replies to this saying this is proof that Americans are Uniquely Stupid are actually going to drive me crazy

people cannot imagine that the poll designers may deliberately invoke such a result. theyre just nice neutral objective guys. its the people who are wrong

anyone doing instrument design professionally knows this

Kafka understood that an even greater indignity than being turned into a giant insect was still being required to go to work afterward.

thats from jacking off too hard.

is that what those triangles are or what

and like you said. here i am, thrown into Society, and i dont recall being presented with terms

their mom and dad and teacher might well have been racist and homophobic but theyd have gotten in trouble for saying those things

the r-slur? every other word. nobody blinked

the magic circle -is- strikingly similar to the idea of social contract, though

suboptimal canthal tilt

Yes Mr. President. We are strategypilled planecels sir. We are airmogging them sir.

They've been talking like that about trans people for awhile now.
