  • Ooohh!! I don’t think I’ve ever heard that word used in any context/conjugation other than the specific phrase

    Spoiler

    "I dub thee ‘Sir whatsit’ "

    Or maybe that same sentence in past tense (“dubbed”).

    I’ve definitely never heard it conjugated in present continuous. But it stands to reason that it would be a word.

    Thanks!

    Solved correctly in Copilot then copied it across wrong. Had to do a lot of googling to figure out what went into blue, and only got purple from the leftovers.

    Assuming this is real (it’s not)

    Proof?

    Subtlety and nuance are great in art

    They can be. But if that was the intention, that’s what the teacher should have said. “Dial it back” is a far cry from “your art would be more powerful with a more subtle message”. And anyway, sometimes the artist doesn’t want to be subtle and that’s ok too. Subtle art can be easy to misinterpret. Look at all the chadbros who idolise the characters in Fight Club.

    I’m happy to see you’re not talking in the 3rd person anymore though.

    Pretty sure they just didn’t have reason to refer to themselves in that comment. They’ve always used normal pronouns for other people.

    Americans lost abortion rights because of the piss-weak Democratic party relying on a shaky legal foundation to keep them in place rather than legislating it themselves at any of the times they controlled the Senate, House, and White House under Carter, Clinton, Obama, or Biden. All of whome had a period where that was the case. It’s not feminists of any sort that are to blame.
