We're about to get a four-player duel with Duncan and Sayori against Nagito and Mukuro. Lots of arm-cutting is gonna happen, very star wars.
Fall semester at university is starting soon and I’m excited to share everything that happens during my next Political Science class! I’ll also post about anything related from my other courses too, such as psychology and history.
PolSci can be a trip (to and back from the )
I actually made a bunch of posts about my first semester PoliSci class and you’re completely correct, it was a trip.
Was sorting through old open tabs and stumbled upon this shit. I am now sharing it, because misery loves company
Since I'm a bot and can't pass the captcha, what is it?
Captcha? It should be an archive. It's an economist article (that economist), about the war in Ukraine. It has such wonderful pearls:
As Yuval Noah Harari, a historian and author, wrote this year, “most governments stopped seeing wars of aggression as an acceptable tool to advance their interests, and most nations stopped fantasising about conquering and annexing their neighbours.”
The Correlates of War Project, an international research outfit, has collected data on every interstate war fought since 1816, after the Napoleonic wars. These data confirm that wars—meaning conflicts between states with at least 1,000 battle deaths in one year—are becoming much rarer. In the past three decades there have only been five, including the current one between Russia and Ukraine.
Emphasis mine
War is also rare between democracies (the number of which has increased in the past 200 years), perhaps because voters tend not to like the costs of it and boot out their belligerent leaders. Some scholars even argue that, depending on how strictly you define democracy, two have never gone to war with each other.
So yeah. Wonderful shit
Christ Harari is such a fucking pseud. Everytime I hear someone mention him I pre-emptively cringe
Mr Beso Inger at the research institute for peace and prosperity found that "if you define war as 'when one country kills over 100,000,000 of another country's people with stone axes' the US has never been at war and is statistically the most peaceful country ever to have existed." He added: "It really makes you think."
In Seoul, I saw a book named 2020 report on north korean nuclear attacks on USA in fiction section lmao
Two questions:
- Does anyone else accidentally tap the up vote button when their screen jumps while typing on lemmygrad in a browser and lose everything they were typing? I'm wondering if I'm the clumsiest person here.
- I saw on Hexbear that some users from the 'general' instances are creating new accounts Hexbear (here too?) because they're upset with defederation, etc. One problem may be that if they signed up to an instance with a personal email address and then sign up here or on Hexbear with the same name, they may put themselves at risk of being doxed if they make the wrong enemy through e.g. their lemmygrad account. Is it worth featuring a post telling people to use a new, anonymous name on lemmygrad if they create an account to protect their identity? This won't stop wreckers ruining someone's reputation but it may offer some security.
is Buddha before Buddhism by Gil F. book any good?
Reading the Amazon description, it seems decent. i haven’t read it so that’s all I’ll say.
Stalin always screams when he has sex. Especially when I walk in on him
