For those like me who are not familiar with rapper feuds or sex offender locator apps, this is the rapper Drake’s house shown as containing many registered sex offenders in an image posted by Kendrick Lamar. Just to save some googling.

I think the modern pushback comes from people who get their understanding of technology from science fiction. SF has always (mis)used AI to mean sapient computers.

why is that

For those wondering, this is a reference to the lyrics of A Day In The Life by the Beatles, which starts “I read the news today, oh boy”

game?

yes, although I was really hoping for someone to ask which game that is, so I could reply “game?”

Another commenter pointed out that if you induce this through repetition it’s called semantic satiation, but the more general case is known as jamais vu. It sounds like yours isn’t caused by semantic satiation. Brains are weird and often do things like this for completely benign reasons or no reason at all. Having said that, Doctor Google (who we all know not to trust) suggests causes can include epilepsy or migraine.

In any case, it might be worth looking into, if it’s something that’s causing difficulties for you. In general if it’s some specific medical cause a neurologist would be the relevant specialist but your primary care physician or general practitioner would be your first port of call and might be able to recommend further course of action.

The second paragraph to the right of the photo talks about how our perception of these things changes with time, and while it seems shocking to us now it would once have been taken for granted. It was a big news story at the time and was not taken for granted.

Edit: I guess my wording was a bit off. I meant to say that it was not within the cultural norms of the time. As worded, it sounds like I’m discussing its frequency rather than its level of acceptance - that’s my bad.

Apparently this was actually a pretty significant case, as it was publicised at the time and led to the creation of laws setting the minimum age for marriage at 16. Although, wikipedia claims he was 24 rather than 22. I feel like this suggests this wasnt really the norm at the time the way the textbook suggests. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marriage_of_Charlie_Johns_and_Eunice_Winstead

You people make me sick.

A toast sandwich consists of only these following items. Bread. More bread (usually toasted). This entire community consist of “double-deckers”. Almost every “toast” sandwich i see on here has other spreads added to it. The fact that this community is called “toastsandwich” is nothing short of utter blasphemy. Let me start out by saying I have nothing against double-deckers, I just hate their association with sandwiches that are not toast sandwiches. Adding toast to your butter sandwich? It’s called a butter double-decker. Totally different. Want to add mayo and some pretentious bread crumbs with salt? I don’t know what the hell you’d call that but it’s not a toast sandwich. I would be more than willing to wager I’ve eaten more toast sandwiches in my 21 years than any of you had in your entire lives. I have one almost everyday and sometimes more than just one sandwich. Want to personalize your toast sandwich? Use a mix of different toastedness levels or use sourdough or french bread. But if you want to add some olive oil and take a picture of it, make your own community entitled “double-deckers” because that is not a fucking toast sandwich. I’m not a religious man nor am I anything close to a culinary expert. But as a bland white british male I am honestly the most passionate person when it comes to toast sandwiches and water soup. All of you foodies stay the hell away from our toast sandwiches and stop associating your double-decker sandwiches with them. Yet again, it is utter blasphemy and it rocks me to the core of my pale being. Shit, I stopped lurking after 3 years and made this account for the sole purpose of posting this. I’ve seen post after post of peoples “toast sandwiches” all over lemmy and it’s been driving me insane. The moment i saw this community this morning I finally snapped. Hell, I may even start my own community just because I know this one exists now.

You god damn heretics. Respect the toast sandwich and stop changing it into whatever you like and love it for it what it is. Or make your damn double-decker sandwich and call it for what it is. A double-decker.

It’s been forever since I read it, but I think the cool suit was covering himself in sandtrout, which eventually led to the wormy fascism?

I did think more or less the same thing on seeing this meme though, in that my first reaction was “wait, wasn’t that God Emperor?”
