    Part of the issue is the label genocide is applied so liberally as to lose meaning. We're seeing similar devaluation of previously potent labels like "fashist" It then becomes easy…

    Low IQ take. There are probably millions of child lemonade stands in the US. I think you must be referring to a story where one family was asked to take down theirs for some reason…

    I don't have sidewalks in front of my house but our neighbors all take walks - and walk to main street. A quiet street that sees a few cars an hour doesn't need a sidewalk to be wa…

    so funny to read the reactions here. "Puzzles are stupid and hiring is broken" without thinking about how to navigate a question like that. I think someone without an "aha moment" …

    As an immigrant to the US I feel similarly. The country has been wonderful to us and the negative things we hear domestically and abroad just don't track with our experience at all…

    I agree with you on everything except I don't understand why you are labeling the healthy alternative "toxic".

    In your comment and the ones responding to you there's an assumption that your partner's behavior is the bigger problem compared to your reaction to it. In my experience I've gener…

    Who cares? Is the article interesting/ relevant or not? If not, doesn't matter if it's ai slop or human slop. If yes the. It's good that the author could use AI to get it out vs no…
