  • Y'know. Imagining the texture of yogurt covering the texture of steak anywhere near that area of my body is horrifying. Thanks, I hate it xD

  • Roses are red

    He wants us to respect him

    But:

  • I remain unconvinced that it's since the 2000s, mostly because this shit started in '81 at the latest. If you blame any modern societal problem on Reagan, you will almost always be right, at least in USAmerican

  • Ahh, yes, Anon Edward Mousely, I know him well. Decent dude.

  • I didn't know that was a mystery that needed solving, but interesting nonetheless

  • That certainly is a sentence.

  • It's about the same is what I was saying, yeah

  • I mean... American minimum wage comes out to $1256 monthly (assuming full-time, and that's pre-tax). Community college comes in pretty cheap at $450 a month on average, but four year universities come up to $4,800 on average (assuming full-time enrollment for both). The cheapest MD programs I can find are still close to twice the minimum wage, and that's assuming you get in-state tuition, since out of state is usually 2-3x more.

  • That's the kinda mentality that lead to the fall of Yugoslavia

  • Yeah, there's a guy around the fediverse named CallMeAl. His name is just Al. Doesn't help that his pic is some kinda computer-ey thing, but yeah. People give him shit pretty regularly

  • Given Weird Al, someone who is a really well-known artist, gets about a sandwich a year off Spotify... Exactly 0 from Spotify.

    If we mean more generally, including album sales, probably everyone that's gotten radio play has had that much in sales, at least. Whether they got any of that money is up for debate, though.

    This is why I use bandcamp where possible. I at least know the artist is getting way more than they ever would off of me streaming it.

  • Idk, seems like there might be at least one onion involved in this story. How can we be sure it's not THE onion?

  • Isn't noted band with an openly bisexual lead singer Green Day performing as the opening act?

    Actually a few of the acts are openly queer, or explicitly queer-friendly? Or, like Bad Bunny, planning to perform in a dress to pay homage to drag. So yeah, it's pretty gay (affectionate)

  • It's kind of a fairly standard headline, nothing really absurdist, or "weird" about it is why, at least to my reading. A lot of submitted ones do kinda teeter the line of being a little too standard, but this one is just a fairly straightforward headline about a prescription drug getting prescribed more because of the adult population.

    Interesting info, just not really on-theme, that's all

  • Honestly I didn't even see the date, just saw the headline and new what I had to do xD

  • Only connotatively, but yeah xD

  • Why did you bring birth defects up if marriage is the concern? You don't get birth defects from a wedding.

    Also in basically every state where it's illegal to marry your cousin it's illegal to have sex with them, too.

    (When I say basically I mean I'm too tired to check half of the US's laws on this, and the source I'm using says sexual contact is generally not permitted)

  • 25 US stated by my count, but also I let my ethics develop separately from the law. There's been a lot of very questionable things in the law in the past, and as such it's not exactly a trustable guide for ethics imo.

    That's not the point you presented here, though. The point you presented here was birth defects.

    The point you brought up there I still object to, though. While there can be power dynamics between cousins, it's fairly rare for those to continue into adulthood, and I have long taken the stance "I don't believe the state should have a say in what consenting adults do in the privacy of their own home."

    The line that's been drawn is people allowing their disgust to inform policy at best. If it were based in anything else the policies would be different.
