[Alexander Highcliffe @Xander_J_C]

I once found a pile of self printed porn VHS tapes along side a taped called 'is the moon landing fake'

Not kidding btw

[The Happy Smiler @artchad]

Generation dividing question

Have you ever found porn in the woods?

[Alexander Highcliffe @Xander_J_C]

I tried 30mg adhd meds - too strong

I tried 20mg - too weak

But I'm not allowed to go on 25smg, unless I pay a doctor £150 to write me a slip saying 'let's try 25'

All medicine should be over the counter for people with an IQ above 120

Is there any space/community for Europeans who are rationalist adjacent?

Cause the amount of times I've heard my Eurobros say 'god I'd love to move to sanfran to be in the comunity more' is insane - I feel like there's a huge untapped interested for founding a community HERE

@TheEcho13 Would it therefore follow that any girl who wants housework, dates planned, complements and hugs is entitled?

[Alexander Highcliffe @Xander_J_C]

I've always been a dreamer for the future. The biggest thing my ADHD meds did was turn those dreams from a fantasy coping mechanism for failure in the present to real planning.

I genuinely can't express how spiritually freeing it is to say I'll do a thing then do it.

[Alexander Highcliffe @Xander_J_C]

Children should be texting,& building in minecraft & partying & watching shows & coding mods & arguing in fandoms & walking with podcasts & learning instruments & getting into drama & grinding RPGs & learning history.

Not staring at an endless feed of nothing.

[Alexander Highcliffe @Xander_J_C]

Couldn't ask for a better example of why this policy was no needed.

Imagine a CHILD, who's imagination is supposed to be running wild, who's reaction to getting more free time is bored apathetic indifference because their brain is that addicted to slop

BBC: “What was your screen time?”

Student: “Nine hours.”

BBC: “You’re gong to have a lot more time to fill. What will you do?”

Student: “Stare at a wall.”

I'm on draft 2 of a paper arguing for a new classification of Autism within the DSM - I'm arguing for a model half way between the 'disorder' and 'neurodivergence' models.

If anyone wants to read and give me feedback hmu

[Alexander Highcliffe @Xander_J_C]

Politics aside, the fact that they wanted to put on an event in front of the white house, but there was construction on the lower half of the building so they had to put up a fucking carboard cutout is objectively hilarious

[Covie @covie_93]

So Zelensky desecrated the White House by not wearing a suit but this is ok?????

[Alexander Highcliffe @Xander_J_C]

Notice how similar in structure this argument is to the Conservative "I dont have white privilege cause I grew up in a trailer" argument

[lunatic ☭⚢🏳️‍⚧️ @lunamoder]

nobody understands you actually have to be a man to have male privilege. a man of status and money.

what fucking privilege does a dysphoric self hating depressed girl rotting in her room all day pre transition with no money no connections have?

thats canon tgirl experience btw.

[Alexander Highcliffe @Xander_J_C]

@AFkokogems @BrandiKruse @ADFLegal sports DO imply consent. if you take a boxing match you're consenting to getting punched. If you take a wressling match you're consenting to getting your crotch grabbed, face sat on, and 100 other things.

[Alexander Highcliffe @Xander_J_C]

As someone who actually grapples, seeing terfs try and spin this case into sexual assault is hilarious. Because grabbing your opponent's crotch is literally just part of wressling.

if you don't like that, pick a different sport

[Brandi Kruse @BrandiKruse]

NEW: Prosecutors say they will not charge trans wrestler with alleged sexual assault of Kallie Keeler because of "case law concerning consent in athletic contests." If only the state of Washington had given Kallie the option to consent to being touched by a male.

[Alexander Highcliffe @Xander_J_C]

The people who post things like this, couldn't give less of a fuck about European culture. They just larp as an excuse to push ethnat racism. Here's what a genuine love of European traditional music looks like.

"white people have no culture"

Meanwhile ACTUAL white culture:

Do people not know that metaphysics exists??? like weather or not X constitutes Y necessarily requires an at least partially metaphysical answer

What is sex? it it real? if so how real? if so what is it's referent?

Like are you just uninterested in those questions?

[Q @gigapooncel]

not believing that medical transition changes sex is science denial

[Alexander Highcliffe @Xander_J_C]

Prime example of how most peoples minds work on associations rather than propositions

This person clearly wanted to express that straight pride people don't like women, just like gay men, and vaguely associated venns with the concept of 2 things having something in common

Daniel C dennet's typography is beautiful, its always a joy re reading him

[David Perell Clips @PerellClips]

Academics write for each other, not for people.

Steven Pinker has spent over four decades doing the opposite, and thinks current academic writing is "enormous wasted effort."

"There's an awful lot of brilliant work, really smart people in academia. Why are they doing it? Just to entertain each other? Taxpayers pay for it. It should be accessible. Why should I have to read a paragraph five or six times?

It gets under my skin when academics devote so much brainpower into the scholarship and then just blow off the essential task of letting the world know what you've done."

Pokemon is the highest grossing media franchise of all time btw, and it's last game had a budget of around 13 million.

There is 0 reason it shouldn't be getting GTA level funding

[Alexander Highcliffe @Xander_J_C]

I genuinely can't understand why Pokémon hasn't just made an open world MMO and become the most popular thing ever
