@tatttletale_tw @mysty_man @nayeonquacks @Meelsie143 ...but nobody has no idea because everyone's been disabled
English
@tatttletale_tw @mysty_man @nayeonquacks @Meelsie143 By your definitions, the vast majority of people are disabled. The word is bursting at the seams youre stretching it so far.
English
@mysty_man @nayeonquacks @Meelsie143 disabled, then so is zuko.
and i do think the other commenter made a good point—even if we ignore the possibility of chronic pain and affected vision, PTSD certainly is a disability. so either way, in my opinion as a psych student and chronic pain haver, zuko is disabled. 3/3

@hilosfemi2 @user7643789327 You can't honestly not see how feeding the cycle is counterproductive.

@IsaacKing314 @aw_wally @limosalapponica Is this insistence an online thing? Or like... a group of terminally online friends? I have just never in my life actually experienced literally any pressure to adopt this language lol.
English
@aw_wally @limosalapponica What I dislike about the language changes that came out of wokeness is the damage they do to intergroup communication, and the insistence that everybody else must use them too.
English
"Folx" was arguably where wokeness jumped the shark. The other terminology changes had plausible reasoning: Yeah, "guys" actually is exclusionary. Yeah, "Indian" is just factually inaccurate. This was the first one that was purely and openly nothing more than ingroup signaling.

is folks not gender neutral why did you spell it like that

@Imdachipman @JonKatz79 How do governments know if scientists don't? Lol
English
@JonKatz79 Maybe true for scientists but I bet my middle nut certain world governments know exactly what's down there.

@RoyerSteele @SandyofCthulhu @Hieraaetus No, it's culturalist. There was and is nothing in the DNA of the natives to make them bad people. Their culture, however, was horrifically murderous, and one of the best things that ever happened them was to be colonized by Christian Europeans.
English
People only struggle to 'interpret' this scene because they are trying to wring out some simple, straightforward didactic message.
It's a piece of classical tragedy and nemesis - the cruelties and perversions of the Mayan civilization are finally going to come crashing down around their heads; all their temples, their rituals, everything the movie has centered on, are about to be swept away; at the same time, this process is going to be one of enormous destruction and bloodshed, between the diseases, the wars, everything that is to follow. This is, in a real sense, poetic justice against the Maya, but the human collateral will be enormous, plausibly including Jaguar Paw's own people. The final scene radically relativizes the entire movie.
Mac 🍃@ihymacc
I don’t think I will ever understand this particular scene…
English
@SandyofCthulhu @Hieraaetus I will say only this: in Spain, there was a struggle between those who wanted to exploit the Indians and those who wanted to advocate for them. I seriously doubt any such thing would have happened if the Indians had invaded Spain.

@dieworkwear Isnt there value in just... not taking shit so seriously though

If you want to wear USA-themed socks, Dapper Classics has navy over-the-calf socks with subtle white and red pindots. The effect will be much more subtle and less child-like. They are also made in the USA. Wear them with proper dress shoes, not dress sneakers.

@cptknight_tm @barbarismcrit Would you say that the general population has a good understanding of... anything? As a whole? "Just get people to understand AI" is a pipe dream.
English
@barbarismcrit Atom bomb? C'mon. Deepfake risks are legit but solvable. Literacy-first governance actually works - when people understand AI, society self-regulates. Wild concept for the panic crowd.
English
I’m an AI critic who is also a staff software engineer. I am extremely familiar with what AI can and can’t be useful for. It’s best use cases are not as a consumer LLM product for writing prose or generating images and video, which is the main way it is being sold to the public. The downstream negative effects of data centers, as well as the obvious issues with giving anyone the ability to create realistic deepfakes of living people doing anything you want them to do are enough to demand that AI be highly regulated. It is like arguing that every person have access to an atom bomb. It’s best utility is on closed datasets not essay writing and insert yourself into your favorite marvel movie.
Mike Cottone@M_Cottone
This is a good example of a viewpoint I see commonly in AI skeptics/critics. “I haven’t found a way that AI is useful to me” == “AI isn’t useful” People didn’t know they needed the internet (or electricity) before they understood what it could do for them
English
Ok I’m confused I guess, yall help me out lol.
Are the pro consensus board crowd saying nfl teams should draft based on that instead of their actual board that includes, character reports, inside information, and their team specific data points?
Just trying to get a grip on this conversation
Peter Schrager@PSchrags
One big talking point from this Draft is the teams that took their guys and trusted "their" boards vs "consensus". Bears, Rams, Jags, and most notably -- 49ers -- had the largest Deltas between their picks and where the Consensus Big Boards listed. All playoff teams in '25. 🤷🏼♂️
English
@CaptHeatCheck @SamMonsonNFL @ms021262082 But the dollar values increase as they get closer to the consensus.
English
@SamMonsonNFL @ms021262082 Again, so in all 5 scenarios, the guy that jumps up the board ends up earning more on their next contract than then fallers.
English
There IS a consensus board. It's been shown to have real power when you go against it by major reaches.
Posts like this show an ignorance of the topic at hand.
End of missive.
AngryScoutVet@NotSoAngryScout
Not true. There is no consensus NFL board. All 32 teams have their own board. This is the media trying to make it seem their like outlet’s board is general market value.

Fernando Mendoza, the @Raiders’ presumed No. 1 pick in Thursday’s NFL draft, is donating $500,000 and launching a fund in support of research into multiple sclerosis, an ailment that his mother lives with.

The sneak attack on the media today hurt the sincerity of Mike Vrabel’s message bostonglobe.com/2026/04/21/spo…

@offballfeed I had to listen back and write it up. Look at my timeline now

FYI - Mike Vrabel did answer more questions about the situation after his opening statement.
