See, that’s what the app is perfect for.

Sounds perfect Wahhhh, I don’t wanna

If I ever have a live-in partner, or wife, I’m not sure I’d want to share the same bedroom. For a few reasons:

1) Sleep quality. “Brain scans have also shown that couples who sleep together wake one another continually. Next morning, their stress hormones are higher while their cognitive ability is lower. 1” Seriously, how could I sleep well if someone else is moving, shifting, and getting out of my bed? It’s not like I can use Sleep As Android in that case ….

2) Her sense of style might conflict with my taste! It might get messy! How am I suppose dance around in my undergarments to 80s hits in the morning  if someone is watching? I mean, I guess she could watch, but I doubt anyone would want to!

in conclusion, I am likely to remain 5evar alone

Just fall asleep in the warm embrace of each other’s arms, then have your butler and maid servants gently carry you to your separate sleeping quarters, where you can awaken in the morning refreshed and clear headed!

#doesn’t everyone do this

It’s always weird when I see these reblog posts from an account that’s been deactivated  It’s like the ghosts of Tumblrs past showing us all that social media, like life, is ephemeral and fleeting.  Someone arrives, posts for a bit, and then disappears into the ether, never to be seen or heard from again.

Not me.  

I’ve been sentenced here by the government of Earth for my many sins, as punishment.

so when are they going to throw the asexuals out of the military

“Never distracted by the baser instincts of lust or love, asexual aromantics are the perfect potential soldiers,” the man said to the gathered audience, activating his next presentation slide.  “My company has developed a new generation three training program based on the analysis of double-A characteristics, and so far our test subjects have had great success.”

“But where will we get these asexual aromantics?”  Asked a suited man in the audience.

“My company has arranged to purchase an old web 2.0 company, called Tumblr…”

I would favour the transition towards “henchmen” if it weren’t gendered. “Henchpeople” just doesn’t sound right.

asocratesgonemad

Agreed. I think I’m going to go with “henchmen” for the time being, because my interest in language-neutering has frankly been long worn away.

My brief search for a gender-neutral version that was still #the aesthetic returned “cronies” and “toadies”, but I think those would make me sound more liks Richard Nixon than Doctor Doom.

“Underlings” also occured to me, but that puts one in mind of a Dilbert-esque CEO. Hmph.

I reiterate the excellent option of just going with “hench”

Although I am also currently considering henchgirl positions

argumate

Henchlings! Because underlings sounds like some kind of exotic lingerie.

In my old organization they were just referred to as “personnel”, because true evil is a faceless and impersonal, like a force of nature.

I’m on my own now, though, and there just isn’t a good word in English for a crew of repurposed salvaged mass-production gynoids held together by duct-tape and deep elastomer patches.  I know a few good words for it in Channish, but it just doesn’t have the same ring when you know the audience doesn’t understand it and never will.

can’t understand why people spell unusual names wrong, wouldn’t an unusual name prompt you to slow down and doublecheck it?

mitigatedchaos

all names that get fewer than NAME_HITS hits per NAME_TIMEFRAME get purged from the cache.

this is in the spec, Argumate.  you are supposed to know this

just because the software is buggy and produces unexpected behaviors doesn’t mean you can just roll your eyes at the legacy code and ignore the documentation

“Dude, how many levels of Woke are you on?”

“Earth belongs to the Neanderthals.  We homo sapiens have a duty to use our advanced science to resurrect them from trace DNA found in isolated tooth fossils, then voluntarily go extinct as a species, returning the planet to its true, destined inheritors.”

“Haha, nice, bro.”
