My point was simply that there are a lot of things we do “better than nature”, though we are a part of nature anyways so the distinction is arbitrary.

Yeah, natural immunity is much better than antibiotics and vaccines, which is why we invented them in the first… Oh no wait, that’s actually incredibly wrong.

It’s not ok to insult anyone. Why do you feel the need to do so, and why are you asking for permission?

More like going into a church and complaining that there are too many pedophiles.

But muh piracy!

You didn’t read the article, did you? It’s not about reading tomes but books. Doesn’t matter if it’s an e-book or a really long slideshow on TikTok. These kids have never read the entirety of the text which is ordinarily contained in a single tome regardless of the format in which they didn’t read it. If you don’t understand why this is alarming, odds are you haven’t either. And considering you didn’t even read the article…

In the same vein, my friend frequently tells his fiancé to quit being a f*ggot when he doesn’t want to eat something unusual or complains about mild annoyances. Which always draws hilariously confused looks from nearby straights who don’t know them very well.

It’s actually a really good game, though of course it has some problems. The real issue is the fact that most people weren’t even aware that it existed.

To be fair, we absolutely should outlaw at least 99% of all currently practiced forms of advertising and make it so that new forms of advertising have to be whitelisted by a panel of psychiatrists, sociologists, environmentalists and urban planners before they’re allowed.

Alternative title: how annoying people have adapted to not being able to annoy everyone as easily as before.

That isn’t the whole picture. I was born in 1988. The sampling of music from the 70’s that I’ve been exposed to is completely different to the sampling of music from the same period that someone born in '58 was exposed to in their lifetime. They got to listen to a bunch of bad stuff (and probably some great stuff) that I don’t even know exists.

Yes, it is. But when the article’s title is bad, that’s more than enough reason to break convention.

If you interpret these sayings as “just wait around without doing anything and the problem will fix itself”, then you’re missing the point. The point is that everything is always changing, and that includes the situations in our lives and how we feel about them.

When you’re at the bottom of a slump, it often feels like it’s going to stay that way forever. But this feeling is an objectively false view of reality. Reminding yourself that “this too shall pass” can help to cut back on the despair and allow you to focus on taking steps to prepare/help the healing process rather than just giving up because right now it seems like it’s pointless, life is suffering, God is a lie but the Devil is real, and everything will suck more and more forever.

He should. But no, you shouldn’t assume he does.

Better the devil you know.

The people we investigate pay for our giggling paperwork with their taxes, which makes it doubly funny.

A better title would have been "Man arrested by FBI for SEC hack had searched ‘How to know for sure if you are being investigated by the FBI’."That would eliminate the incorrect implication.
