  • TIL about the Kinsey scale. It would appear that yeah, I’m definitely a 0 by the description.

    But thinking about it, it makes sense. I’ve heard people say they “always knew they were gay” and “they were born in the wrong body.” And it was things that were just natural.

    That’s the only way I can describe it. I’m attracted to women. I’ve always known that, and no matter how hard I try, it’s impossible to imagine non-women to be sexually (and romantically) attractive.

    Like there’s just something there that stops it going any further. Like, hell, a woman that visually has a body that can indisputably only be a woman but then talks with a baritone voice it’s instant off (there’s several comedies where this sort of character is used).

    What’s cool though is that if I’m that sure about myself, there is no doubt in my mind that other people know what their attractions are, and there is no reason for anyone to doubt a person’s (honest) attractions.

    The meme is “science guy doing science”

    The joke is that the DC in “Washington DC” also stands for “Direct Current.” Direct Current is usually stable in a circuit.

    What our Punny scientist did is make Washington “Alternating Current.” By creating an oscillating image of the Washington DC buildings.

    It’s a very funny shitpost for electronic nerds.


  • The declaration really can’t be highlighted like that. It undermines the gravity of the letter, but I understand people don’t like to read.

    Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed.

    Essentially, they say that people are willing to endure suffering for the sake of not having to change their lives. But Then it follows that with

    But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism

    When all people can no longer ignore that the government is forcing everything to have an absolute ruler, the people will come to the conclusion that the government must end by force.

    While a lot of people agree with this, it’s not enough. When I go to work, everyone is still going about their day like nothing has really changed. Too many people still have shelter, food, and medicine. That’s about to change now. And when people experience that, that is the time they will overthrow.

    The reason they want revolutionary violence to occur earlier than later is because they still have the opportunity to turn the most brain washed against the rest of us.
