… Ok, fair. 11,000 years was the wrong cut-off date. 12 - 13,000 years would have illustrated my point better.

Not even anywhere near that long. There have been humans for probably more than 200,000 years. Probably more. It gets confusing when you go back that far. But our written history only accounts for maybe 10,000 of those years. So 5% of total human history, if we take the minimum estimate of what it takes for us to be human. We have no evidence to support the fact that human advancement even lasts as long as written history. I mean, shit… the Romans had central heating and cement, and then they died out and we forgot how to do those things for 1,000 years. Our knowledge, and the acquisition of same is not exactly linear. Lots of fits and starts over the course of the various human civilizations that have occurred.
What happened 11,000 years ago? I mean, we’ve got some pottery fragments. Other than that, ???
Depends on your definition of “long-term”. The biggest accomplishments of Man have been acknowledged for maybe 10,000 years at the very extreme limits. 10,000 years is not even a drop in the bucket of geological or celestial time. So it very much depends on your perspective.
'Cause I’m drunk on a Thursday (Friday very early in the morning), and I’ve lost control of my life.
I’d watch that tape.
See - shit like this is why I don’t really get my hopes up for the UAP hearings. Trump randomly throws out nuclear secrets just to impress people, because he’s a dumb piece of shit. Does anybody really think that idiot could keep his trap shut about proof of alien life?
MLA format would be something like this:
Maneuver, The Picard. The Delusion. Picard, 2023.
Then, in your paper, to reference it, just write “(Maneuver 2023)”.
… Or you could just read a history book that wasn’t written by a Mao fanboi.
First time on the internet?
It’s kind of shocking to see a politician standing by their principles, and stepping away from a position of power when their priciples clash with the stance of the organization they were a part of. Good for him.
Hey - I read through some of your post history to get the back story. I know we’re strangers, but I just wanted to say that I’m proud of you, and I’m happy that you’re seeing positive progress on your journey, even if it’s just a “simple win”. It’s rough not being able to count on your parents to have your back. I hope you have someone else in your life to at least partially fill that hole, but if not… just keep posting, and keep going. Strangers on the internet being proud of you and happy for you is a poor substitute for parental affection, but hopefully it’s at least something. You got this. <3
I mean, that’s just realpolitik. It’s more advantageous for Ukraine to have Russian nazis attacking Russia than it is to denouce them and deprive them of an operating base. Ultimately, the Russian Volunteer Corps’ interests are aligned with Ukraine’s interests in that they both want to depose Putin. As odious as it is, it’s the way global politics are done.
Translation: Bjørn Gulden is putting out feelers to see if Kanye is still universally hated for his antisemitic comments so he can decide whether it would be a good business decision to reinstate the Yeezy line.
Nah, your weird attempts at persuasion via stilted language
I’m not sure you know what the word “stilted” means.
are real fuckin tiring already and I just joined this conversation.
Ok. Well, you’re under no obligation to post. Thank you for your contribution, though.
Ok, so I guess we can add “poor reading comprehension” to the list.
I did not make excuses for nazis. The person that I was responding to made an incredibly slippery slope argument, and I was using hyperbole to point that out. If you don’t understand that, I suggest you take a remedial class in English at your local community college.
No, I had very good reason to insult them. If you would like to know my reasons, I’m more than happy to discuss it.
So, does that mean that you cannot articulate an answer, or just that you don’t choose to?
Everyone that disagrees with @bucho@lemmy.one is insane and deluded, a bedtime story for smug crybully liberals.
Well, I didn’t say that. You did. And I disagree with it. What I said is that “hexbearians” are generally delusional, and I feel pretty vindicated in that assessment by the many, many posts by them in this thread. As an example of delusion, you decided that you know enough about me to infer that I believe that everybody whose opinions differ from my own must be delusional, despite very little evidence to back that claim up.
Fucking rich that you cry about “combativeness” when you lead with the above post.
Pointing something out that is true is not crying. And yes. You’re very combative.
I love this guy’s channel. Two of my other favorite things he’s done are: Uppest Case / Lowest Case, and that time he Reverse Emulated a NES.
