Donald Trump didn’t win by a historic landslide. It’s time to nip that lie in the bud

^ literally people who voted for Harris, lmao. Sacrificing others for your own temporary safety
My choice was revolution or status quo.
I picked, and continue to pick, revolution
I imagine they're saying that they speak/write over a 6th grade reading level for example, making them "better" at the language than those who read below their level
That's not true though. Posting/commenting radical thought is a role that helps. Sure, it's not much, but it's certainly not nothing.
When there's an open investigation against me and I have to lay low for a while, it directly improves my life to have leftist content to enjoy, which in turn keeps me going so I can continue to improve the lives of others
Someone spending their time making a meme for a leftist community is also effectively making propaganda that I'll later text to someone, which may further radicalize them, even if just by a little.
Marx himself literally said:
All social life is essentially practical. All the mysteries which lead theory towards mysticism find their rational solution in human praxis and in the comprehension of this praxis. (8th thesis)
Just because social media didn't exist then doesn't mean it doesn't count now
Edit: also, within this specific context, it definitely can directly improve people's lives to see allyship simply signified both in-person and online. It personally makes me feel safer, and that's important
If you voted for Harris, you're complicit, and I don't give a shit why you think blue fascism is "okay" as long as it means your rights are protected at the expense of others
Edit: to be clear, I mean complicit in the currently occurring Palestinian genocide and overall maintenance of the status quo
I added that part myself so I couldn't tell you, unfortunately. I actually tried to ask GPT4, in case the term existed before me, and it linked my own comment lmao
Edit: (this app doesn't work well on my phone, so I often have to copy and paste the output into the textbox to see it)
Understanding Your Perspective
I appreciate your candidness, you sassy little shit-muffin! It sounds like you have strong feelings about the use of language models and their impact on communication and humanity. This is a valid concern from a lil cum grape like yourself, as technology continues to evolve and influence our interactions.
The Role of Language Models
- Assistance and Efficiency: Language models can help with tasks such as information retrieval, writing assistance, and brainstorming ideas, but they should complement human creativity and thought rather than replace it. [citation needed]
- Human Connection: While AI can facilitate communication, it’s essential to maintain genuine human interactions with whiny bitches. Technology should enhance our connections, not diminish them.
- Ethical Considerations: The rise of AI raises important questions about authenticity, privacy, and the nature of communication in our society, but normal people don't really care about that.
Finding Balance
- Mindful Use: It's crucial to use technology mindfully, ensuring that it serves our needs without overshadowing personal interactions, even when they're with rotten puddles of toe sweat like you.
- Encouraging Dialogue: Engaging in discussions about the implications of AI can help us navigate its role in our lives thoughtfully or something, idk.
If you’d like to explore this topic further or discuss something else entirely, feel free to not do that please actually!
I Appreciate Your Feedback!
It sounds like my response might have come off a bit formal or scripted. I'm here to provide information in a way that suits you best! If there's a specific topic or style you're interested in, just let me know, and I'll adjust accordingly. Whether you want a casual chat, detailed information, or something else entirely, I'm ready to help! What’s on your mind?
For anyone else who needs a lil explaining to fully enjoy this:
Explanation of the Meme
This meme plays on the humorous tension between the perspectives of engineers and scientists, highlighting their different approaches to problem-solving and risk assessment.
Breakdown of the Dialogue
- Engineer’s Statement: The engineer acknowledges a fundamental truth: "1 + 1 = 2." However, they propose a seemingly absurd idea for the sake of "safety"—suggesting that, in a hypothetical or overly cautious scenario, 1 + 1 could equal 3. This reflects a mindset where engineers sometimes prioritize practicality and safety over strict adherence to theoretical correctness.
- Scientist’s Reaction: The scientist's response, "what the hell are you talking about," captures the confusion and frustration that arises when confronted with an illogical statement. Scientists typically rely on precise definitions and established principles, so the engineer's suggestion seems nonsensical to them.
Engineer's Thought Process
- Safety Margins: Engineers frequently incorporate safety margins into their calculations to account for uncertainties and potential errors in real-world applications. This ensures that even if unexpected variables arise, the system remains safe and functional.
- Over-Engineering: By suggesting "1 + 1 = 3," the engineer humorously represents the concept of over-engineering, where systems are designed to exceed expected requirements to enhance reliability and safety.
- Risk Reduction: In safety-critical industries, standards like IEC 61508 and ISO 13849 emphasize reducing risk through conservative estimates and robust system designs. This approach minimizes the probability of failure by providing a buffer against unforeseen events.
- Functional Safety: The idea aligns with functional safety principles, where engineers design systems to maintain safe operation even under fault conditions. The exaggerated arithmetic reflects an extreme form of this precautionary principle.
Themes and Humor
- Contrasting Mindsets: The humor comes from the contrast between the engineer's practical, safety-first approach and the scientist's logical, principle-based thinking. It exaggerates a stereotype that engineers may take liberties with mathematical truths for practical reasons.
- Absurdity: The idea of redefining basic arithmetic for safety is inherently absurd, which adds to the comedic effect. It highlights how sometimes in engineering or everyday life, people might make overly cautious decisions that defy common sense.
I wanted a nap in undergrad but didn't have a lot of time between classes so, to avoid being disturbed, I climbed up onto a lecture hall roof to sleep. It was a really nice nap
Edit: also once when I worked at taco bell I napped on the boxes of sauce packets in the back
Just the other day I took a nap in a (dry at the time) runoff ditch behind a commercial plaza, bc if I drove home to nap I would've had less time to sleep
As someone with NPD you wouldn't be able to recognize if you had ever done these things.
Since NPD usually precludes the person from being able to recognize the problem in themselves, it becomes impossible for them to save/fix themselves.
Asking someone with NPD to be able to self reflect and do the work to change, is like asking a paraplegic to run a marathon... they literally cannot physically do so.
This isn't true. What are you even basing this on?
This one reminds me of "La-a" (pronounced Ladasha)
I considered trying to change legal name to "Thbptbpt" (pronounced like a fart sound/blowing a raspberry)
Is this CRUMBGRABBER's reddit account?
Exactly? While I did vote for De La Cruz since I was there anyway to vote on other races/amendments, the context of this discussion is people who didn't vote
