  • Gish galloping I think? If they're repeatedly asking you to prove the argument false that falls under sealioning too. It's also a very common tactic for some trolls to pretend to be civil in order to bypass suspicion.

  • Exposure to the Upside Down just ages you like that

  • I'm glad I never made an account on Reddit. The whole vibe of the site just throws me off completely. The snark subs were one of those reasons

  • My mum said if I were a boy, my name would've been Daniel

  • I never even knew! Awesome!!

  • That moment when I'm more mature than someone who is almost 80 years old. Weird uncomfy vibes, man

    1. Nobody tells me what to do or think. I'm a rebel with her own thoughts and opinions.
    2. The Core is one of my fave sci-fi films of all time. I'm aware of the ratings and how it isn't scientifically accurate but it's a film! Suspension of disbelief
  • I'm gonna go there, eat as many free bananas as I can because wasting food is ew, and use my glowing radioactive body to fuel a sweet rave beach party

  • I don't have to meet a Nazi to know they're a Nazi. Just as I don't need to personally meet a cobra to know that what I'm looking at is a venomous snake belonging to the genus Naja.

    fantastic example of propaganda designed to create conflict and distrust amongst a community

    You just described Nazi ideology

  • Yupperdoodles!

    If anything Elon did it with even more vigour than Hitler. And you have to consider Elon Musk himself. He supports the AfD and gives Nazis safe spaces on his platform. I still remember when people tried to gaslight everyone by claiming he wasn't doing a Nazi salute, using still images of left wing politicians simply reaching out their hand as their "why aren't you calling them Nazis? You must be a hypocrite" excuse. Usually under the false guise of "I'm just asking questions" or "I'm neutral on the whole thing". It was really stupid because that wasn't even remotely the same thing but they thought they were being really clever. Anyone else remember that? It was nuts how far people went to defend him while Elon only sees them as sources of profit and nothing more

  • They couldn't resist making even the arrow look like a sieg heil. The arrow!

  • Great job. Make the bully realise no one likes him and won't come to his parties

  • YESSSSSSS FINALLY A NEW ACE COMBAT GAME! This looks so sick oh my god!

    I enjoyed Ace Combat 7 so much it's not even funny. It reminded me somewhat of my favourite game in the series which is Ace Combat 3. I loved that game so much I downloaded the Japanese version of it and patched it so I could appreciate the full game and the story it had to tell which got cut in the European version. Am hyped for this new instalment and was wondering if they were using UE5 based on the graphics but it looks like they're using an in-house engine this time. Either way looks like it's gonna be another big hit

  • Measles scares the crap out of me. Not only can you die or get serious complications from the initial infection but there's this super scary disease you can get years later when the virus reawakens. The disease is called Subacute Sclerosing Panencephalitis (SSPE) and it has a 95% fatality rate. 95! That's extremely scary and only makes me more relieved I've been vaccinated. The fact it's entirely preventable yet is making the rounds again in the US due to a corrupt and inherently stupid excuse of an administration is infuriating

  • Being anti-Nazi isn't propaganda any more than being anti-genocide is propaganda. Being anti-Nazi and anti-genocide means you're a normal and reasonable person. I'll happily rebel against systems which are corrupt.

  • At first I was annoyed that Imgur got blocked for people in the UK. Now I'm relieved. Something something Nazi bar...

  • I love how you described it. Honestly the fact you feel this much empathy for a rock says you're a highly empathetic and kind person!

  • Oh my god I'm the same too so I totally get you. I still eat with this fork and spoon I've had since I was 6ish? I also have this beautiful little egg spoon that looks like it belongs in an antiques shop. It has this really nice vintage pattern on it. It's comforting and seems to make everything taste better doesn't it?

  • Those look wonderful. I'm so sorry for your loss. It's beautiful that your sister gave them to you so long ago and that they've stayed with you all these years. They carry so much love and so many memories. I'm really glad you still have them

    What are the most sentimental items to you and why?

    I have a bunch of them, mostly stuff from particularly nostalgic periods in my life. I get sentimental so easily haha. I still have this really old fleecy coat I've had since I started school. I'd never give it up even though it's not my style anymore as I mostly wear puffer coats now
