What idiot called it "The masculine tendency to suppress all emotional and nurturing impulses" and not "Scrotal eclipse of the heart"?

@repeatro I have less a problem with the emoji than with whqt it says about your current experience with the dark aether 😅

@repeatro oh no, not the sick emoji D:

I’m officially done with takes on AI beginning “Ethical concerns aside…”.

No! Stop right there.

Ethical concerns front and center. First thing. Let’s get this out of the way and then see if thre is anything left worth talking about.

Ethics is the formalisation of how we are treating one another as human beings and how we relate to the world around us.

It is *impossible* to put ethics aside.

What you mean is “I don’t want to apologise for my greed and selfishness.”

Say that first.

Fellow toy nerds. My uncle tasked me with restoring this family heirloom. Do we know what _brand_ of this is?
My gut says something West German. #toys

Is there a name for the kind of story that's like, a bunch of guys brought together into a situation, but it turns out there's some mastermind who brought them all together, generally to get revenge on them all for something they all played a part in?

@alina perfect! 👀👀👀

The German word for a gay man, *Schwul*, is attested since the 1840s in Berlin. It goes back to an adjective *schwül* that referred to weather and meant 'sultry, close, oppressive, muggy'. This was a kind of joke on the euphemism *warmer Bruder*, 'warm brother'. *Schwul* is cognate with Eng. *sweltering* and Sw. *sval*.

@RhinosWorryMe interesting!

For every time you boost this post, nothing of note will happen.

If you are married or in a long term relationship living with someone for years how did you meet your partner?

(Pick whatever fits best)
(Not everyone needs or wants this kind of relationship but I'm curious about how those who did and found it paired up.)

@alina I'm looking respectfully 👀

@jalefkowit that was a cool read.
Though sad that the big war rigs wouldn't work :(

“What the wasteland warlord actually wants is a platform that is robust, easy to repair, fuel efficient when compared to its payload capacity, which can move lots of cargo and people and which can be fitted with heavier weapons.

And behold, providence offered forth the perfect vehicle of its wrath and fury: the Toyota Hilux.”
