  • I wouldn’t be surprised if there were something about different types of wigs that make them hotter than just having natural hair. That said, I’m not sure we have people with subject matter experience in the thread here.

    Like this thread over at the wigs subreddit is already talking about terms I’m not familiar with, so that seems like a promising place to start.

    I’m on lemmy because I disagree with the ownership direction at Reddit but they have an enviable user base in terms of size and diversity.



  • I’ve seen people say there’s good weird and bad weird, and if you don’t mind calling yourself weird it’s probably the good kind.

    As for calling maga people weird I think it’s effective because their whole deal is about vibes. “We’re strong, we’re smart” and it really bothers them to be perceived otherwise. It’s also not something you can “debate”. Either people accept it or they don’t. What are you going to say “no, I’m not weird”? Sure thing buddy.






  • Every business’s biggest expense is labor. Skilled labor costs more. The people in charge like it when you save money.

    I think it’s wrong. But only because the interests of the people who own the machines and businesses diverge from the worker’s interests. I’d like to see more worker cooperatives. If the workers own the machines, then it’s good when things are automated.

    I also don’t believe anything will ever be truly automated, or that it’s a good idea to try.

    All that to say we don’t have to resort to an explanation of “managers must hate engineers” to understand why they would want to eliminate positions.













  • You and the other commenter are right, I don’t expect birds to be like “let’s both chirp and make a minor third interval”. I’m sure if they harmonized it would be for whatever sounds right based on how they evolved and learned.

    What I’m getting at is it’s not harmonizing if they just happen to be making sounds at the same time. For the purposes of my question harmonizing is when we’re intentionally making two distinct tones simultaneously.

    So two birds that are just chirping along their individual songs and they happen to overlap so they each chirp complimentary notes isn’t what I’m interested in. I want to know if any animals mean to harmonize.
