That’s a rollercoaster.
NeptuneOrbit@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your country's "coals to Newcastle"?2·1 year agoI don’t know. My coworker just said that owls are a symbol of wisdom, and Athens (historically) is the center of wisdom.

Follow up, maybe someone should make a community to share the best of newspaper advices columns?
Slate has a pretty good one called Dear Prudence. I used to enjoy NYT The Ethicist but haven’t really read it frequently in years.
It’s pulled from a dumb shit post. But yes I could have updated YOU’RE to YOUR
NeptuneOrbit@lemmy.worldto [Migrated, see pinned post] Casual Conversation @lemm.ee•I want to thank everyone on Lemmy.English4·1 year agoIs this the OG? Did the text originate from something in literature? Or did someone actually create such a beautiful thing out of thin air. Asking for a friend.
NeptuneOrbit@lemmy.worldto DM Academy@lemmy.world•Help me find logic in this thing I got myself into.3·1 year agoMaybe the museum has the power to create a duplicate in exchange for the original. The original has value for research and display, and the duplicate has use for adventurers.

NeptuneOrbit@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What did you get told as a child that you realised was a lie as you got older?7·1 year agoCancer didn’t exist until the very modern age. Evolution is fake, a conspiracy. Jews are basically Christians who don’t know if Jesus is the savior or not. I could keep going.
Learning basic process and facts about government is step one.
NeptuneOrbit@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are your thoughts on restricting children’s access to pornography online?83·2 years agoThis is a highly cherry picked set of conclusions from the study. Sex Ed would probably, as the authors note, negate these negative aspect of accessible porn.
NeptuneOrbit@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are your thoughts on restricting children’s access to pornography online?173·2 years agoThings the study finds hard to do:
- define pornography. That will make it hard to legislate.
- they conclude it leads to unsafe sex practices but that also sex needs to be taught to kids. Probably not news republican legislatures want to hear.
- not really a link to crime
Also worth noting this is one study. In Australia.
Not saying the study should be discounted. But it’s not really a clear support for government intervention.
NeptuneOrbit@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are your thoughts on restricting children’s access to pornography online?262·2 years agoIt’s almost like porn has been available, to varying degrees, to youth, for decades if not centuries. Even discounting all the good arguments like “small government” and “think of the kids is a dumb excuse to curtail privacy”… You have to ask, what’s the goal?
Keeping kids away from porn? Why is that an important goal for the government? Is it one the government is even capable of doing? At what age is porn OK? 16? 18? 21? Never? Did you ever look at porn when you were in high school? Do you regret it?
Is there any real research that porn is corrosive to a 16 year old? I mean we can’t even pass simple, popular gun legislation because the NRA swears up and down we don’t know “for sure” if it will save more than a couple lives. We can’t even have an EPA that enforces laws, while millions of people suffer from asthma and other stuff that kills them.
Chef feat!! For sure.
