More like this, though technically goth is firstly a music based subculture so if you wanted to you could wear cargo shorts and polo and call yourself a goth if you listen to goth bands, but goth fashion has become it’s own thing and is usually what people refer to when they call someone goth.
And goth fashion is very Victorian influenced with dark and accoult theming and lots of corsets, lace and frills white or often white or very pale foundation with rather extreme black eye makeup and or lipstick and certain hairstyles like the bats nest.
Honestly it’s a bit hard to put into definitive words and it’s mostly a general vibe you get from them, but if you grow up in alternative social circles you are able to tell different sub culture fashion apart even if you can’t explain it precisely.

Tankies are basically maga but for “socialism”
They don’t have any actual values or morals and will happily support the most disgusting and heinous people that opress people, are racists wexist homophobic, that murder civilians and even commit genocide as long as they say they hate capitalism, and western imperialism.

Nah, the guy was a piece of shit and I’m glad he’s dead and fully supporting people meming in him. I’m not giving some opressive dictator that does all the same shit I hate people like Trump for, just because he also hates America.

And they were will need content cruisers and content battleships to combat the content destroyers and then we will entuslly see content aircraft carriers launching content dive bombers to sink the content battleships making big gun content naval doctrine obsolete.

If your shoes are covered in mud (or full of gravel???) then you take them off. But if you’ve just gone outside to go to the shop and your shoes are still relatively clean, you wipe them on the doormat and go in, the amount of dirt you actually bring in is miniscule.
Then there are rules about not putting shoes on sofas or beds, so if you want to put your feet up you take your shoes off then.

I get that this is Lemmy and users here are a certain way but calling anything over 16 dollars not worth it is genuinely insane.

- Comment on YSK: listening to audiobooks and reading books both activate the same language related areas of the brain 1 month ago:
I really wish I could do audio books, but my ADHD riddles brain zones out constantly and i would keep having to skip back because I realised I wanst paying attention and had no idea what happened for the last 5 minutes. I already have to this with TV shows sometimes and even books ill occasional read a paragraph without actually reading it.

I think tablets like these are actually extremely common.
I know a guy I spoke to at the British Museum about cuneiform tablets said they literally just have hundreds and hundreds of them in storage and they are most very mundane record keeping.
- Comment on Wikipeter was the founder of the site in 1993 when he wanted to know more about model trains without having to visit the library 2 months ago:
Nah fuck this attitude, if you ever tried to use Wikipedia for an actual research project you’ll know how dubious those “”“sources”“” can be.
It’s actuslly an exercise one of my TA friends sets for students when they’re just learning to research things properly. She gives them a claim on Wikipedia and and asks them to find the primary source for it. So they end up spending hours following chains of citations, until they are checking out old books from the library to try and find excerpts that some blog post that was cited in a paper that was cited in a newspaper, that was cited in a different blog post that was cited in another news article that was cited by Wikipedia claims exists, just to find out it doesn’t.
But seriously, don’t take Wikipedia seriously unless it cites a primary source directly.

No I understood the point of your comment perfectly, it’s the old “well we can’t complete fix every problem with society magically overnight with 1 action, so we shouldn’t try to do anything” argument. With perhaps a dash of “you want to improve society, yet you participate in society, curious” thrown in as well.
Basically if everyone were to have the same attitude as you literally nothing would ever get better.

Idk, I’ve tried to play it at least half a dozen times since it was “fixed” and it still just seems rushed and unfinished, just less buggy now.

Idgaf he’s a bigot, a cow or a racist. If I like x thing that was made, and them being a bigot, cow or racist does not impact the product I’m buying, then I’m buying it.
Congrats on perfectly respresenting the core of what is wrong with modern society.
“If it doesn’t get in the way of my mindless consumerism, I’ll happily support people who are openly racist”
People like you, more so even than the bigots themselves, are why society is turning to shit.
