Am I missing something? I only see the AI overview as an option after clicking the “try new features” lab logo. Are some versions of Google search forcing this feature currently?

I had heard the servitor story before but forgot where it was sourced. Do you happen to remember which book it came from?

I just don’t understand how Apple, a company known for their sleek, elegant design aesthetics above all else, put their name on something that looks so dorky

Ultimately, it’s selecting for crabs. Crabs are perfection. There is no escaping carcinization.

Dragon’s breath is a pretty common name for incense scents, but it seems to vary a bit between different brands. The only common ingredient I saw was that most of them have musk or “white musk”

I get you, but I also think there’s value in considering how these kinds of conversations affect people who are neither vegetarian nor vegan.

If you create a permission structure for 10 meat eaters to write off the whole group as extremist crazies, while you’re trying to bully 1 vegetarian, who might be, maybe, bullied into veganism, that’s still a net loss of a whole lot of animals.

Also, this isn’t a veg friendly space. Having conversations like this among other veg*ns is entirely a different affair than doing it in an environment where the average response is just “hell no, I love my meat”

Sorry, but I just don’t think this attitude is useful for reducing harm to animals. It’s rare for people to hear about veganism and then go straight from eating meat to eating 0 animal products, for 100 reasons. I spent like 10 years vegetarian before finally going vegan.

This overly critical attitude and stereotypes associated with it do a lot to push people away from bothering with making any steps at all.

No one is able to fully eliminate animal harm from their lives, and any steps that anyone is making on the road to reducing it should be applauded. It’s our only option if we want to be anything other than a hated minority.

Looks left at 90% of the human population causing untold suffering without giving 2 shits.

Looks right at the 5% that are actually bothering to do something.

“Yes, let’s shit on them”

They are altering the deal. Pray they don’t alter it any further.

Can we make this our “deplorables?” I really wanna join the abortion army, ngl

“Charlie who?”

Ejaculating at least 21 times a month is strongly correlated with a reduction in risk (like 30%) for prostate cancer.

This question is probably worth revisiting after 2024’s election, since Trump may still have more mileage. A second term might be more dangerous than the first was. Assuming he doesn’t win, then his legacy will mostly be all of the weird and slightly hard to measure changes to American culture, specifically conservative political culture.

He generally seems to have made more dangerous ideas popular but also to have made getting a governing coalition together to actually enact those ideas more difficult by eroding the Republican party. Bush’s foreign policy decisions seem to have been far more dangerous so I think I’d vote for Bush being the worst as of right now.

That said, Trump still has a non-zero chance of bringing real American fascism into power so that would change things.

She obviously came to debate club unprepared. Major red flag, bro.

To be fair, those kind of mean the same thing

Hello, welcome to the internet.

“It tends to result in two large parties that must put together broadly popular coalitions in order to win.”

If you don’t mind, to what extent do you think the founders were aware of this? I know Washington made a point of warning about the dangers of political parties and then everyone else seems to have quickly hopped into the Republican/Federalist camps.

Was this seen as an unavoidable evil during the drafting, or did they think they were crafting something that would avoid parties becoming powerful?
