An evocative image that truly captures a genuine facet universal to the gem of human experience, for in the gulf between every one of us lies some kind of weird ghost thing fuckin up the steez
Oh no, I can totally see how insanely funny all this would be from an outside perspective. But I can certainly think of funnier timelines. What if atomic bombs were just huge pies we hit other nations with? Or, or there were clown cars that could fit an entire army in them? Wait, that’s actually not funny. Um… What about everyone wearing their underwear on the outside?
I doubt that premise. Neanderthals looked different, but not uncanny valley. Horror and fear may have been involved sometimes, but so was sex and competition… Neanderthals probably just looked like big chinless people
According to commercial genetics testing, I’m more Neanderthal than 90% of other people that used the same major company. My ancestors were into some kinky 👉👌
Our instincts draw from pretty far back in our biological origins as well. The notion of mimiclike predators is pretty damned ancient and likely a factor for very earliest common ancestry.
Psychopath is derived from Ancient Greek… And even besides that, laymen generally use the term to describe ASPD despite the two conditions not being entirely the same. Don’t be obtuse.
The best non-DSM category for socio/psychopath I’ve come across is the lack of affective empathy, but intact cognitive empathy. (non-DSM because that’s just symptom clusters not aetiologies, you quite literally need to have broken laws to be diagnosed with ASPD). Then you have a look at what skills are useful to have as a surgeon, like not flinching when you cut into people, and their character traits including their bedside manners, yep there’s plenty of perfectly integrated psychopaths around. Same goes for pyromaniacs fire departments are full of them, you only ever hear about the ones who don’t get the curve.
I’m unnaturally good at flat pack furniture assembly. And I know how pathetic a brag that is, given it’s a set of instructions and equipment. But everyone I know complains about it. I genuinely like it.
I set out all the materials and count them against the inventory to make sure they’re all there. Then I follow the instructions.
Whenever I’ve helped someone else do it, they start trying to figure out what attaches to what in the abstract, they tear open bags of bolts as they go and grab the one that looks right only to realise later that it’s 2mm shorter than the one they’re meant to use.
I don’t get it. It’s a recipe with all the ingredients provided. Prep the ingredients, cook following instructions.
My partner, who falls into the category of just trying to guess things, is pretty much banned from assisting me until there’s a bit where another human is necessary. But even then I’ll make do using leverage from furniture if I can.
And that’s my super long comment about how I’m good at something that’s remarkably easy, because it’s designed to be easy, but everyone wants to make it hard and then fight about it.
I have a slightly different angle, I just arrange the parts and start following directions.
Ideally A-Z if they’re labeled that way, I also bring my little screwdriver. (It’s this kind, not a full on drill) as well as a drill bit and small utility screws.
I am assembling this furniture, it doesn’t get to negotiate.
I thought the same thing about people telling me they ‘forgot to click send.’ I thought it was just bullshit people say, but apparently there are people who actually do this.
I’m pretty sure that him being an ex-president is a better known fact. But still, him being the first and only criminal ex-president is pretty remarkable. Keep it in the first sentence!
No. A lot of his followers think he is not convicted. That’s a shame jury. A lot still think he is president and didn’t loose to Joe Biden. The most damning truths about him have been pushed aside and ignored.
I’m inclined to agree with this comment, to be honest:
Use Barak Obama page as an example. First sentence is about him as a US President. The second sentence is about something he was particularly special for – bring first African-American US President. Both sentences are above the portrait.
The same should be done for Donald Trump – first sentence is about him being a US President. The second sentence (still above the portrait) is about him being the first US President convicted of a felony
It’s Wikipedia, even the Nazis have to try to sound rational or they get banned. Don’t be fooled by the tone. They are lying and there’s tons of articles of politicians with their criminal history in the lede.
