Carrolade@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do you think early humans survived without water bottles? Did they just live next to water sources all the time?English7·17 days agoI was just gonna say, a squash that I cut in half, hollow out and dry is pretty low-tech stuff. Could probably use a coconut if you were in a pinch… Lot of options.
Carrolade@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is empathy based on a financial bell curve?English10·21 days agoThen you should hopefully already understand the multiple reasons anecdotal evidence is a poor way of trying to understand large groups of people, which is why we use statistical studies.
The people specifically in your community, engaging with welfare resources, are in no way an accurately representative sample of a larger social class in all areas. Your specific region likely has unique cultural factors at play. The subset of people engaging with welfare have unique economic factors.
Carrolade@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What are some good places/activities where a middle-aged man can make new friends?English10·23 days agoIf you want to start an irl group, yeah. If you’re joining an existing group, no though. Fully online is obviously the easiest place to find groups looking for players, but you can also head down to your local gaming store. I’ve seen bulletin boards before with flyers looking for players, but can probably just ask the people working there if they know of any.
Could also check online forums for your local community, maybe even make a post asking if any gaming groups have openings for irl players.

Carrolade@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK chemtrails were real: the US military admitted in 1976 to dropping active biological and chemical agents onto US cities for decades from land, sea and air without notification or consent.English11·29 days agoIf that’s really true, you could easily have copy/pasted your evidence. The only reason you wouldn’t is if you can’t. Which is why you just keep saying the same things like that will somehow change something.
Carrolade@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK chemtrails were real: the US military admitted in 1976 to dropping active biological and chemical agents onto US cities for decades from land, sea and air without notification or consent.English11·30 days agoReally? Then prove this:
remember how you pretended the documented, verified US government sources weren’t real
Unless you just made it up out of the blue, of course. You do that a lot. You just keep chanting how right you are, but never copy anything to actually prove it. Very weak, when anyone can chant anything.

If I was wrong and you could prove it, it’d be a win for you. Unless you actually just can’t, though.

Where in any of my (still unedited btw) comments did that happen? Or are you just making shit up again?

This is why you’ve had to do ninja edits to change what you were saying. Remember that part?
Carrolade@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK chemtrails were real: the US military admitted in 1976 to dropping active biological and chemical agents onto US cities for decades from land, sea and air without notification or consent.English11·30 days agoPlaying pretend in what way? I told you, as soon as you support your specific statements that you’ve made, or admit you were wrong, we’re cool. I don’t see what is being pretended.
Specifically, you saying “using weapons” in this case. The bacteria were not weapons. They were studying weapons, by using other bacteria that behave similar to weapons. I don’t think you actually care, but I do I’m afraid. Where in the report does it say weapons were released? Not studied, released?

I’m fighting against you. You thinking everything you say is a fact without having to prove it is a you problem. Doesn’t mean I have to go along with it. Nitpicking is about facts, you know. True/false.
Carrolade@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK chemtrails were real: the US military admitted in 1976 to dropping active biological and chemical agents onto US cities for decades from land, sea and air without notification or consent.English11·30 days agoI have no issues with you sticking to the facts. If you just did that, we’d have no issues, remember? It’s when you add things, remember your ninja edit to delete “radiological”? Don’t blame me for calling you out on this stuff. Or, y’know, just let me know why you like to twist things.
edit: btw, “sour lemons?” Are you actually an older person? I haven’t heard that one in ages.

I see we’ve regressed back to grade school. And you call me juvenile? lol I guess Trump does that one too, so you could also be really elderly.
Or, y’know, you could just admit you like adding things to your sources beyond what they actually say.
Carrolade@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK chemtrails were real: the US military admitted in 1976 to dropping active biological and chemical agents onto US cities for decades from land, sea and air without notification or consent.English11·1 month agoIn what way can context change the meaning of “releasing weapons” into something else?
I already told you several times, you take certain true things, mix them with lies, and then spin it together into your overall message. Then you do ninja edits when these are pointed out. Did you forget?
Carrolade@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK chemtrails were real: the US military admitted in 1976 to dropping active biological and chemical agents onto US cities for decades from land, sea and air without notification or consent.English21·1 month agoKinda hard to call it misdirection when I’m directly quoting you from a different comment you made and asking you to either support it or admit you were twisting words around. Seems like a pretty straight direction to me, no? I mean, if you really read it, it’d be pretty easy to say where in it you got that from.
Carrolade@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK chemtrails were real: the US military admitted in 1976 to dropping active biological and chemical agents onto US cities for decades from land, sea and air without notification or consent.English21·1 month agoI’m not asking you to distort anything. I’m asking you to tell me where in your sources it supports you when you said this:
admitted to using chemtrails to disperse biological weapons
Because what I read is another, much less dangerous bacteria was spread to study how spreading happened. And we can tell, too, because tons of people didn’t die, and weapons are for killing people. Make sense? Or you can just admit that you’ve been subtly twisting the truth to suit your ends.
Carrolade@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK chemtrails were real: the US military admitted in 1976 to dropping active biological and chemical agents onto US cities for decades from land, sea and air without notification or consent.English22·1 month agoIt doesn’t really matter if you care. Just stop making up things to add and stick to the true parts and everything will be fine. Can you do that maybe?
Carrolade@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK chemtrails were real: the US military admitted in 1976 to dropping active biological and chemical agents onto US cities for decades from land, sea and air without notification or consent.English21·1 month agoScaring me? More like offending me. I don’t like lies in my YSK subs. Like I said, if you had stuck to only the true parts of your posts, we wouldn’t be having this problem. Not that I expect you to really remember what I said anymore I suppose.
edit: We reached max comment depth after his next reply. lol So I’m continuing with him in a new comment thread. Shhhhhhh…
Even when I see Elrond in LotR, that’s actually just Agent Smith in a funny costume.
