@el_manels @CassidyKeep @whstancil That's a very recent change in the usage of the word. It comes from anecdote as in, from a singular perspective. And when people are dismissing things as anecdotal that's what they mean. Wheras his information is professional in nature, based on enough interactions to be credible
@el_manels @CassidyKeep @whstancil That's not what Anecdotal means. It's not foolproof hard science, but it's the rough equivalent of a regional survey. Anecdotal would be, "I interviewed a guy and he said all that matters is X"

My new vella project is launching today. If you've like my previous stories, now you can get small chunks of other happenings in and around the Summoner-verse.
@JediAssasin117@HieronymusMcG@davidleavitt Yeah.... Not convincing. I'm sure they can shorten the batteries lifespan or some such, but not being able to charge your phone can be a lot worse. Hell... It's already shitty as hell you can't change out the batteries which would ameliorate the "battery damage" issue.
@HieronymusMcG@davidleavitt My brother tried to charge his phone with an offbrand lightning cable thise weekend. His phone said roughly, "This accessory is not compatible with your device."
@NomeDaBarbarian I always find those empty spaces fascinating. I have a constant desire to explore spaces and poke around but you can't do thay when spaces are crowded. So getting to see those big spaces empty always feels like freedom. A pass to explore without judgement.
@bigskyhawkdrvr@DanFitzWrites Eye color is one of those detaila that... Probably shouldn't be included a tenth as often as it is. But that might be the neurodivergance talking.
@befaithful10 No. Have you read the Bible? It's full of contradictory nonsense that would destroy any sense of legal cohesion. I mean... Name a more fractured incohesive religious body than christians. The bible has like 50 interpretations a verse.
@dongwon Yes. Please and also know that as a person who drives for their job, your unleashed dog is about as terrifying as an unwatched toddler. I really don't want to have to worry about hitting them. It's terrifying. I would never not feel guilty.
you don't know what someone else's dog is like! you don't know another person's experience with other dogs has been! protect wildlife and biodiversity! put your fuckin dog on a leash!
(also keep your cats indoors, pls and thank you)
@DanFitzWrites You know... Sexy really doesn't enter into what I like in music. But there's a powerful appeal in the vocals of Maria Franz from Heilung. I suspect it's the atavistic nature of the music.
@AuthorMattNiemi Not much. If you let youself think you have too much time it's easy to put everything off. But even inmortals have limited time because the moment to make change is now. Always now. So I'd keep trying to hekp people be the best version of themselves.
