- Comment on 41% of fediverse instances have blocked threads so far!!! 1 year ago:
I was going to use communities as my examples due to the relatively small size of each, but decided country was a better metaphor due to each instance’s ability to fully control their own rules or “laws”, where as communities in the real world are usually beholden to the higher laws of their countries.
- Comment on 41% of fediverse instances have blocked threads so far!!! 1 year ago:
No, each instance is more like a country with it’s own laws, and trade agreements with other countries to share or block content.

Why are none of the slang words being used in any way correctly?
Rizz means charisma not ham, and gyatt means a phat ass, not hamburgers.

I explicitly remember making fun of Matt for his haircut in grade 6, which was 2001. I still consider that being a kid.
- Comment on Bowl cut gang, rise up. 1 year ago:
As someone who was a kid through the 90s, we made fun of the kids with bowl cuts. They were cringe then.

Jews and Christians and Muslims lived in the area since the religions were invented
Under strict Authoritarian Muslim rule. The Jews and Christians didn’t exactly have a lot of power in the area.

At my uni (and most Canadian universities), that would be one degree as a Bachelor of Arts, with majors in accounting and business finance. And You don’t need any minor here, either 1 specialist, 2 majors, or 1 major and 2 minors = 1 degree.

Well clearly the Italians didn’t name that one, it was the damn Belgiums.

Torrone is not a pasta!
Besides, we scientists like to name things anti-something, it’s almost a compulsion.
- Comment on prick 1 year ago:
My Uni only allows like 2 courses of overlap with Majors and Minors, and you need 2 Majors for a degree, or 1 Major and 2 Minors. So even at 11 courses (and it says that was only 1 semester), you could at most fully complete 3 Majors in 3 years, which would end up being 1.5 degrees.
- Comment on prick 1 year ago:
Those aren’t degrees at my Uni, those are majors and minors. 2 Majors, or 1 Major and 2 Minors = 1 degree. Pretty well how every Uni in Canada operates so far as I know.
- Comment on prick 1 year ago:
It says he maxed out at 11 credits. It doesn’t matter what kind of wunderkind you are, at my uni you would still only get 1.5 degrees in 3 years at that rate. No exceptions. This honestly sounds like a PR stunt by Fullerton, and not the kid actually earning 5 degrees.
- Comment on prick 1 year ago:
What is up with Fullerton College? The university I went to it would be impossible to graduate with more than 1 degree in 3 years, and Fullerton is giving a kid 5 degrees for 3 years at college?

The Peronists aren’t left wing though; they’re nationalists, not socialists.

Electing a far right clown isn’t going to fix things though. It never has.

- Comment on TikTok says it’s not the algorithm, teens are just pro-Palestine — The company denied allegations that it has been promoting pro-Palestine content in an effort to sway American opinion 1 year ago:
Most independent sources I’ve seen reporting on numbers have been Palestinians. The UN is not reporting on casualties because it cannot verify any of the claimed numbers.
And Hamas lied about 500 Palestinians being killed in one attack on a hospital by Israel, except it turned out that attack was actually Islamic Jihadists misfiring, and nowhere near 500 people died.
Hamas verifiably made up that 5% of the casualties in this war, so no, you shouldn’t believe the rest of their numbers.
And Hamas has fired thousands of rockets into Israeli territory since Oct. 7th, that goes beyond defending yourself in a hospital.
And the bombing and siege warfare started after Hamas invaded Israel, killed over a thousand civilians, and fired thousands of rockets at Israeli cities.

There is video of weapons fire coming from hospitals, so we do have that.
And Hamas is constantly lying too, yet everyone on this site seems to eat up everything they say.
