. The symbol of a manly masculine man. With loads of testosterone. No? 😐

I know you’re not speaking English while complaining about irregular grammar in other languages, I just know.

Addendum: “yume” is Japanese for “dream”. They dream of being in a (relation)ship with the other person. We used to call that “self-ship”, I’m pretty sure (“I ship myself with xyz”) but maybe the difference is that this is not about a character but a real person? Which would make it real person shipping which I think most people agree is a dubious pastime. Did I just argue myself into saying having a crush is problematic? I need sleep.

“You chose one of two possible bullshit options, now stop complaining that the result is bullshit.”

Do not engage.

Man Car Door Hook Hand is another tear jerker.

The exception would be an image that is so compelling it somehow instantly propels us into fully automated space communism. Do you have an image that will do that? Or do you just have mid-at-best jokes?

Remember when every movie just HAD to be 3D?

Nah. It’s broken/misconfigured in various ways that make it hard to appreciate it.

I've given a lot more money to the Krita Foundation than any other graphics applications combined. Every time there's an update I'm like "woaaah awesome taek mi monies!!"

She literally made a platform like that.

If you read the article, you’d know that a point of criticism is precisely the fact that the camera isn’t highly visible. Hiding the thing even more wouldn’t fly with German/EU data privacy and they wouldn’t be allowed to sell them here.

Staaahp 🥵

The mention of “Robux” implies I’m too old to understand.

What do you mean by “consume”? Beans can be "consume"d? I thought they were strictly for posting!

Jordan Peterson, noted lobster admirer. That's not a quote from him though, they just drew the obvious mental association line between the quote and him.

How is that the same thing? What more can you do other than make it illegal to use the things? There is no way around that.

What does Copilot Groceries do? Get my groceries? I can get behind that in theory.

Hence "in theory". Get exactly what I order or Microsoft pays the bill.

I do remember thinking, years ago, how weird it was that I drew all the time but actually didn't seem to enjoy the drawing process itself but just wanted the finished thing. Now I think that was because I'm also ADHD and there wasn't enough dopamine in my clumsy attempts but luckily just enough to keep me going. Not that I would call myself "good" now but I know what I'm doing a lot more than 10 years ago. So I guess when I start a picture now I know that it's likely going to be "worthwhile" and even if I don't finish it, I'll be learning something new. Tangentially, that thing about wanting the finished product more than the process is something I recently heard from notorious AI image proponent Shadiversity. Which only convinced me more that people who like AI generated images are simply too weak to actually go through the pain and suffering AND has given me appreciation of my own efforts.

Oh I see you knew that already lol

Humble brag lol

I’m on mobile, using Waterfox. Before even doing anything, a number appears under the first (upper, right, depending on your screen) character, while there’s a question mark under the other character. After selecting a character, the question mark changes into the number representing the character’s popularity which presumably is the intended behaviour. The first number never changes. It’s also blocked under the results popup on mobile so even if it changed, there’d be no way to compare the two numbers. In desktop mode, it’s at least visible, but also doesn’t change.

Yes Nomad, all women. In fact, all women everywhere. Do you not know women? Your coworker is a woman, no? She's like that too, hadn't you noticed?

Might just be a severe lack in pixels.

Probably but is this where you wanted to post this? Edit: got it, see other reply.

What about this is particularly "co-ordinated"? I'm not in favour of this at all but conspiratorial thinking is unhelpful.

Yes but is that worth the utter and complete agony of stopping what you're doing and then starting again 10 minutes later? /s

That's not what coordinated means.

I'm with you, I'm questioning the wording in the OP's picture.

Where does your lap go when you get up?

Haha ur old & disillusioned.

If I were a journalist, I'd hope to go anywhere there's an important story to tell and to do it with legal and my employer's protection. No country should be a no-go zone for journalists.

Yes, pushing for. That means it's not yet. The commenter in the OP says it's "already so coordinated" as if there's a shadowy force behind it all pulling the strings.

Super Mario Flight Simulator!

Sure, if calling for a meeting is "already SO coordinated" as to be worth mentioning, I suppose.

"This is an American." You don't need to accept a term you don't like for yourself but others may not mind. Btw, autistic brains exist outside the UK and the US. In German, it's becoming more common to say "Menschen mit Autismus" (people with autism) but I suspect that's actually more to do with an effort to de-gender because constructions like "Autistinnen und Autisten" (female autists and male autists) are clunky. Also, your "blindist" and "deafist" don't exist in English which is why they sound weird, they do exist in German.

The “American” one would suggest “an autistic”, rather than “an autist”, no? He is American, he is an American.

This may be an issue with English not differentiating precisely between most nouns and adjectives relating to countries. In my head "an American" is clearly a noun but that might be me. Better examples might be "a New Yorker" or "a Londoner".

I’ve said repeatedly that this isn’t a settled debate within the autism community, and at no point have I suggested that other people aren’t free to use whatever terms they want

You did say you don't want to accept a term just because it's popular and I was agreeing to that. The fact that we're talking about this seemed to suggest to me that you felt at least some pressure to conform to what everybody else is saying.

I understand that. I’m specifically talking about the English word “autist”. Ich rede nicht über Deutsch.

And I was drawing parallels between two very closely related languages of two closely related cultures. The words "autist" and "Autist/Autistin" are obviously related so it's interesting to see if there's differences in how they're used and what they are.

I suppose that asks the question why is “autistic” one of (if not the) only example with a dedicated noun?

Language is under no obligation to be consistent and logical. Speakers of English for some reason didn't see need for dedicated nouns here and they dropped out of use (or never developed in the first place). Why English doesn't have a word for "doch" is beyond me but here we are. English also doesn't have dedicated nouns for "person from [country]", as we established above. Does that mean anything profound in particular? To my mind it suggests simply that English somehow tends to prefer adjectives.

“Mostly”, that’s commendable optimism on your part. Not mostly but entirely. It’s the entirety of the key: 4. emudhra.we-have-a-problem.com

He’s a boobs guy, I’m not worried.

I’ve been lead to believe that that makes no difference.

In fact, my hypothesis (it’s mine, you can’t have it) is that the Roman empire fell due to everybody being constantly distressed and distracted because they kept losing their fidget dodecahedrons all over Europe.

Sora shutting down made me go “good things still happen”.

As representative of the shipper community I feel it is my duty to say: heeeey! :(
