That’s not a source, that’s a newspaper. Newspapers publish articles, which are sources. Cite an article.

I don’t have access to them, I’m in Australia. I need a source.

You should watch Infinity Train and buy an epilator. That’s what I did when I was a baby trans. Epilators have a bit that goes “brrrr” and pulls out your leg hairs. They’re great, but expect pain. Infinity Train stars a teenage girl who’s the perfect amount of autistic and emotionally repressed to be a massive trans mood. You’re gonna love her.

I want to make that part of My worldview but first I need a source

I can’t keep myself from sleeping

As a friendly reminder, large language models are pedophiles and murderers and shouldn’t be anywhere near kids.

There are two ways to remove Trump from office. Vote. Gun. I support both.

Russian soldiers shouldn’t invade Ukraine, and if they do, they should be shot. Ukrainian soldiers are the best ones to do that job. I don’t want Ukrainians to have to fight to survive, but I don’t see a way out except by fighting. The Ukrainians need to make the Russian soldiers scared to attack, and we need to help them. Only then will Putin negotiate to end the war.

Am I the cops or the guy smoking?

I taught an ape to play Minecraft

The moment from the video that really convinced Me that Kanzi understood the game was when Kanzi was playing online with a human, and the human picked up an item that Kanzi wanted. And Kanzi went apeshit! He got really upset that the human had stolen his item in the game. An emotional reaction like that is only possible if you understand the game.

Chimps can’t use grammar, but bonobos can play minecraft.

So you think revealing someone’s real name to the internet without their consent is okay?

Take a decision like moving house. When bees want to move their hive, they swarm. When other bees notice a swarm starting, they have to make a decision to swarm or not to swarm too. If enough bees to set up a new colony swarm, they’ll pack up and move and set up a new hive. But if they don’t reach critical mass (or if humans intervene and keep the queen at home) they won’t be able to make a new hive, so they stop swarming. In this way, the biggest decision a beehive typically faces looks an awful lot like a political rally in a democracy.

Are you trying to doxx Me?

You’ve been advocating for not voting for the Republicans or the Democrats, which according to the mathematics of FPTP, is saying you have no preference and you’re an apolitical, regardless of your intentions.

Bees are actually a democracy, the workers don’t serve the queen. Think about when a family is driving home from school and the kids start chanting “I want McDonald’s!” Now imagine the kids are the ones driving the car. That’s bees. They’re getting that McDonald’s. The queen doesn’t get any say.

Congratulations on having the correct opinion on Controversial Topic, friend!

Yeah, I don’t think humans are ever getting all the way to antibiotics and moon landings without first using religion to acquire that fundamental knowledge which is so useful for survival. Jewish people don’t eat pigs because they carry disease. Indigenous Australians care for the environment so well because of their totemic connections to it (I could write a whole comment about this alone, let Me know if you want to hear more). Newton discovered gravity while looking for beauty in the Lord’s works. Greeks sacrificed foods to the gods, and thereby ensured their productive capacity always exceeded demand, limiting overpopulation.

Kill the first religions, and you either delay religion a few hundred years, or stunt humanity at the stone age forever.

I’m not gonna say never, because this planet’s got a few billion years left in it yet, and that’s a longass time, but I don’t think they’d resort to industrial technology in the next, say, ten thousand years. Industrial technology is only one branch of the “tech tree”, so to speak, and it’s not the direction Indigenous technology was headed.

Indigenous technology was already very advanced, with large scale sustainable agriculture systems that were deeply integrated into the environment. When the white colonists arrived, they said the land was “like a park estate”. They believed the land had randomly just grown into manicured grasslands ideal for hunting game. But a few decades after they prevented Indigenous people from practicing their traditional land management through controlled burns, the grasslands turned into rainforests. Turns out, they’d been using fire to prevent the growth of scrub and maintain a mosaic of grasslands and forests that made it maximally easy to hunt animals like the kangaroo, while maintaining the wild population. It was agriculture without domestication. And it was so efficient, Indigenous Australians only had to work a few hours a day. They spent the rest of their time relaxing, discussing philosophy and the arts, and performing ceremonies. I wish My life was that nice!

At the time of colonisation, the recent trend was the increasing cultivation and selection of Indigenous plants for better yields. They were increasing their agricultural capacity and their population. I don’t think this would have lead to industrialisation, because industrialisation was a very miserable state of existence, as you’d know from any Dickens book. The First Australians wanted technology that made life better, not worse. I think they were heading for technologies we have yet to discover, which would have further improved their daily living situation.

Also, they were the first to invent flying machines.
