- Comment on The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. 4 days ago:
Assuming 50% of people in the world have a penis (it’s lower but for the sake of argument we’ll say 50%), more than 50% of bathroom visits require sitting. People with vulvas need to sit, but so does anyone who is pooping, as well as anyone who has one of a number of conditions that makes standing during a bathroom visit untenable. Therefore, the seat should always be put down.

I appreciate the TLDW because the thumbnail made me think this was about bee vomit, not a scammy browser plugin
- Comment on Japan’s Birth Rate Set to Break Even the Bleakest Forecasts 1 week ago:
Yeah, I was looking around and I couldn’t find anything about an actual program which makes me think it may have been just a comment someone made suggesting something like that. I do remember thinking at the time that Japan is rather unwelcoming to immigration by non-Japanese people so there would have to be a major shift in culture to allow that kind of thing.
- Comment on Japan’s Birth Rate Set to Break Even the Bleakest Forecasts 1 week ago:
Didn’t they have a program a few years ago inviting foreigners to come and have (effectively) anchor babies?

Aw, that’s adorable. You still think good things might happen.
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 3 weeks ago:
Nope, it was written for a minstrel show, to mock black folks. The songwriter later moved south to join the confederacy.
- Comment on An Apple fan says they lost '20 years of digital life' after using an Apple gift card 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, his photos and other content he generated may be retrievable via personal backups, but if he bought media or apps from Apple, those are unavailable if he’s not authenticated via Appleid, and if his devices can’t authenticate he is basically unable to use them for anything.

Sorry, let me clarify: your tattoos won’t look cool when you’re older. This dude isn’t you.

“Hmmm,” as in “hmmm, is there already a dontputyourdickinthat community?”

I think it would be both normal and probably welcomed by a lot of them (as long as you’re not pushing an MLM.) Worst case scenario, they decline your friend request, but it’s not “weird.”
- Comment on Israel’s IDF Bans Android Phones—iPhones Now ‘Mandatory’ 5 weeks ago:
I was mostly joking about apple’s rule that they don’t show villains in movies using Apple products.
- Comment on Israel’s IDF Bans Android Phones—iPhones Now ‘Mandatory’ 5 weeks ago:
Odd, I thought Apple didn’t want villains using iPhones.
- Comment on Waymo Forced to Halt Overnight Operations As Punishment for Causing Nonstop Ruckus 5 weeks ago:
Using “ruckus” I the title and not referencing Wu Tang in the article? Straight to jail.

- Comment on Microsoft AI CEO pushes back against critics after recent Windows AI backlash — "the fact that people are unimpressed ... is mindblowing to me" 1 month ago:
Pro tip: when your customers don’t like your product, it’s not their fault. It’s yours, and the appropriate response is not complaining or incredulity that people don’t like it. The appropriate response is to change the product or scrap it completely.
- Comment on They Wylin' 1 month ago:
Listen, slick Willie might be a child raping scumbag, but he knows a DJT blowjob is going to be all teeth and self-aggrandizement. No one wants to have oral interrupted every 10 seconds by the person giving oral talking about how great they are at giving oral.
- Comment on Reddit mod jailed for sharing movie sex scenes in rare “moral rights” verdict 1 month ago:
Seems like this was based on the people whose images were being exploited complaining to the court, so their view of what infringes their reputation.
- Comment on Reddit mod jailed for sharing movie sex scenes in rare “moral rights” verdict 1 month ago:
Except a remake would not use the original actor’s image, a trailer is part of marketing the actor agreed to, and parodies are covered by fair use.

- Comment on grindr dump (in post body) 1 month ago:
The point is, if 10% of guys in a given population are unspeakably awful, that’s the 10% who you will hear from on a dating app. You don’t get that from fems because they are typically being pursued on all dating and social media apps, because we still largely hold to the cultural norm that men/masc presenting people are responsible for asking the other person out.
It seems worse on Grindr because the majority of users are cis men-the very people who have been told since birth that it’s their job to pursue sexual connections. Of course that leads to poor behavior.

If you can point out to republican voters how the DMCA fucks them too, you can bury your shitty GOP rep in calls and letters which might make them change.
Maybe.
- Comment on Why did Thanos, with the power of all the infinity stones, never think to try doubling the amount of resources in the world? 2 months ago:
That’s in the comics. We’re talking about the movies, where the personification of death is not a factor.
- Comment on Why did Thanos, with the power of all the infinity stones, never think to try doubling the amount of resources in the world? 2 months ago:
Because it’s a pretty dumb story at its core. Because they wanted the “worst villain” but couldn’t come up with something more interesting or intelligent than “misguided environmental terrorist.”
- Comment on I don't think so 2 months ago:
Yep. Much like the swastika was a Hindu and Buddhist symbol (that Hindus and Buddhists have largely given up b/c Nazis) “volk” is one of those things the Nazis tainted for good.
