I believe what you wrote... But if your experience was true, I also think it’s rare.

Every article published has an agenda, & this one’s seems a tactic to get people to vote. Trump lovers will never let us queers just live our lives. They will invade our homes & murder us like they always have.

VOTE

B-tch go fly to your evil lair in New Zealand already . That one ex of yours who mysteriously died, everyone forgot already

“Boniface” yknow like some pope

VOTE!! and also there is NO QUESTION his fart sniffing followers will CHEAT FOR HIM — let’s all get this through our heads NOW

Upvote because you recognized you were incorrect & you weren’t a rowling about it!

Upvote for the perscurptivist spelling, lawl

Makes sense that Librewolf work is done by Firefox devs - a recent LW notification recommended installing FF

I WANT to believe the way you do. No sarcasm. PEOPLE BETTER VOTE, … I shouldnt have excluded that. But after 25y (remember the Supreme Court in 2000?) I can’t help but panic here

Yeah but yknow maybe also pay attention to the people who CLEARLY don’t care if you vote bc they don’t believe your vote counts. It’s happened before

We’re better off FINDING out who these turds are and UNDERMINING them beforehand

IT 👏 DOESNT 👏 MATTER 👏 HOW 👏 PEOPLE 👏VOTE 👏 IF 👏HIS👏FOLLOWERS👏CHEAT👏 ENOUGH 👏LOCAL👏RESULTS

Ah, ok. Yeah I think that’s different. Like the periodic table would also be that structure, but not in the concept of language

interesting thought …I’m curious - who would be talking to who, in this framing of the idea ?

Because cashiers don’t want to fucking touch the 1000 creepos they are forced to talk to every damn shift

When did someone train a Flat Earth AI to answer Google questions

By using his butthole. Saved you a click there 🫠🙏✨

Oof. Not a good look

*can’t use language as much as we can: AS FAR AS WE CAN CURRENTLY TELL. Which isn’t all that much tbh

Me, I think birds are already there, full nouns & verbs. And I highly suspect insects have language systems too. I don’t mean some loose definition like like ants and chemical markers, or emotional expressions.

I mean what linguists mean: units of expression- sound (hand shapes, in signed langs) which recombine to signify different things, in a productive way, allowing for level upon level of transmission of thoughts. It’s a high bar to qualify as human language. And I think probably some nonhuman animals have it, and we’re just not listening closely enough.

But the closer we look.

(And yes there’s a Ted Chiang story about this)

We cannot deny for one moment that animals think, understand, plan, and navigate the world just as humans do.

They just can’t use language as much as we can*, & mostly aren’t as big as us. But they’re way smarter than we’ve been taught , as every farmer in history would tell you.

And a lot of modern scientists. One cognitive science PhD met once said: the closer we look, the more we see non-human animals doing things we used to think only humans did. Tiny animals, she meant. Snails. Mites. Bacteria.

I get how you feel that, but I can’t agree. Knowing who we are is real, tangible progress. Ages of people like us died never having the words we’re able to use now. You’re still alive, and you’re trying, and you’re getting somewhere.

It’s not too late.
