Is that a device that doesnt allow you to charge it other than handccrank? Or does it have both? What sort of play time you get on some crankling?

I dont mind being on your side. I'm just pointing out your a piece of shit who does an even worse job at arguing for their side...

@PonyPanda

As much as I side with palestine given the history your use of racial slurrs and clear bias you have completely derailed **any** hope you had of making a coherent argument.. and this is from someone who technically agrees with your choice of sides.

@LouisIngenthron @freemo Thinking about that aspect, it also requires a wide number of species to become cute by natural selection as a result of human hunting. Which is a relatively recent thing and certainly not at a global scale.

More likely because there are common mammalian ancestors, hence facial morphologies, that kin affinity is lurking in the background. Many cute creatures have also been selectively bred over thousands of years, since their first domestication as useful tools.

@freemo I'd say the genetic disposition would be relevant for the timespan humanity didn't specialize. If most people don't see the transition from animal to meat, i think the effects can easily be ignored, and humans are good at ignoring stuff they don't like and cannot change easily.

So the question would be: did primitive humans find animals cute?

PSA to other folks who also frequently schedule meetings across the Atlantic: DST ends this Sunday in Europe but it doesn’t end until the following Sunday in the US—because if we’re going to fuck with the clocks let’s maximize the chaos and fuck with them at different times, sure, why not.

@mur2501 yes indeed, which is why it is important to keep skeptical as you play with these ideas.

@mur2501 There have been a few amazing coincidences, even when i played with the idea myself. Most can be written off in various ways though.

@mur2501 Nothing particularly comes to mind except maybe some people claiming they are psychic in one way or another.

@mur2501 most qualities, even diseases, are both a strengtha nd a weakness in some ways

@jtb Slugs I can find cute... most worms I do not.. earth worms can be a bit cute and there are a few exceptions. But most worms are gross.

@freepeoplesfreepress if destroying things and eating allmy food was enough for me to not find something cute then I wouldnt find human babies cute either :)

@bonifartius I find everything in this pciture cute except for the top right human

@LouisIngenthron there is nothing remotely scientific about such a poll, and yea there will be bias for sure.
