Yeah, I had no idea what was going on until I read this comment.

Upon closer inspection the stripe is clearly white on the first image, but the second one really threw me off because it looks the same color as the floor. I'm also slightly colorblind so that probably doesn't help.

I'm personally a fan of the 12 hour format for casual conversation and 24h for anything else. 4 PM or 4 in the afternoon sounds better than 16:00 for casual speak imo.

But man, I'm bad with the 24h format lol. I often need to consciously correct myself in that 18:00 =/= 8 PM.

Oh! Its a mouth. I was so confused.

I mean hey, congrats on the weight loss. Nothing wrong with looking good for yourself.

It's okay, they only whip cows that are into that, otherwise they wouldn't cream.

(I copied this from my other comment, but it was very relevant to this one so I figured I'd say it here too.)

I do not mean to. I know its an issue and more attention needs to be brought to it because too many people—especially other men—don’t take it seriously at all and can even treat it as a good thing. I just don’t think now is the time to bring it up.

In a vacuum like that it sounds bad, yes. That wasn't the entire context though. What I do think women raping men is irrelevant to is the topic of women being too afraid to give compliments to random men in fear of getting assaulted. Which is the whole reason rape was brought up in the first place.

Like, the other comment said I marginalized half the population. I do not mean to. I know its an issue and more attention needs to be brought to it because too many people—especially other men—don't take it seriously at all and can even treat it as a good thing. I just don't think now is the time to bring it up.

Completely unrelated but I just want to say you have a good taste in pokemon.

You're not wrong! Also not super relevant here. This is like responding "all lives matter" to a black lives matter comment. Well, maybe not that bad, but I hope you get my point.

Often, I will reread the same paragraph a dozen times because I either fail to comprehend it, or because I can't help my mind from wandering. Sometimes my mind will wander to thinking about what might happen next, instead of just reading it.

If its a book or subject I'm really enjoying, this is a process I don't mind and even like doing. It's okay to just let your imagination run sometimes. But if it's a boring book, or it's something I'm totally uninterested in like required reading back in school, it's miserable and I've never been able to do it.

Unfortunately this means I'm terrible at research unless it's something I'm super interested in at the moment.

I did now, and it was much improved.

Yeah good catch, I used the completely wrong word there.

The capybara with airpods, lol. Are capybaras particularly popular with Gen Z?

It's interesting to me to see the airpods aren't even in its ears, which I take as the LLM not recognizing that the capybara's ears are ears. Or maybe it doesn't recognize that airpods belong in ears, and just sees that it generally goes on the side of the head where ears usually are. It really is fascinating technology, shame it's used in the way it is.

Oh wow, Xbox 360 Minecraft. That just unlocked some childhood memories. I no longer have a 360, or I'd gladly be playing it too. I guess I could look into emulators instead.

I vaguely remember seeing mods for Java edition that exist to bring old nostalgic Minecraft elements like the whole Xbox 360 UI and the old janky ass world gen to modern versions. I really ought to look into them at some point.

Ah yes, classic "everyone but me is the problem".

Overreaction of the century right there.

Yeah that's fair

Exactly. Its not about convincing non-believers, its about constantly reminding believers "you're right, atheists just want to sin, no need to think about it".

Try again with the word 'arm' in front.

I made the exact same mistake in my head before remembering the word nautical exists.
