Oh wow. That makes sense

Why is it mirrored?

Yeah but only the white dudes

Yeah it’s also super toxic to empathy, compromise, being not a extremist psychopath, etc. Ot trains your brain to be the opposite of logically charitable

The more accurate allegory I like is tricking yourself into believing that will have to live the life of everyone who as ever lived (like reincarnated once at a time). It still means that you have to kill hitler because you would want to protect all of your other reincarnation experiences, but you’re not necessarily going to torture them alive for fun… maybe for deterrence though.

It’s the most true to the fact that everyone has the same experiences we do, we’re just numb to them. We would act as if the first paragraph were true if we could somehow tap into the consciousness experiences of everyone else. Selfishness is just ignorance

Finally internalizing how much nicer it is put in a little bit of effort in advance rather than stressful scrambling after procrastinating was literally life changing. I don’t think I even realized how much subconscious stress I was under during the procrastination. But my kids are just like “shut up dad”

There’s nothing wrong with the lesson here but this sounds fake. Those are the two most superficial stereotypes of class life with no explanation how you bridged that gap. There is a big jump in happiness when you no longer have to worry about making ends meet. From there, you just have to not get caught up in consumer envy.

But hey this is the internet so who knows

Can confirm food in Japan is just better even at the same fast food restaurants.

McDonald’s is the one restaurant that I will eat at internationally because they have different menu items. It is interesting to see what is popular in that country and the local interpretation of American culture. But even then it’s one and done and only if I absolutely have to eat a quick meal to make a reservation or something

Ah. Pre-NRA America

How is he saying that when his tongue is melted away?

Not attracting smeagle is just another read to use a shoe

Yeah but then it’s still gonna be… wriggling

Hey I know aureate from the Red Riding series! (DAMN good series btw)

Man etymology is so neat

That is some badass hair!

⭐️🌟🏅Gold Star!!

Yeah I think that’s a perfectly valid interpretation

You’re not wrong, but this is art. It’s more about the sentiment of being the minority that doesn’t want to wake up early when every else does

Now that just makes me curious as hell about the original work for bear. Maybe something more similar to the Latin “ursa”?

Does that mean Beowulf means bee wolf in old English?
