I went to my Dad and told him I’m stuck in a non-linear perception of time.
And he said “Hi stuck in a non-linear perception of time, I’m Dad.”
Why are you saying so what? You asked a question and I answered
Being into them is being attracted to them which, on an instinctual level, is wanting to fuck them
Edit: simplified, obviously, you can be attracted to someone in a more emotional way but some would argue that’s still wanting to partner with them in some way
Oh the definition is fine, I just mean that it seems illogical to adhere to it dogmatically.
Like, ok I’ll try to come up with the best summation but bear with me lol. Basically, let’s say you’re with your current partner. You’ve been into other people in the past. So, logically, you’ll probably be into other people - at some level - in the future, right? That seems like a natural development to me.
So if it’s natural, why should we have the little fine print on all of our relationships that reads “If you’re into other people this contract is null and void?”
Am I making sense? Lol. Like I just mean that it’s natural to be attracted, in some way, to more than one person so why do we default to holding ourselves and our partners to the unnatural? In that way, I’m monogamous with one person at a time seems logically inconsistent to me. It accepts the existence of plurality of attraction, yet denies its engagement
I don’t believe that it can’t be done, it obviously can. There’s just this idea that it’s the natural state, or what humans are instinctively given to, and that just seems… incorrect?
Fair enough! Also because of you I learned that yiffit exists!
do honestly believe in true love… it just happens that my personal one is also kind of a slut
I’m happy that I read this sentence in my lifetime
Looking at divorce rates as a bad thing is misleading, imo. A high divorce rate isn’t necessarily bad
Oh absolutely. I don’t mean to moralize or demonize the issue. I just mean that, seeing as how as soon as divorce became socially acceptable it shot up to 50%, I’m not sure how people can view it as unnatural, I guess.
Also your story is very sweet and every bit of what I want one day, so thank you for sharing. You have an interesting perspective
Fair enough have you tried 1.5?
Even then it seems illogical to me tbh (internally inconsistent?), but at least it’s less rigid
Spock and Chewbacca is an interaction I never knew I wanted. Or Data
It’s interesting that people try to explain this away with all kinds of retroactive in-universe technobabble. I mean, I enjoy Star Wars just as much as the next guy but it’s abundantly clear that SW wasn’t meant to be investigated at this level. It’s space mythology, not hard science fiction. And that’s fine! We can have fun asking things like “Why is the Outer Rim considered a backwater if it only takes a few hours to get from galactic center to the rim?” and we don’t really have to stress about answers to those things as fans. Edit: Or we can if that’s what fans enjoy doing, but it just isn’t my thing and I think that’s ok too
Who would win, a B-17 Flying Fortress with no bombs, or the USS Missouri?
Edit: Also the Missouri can fly too, but it’s a little less maneuverable, usually
The Millennium Falcon would destroy the Enterprise somehow. Then Kirk and crew would be stranded on a planet until they find a way to get aboard and commandeer the Falcon. Ultimately they would use it to go back in time and save the whales or something
No no, I think he said “it’s my-SSN-is-58385747 biased, friend who lives at 2747 Maple Street”
Read, how the shit am I supposed to fuck that?
Yeah tbh I think people totally misunderstand algorithms. I mean, hot is driven by an algorithm, as are the other sort methods, too, albeit simple algorithms. What we really want to avoid are profit-driven and invasive algorithms. But algorithms to boost discoverability for small communities could be really beneficial
If you want neutral memes you can come over to [email protected]
We’re for memes with humor that’s so bad it’s ironically funny. A bit niche but at least you get a break from politics
Yeah, Linux is just not that accessible tbh. I know maaayyyybe a little more than average about computers, meaning I know how to follow tutorials lol.
I installed Ubuntu onto my laptop because it was getting old and slow. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the speed. My laptop is fast as it was new. But, doing some of the simplest things is a nightmare to me. I spent an hour last night just trying to install AirVPN. Why do I have to go into terminal? Why can’t I just right click and install? Then when I finally got it installed I realized there’s no UI, so idk how to use it lol.
Given, I could learn. Nothing wrong with that. But the opportunity cost is low - I’m really not willing to give up that much for ? benefit.
Thank heavens for the Ubuntu app store
