when someone changes their name, especially because their old one is a bad time for them. usually because they are transitioning, but maybe because they were a high profile victim, or a relation of someone who was, or they are trying to escape abuse- and you carry on using it to punish them and deliberately hurt their feelings out of spite
Firefighter here. I was reflecting on a fatality I attended recently. My thoughts wandered to how a body looks like it is ‘just matter’ in a way that a living thing does not, even when sleeping. Previously I assumed this observation was just something to do with traumatic death, but this person seemed to have died peacefully...
you would think that a “language model” would have “connotation” high on its list of priorities - being that is a huge part of the form and function of language.
I’m convinced it’s only purpose is actually to give tech C-level and VPs some bullshit to say for roughly 18-36 months now that “blockchain” and “pandemic disruption” are dead.
cops don’t stop murderers, in the vast majority of cases, (all crimes not just homicide) they turn up afterwards.
they direct CSI and then hand over the case to homicide detectives (who are under pressure to deliver results like some kind of salesman, but that’s another conversation)
less than 0.3% of officers are in homicide to begin with.
Former President Donald Trump’s supporters say they hold him as a source of true information over their family, friends, and religious leaders, according to a new CBS News/YouGov poll out on Sunday.

Countless firsthand accounts of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have disappeared across the last decade, and it may speak to larger issues with the historical record in the digital age.
yes but what you said in reaction to “when sites try to archive information and incredibly rich copyright holders with infinite money and lawyers sue them to the detriment of human wellbeing in order to earn a pittance more to add to their infinite dragon hoard and that’s bad” is “you’re a whiny bitch.”
perhaps it would’ve been worth considering adding your thoughts on the nuances of how laws bind vs protect people in the original comment?
so, if I’ve understood you correctly - once you buy one single gun, there is no need to buy any other gun? nor for anyone else to buy a gun as they could just use your gun?
do you envision it like one gun for the whole country? or per state? would you use like a calendly link to book the gun?
ok, don’t force anyone to support a war machine they don’t want. don’t force anyone to support roads they don’t want built. don’t force anyone to build hospitals, or fire stations, or schools, or sewers, or cut down trees, or maintain a police force.
what you seem to be missing is that I’m not literally claiming we should actively do things I’m saying
I’m making fun of the ridiculous points by making equally spurious suggestions in the other direction. my intention isn’t to convince anyone that my comments are the correct course of action, they are simply mocking the ideas by parroting and rephrasing the sentiment.
