Nobody knows, a lot of people say they were lovers or some shit but that reads to me like second opinion bias. Because history studies for decades ignored the existence of gay people there’s now this reaction of people who have decided that every single man in history that had a close relationship with another man is automatically gay.

It reads as people running facefirst into toxic masculinity while trying to avoid it. I’m a straight guy and I’m close with my male friends. I can confidently state the closest non familial relationship I have is with my two best friends one of whom is a man. I aint never gonna bang him though, and I think people who assume any guy who shows affection for other men is gay re-enforces that “STRAIGHT MEN WILL NEVER SHOW EMOTION!” bullshit that fucks people’s heads up all the time

I mean have you spoken to the average American? No wonder all the researchers are immigrants, your average American is just stupider than the average person in almost every other country

same. At this point I read Peter Watts books and go “WOW Cool Future!” because at least that has cyborgs and brain implants that eliminate the need for sleep

Unless I get to eat one and they taste super good it aint worth it. I can pet elephants already and they are way cooler because they’re grey and grey is a fun color for an animal to be

Fat load of good it’s done, we don’t even have brain computer interfaces or implantable drug glands or people with Iridescent skin because of gene editing

AI is impossible. like one individual cockroach is smarter than the best computers in the entire world. It’s all a scam to rope in money from nerds who think sci fi is real

Before reading the article, i just have to say that technology has advanced hugely in the past 20 hears,

how? society has not moved and inch since the 80’s. if technology was as transformative as it was in the past we’d see the 80’s as a hopelessly antiquated time abyss instead of the last time mass culture created anything
