I block ads everywhere I can because I’m sick of the low effort, blatant manipulation campaigns.

An artist trying to get the word out that their work is for sale is completely fine with me.

I guess I’m lucky enough to have well stocked physical stores and smaller online retailers I can rely on :)

Makes sense thanks.
What a fucked up situation, having to feed the monster that first got you into that situation.

Some people get mad when u tell them not to shop on amazon, they talk about it being the only viable option for them since they live so far from actual stores and whatnot.

This got me wondering how were these people feeding and clothing themselves 10 years ago? (Or before the advent of amazon grocery shopping, idk how long it’s been and I’m very bad at keeping track of time).

I’m genuinely curious about this, if someone has an answer please tell me.

Saw it two days ago for the first time.
I thought that line about not needing eyes was familiar!

I know it’s not that crazy but these moments always amaze me:

Never in my life had I heard BMW’s being called bimmers/beemers,
And this is the second time I see it today.

Sure man, insult them that’ll get me on your side, you dick

Ah yeah that makes sense. Thanks

How so ?

Yes that changes the amount of money she would get, but I meant how important is it in regards to her rights being abused?

How important is it to you that it was one of the highest grossing films of all time ?
How would you feel about it if the movie was a failure?

I think that one is for when humans bite cats

Right. But atleast we’d be done with the BCEs.

You’re making me wonder what event (that we can precisely date) was/will be important enough worldwide for it to be used as year zero?

Let’s just all use the Holocene calendar.

I learned about it in This episode of The Rest is Science with Hannah Fry and Michael Stevens from Vsauce, if you wanna learn cool stuff about our calendars…

From the Wikipedia article:

"Although the okapi was unknown to the Western world until the 20th century, it may have been depicted since the early fifth century BCE on the façade of the Apadana at Persepolis, a gift from the Ethiopian procession to the Achaemenid kingdom.

For years, Europeans in Africa had heard of an animal that they came to call the African unicorn."

Seems to suggest that though elusive, it was pretty well know in the region.

Thanks for making me learn stuff.

I agree with the sentiment but “Absolutely no woman has ever fantasized” about that?

Do you really believe that? If not, why use these words? I don’t think it serves your purpose and it’s too bad.

Don’t hate me please. I’m just talking semantics which are important to me

You sound like a very good person.
I think you get what I believe religion is supposed to be about.
And that’s nice to see :) keep it up!
