Thank you for clarifying, it seemed crazy high. I know the stereotypes but still.

That is a wild statistic! Is that study just in Italy or?

Ah I see, that makes a lot of sense. I don’t really watch tv, I pull out my phone when I eat food. Or I’m studying on my laptop and youtube is easy when I take a break. I guess computers are so portable now it’s really easy for me to hop on youtube rather than pay subscriptions or find torrents and go through a show.

A lot of my work also involves just sight and some mental power so having youtube running on a second monitor where I can glance occasionally keeps me going much longer than I would otherwise.

Haven’t heard a pewdiepie mention in years, but yeah, I agree. Add comedy and cars to the mix too though.

That’s true of everything on the internet these days though. I don’t think they overshadow the good, I think it’s more important than ever to seek out and appreciate the good.

Hey I don’t think anyone really needs content - it’s just something we like. As for what I like on there: Joe Scott, Andrew Huang, Ahoy, Philosophy Tube, Drew Gooden, Comicstorian, Drawfee, Hagerty, Engineering Explained, Throttle House, Tier Zoo, Foureyes Furniture, FUNKe, HiTop Films, In The Mix, Noodle, Internet Shaquille, LEMMiNO, Michael Reeves, MrMobile, Nakey Jakey, ReDriven, Not Just Bikes, Sarah-n-Tuned and I’m kinda tired of more names. But each of these is one of my great top tiers, and it’s so awesome that there’s this many (and more) people on there making great content. It’s okay to not want to engage in that though, I do get that.

This is a strange opinion, YouTube has an insane amount of content for just about everyone. There’s so many fantastic creators and it has just about the best edutainment content anywhere. Terribly managed and the platform itself sucks, but there’s an incredible amount of amazing content on there for free.

I mean they did say “you may be…” and then followed it up with advice to talk to a professional. I don’t think there was an attempt to diagnose here, even though I don’t agree with how the comment was worded. Personally, I think everyone should get tested to see what neuroatypicalities they have.

Now I’m no Honda fangirl. The 1.5L is their least reliable engine in a while and they don’t offer a manual Civic below the Si, which is very underpowered and underspecced for its price. They also have removed Civic features to put them in the Integra instead of just making the Integra better. I also think the Integra is overpriced and Acura doesn’t make much else that appeals to me. The new Accord is a borefest and they killed the Accord manual by saying there’s no consumer demand when they decide how many get produced and they sold every one that was produced. The Honda E I agree should’ve been way cheaper and simpler.

After all of that still, to say Honda hasn’t made a good car in 20 years is completely bizarre and incorrect. I would so much rather be in a Civic or CR-V today than a Corolla or RAV4. Personally, I avoided both and got a VW GLI but that’s besides the point.

I do office work and feel pretty bad if I skip breakfast, even if I pull an early lunch. That’s probably because I’m used to breakfast, but I still think it’s important enough to take 5 minutes at night to put oats in the fridge.

Well I mean you put oats in a jar overnight and take them to work or school in the morning. Easier still is keeping instant oats at work if you can. Breakfast is important man idk about skipping it everyday.

What leftists are shooting right wingers you fucking moron open your goddamn eyes fuck

If ICE breaks into your home, bodyslams you to the ground, cusses you out, breaks your bones, puts a knee on your neck and kidnaps your neighbours you can sue them for $50M or whatever you want

No idea what the ikea furniture is supposed to be

Also no way could they be filming with their left hand, the angle is way off unless they’re holding a stick or tripod. It looks like someone in the passenger seat is filming.

I can understand your first point, but being sexist condescending assholes seems to be more of a thing men do, and obviously this was experienced by enough women for someone to coin the term and have it become an immediately relatable experience. You could definitely rephrase it to be something less sexist like “condes-plaining” (work in progress), but it loses the inherent nature of pointing out that it is something women are experiencing from men. I also agree with you that overuse of the term would be bad. I think I disagree that the term is being overused. Every term is used incorrectly in places. I know this is anecdotal, but I haven’t seen or experienced the term being used inaccurately all that often.

For the second half of our discussion, I think I should clarify that I was talking from a one-on-one conversational perspective, not a lecture hall, group discussion, or a friend group. I think those environments are very different and while perception also matters there, it would be a different kind of discussion. A one-one conversation like a gym trainer calling out someone with bad form could go like: “You know, that’s terrible form, here’s how you do it the right way” versus “Hey, excuse me, I noticed your form isn’t safe and could lead to injury. Would you like some help?” I think both ways get the point across, one of them is a lot nicer than the other.

I believe your communication should pander to the person you’re addressing, if you are trying to have a constructive conversation. You can disagree with someone and present it in about a million different ways - some of them might be offensive to that person, others might be well-received. The reason I mentioned that my words may be condescending to some people was not out of worry or fear of offending you, but as a point that different people expect communication in different ways.

I think you’re doing the same thing subconsciously, you’re saying things in a concise and respectful way such that you believe will be perceived well by me. You could say the same thing in ways I’d find incredibly rude, and we would not be having a constructive discussion. Now if someone finds what you’re saying offensive when you’re not trying to be offensive, then you can either rephrase yourself or accept that you won’t be able to effectively communicate with that person one-on-one.

I think every field has things that are pretty universally understood to be basic. If you and I are in computer science and I’m explaining how a keyboard works to you unsolicited, that’s pretty basic stuff and I would be mansplaining.
