If people could stop centering their entire lives around a mediocre piece of entertainment and letting themselves being spoonfed art in the form of capitalist “Franchises”, maybe people like Rowling wouldnt get this much undeserved attention.

Well, German has almost as many vowels as English and we’re doing just fine I think. On the other hand, French orthography is similarly fucked up although it’s a direct descendent of Latin and they don’t even have any weird sounds they can’t write concisely. So I think its just a matter of trying.
The english language badly needs an orthography reform

Garbage take. Just fill it into a glass jar at home. Nobody cares about the 0.03g of flour lost leaking out during transport.
Even a broken clock has a justified true belief about the time twice a day, as they say.

Translation (trying to conserve the odd wording):
Rainbows prove that there is a dome located above us.
For a rainbow to appear, one needs something that can reflect light. A dome can do precisely that. If you try to create a rainbow, without something reflective being near, the rainbow won’t be displayed.
Those “people with the best content” getting paid through ad money had lead to lots of people optimizing their content not for quality but for ad friendliness and mass compatibility.

Nice liar’s paradox you constructed there.

Would be. Or i could just argue that the prevalent notion of health is too focused on physiological issues, and that in the recent efforts to recognize depression as a valid illness, there is a tendency to reframe it as a neurological disease, rather than validating mental issues as such. As far as I’m informed the neurological processes involved in depression and the effect of psychotropic drugs are not well understood, so there isn’t even a basis there to determine what causes what.
Hot take: Depression is not actually a primarily neurological disease so you can’t expect to cure it by fixing something in your brain
This is just a worse version. Repost the one with the fruitwave vibes
The thing that’s wrong here is that people use/trust a proprietary web service as if it was a part of public infrastructure.
Files are soo outdated. The user should not have to worry about “Files”. What even is a " Directory"? Your nudes are on some guys computer in california but the world is in your hand. there is an app for everything, just use the apps, go with the flow, look at lots of ads, buy a tesla, tell your dirty secrets to google bard — everything is intuitive…
Maybe I wasn’t clear, I don’t think calling out Rowling’s shitty views is part of the problem. What I was trying to point at was that fandoms are just a means of marketing and people are too uncritical about how capitalism interferes with art. People are getting steered towards “investing” time and attention into something that isn’t really worth it, and the author, unable to follow up the success because she really isn’t that talented, instead clamps on the attention by putting out edgy political statements.
