B) Its always chicken time

Formal experiments make it so tempting to irritate followers with a conceit forcing unnatural snytax and wording on sentiments lacking in substantive meat. Rather than keeping a regular meter a proper expression of well-defined views has to conform to the structure of thought and proceed at the rhythm of actual news.

There's a linguist, Anne Cutler, who studied how everyday speech is affected by rhythm and rhyme. She wrote "The perception of rhythm in language". It's easy to read and it's well worth your time.

ITS EVOCATIVE! LIKE GREAT BIG HUGE BANANAS EXCEPT SHARP!

She started to transition after 5000 years. It's never too late.

I'm stealing this. Thanks.

I think Elon Musk has done irreparable damage to the tech industry.

Elon bought twitter in late 2022, fired 75% of the employees, and 'proved' the platform could limp along under the 'wear 4 hats at once' efforts of the remaining employees, and the rest of big tech got big ideas.

There are many intersecting elements at play between the tech market downturn in late 2022 and the interest rates hikes and the reduced need for online infrastructure post-quarantine and the advent of AI. But big tech are a bunch of homework-copying lemmings and that Reddit-brained manchild kicked over the first 6,000 dominos.

So what I think is that there's this default belief in patriarchy that men are superior to women and therefore the "masculine" sphere is superior to the "feminine" sphere. And so, as feminists have fought to expand the number of allowable female activities, men (on the aggregate over generations) have retreated from those activities because they're now seen as "feminine", and so partaking in them is incommensurate with their belief in their own superiority. And, unfortunately, as this has progressed, this has resulted in a lot of men sectioning themselves off from, frankly, everything that actually makes being alive worthwhile. It's a misery spiral, and the only way out is to abandon male supremacy.

#more women in higher education meaning fewer men is incredibly depressing to me. funny in a sad way#what happens when women will finally get into trades? will they just stop working
