It's not the 90's anymore. You can play the new Mortal Kombat on the Switch, gore fully intact.

So tech outpaces legislation, as it is wont to do since legislation is notoriously slow, and so because of that our reaction should be to throw our hands up and not even try? Perhaps you don't sympathize as much as you think you do.

I looked it up and you're right. I must of been thinking of a different crime. That'll teach me to go spouting off about stuff.

My point that AI is programmed to recycle and humans aren't is still something I stand by, so I edited my comment.

You're comparing something humans often do subconsciously to a machine that was programmed to do that. Unless you're arguing that intent doesn't matter (pretty much every judge in America will tell you it does) then we're talking about 2 completely different things.

Edit: Disregard the struck out portion of my comment. Apparently I don't know shit about law. My point is that comparing a a quirk of human psychology to the strict programming of a machine is a false equivalency.

I spent lots of hours interacting with it, and I understand its limitations and strengths.

Considering you think it's a substitute for a scholarly source, I doubt that. Once again, this is a machine designed to repeat things it heard. It's a mechanical parrot. ChatGPT4 did not earn a degree. It did not study. It does not fact check. It does not give a solitary fuck about the scientific method. If you cannot see why this would be a problem for its credibility, then I can't help you.

The rest of it

You just tried to use a glorified markov chain in an argument. Suffice to say I do not believe that you are the best judge of factual accuracy in regards to said tally.

In the short term, yes. What this leaves out is that two years of HRT is enough to negate those physical benefits. Hormones are powerful shit.

Also, no it fucking isn't a reasonable method. It has neither the credentials to know what it's talking about, nor any obligation to verify that what it says is true. Imagine reading 10,000 shitty sci-fi novels and 1 textbook and thinking you can piece together advanced physics. It literally cannot tell the difference between fact and fiction, nor does it care. It's a machine. Garbage in, garbage out.

Imagine using predictive text as a source.

Why does he refer to himself in the third person? That's so creepy.

That is literally a swastika.

They are absolutely still interested in challenging it. They've been talking about repealing it since the day that it was enacted. Why do you think they keep dialing up the anti LGBT rhetoric? Do you think that they just threw up their hands and said "oh well!" when that thing they railed against for decades happened? That which they raged against with all the hatred in their hearts. That they insisted was a sin against god and would lead to the collapse of Western civilization?

They didn't stop being angry at us. They're still pissed.

Yeah, I was fine. Mostly. Probably. I just thought it would be a funny concept to have a character like that who's dark and brooding exclusively when he's on the job, and is friendly to just about everyone the rest of the time.

When I was a younger I made up a dark type gym leader OC who's thing is he acts like an edgelord when he's on the clock but is otherwise pretty chill when he punches out. I always thought it was a pretty funny concept that I'd love to see in a game. So that's me.

We don't "force" them to do it. This is repeatedly established to be something they enjoy doing. BW even has this as a plot point: N, a young man who is somehow able to understand Pokémon, is initially of the same point of view as you. To his astonishment, most Pokémon outright refuse to abandon their trainers. At first he chalks this up to some form of brainwashing, but over the course of the game he comes to realize that their desires to train and become stronger are in fact genuine. He ultimately decides it isn't right for him to decide what they want for them, and spends the sequel targeting abusive trainers exclusively as opposed to tearing down the institution of Pokémon training in it's entirety. >!There's also some stuff about a bigger big bad grooming him to be the face of Team Plasma while he controls the group from the shadows, complete with strongly implied child abuse. Oh, and the reason the bigger bad wants to "liberate" Pokémon to begin with is so that no trainer can oppose his own team when he goes for world domination. You know, typical RPG stuff!<

"I'd rather be a pig than a fascist"

In real life when you look at the most intelligent animals on earth, most of them are mammals. It makes sense that they would achieve human level intelligence before any other class of animal.

Bugs, birds, reptiles. In Zootopia, only mammals are anthropomorphic.

It's a recruitment tactic. For obvious reasons, it's pretty hard to convince people that the group most famous for committing genocide were the good guys. In order to get fresh blood for their little terrorist cells, they have to pretend that the Nazis had clean hands and were the victims of a grand conspiracy because that's the only way to make themselves look decent. That's also why they insist that even though the holocaust "didn't happen", that it " should have ". Because in their own narrative, the Jewish people are an organized force behind all of the worlds problems, and from that perspective they've gotten away with countless crimes that the holocaust could have prevented. You can imagine that the conspiracy theorists who get suckered in by this lie eventually become the people who sell it. It's a cycle that is intentionally set up to radicalize those who distrust authority.

The way the title was worded made me think that the harshest penalty was going to Oxford.

Cats Don't Dance. 20 years later I'm a furry.

Art wasn't melting the ice caps. That's why we were cheering the coal mining industry getting some. Because the coal industry is choking the goddamn planet to death. What did you want from us? Are we supposed to feel bad because the people raping mother earth for profit are going to get a job doing something that won't kill us?
