  • The not so funny meaning of the statement was supposed to be that using female as a noun is usually considered offensive when talking about humans.

    I’m not sure how that or the possible alternative and more amusing interpretation of implying your penis being a female of it’s species, deserves being called an asshole.

    Also I don’t think I understood your second sentence because to my knowledge just under 50% of humans would be expected to have a dick which is notably less than everyone.



  • Given that apart from memes about porn I have never heard of it even supposedly happening it seems unnecessary to make a generalized assumption. That’s my realistic take, same goes for all the arguably more interesting polyamorous relationship constellations I’ve thought of that are however otherwise unrelated.

    I also may have forgotten that step siblings are already long gone. Gosh, what has this conversation become.




  • Wait, why exactly? I can see it being a problem in some cases but I wouldn’t assume that it is generally a problem. The way I see it it is just two people who are loved ones of a common other (which is not uncommon in polyamorous relationships as far as I know) and the power dynamics would be dependent on those relationships, of which I would assume there is no inherently more powerful one.

    The acceptable age ranges do imply something icky between the parent and step parent though.

    I should also note that I have not had step parents or children at any point in my life so far and may be unaware of otherwise obvious things.


  • The Wikipedia article says that it was associated with the LGBTQ and trans community as early as 2020, while IKEA only leaned into that as of 2021. You appear to be correct, I personally didn’t really notice them popping among my friends’ until 2022 which was afterwards, so that is likely why I assumed that marketing is a large part of what kickstarted it.

    I am not straight, nor do I have siblings. Rationally I don’t really see why there would be an issue with siblings having sex recreationally without producing children, which wouldn’t even be an issue with step siblings. With step parents the age difference might also be acceptable. Edit: not really, since the age difference between the parent and step parent would then likely be an issue. Also I intentionally did not exclude the possibility that it could be an issue. But the other power dynamics associated with step parents are obviously not negligible

    Someone recently posted a Wikipedia link to an effect where people growing up together don’t feel sexual attraction to each other, which is the primary reason why I assume it is a taboo (I used to think it was because of the negative health effects for incestuous children), but so long as all involved parties consent I see no issue.


  • I believe the implication is that all humans at the company have been laid off. And PageRank was not neural network to my knowledge but I also don’t work at Google so I won’t say it’s impossible that they have been lying about that for some reason. At some point they started adding adverts and sorting results using a neural network, which one could argue likely works similar to the input of an LLM.

    The implication of the second is however that the content of the pages displayed as search results are being summarized by AI while incorporating advertising, making it impossible to separate the advert from the rest.
