@ObscurCatharsis@ko_oneill@EFCevie it obviously does, the objective truth is just that the USA is one country. there are 44 in europe. we’re comparing one country with 44. obviously 44 distinct countries will have more variation. i’m from sheffield (uk), it’s a bit bloody different to athens lmao
Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas

@feinmhuinin So many young mothers comparing themselves unfavorably to their own mothers and wracked with guilt as a result and young fathers comparing themselves favourably to their own dads who did sweet FA in the home and expecting a medal
@SeanDubIreland@feinmhuinin two things can be true at once. it’s important for men’s mental health to be supported more, it’s also true that this specific post is a bit insensitive because it suggests it’s never been harder to be a father whilst referring to things mothers have always been expected to do
Wine is just wine to most Americans, and Grana Padano is as good as parmesan is as good as pecorino. But just see what happens when you say that Coke Zero is the same as Diet Coke. Like Robert Conquest said, everyone is an Italian about what they know best.
