Regarding the "they're not children, they're 15" comment, would it surprise you to know that Israel's "right to return" laws are making it a safe haven for pedophiles fleeing conviction?

It's been a while but my understanding is that most "ritual cannibalism" to honor the dead was stuff like preserving strips of human jerky from a recently passed corpse to gnaw on when you missed them, like it was a symbolic thing, you weren't helping yourselves to bowls of Uncle Ben
Still pretty hosed up but not the sort of cannibalism most people imagine on hearing the term

Yes endocannibalism is afaik the majority of cannibalism and is usually something like that, it's the appropriate thing in the culture that practices it, and there isn't really a question of the deceased not having consented. It's like saying an open casket funeral is barbaric and brutal because it's a huge gathering of people gawking at a recently deceased body. It's almost like context matters. In some cultures more or less is consumed, I think some even just eat a bit of ashes. Of course this is all much less lurid and sensational than the other kind of cannibalism.

Also at the same time the colonial powers of Europe were spreading horror stories of savage native cannibals to justify colonialism, they were eating medicine made from and using paint made with the looted corpses of the Egyptian dead.

Anthropological facts aside, I think they have to understand there is no world in which it is a bright idea to go on twitter and get all 'well, actually' about cannibalism. I already kind of regret making this post lol. Anthropology is interesting and it's good to learn about!

Oh the twitter take is bonkers insane and I'd actually forgotten the full original tweet because i was distracted by anthropology chat lmao. I just had in my head that they were clarifiying there is another type of cannibalism that is endogamous and not a product of violence or remotely similar to the common mental image of what it means when you say a people practice cannibalism, and should have paged back to refresh my memory because loving yikes.

It is worthwhile to clarify that no one is in danger from the (for instance) Amahuaca people and they are not 'savages' butchering each other, in light of hundreds of years of propaganda about indigenous peoples. That... Is not remotely what that person was doing.

I'm pretty sure that his whole thing about psychiatric medication is because one of his various ex-wives or -children got therapy, was finally able to self-actualize as a result, and immediately left him.

One of his children came out as trans and cut him entirely out of their life, and Grimes dated a trans person after leaving him. So yea, his whole anti-trans thing took over his tiny brain because he's a petty little bitch who can't accept that they cut his cancerous rear end out of their lives.

One of my coworkers heard my partner was going to get an epidural and immediately started on a rant about getting this baby started on chemicals. He also has a rant about how baldness isn't because of genetics it's because of the chemicals in our shampoo and conditioner clogging our pores and killing the hair follicles. Oh and if you drink milk straight from a cow it'll cure lactose intolerance.

In the end we didn't get an epidural because like her dad this kid has zero patience and said it's time here I come

my wife due to outside peer pressure was all gung ho about no drugs during delivery.

she made it eh about 4 hours into labor before i was like "hey babe you want literally the best magical drugs that you are ever allowed to have legally?"

she seemed a lot more chill after that.

now my kid has 7 toes on each foot and can speak to the dead. but eh?
