@RoninGrey Wholesome waifus!
@mrhorsetwat @37712 @VooDooMedic Each man will have it done to himself. No prison is more effective than the prison of the mind.
@VooDooMedic @Stahesh @mrhorsetwat @YoMomz This is the trick: Analyze the differences between the M/F brains, which do clearly exist if you look at the data included, and declare that they have "little overlap" or say they aren't "highly dimorphic."
They even said "It is therefore more appropriate and informative to refer to measures of the brain in quantitative ways," but they disingenuously use subjective measurements like "little" and "highly" to describe the difference in the abstract.
@VooDooMedic @Stahesh @mrhorsetwat @YoMomz Additionally, I looked at one of the studies that this female posted to attempt to advocate that male and female brains are different: https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.1509654112#abstract
They conclude that "Such a distinction would be possible only if sex/gender differences in brain features were highly dimorphic (i.e., little overlap between the forms of these features in males and females) and internally consistent (i.e., a brain has only “male” or only “female” features)."
@Stahesh @mrhorsetwat @VooDooMedic @YoMomz I just read some of the articles on yishengqingwa666's mastadon page not the least of which is the description which says "Mean old radfem nerd."
@yishengqingwa666 @VooDooMedic Why do you say that, especially the "genetic dead end" comment? You have no idea which of us are parents. Furthermore, you did not add anything meaningful with your implied generalization that males are parasites.
@Stahesh They're the government, and we let them.
@ButtWorldsMan The people who were influenced the most by Harry Potter were most likely those who were coming of age as the series came out who didn't consume any other reading material because they were complete NPCs who just read what was popular.
@ButtWorldsMan I get that it's a meme, but it's not a good comparison. Rowling wrote a coming-of-age novel series with a soft magic system inspired by pulp fantasy comics. Tolkien created a genre of literature and changed the way all authors look at world building.
And don't get me started on modern wiccans...
@ButtWorldsMan @RoninGrey @sardonicsmile I see by your statement that my original impression is vindicated.
@RoninGrey @ButtWorldsMan @sardonicsmile I don't even know who she is, and I don't think I'm missing out on anything thereby.
@Stahesh His posture is terrible. He's using his back instead of just his arms to curl, and his stance is ineffective.
@Pain66 "Did I ever tell you the definition of insanity?"
@VooDooMedic Breaking and entering?
@Twothousandshadows I encourage you to look into the cost of processing coinage chemically or via smelting for its base materials. I predict that you will find that the money and time you invest into the process is at best equivalent to the profit you would gain from doing so.
To your point: if the cost of acquisition > x3 the value, you won't turn a profit. It doesn't matter how much the intermediary step is worth if the net is negative.
@houseoftolstoy I appreciate you posting this. I have nothing to add at the moment.
@RoninGrey Its intentions are there, but it's failed on the execution.
@RoninGrey Adorable!
@ButtWorldsMan @MrpoopyButhole @Mike_Microwave Call it what you will, the lie of equality has a cost upon society.
@ButtWorldsMan Females throughout time have believed that undulating their bodies would affect change. Without a family to attend, how else will they bring meaning to their lives other than by showing their bodies off for attention?
Yes, I am THAT DoubleD.
No, I will not explain further.
