This makes no sense

[maxknightley]

it literally could not be more straightforward

[thatguyfromthatwebsite]

It literally doesnt make sence, both have the same value, they're both $30

[sapper-in-the-wire-old]

I think the failure of many people to grasp an incredibly simple, barebones metaphor is demonstrating implicit bias very well

This dude straight up stated the fucking answer and still can’t understand it, because he’s expecting the answer to be his own views lmao

[thatguyfromthatwebsite]

No im not expecting anything its just a badly frammed metaphor

[sapper-in-the-wire-old]

Bro you said the answer. Both have the same value despite different sizes. It’s simple. Basic. Elementary.

[thatguyfromthatwebsite]

But it never says that, it just asks you wich one is greater and the text ends there, wich leads you to thinking that one indeed has greater value then the other, and that the one with the greater value is the answear

[sapper-in-the-wire-old]

It asks you which one has the greater value and what is the answer to that question?

[thatguyfromthatwebsite]

Im not about to argue over a focken tit size metaphor

[sapper-in-the-wire-old]

Never underestimate the lack of reading comprehension on this site lmfao

“Even if the Republican Congress stands up to Trump on the slush fund, it doesn’t appear to be preparing to scrutinize, let alone unwind (if it’s possible) the corrupt release of the IRS’ claims against Trump and fam. It’s a huge giveaway — $100 million, by some estimates — under extraordinarily corrupt circumstances. The improper leaking of Trump tax returns by an IRS contractor isn’t a proper justification for dropping all of the IRS claims against Trump, let alone other civil and criminal claims the government may have had against him or his family members.”

Wow what a weekend!

We had well over 1500 guests and over a hundred exhibitors & vendors. There were 17 scheduled workshops & presentations, plus MDCon, a game room, consignment, and more.

I walked 20 miles inside the convention center, talked until I lost my voice, spent far more than I should have, and gave away hundreds of stickers.

I exhibited my PikaPC prototype and phase 2 board stack, as well as my Wrap030 project with some terminals.

If you couldn't make it to the show, recordings of the presentations will be posted over the coming weeks to the official VCF Southwest YouTube channel. I know I'll be watching the recorded presentations; I was so busy with my own exhibit I missed all of them!

hello fellow artists. google has fallen. pinterest/duckduckgo AI filters don't work. do not despair; here is a list i made of places to find reference images without having to sift through piles of worthless garbage. (for future editing convenience i am just linking my blog post on dreamwidth.)

✨ good places to find art reference that are not full of AI trash 🌈

[zanthiakhalaplace]

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I have been despairing as it is so hard now to find references and photos of succulents and other things for my designs!! T_T

🧵 THREAD: This #PrideMonth, don’t forget that the fight for queer liberation didn’t start or end with marriage equality.

💪✨ We need to keep fighting for our rights.

Here’s are a few examples:

💋 Before the 2003 Supreme Court ruling in Lawrence v. Texas, same-smex smexual activity was illegal in fourteen U.S. states, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. military

👶 Before 2015, LGBTQ+ couples couldn’t adopt in all 50 states. Before the Supreme Court ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges, laws varied wildly by state.

🏳️‍🌈 Before 1973, the American Psychiatric Association listed homosmexuality as a ‘mental illness.’ In December 1973, a vote was successfully held to remove it.

🗳️ Before 1974, there were no openly gay elected officials. That changed with Kathy Kozachenko, who became the first openly gay American elected to public office in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

🎖️ Before 2011, “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” banned LGBTQ+ people from serving openly in the military.

💍 Before 2015, LGBTQ+ couples couldn’t get married in all 50 states. At the time, laws varied by state, and while many states allowed for civil unions for same-sex couples, it created a separate but equal standard.

💼 Before 2020, employers could legally discriminate against queer and trans employees. It wasn’t until the U.S. Supreme Court held that an employer who fires or otherwise discriminates against an individual simply for being gay or transgender is in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

I think this is also important for people who are young enough to not remember when we didn't have these protections.

While it's amazing that some folks can't imagine a world without these rights, it's important to be aware of how nascent these wins are, and by extension, how fragile they are

for whatever reason tumblr has flagged this post from a deleted blog as explicit so I can't even reblog it anymore which is a shame because it's one of my absolute favorites
