How big whales are is really one of the great mysteries of life; if we could comprehend that, we would probably understand all the others too

Or it could be that 50% of Americans can’t read past an eigth grade level, and therefore can’t read subtitles quickly enough to keep up.

Sanctimonious twat. “Laziness”.

It depends on the person too. If dubs miss some important element of the original language, then we should try to make better dubs for people who need or simply prefer them.

I usually prefer subs but I also like to listen to documentaries while doing my dishes so that is a case where dubs would be nice.

In America the importance of reading is downplayed but at the same time, being book-smart is not the only important thing. Some people may vastly prefer trades, crafts, sports, or other activities with less of an emphasis on reading. These are examples of perfectly smart people who may prefer dubs.

Literacy isn’t a function of intelligence, though. It’s a function of an educational system that teaches children to read.

The US school system is failing children; consequently, over 50% of adults read like 13 year olds. ½ movie attendees literally cannot read fast enough to manage subtitles.

(Which are useful and ought to be provided, absolutely. But his attitude pisses me off.)

Discourse like this about a movie makes me think maybe Americans have become too literate

REALLY FUN FACT for big cats cheetahs are fucking docile as shit

my grandfather ran a cheetah sanctuary in south africa and he’d just lie with them and sleep among them and they’d rub against him and chirp at him they’re big fucking babies

Another Fun Fact: Cheetahs are incredibly nervous animals. One of the (many) reason’s they’re going extinct is that cheetahs are so sensitive and nervous, some of them are literally too nervous to breed. Others will breed, but stress themselves out so much, they’ll lose their cubs. So zoos with breeding programs had to figure out how to make cheetahs comfortable enough to first of all, get laid and secondly - not spazz themselves into miscarrying. So what’d they do? They gave the cheetah’s their very own Service Dogs! The dogs make them feel safe, protected and secure!

people don't hate "platonic male intimacy" they hate men seeming gay because they're homophobic and homophobia is normalized. shut the fuck up about normalizing platonic intimacy. stop pretending straight males are the victims of toxic masculinity and homophobia and gay men aren't. what is wrong with all of you

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the nu-atheist movement slowly turned in to the incel-blackpill-4chan fascism we’re dealing with now. A lack of religious belief doesn’t in any way make someone a bad person and we should be criticizing organized religion and all the harm it’s done. But the cynical dudebro atheist culture had a distinct ideology - it wasn’t about science so much as using the concept of science as validation for a bitter, joyless view of the world.

I remember when people in that scene loved to talk about how no one’s pets actually loved them, and people who deluded themselves into thinking their dog wasn’t just using them for food were idiots. That’s just science, are you triggered snowflake? But in reality, actual science has shown that your dog does have a positive emotional connection to you, one that goes beyond seeing you as a provider of necesities. So why would these self-proclaimed logical, rational men ignore the actual science in this case? Because they have been raised in a culture that rewards cruelty and dominance. Genuine scientific thinking involves abandoning your preconceived notions and coming at a subject with an open mind, but they never did that. They just looked for validation for what they already believed - everyone is inherently cruel and selfish, nothing has any meaning, we come into a heartless world for no reason, fuck kill and die and nothing matters.

This deliberate rejection and mockery of any kind of sentimentality, spirituality or connection with the land and other living beings is unhealthy. It’s settler-colonial manhood taken to it’s logical end point, an angry refusal to genuinely feel anything, trust anyone or make yourself vulnerable in any way. It’s the mentality that human beings are all enemies who gain from each other’s suffering. It isn’t actually based in logic or reason, just a long oppressive ideological history, and it really isn’t surprising that it became violent as fast as it did.

i love how this fairly innocuous post made so many dweebs so violently angry lol. like, reacting with extreme anger and misogyny to someone criticizing nu-atheism mayhaps… proves my point

“Imagine an adult liberation movement that called itself “boy power.” Or imagine that a diverse and complex, historically powerful global liberation movement which was combating the violent socio-economic and sexual oppression of a people had become known as “girl power.” Imagine a political platform for socio-economic revolution that was encapsulated in sound bites such as “we are all beautiful no matter what we look like” or “self-empowerment is self-confidence…” In 2001 the Oxford English Dictionary defined “girl power” as “power exercised by girls; spec. a self-reliant attitude among girls and young women.” The Cambridge Dictionary offers the following definition: “[T]he idea that women and girls should be confident, make decisions, and achieve things independently of men, or the social and political movement based on this idea.” This definition of girl power subtly encapsulates the popular transformation of the women’s liberation movement into a heavily psychologised, consumer-friendly, self-esteem movement. Feminism is implicitly reduced to an “idea” that girls and women should be confident, make decisions, and achieve “things” without male assistance.”
