But [space][endash][space] is longer than just [emdash]. How is the proposed solution any better?

It’s neither: this is just basic facts about Star Wars.

Which franchise?

I recall criticism of executive pay before but had not seen allegations of poor workers’ wages, which is really shocking stuff. Thanks.

scum balls

How so?

Sure but what I am struggling to understand here is that these sets of communication elements must have been generated in the first place by the animals that use them, so this resolves nothing really. Is there something I am missing here?

I am sure that it is not, but more kind words on the Internet are always appreciated.

I don’t have a term for that, but either way, equating anyone who has played music in Israel with being a Zionist and therefore, a Nazi is childish and obscures actual Nazism. There is real fascism and racism in Israeli society but it is not true that it’s somehow caused by Thom Yorke.

I certainly agree that putting pressure on Israel since the grotesque over-reaction to the October 7 attacks is appropriate. I can see the argument for just never playing a concert there, but I think having played a concert in Israel ever does not qualify someone as a “Nazi”. That’s preposterous. Israel is presently in the process of an active and highly violent genocide against Gazans. Prior to this, public policy has been generally oppressive and heinous against Palestinians, sometimes more or less so.

Nazis? I don’t recall any of them advocating for Nazism.

“Everyone signed to the same record label as any band that includes Thom Yorke is a Zionist and therefore a Nazi.”

Radiohead is Zionist trash

??? The band has other members…

Red, though? Blood. The colour might vary a bit, but nowhere as much. Black? Soot. White? Clouds, chalk. It’s simply easier to generate points of reference for those.

Too true and makes sense, but what confuses and vexes me is the idea that “yellow” would predate “blue”: Blue things include bodies of water and the sky (assuming the azure/cyan and royal blue/standard blue are the same color), but what important thing is there that is yellow that we need to talk about so urgently? Blue comes up with some foods, but it is rare and other natural phenomena like colors of a night sky, but I’m struggling to think of the reason why we needed “yellow” prior to that. Any conjecture?

I think the point is to masturbate. I don’t know that there is a binary between being a sex criminal or masturbating.

One chapter is about typography, but the rest is also interesting if you care about design generally.

This is elder abuse.

the Committee saw no pressure to introduce a phonetic system for Mandarin

This is particularly interesting to me: where did you get this?

Thanks for the thorough comment.

Easy/hard in which aspect? And how do we even measure it?

I’m confused as to if you read the article, since you point out Chinese characters later. Did you?
